My first solo piece for a while. An uplifting tune to celebrate the coming of springtime in the northern hemisphere, released on 20th March 2021 to coincide with the vernal equinox.

Thank you so much Gaz G for mastering my song and adding real drums. This is appreciated and I feel the song has got a new depht and better dynamic.  I feel the change is massive and fantastic. As I am a Norwegian I know my enthusiasm may be a little humble, but  I hope that you sense I am superhappy, because I really am. Thank you :) :)

First of all: This is probably my first uptempo. I also was inspired by 70-80's sound. I played around with effects and sounds.. It was fun :)! I hope you like it
Lyrics:
I got this idea, it's gonna be big
I dont need to tell you.
I have this moment, you wont be believe
I dont need to tell you

You heard it all before,I dont wanna say no more.
I say "what if dreams come true"
you say "Your eyes are forever blue"

There is no reason to stop the dreaming
There is no truth in stop believing.
This world is rough, don't judge me by default.
Maybe I'm lost, it's not my fault

Dont turn your back on me, I'm calling your name
Theres no need to fail me
I'm gonna make it, I am what I am..
Theres no need to fail me

You heard it all before,I dont wanna say no more.
I say "what if dreams come true"
you say "Your eyes are forever blue"

There is no reason to stop the dreaming
There is no truth in stop believing.
This world is rough, don't judge me by default.
Maybe I'm lost, it's not my fault
This world is rough, don't judge me by default.
Maybe I'm lost, it's not my fault

Delussion is tough , it's not my fault

Forever Blue v2 featuring Gaz G

It’s closing in the beauty and the panic
Growing nearer I pray circles around it
And Behind the purple branches
Moving shadows linger can’t see past them

But there her face is shining 
So much warmth surrounding here it’s frightening 
Hurts to love you
Always adore you
The One who gave and formed you I’ll let lead

Wisteria woods
Creation in the chaos
Beautiful one I am yours you are mine

It’s opening the mystery the madness
Perfect shapes are forming in the sadness
And behind your eyes my dear 
Reflections of pure love cast out fear

And there His purpose showing
Even here in darkness light is glowing
Hurts to love you
No one above you
The One who made life for you I’ll let lead

Wisteria woods
Creation in the chaos
Beautiful one I am yours you are mine
Wisteria woods
I’m so grateful I am so lost
Thank you for this spark to guide me through the dark

Through the dark
Swaying purple branches
Perfect love cast out fear
Wisteria woods

Wisteria Woods

After Dark

AMBROSIA COAST

Driving down the coast road
Looking for Ingrid’s hat
It doesn’t matter if we find the beach or not 
With it raining like that

Checking the important ones
Went out before midnight
I’d like to think we could be either in or out
To hit the waves like that

Oh can we do it?
Oh can we do it tonight?
Oh can we do it?
Can we do it tonight?

They came in in inflatables
But they weren’t looking for Ingrid’s hat
We spent some money dressing up the corpse
No-one had learned a move like that

Checking the important ones
Went out before midnight
I’d like to think we could be either in or out
To hit the waves like that

Oh can we do it?
Can we do it tonight?
Oh can we do it?
Can we do it tonight?

But we don’t wanna see where the birdie goes

Give me emotion (bow-wow-wow)
Lend me the potion (bow-wow-wow)
Rub me in lotion (bow-wow-wow)
Give me the motion (bow-wow-wow)
We need ambrosia
Because it’s cosier
Feed the gods with that bowl 
Feed the gods with that bowl, there...

Driving down the coast road 
Looking for Ingrid’s hat
It doesn’t matter if we find the beach or not 
With it raining like that

Checking the important ones
Went out before midnight
I’d like to think we could be either in or out
To hit the waves like that

Oh can we do it?
But can we do it tonight? (bow-wow-wow)
Oh can we do it?
Can we do it tonight? 
Bow-wow-wow

lyrics:

if you listen hard, you can hear them
their stories, their secrets, their scars...
if you touch them, you'll realise what we have

they pre-date us...
they will out live us...

giants give us life - do you know what that means?
giants, they give us life - d'you really know what that means?

they stand tall and they're wiser
than you and i can comprehend.
if you embrace them, you'll realise what we have...

they breathe in for us...
they breathe out for us...

giants give us life - do you know what that means?
giants, they give us life... d'you really know what that means?

Giants

Me and Hideo rock-in' it out, good old spontaneous jam style, in fun-fun-fun mode. Nothing's better than a live jam...I l-i-v-e for it! In case you might be wondering, the far off distant psychedelic vocals are in fact deliberate...I tried to create the picture that we are up in the cosmic realm among the planets and stars jamming it up oh so blissfully, trying to please the Gods, the universe and all who dwell within. We are physically so far away from one another yet spiritually, we are so near and ready...ready to give you the instant magical vibrational feeling. At least we hope we're doing that. The intox-hypno-trance vocals are actually me telling Hideo how excited I am to be jamming with him....jamming to his super charged up kit-percussion! From the first moment I heard Hideo play his drums, I was completely gone as in stoned out of my mind. We're both feeling happy high elated in the Cosmos so please do come along and join us in our Happy Hap-Hap number...take your first dose now XOXOXO

Time And Eternity

Late Mid Agers

I was 16 when I arrived in Liverpool, in 1955
I knew no one, thought no one knew me
Till I heard someone call out my name

At the port I was ordered to sign papers
but I could not read or write
Ashamed and weighed down
It said with me all through my life

Leaving Ireland, is my way back to you
I will return very soon
Over the sea that separates you and me

Part of a three track EP, Where lines meet, featuring Dónal Lunny
