Breathe

At the age of 12, I fell madly in love with the spindly Brigitte, who lived with her parents in the house next door. Unfortunately, she did not return my love, but had eyes exclusively for David Cassidy, the then mega-girl crush and star of the series "Partridge Family". In my still very childish imagination and jealousy, I made elaborate plans to secretly cross over to America in a plane. There unnoticed murder David Cassidy during one of the series rehearsals and after my return to Germany, the then inconsolable Brigitte close in my arms and she can have then all alone for me.  
When these sometimes obsessive thoughts tormented me too much, I put on "It`s only Love"; the second song from the B-side of "Help", my very first record album by the Beatles.
And as soon as John Lennon intoned the refrain "It`s only love and that is all, why should I feel the way I do..." in his wonderfully haunting voice, I immediately calmed down and found a deep comfort within myself. 
A good 40 years later, this old story caught up with me again when my son told me that he was pining over a young woman living in his neighborhood, but that she was completely ignoring him.  
This "eternal return of the same" made my cover version of "It`s only Love" rise up in me. - The result to be heard here has been, as always with my covers, vigorously turned through the Karlit-O-Kay mill....   

Mit 12 Jahren verliebte ich mich unsterblich in die spindeldürre  Brigitte, die mit Ihren Eltern im Nachbarshaus wohnte. Leider erwiderte sie meine Liebe nicht, sondern hatte ausschließlich Augen für David Cassidy, dem damaligen Mega-Mädchenschwarm und Star der Serie "Partridge Family". In meiner noch sehr kindlichen Phantasie und Eifersucht schmiedete ich ausgeklügelte Pläne, wie ich heimlich in einem Flugzeug nach Amerika hinübersetze. Dort unbemerkt David Cassidy bei einem der Serienproben ermorde und nach meiner Rückkehr nach Deutschland, die dann untröstliche Brigitte in meine Arme schließe und sie dann ganz alleine für mich haben kann.  
Wenn mich diese mitunter obsessiven Gedanken zu sehr quälten, legte ich "It`s only Love" auf; das zweite Lied von der B-Seite von "Help", meinem allerersten Platten-Album von den Beatles.
Und sobald John Lennon mit seiner wunderbar eindringlichen Stimme den Refrain "It`s only love and that is all, why should I feel the way I do..." anstimmte, beruhigte mich dies sofort und ich fand  einen tiefen Trost in mir. 
Gut 40 Jahre später holte mich diese alte Geschichte wieder ein, als mir mein Sohn erzählte, dass er eine in seiner Nachbarschaft lebende junge Frau anschmachtet, sie ihn aber komplett ignorieren würde.  
Diese "ewige Wiederkehr des Gleichen" ließ in mir meine Cover-Version von "It`s only Love" aufsteigen. - Das hier zu hörende Ergebnis ist wie immer bei meinen Covers kräftig durch die Karlit-O-Kay-Mühle gedreht worden....

It`s only love (Cover-Version)

It´s Only Love (Cover-Version)

Introduction in English:

My uncle, who became a sort of surrogate father to me after my father's untimely death, celebrates his 91st birthday in July. His wife had passed away some time ago and he had been single ever since. 
About five years ago, he visibly harbored the intention of ending his life in Switzerland with active euthanasia. 
Then, surprisingly, an elderly lady (about five years younger than him) moved into the apartment next door. She had also been widowed for some time.
Both got to know each other and fell in love. 
And even today they seem to be freshly in love with each other when I visit and they are sitting snuggled up on my uncle's old sofa. 
A scene that gives me hope and shows me that love can "catch" you even in old age. 
And a scene that was the starting point for the creation of the song "I`m in Love" posted here.  

Lyrics (for those, who don`t speak German)

I`m in Love

First verse:

I had already counted the days one by one,
I struggled out of bed every morning
Went all crooked and awry 
Had long since lost my hair

In Switzerland I had already ordered my coffin
For my gradual departure from the world
My heart pacemaker gave me the last groove

But suddenly a neighbor moved in
As wrinkled as me
In her nature beautiful and fine
I put down my suitcase for Switzerland for now

Second verse:

The next day she knocked on my door
She imagined she was here forever now
In her old eyes I saw the young woman

How she walked, how she sat, how she read in the newspaper
Her décolleté behind folds shapely and delicate
Her grace, elegance, like a lustful silent dance

Before she left again she embraced me 
My dusty self was enchanted
Instead of abandonment and renunciation a love poem flowed through me





Introduction in German:

Mein Onkel, der nach dem frühen Tod meines Vaters eine Art Ersatzvater für mich geworden ist, feiert im Juli seinen 91. Geburtstag. Seine Frau war schon länger verstorben und er seitdem alleinstehend. 
Vor ca. fünf Jahren  hegte er zusehends die Absicht, seinem Leben in der Schweiz mit aktiver Sterbehilfe ein Ende zu setzen. 
Dann zog überraschend eine ältere Dame (etwa fünf Jahre jünger als er) in die Nachbarswohnung ein. Auch sie war schon längere Zeit verwitwet.
Beide lernten sich kennen und verliebten sich ineinander. 
Und auch heute noch wirken Sie wie frisch verliebt ineinander, wenn ich Sie besuche und sie eng aneinander geschmiegt auf dem alten Sofa meines Onkels sitzen. 
Eine Szene, die mir Hoffnung macht und mir zeigt, dass die Liebe einen auch noch im hohen Alter "erwischen" kann. 
Und eine Szene, die den Ausgangspunkt für die Entstehung des hier geposteten Songs "I`m in Love" bildete.

I`m in Love

It's You My Lovely One

09/13/2025 I pulled this track out of circulation for a while until I had some time to wrap my head around how to handle some of the older mixes I had.  I read through all of these amazing comments and I was like this is unreal.  Fellow soundclouders have been so generous with their compliments and praise that I hardly feel worthy of this. Thank you again and again!!!! But alas, I never work completely alone and this track had a lot of my usual friends helping me. 
©  Lyrics and Music By Brenda Doss

"Have you heard
There’s a new god
The old one’s been resigned
But don’t be disappointed 
We’ve just hired Frankenstein
We think that he’ll be perfect
For the position
He brings to us a world of knowledge
Did you need another life?"

I’d like three please
Three of me is what I need
Nobody knows me like I do
Three would be just great
For work for love and one to play with
If I can’t have three, I’ll take two
If I can’t have three, I’ll take two

Am I
Nothing but a yahoo in the mud
Have I cleverly convinced myself
A diamond’s not a rock
So good we replicate it
While thinking nothing of it
What the hell...did you want my credit card
Or will you bill me through the mail
Cause

I’d like three please
Three of me is what I need
Nobody knows me like I do
Three would be just great
For work for love and one to play with
If I can’t have three, I’ll take two
If I can’t have three, I’ll take two

“You can add to your collection
Order from our catalog
Give them all away as presents
To the friends you think you’ve got
You can have them clean your kitchen
You can tell them what to do
You can  beat them when they misbehave
After all they’re only you”

I’d like three please
Three of me is what I need
Nobody knows me like I do
Three would be just great
For work for love and one to play with
If  I can’t have three, I’ll take two

I’d like three please
Three of me is what I need
Nobody knows me like I do
Three would be just great
For work for love and one to play with
If  I can’t have three, I’ll take two
(Outro bits...)

Song 1 from the upcoming EP "Trainee Clairvoyant", release date 3/10/25.

Don't Leave Your Wife

BROKEN HEARTED BLUES

The time for parting will come for everyone someday. A relative of mine suddenly passed away. They lived far away, but they were such a kind person. I offer this track with both sadness and respect, like offering flowers at a funeral.

Children of the sun (featuring amin pishehvar)

Does mystical materialism exist? Is it a trend or a concept yet to be explored? Are new products being created under this label? We don't know anything about it here, but we've imagined that such a thing might eventually exist, though we don't know if it's for better or worse.

Approaching Mystical Materialism

Lyrics 
Placed my fingers on her lips
She smiled and took them in
I turned the light switch down to low
And that's how it begins

She said Oooshallaooo
Oooshallaooo
She said Oooshallaooo
Oooshallaooo

Moved together like we were one
We had a need
The magic has only just begun
When she took my lead

She said Oooshallaooo
Oooshallaooo
She said Oooshallaooo
Oooshallaooo

Instrumental

It was time to go to sleep
The moon had gone to bed
She laid sleeping in my arms
And I had love was in my head

And I said Oooshalla
Oooshallaooo
And I said Oooshalla
Oooshallaooo
And I said Oooshalla
Oooshallaooo
And I said Oooshalla
Oooshallaooo

Outro

Oooshallaooo

:music is art:

:music is my drug:

:beautifully imperfect:

:music is my medicine:

- I see silence as a blank slate | a fresh canvas | an empty sky - 

- sometimes you can say more with music than you can say with words - 

- I typically use my first takes while recording unless I royally mess up -

- I believe in performance & emotion over overproduction & perfection - 

- I probably shouldn’t be telling you all this but then I guess I wouldn’t be staying true to myself if I didn’t - and what’s the point in that -

- the truth is in the flaws -

!STAY BEAUTIFUL!

!STAY SAFE!

!STAY ALIVE!
