Weirdness

Folk

We slide away;
an exercise in falling,
and a ticking clock is watching over.

What won't slide away
is the message that we're holding;
that we're looking out for one another.

OFFICIAL RELEASE 2014.

'LET THE TIDE'


You, you walk with your head hanging low
Alone, and nowhere to go
Nowhere to go

Love, love isn’t always on my side
But you can’t say I’ve never tried
I’ve never tried

Let the tide find it’s way around our feet
As you take my hand and we dance on the floor of the sea
May we never feel the need
To ever surface and breathe
When your heart is cold I’ll pull you close to me

You, you walk with your head hanging low
Alone, and nowhere to go
Nowhere to go

Eyes, eyes that have never looked so kind
Eyes that could hurt you at the same time
I wish you were blind

Let the tide find it’s way around our feet
As you take my hand and we dance on the floor of the sea
May we never feel the need
To ever surface and breathe
When your heart is cold I’ll pull you close to me

Let The Tide - Jason Gladwin

Lyrics:

Your skin it glowed like a neon sign
Drawn in to your bones still luminous
Tubes to bags on a pole at your side 
Couldn't stop our eyes from betraying us

Talking about time
Like it was ever on your side 

They sent you home and let hope ignite
Too young to know what it meant for you
Talk of cells in red and white
We played outside without a clue

So carry on in a straight line
In spite of what you lose
Don't dwell on time that you don't have
Your short life living proof that love, will push us through

I watched the adults faces change
And I knew it was serious
Feigning strength to compensate
For our lack of experience

I never had a place for God
I still don't see where he comes in
Just genetic bad luck and flaws
Took the bravest soul there's ever been

An empty room with curtains drawn
And a feeling so dark
Throbbing ache in our hearts as we dragged on
You showed us how to keep our heads 
Never letting your smile fade
You were only a child,  but you were strong

So carry on in a straight line
In spite of what you lose 
Don't dwell on time that you don't have
Your short life living proof that
You have everything,  if you have anything
Kids to have and years to use
Never out of sight, always in our minds
No ones forgotten you.

Straight Line

Text (deutsch)

Ein trüber Sonntag
voll Regen und Depression
Am trüben Sonntag 
lebe ich nur von Illusion
die langsam verblassen,
denn der Regen wäscht dauernd
den Staub von den Gassen
und das Licht von den Mauern.

Ein trüber Sonntag
voll Frust und Lethargie
Ein trüber Sonntag
Verlust von Sympathie
für ´nen Kater der jammert
und ein Baby, das weint.
In den Pfützen gesammelt
sind die Regentropfen wieder vereint.

(SOLO)

Ein trüber Sonntag
voll Regen und Depression
An so ´nem trüben Sonntag 
kenn´ ich keine Konvention
Ich trink noch ´nen Whisky
und denke daran,
dass das Leben auch manchmal
viel schöner sein kann...

(SOLO)

English Translation (lyrics)

Muddy Sunday

A muddy sunday
full of rain and depression
At a muddy sunday
I live just for an illusion
that´s slow growing fade
like the rain washing out (deathless)
dirt out of the alley
and the light from the stones (brickwalls)

A muddy sunday
filled with frustration and lethargy
a muddy sunday 
lost of sympathy
for a tomcat that´s moaning
and a baby, that cries
pounded in paddles
that old raindrops unites (again)

A muddy sunday
full of rain and depression
on a rainy sunday
I´m objecting any convention
I drink some more Whiskey
thinking about
that life sometimes 
might be much nicer than now

Time

My name is Hans Henning Thomas. I think, I´m more a soundengineer than a songwriter and more a songwriter than really a singer/musician. I started to play guitar in the age of sixteen and had never learned an instrument before. So my first musical influences have been by songwriters, because I firstly payed most of my attention to the lyrics. My musical understanding developed at this time, moving away from home and hanging around with some freaks. At this time I did my first steps by grounding a band. But we were influenced more by the era of the Doors, Rory Gallagher, Neil Young, Jimmy Hendrix,  Pink Floyd or the first Deep Purple cast - while the actual successful music at this time sadly was New German Wave and the like.

Later, after becoming an firstly unemployed physics, I followed my intention and turned my passion to trade, becoming a sound engineer. After all I got a well paid job in an public supported analog sound studio for eight years, recording and teaching some people in sound engineering. Some of my songs, published here, are a result from this era.

Now I´m working again as a physics / engineer, and music became my fervour again. In my life I lived in many different townes, in east and west - Düsseldorf, Braunschweig, Paderborn, Berlin, (1/2 year Tropea, Calabria, Italy), Hagen Westf, Siegburg, Dresden (Neustadt) and now I turned to Rahden, Westf., again, where I live deep in the country in an integral nature reserve. The experiences, I got and the people I met, might be an insperation for my philosophy and my music.

Thanks to the new computer technologies, I was able to build myself a modern home recording studio again, to produce my own and my friends music in a good quality.

My intention for the next time is, to listen to the theme and sound of the nature and turn it into music. The Intro of my song "Wild Ducks Flying" ("Flieg mit dem Wind") is a good example for this project. It came up to me, when I recorded some wild ducks trough my open window, flying over my house. I loaded the samples into a software synthesizer and started to made music to it, leaning on the style of some early Pink Floyd projects. This song should be regarded to migrant birds in analogy to the human society, nowadays.

I plan to go on this way in my next holiday, at least for a month, recording and using the sounds of a forest at night and the like. 

Now I hope you enjoy some of my songs ;-)
