■概要(Overview)
現在はピアノを練習しています。
今回も「これなら弾ける!!ジャズ・ピアノ」という本に載っていた、
北島直樹さんが編曲した「Fly me to the moon」にチャレンジしました。
まだまだ力が抜けていないし色々とミスっていますが、今日は満月が綺麗なのでこの曲をアップしますわv(^^)
もっと上手くなったら、再挑戦したいですわん(^^)

I am currently practicing the piano. 
This time, I challenged myself with Naoki Kitajima's arrangement of "Fly Me to the Moon" from the book "I Can Play This!! Jazz Piano". 
Although I'm still a bit tense and made some mistakes, 
I'm uploading this piece because the full moon is beautiful tonight. v(^^) 
I hope to try again when I get better. (^^)

Cover - Fly me to the moon(Arranged by Naoki Kitajima)

My Dear,
Find what you love and let it kill you
Let it drain from you your all.
Let it cling onto your back and weigh you down into eventual nothingness.
Let it kill you, and let it devour your remains.
For all things will kill you
both slowly and fastly.
but it’s much better to be killed by a lover
falsely yours, 

Henry Charles Bukowski

Years back,I saw the above stanza on the internet...  According to Bukowski "experts" he actually  did not write this...so idk ....the author origin is a mystery....
so for this piece,
I lifted the first line but made a more positive song as I wanted the "kill" to really to be  more of a metamorphosis...a change..a salvation..a call to pursue your passion  without delay as our time left on this mortal coil  is unknown.... So keep on creating  keep on playing ...find what you love...

                            
       Find What You Love, Let It Kill You

Find what you love, let it kill you                                                            
Let it devour your senses                                                                      
Engulf and embrace your resolve    
                                                     
Find what you love, let it save you
Your sweet resurrection 
Reframe and regroup then dissolve 

Fade away but don’t fade to black                                                         
Fly to the orange, the red                                                                     
Like Icarus into the sun
Take a breath, there's no turning back 
Each moment a memory, minute
Lean on the learned ones.

Find what you love, let it kill you
Be born from the ashes
In purpose and pain comes the light 

Find what you love and let it change you
Don't be afraid of the mockers or mourners 
Who pass in the night 

Run away, but don’t run too far
Your hand on the rock
Like Sisyphus, now the moment's begun
Take a breath, it's all that you are 
You feel it growing, yearning
Live like the ancient ones.

Find what you love...Find what you love…

This could be our last stand                                                                     
American Bandstand 
The Alamo of your life
A Soundcloud crucifix                                                                             
No need to surrender                                                                        
Are you a player
Or just a pretender 
Another suspect device                                                                           
Feel the clock inside you tick 
                                                               
Find what you love, let it kill you 
Death the divider
The boatman is seeking his toll
Find what you love, let it take you
Gone solo, gone swimming
Swift currents, lose control

Walk along the edge of the knife 
Always counting, comparing your silver
There is so much more to be won
You're only floating on the surface of life
Try to dive deeper, dream away
Let the day go undone.

Find what you love...Find what you love..

Find What You Love, Let It Kill You

Cast of characters:
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– Taylor T5z acoustic guitar, Tom Anderson Custom T electric guitar, Gibson Earle Scruggs banjo, Eastwood MandoCaster mix, mastering, production, and composition
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- organ
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums 
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Fender Precision four string bass, played with a plectrum 
Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark – harmonica, jaw harp, timpany, hambone percussion, and production editing     
This song began with Stephen, who recorded it on his acoustic guitar and bass to a programmed drum track a few months ago. We were all thrilled to work on it, even though it sat in BandLab as a project for almost a month before Stephen separated the tracks, thus allowing us to trickle in our parts. JJ was first to jump on it, because he could before the tracks were separated, as his part is completely his idea. He added the organ that really set up the entire sound of both dominant sections of the song. 
  Ken was first up to the project once the tracks were replaceable, making the wild, driving beat his own. Inspired by both JPJ and Michael Ivins, Josh laid down his bass line, trying to match Ken's energy. Last, but not least, Mark jumped in with the rumbling timpani. He also added the flavorful harmonica, and unique jaw harp you hear throughout, as well. 
  At that point, Stephen also got the idea to add the hambone percussion at the very end of the song, which we all consider a treat, and after showing us how it's done, Mark volunteered his percussion skills to give it a go. Stephen wasn't done with it, though, and still had some magic to sprinkle. He went in and added the howling electric guitar you hear prominently in the second main section. Also, he added the tempting intro with his acoustic guitar and electric mandolin that looks like a Telecaster guitar. 
  Once it was in the bag, we thought it appropriate for our master mixer Stephen to put it to bed, which he did in his always expert manner. Mark did help with the production, though, as he's very good with editing and spotting mistakes that need to be corrected.
  This is a gift from Stephen to all of us, and you, too. It took a lot of teamwork to make the dream work, as always for Eclectic Collective. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

TITLE: HELL ZONE
_____________________________________________________

LYRICS: 
(Verse 1)
Woke up choking on the flames of dread
Dreams burned out
All the colors bled
Shadows creeping
They’re under my skin
This hell zone’s pulling me back in

(Verse 2)
No escape
Just a looping track
A one-way street
No turning back
The air’s so thick it could break my bones
Life’s chaos screaming through the stones

(Chorus)
Hell zone
No time to rest
Heart's a riot
Pounding my chest
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
Living on the edge of a landslide

(Verse 3)
Voices echo like a broken bell
Laughter’s gone
Replaced by a yell
The clock’s a joker
Playing its tricks
Time slips by in shattered ticks

(Bridge)
This chaos cuts like a sharpened blade
Every step feels like a bad trade
The sky’s on fire
The ground’s a maze
Lost in the smoke
I’m stuck in a haze

(Chorus)
Hell zone
No time to rest
Heart's a riot
Pounding my chest
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
Living on the edge of a landslide

Nowhere To Run
