cien cien, cien pan ta da
my hare is red, my hare is yellow, my hare is green, my hare is blue
my fruit is rare, It grows on a field, upon a hilltop in a land of plenty
my head is red, my head is yellow, my head is green, my head is blue
I went up up up, into the atmosphere
I've gone gone gone into the ether
I shall sink my teeth into your gum

I follow my hare for a pear - into the ether

Written for my youngest daughter Rachel a few years ago, it explores the smooth jazz format using the Godin Encore nylon string guitar.  Annie Smart heard it, loved it, and asked to collaborate on it.  Her additions of vocals and piano are wonderful, artistic, and insightful; so good that I had to incorporate some of her lovely additions in the instrumental track.  It is such an honor to work with her. Join me in listening to the finished collaboration and more of her enthralling music @annie-smart-1.

Once settled in Artica Point, almost frozen, I watch the world happening fast, and I tell you about by singing five verses with different vocal styles, a main instrumental theme in progress all along, and some bits of the other songs in the album to keep it conceptual ;)

Letra  /  Translated Lyrics:

DESDE AQUÍ (HISTORIA CONTEMPORÁNEA)  /  FROM HERE (CONTEMPORARY HISTORY)

Ahora que estoy aquí congelado,  /  Now I’m frozen here,
observo el mundo por internet y radio.  /  I watch the world on internet and radio.
Todo sucede ahí abajo tan rápido,  /  Everything happens so fast down there,
que se aprecian claramente los cambios,  /  that changes are clearly appreciated,
desde aquí como un documental de historia contemporánea.  /  from here like a contemporary history documentary.

Con mis constantes vitales al mínimo,  /  With my vital signs down to a minimum,
como viviendo una película,  /  like living in a movie,
soy capaz de comprender el mecanismo  /  I am able to understand the mechanism
de la evolución de nuestra civilización,  /  of the evolution of our civilization,
desde aquí como un documental de historia contemporánea.  /  from here like a contemporary history documentary.

El frío que congela mi cuerpo  /  The cold that freezes my body
… … no me permite llorar,  /  … … doesn’t allow me to cry,
pero mi corazón sigue caliente muy adentro, en algún lugar,  /  but my heart is still warm deep inside, somewhere,
y puedo al menos entristecerme por lo que veo al mirar  /  and I can at least feel sad about what I see when I look
desde aquí como un documental de historia contemporánea.  /  from here like a contemporary history documentary.

Ahora que lo comprendo todo  /  Now when I understand everything,
entiendo que todos somos iguales,  /  I realize we’re all the same,
que sentimos lo mismo aunque ninguno lo sabe.  /  and we feel the same although no one knows it.
Desde aquí me identifico con cada hombre,  /  From here I feel identified with every man,
desde aquí como un documental de historia contemporánea.  /  from here like a contemporary history documentary.

Desde aquí me alegro de no estar ahí abajo.  /  From here I’m glad not being down there.
Esperaré a ver qué pasa dentro de cien años.  /  I’ll wait and see what happens a hundred years from now.
Mi cuerpo apenas será un poco más viejo,  /  My body will hardly be a little older,
pero sí cumpliré siglo y medio de sabiduría y tristeza,  /  but I will get a century and a half of wisdom and sadness,
desde aquí como un documental de historia contemporánea.  /  from here like a contemporary history documentary.

Thanks a lot Jan and Amanda for your passion and your dedication to create this excellent song!

IF ONLY

If only you could see through my eyes
If only I could find just one more way
If only we could go back in time
If the two of us didn’t feel so lonely

If only could be sublime

And I will never forget
I remember your tender embrace
I miss gazing into your eyes
I miss hearing your laughter
Seeing your smile
Feeling your love

And yet
There’s so much more
Why I walked out that door
I can’t ever forget
Lying on my back 
On a cold floor

If only you’d never got mad
If only you hadn’t made me sad
I sing every night and day
I sing if only
If only

If we could get back to just having fun
If everything could be undone
If we could live on regret
If the two of us, had never met
If no-one had to run

If only you’d never got mad
If only you hadn’t made me sad
I sing every night and day
I sing if only
If only

I pray from Monday to Sunday
I pray for both of our souls
I sing every night and day
I sing if only
If only

Dedicated to...you know who you are.

As always, a pleasure working with Davy. When writing these lyrics I was thinking of the song “Freedom” by George Michael. I think a lot of us have shouted the chorus out loud and interpreted the song in a very uplifting way, but when you actually read the lyrics it becomes clear that it is in fact a very serious song. Now, if only I could sing like that...

EASY FOR YOU

Can’t you see
You lost the key
You’re adrift on a restless sea
You’re not friends of Carly
Bet you think this song’s about me

It’s so easy to play the game
Easy to pin the blame
Easy to not feel any shame
Easy to stand on your fame

It’s so easy, easy for you
It’s so damn easy, too easy for you
Blinkers on, don’t you ever look back
It’s so easy, too easy for you 

It’s so easy, so easy for you
It’s so damn easy, too easy for you
Nothing to do, there’s no stopping you
It’s so easy, goddamn easy for you 

The family once yours
The friends you left behind
You think you’re strong and free
But you hide behind your Dorian Grey

The light in your eye it fades away
As you lie alone in your bed
The dreams that you gave up
The hopes that you once had

It’s so easy, easy for you
It’s so damn easy, too easy for you
Blinkers on, don’t you ever look back
It’s so easy, too easy for you 

It’s so easy, so easy for you
It’s so damn easy, too easy for you
Nothing to do, there’s no stopping you
It’s so easy, goddamn easy for you 

It’s so easy
Easy for you
It’s so easy 
Easy for you

Easy For You

Easy For You | Davy Vance 🎸

Highway to Hell.mp3

take a deep breath..and a leap of faith
welcome to the human condition...

Maybe its time we all need to take a deep breath and realize the world has become a claustrophobic place from over population moving too fast like traffic and the pollution it causes.
fake news and paranoia is now running amok with possible laboratory viruses being unleashed from the effects of messing with the natures food chain and we are sinking into the effects of global warming and mass devastation across the globe.
this is the effects and revenge of a living planet fighting back for its damage from its occupants ..this is the effects of letting madmen run governments and police countries 
are we beyond repair? maybe its time to say we have had enough and try and do something before its to late ..
notes [i actually recorded three very different versions of this song and decided on this one and mix i might put the longer version which runs at about 6 mins out at a later date ]
ive also tried to record a fair bit of this live with overdubs ie telecaster real bass bongos etc and of course synths hope you enjoy and get the message

👹SCARY CUDDLING🥰 (IN A WORLD OF SH💩T) [Back💐To True🧡Love]

The Title of the song can be understood in 2 ways:
1. a reflection of the current Corona crisis we are in
2. the feeling I still have since I play this 8 string beast, that I bought myself in January 2020. Always used to be at home on 6 strings, this one is really a challenge, which I am getting only slowly under control.
 Never in my life I had to search on a guitar for the deep e-string :-)

Surfing On A Disastrous Wave

I am happy to present you a further collaboration with Ken Minty (@kcm069).
Ken has written the lyrics and vocals to this track. 
Ken has also played the intro on the acoustic and the stunning slide solos on his lap steel guitar for the guitar battle at the end of the song. For me I perceived it as if Ken had sold his soul to the devil at the crossroads, but ...hm... I am still not sure if he really did ...

dancing to the rhythm of this rainbow prison
	dreaming on a winter's day
	welcome to the hotel no one can name
	such a lovely place to stay
	out on bail a step away from jail
	longing for some other world
	if I could see all the people on the beach
	I'd wish they were all dreaming girls

	from forests cool to deserts hot
	from the mountains in the east to the sea
	out of my prison, is such a lovely place
	of girls, hotels and dreams
	
	California

	the prison around me is not made of concrete
	timber, rocks or steel
	the hotel can't be found in a guide book
	it's location no map can reveal
	the panther's child still stalks the streets
	looking for a better scene
	and the beach is a rainbow fantasy

Free DL: RIGOONI - Wetland Wisdom (Ambient Mix) [ROFD]

I used a Seagull 12 string to play this song, done in the key of G. I'm using 12-52 strings which give it a little better resonance and stronger base tones. The shift to the Em or later to the F are much richer in my mind with this setup.

As for the song, interestingly enough Utah Phillips really only sang the song once and only to another person: he never actually recorded it himself.

Bruce (U. Utah) Phillips fought in the Korean War and was returning to the US on a troop ship when he wrote this song. He sang this song to Rosalie Sorrels when he returned to the US and she taped the session and later sang and recorded this song. According to a taped interview, Utah said that he never sang it again after his meeting with Rosalie. In his words: "it was a hard, angry love song and I no longer feel that way anymore."  It was based on his love of a woman he would have met before the war and apparently she did not feel the same way about him. Possibly she made it clear in wartime correspondence, as referenced in the song: "The letter you wrote me".  There are many beautiful images in the song but he saved his deepest thoughts for the last line.  Now rock salt was normally using in the making of ice cream but removing lead pellets and replacing with rock salt in a shotgun shell is meant to leave a sting and is not meant to seriously harm.  Unfortunately, I could not find any reference to adding nails to the mix.  Certainly this is on the darker side of revenge but it does fit the lyrical rhyming.

I truly fell in love with the chord pattern, especially the G down to the Em and then on the last line of each verse, from the G to the F. It's fun to add some extra notes between the G and C chord changes. All in all, it is a beautiful tune and I enjoy playing it.

Rock Salt and Nails
-------------------
[INTRO]

On the banks of the river where the willows hang down
And the wild birds all warble with a low moaning sound
Down in the hollow where the water runs cold
It was there I first listened to the lies that you told

Now I lie on my bed and I see your sweet face
The past I remember time cannot erase
The letter you wrote me, it was written in shame
And I know that your conscience still echoes my name

[SOLO]

Now the nights are so long Lord sorrow runs deep
And nothing is worse than a night without sleep
I'll walk out alone and look at the sky
Too empty to sing to lonesome to cry

If the ladies were blackbirds and the ladies were thrushes
I'd lie there for hours in the chilly, cold marshes
If the ladies were squirrels with high bushy tails
I'd load up my shotgun with rock salt and nails.  

[OUTRO]: I'd load up my shotgun with rock salt and nails.

Terra V - In Nomine [Out Now]

I've been a fan of Boozoo Bajou ever since I discovered their album Satta. Their tropical grooves take me back to old days of rest and relaxation on the beaches and beach-fronts of India that I've visited during my travels. Their downtempo, dub and bossa nova influenced rhythms definitely make a good wind-down listen!
