@formichiy3:    It's always important to take a few short breaks now and then!  Might have taken a short nap there.

A Wretch Like me
FredGold&LyndaFaye

I may not have lived my life, upon the straight and narrow,
I may have swerved a bit, to avoid a bumpy road,
After all is said and done, you know I'm only human,
I just keep truckin', now the Lord is in control,

When I go walking down the street, the beggars call me "Sonny"
I guess they can see that shinin' light, the Lord has shown on me,
In their despair, they even care, sometimes, they (even) throw ME money
I Believe that they can see, how the Lord has set me free..

CH:
All my life, that old devil 's been tryin' to get me down,
All my life, that old devil's been hangin' 'round,
But all my life, all I want the world to see, is
I will always follow Him...A Wretch Like Me.

All through life , this earthly life, there be trials and tribulation,
Ain't nobody gonna' help you through, not friends and not relation...
God, he has the only key to get you through this strive,
God who is our truth and light, he'll get you through life!

I may not have lived my life, upon the straight and narrow,
I may have swerved a bit, to avoid a bumpy road,
After all is said and done, you know I'm only human,
I just keep truckin', now the Lord is in control,

CH:
All my life, that old devil 's been tryin' to get me down,
All my life, that old devil's been hangin' 'round,
But all my life, all I want the world to see, is
I will always honor Him...A Wretch Like Me.

I have to admit, that I was inspired to write this song after I heard Jerry Seinfeld's joke!  He said to his friend, "You're so broke the street people HAND YOU money! Ha! to be that "poor", how funny---So then came the character "sonny"., because the lord must have been shining HIS light on this poor character !  Now it's shinin on me too?!

A Lineage Of Knighthood In The Parlance Of Our Times (2016)

Composed 2017, recorded July 2023

Bernhard Plagg - trumpet 1
Stephan Stadtfeld - trumpet 2
Lionel Speciale - horn
Vladimir Vereś - trombone
Fabian Neckermann - tuba

Sound recording in the studio of the Landesmusikakademie Berlin, 2023
Sound engineer: Benjamin Ostarek

Program Note
Tagundnachtgleiche (Equinox) was created on the occasion of a composition competition for brass quintets announced by the publishing house Furore Verlag in 2017.
At the beginning of 2023, I decided to record the piece in a recording studio and to make it available to the public. The trumpeter Bernhard Plagg was kind enough to take on the project. He put together a brass quintet, organised rehearsal dates, etc.
The composition consists of two elements that alternate or interpenetrate each other. On the one hand, composed, notated music, harmonic and rhythmic in the broadest sense. And on the other, improvised music, mainly consisting of differentiated, nuanced noises and representing a kind of random music, like random sounds in nature.

i wanna redo the vocals <3

lyrics :D

sixteen to sixty (x7)

one day I wish I can be that clean
one day I’d like to be that clean

sweet sixteen
stepped in the dirt
sweet sixteen
tits down to earth

one day I wish to be that clean
one day I wish
one I’ll be that clean

sixteen to sixty 
sixteen to sixty 
sixteen to sexy

60 (interlude)

На краю

Песчаные лестницы

No hay nada allá afuera
que me haga querer más.
Aunque las alarmas suenan
no me puedo levantar.
Los segundos son muy largos
y no dejo de pensar.
Este ruido blanco
envuelve todo lo demás

Dead In Space

Lynda Faye and Fred Gold, together, formed the Illinois Harmony Connection, at SoundClick, and You Tube. Fred's in Illinois, Lynda in CA, so all of our music duos etc were prepared in CyberSpace, thanks to Audacity! I'm apparently an alto and a soprano-But I attended Pepperdine College on a violin scholarship, and also gave opera a shot, but I gave up on performing it! Allot of my songs are cross-overs, I realize that----Country-Gospel, Classical-Folk, along with a few comical songs. I'm a classical violinist at heart, but taught myself enough guitar with a few great influences advising me here and there (which you can hear on some of my solos!) Ben Benay wanted to teach me some arranging techniques, but I didn't have the tenacity; He said if I didn't study classical guitar, I'd never be able to write more than country folk;Guess he was right, but then the violin influence stepped in- when he heard  my humming of the violin parts, he said, "Lynda, you ARE an arranger ?" ; Paula Drake tried too, for a few years, and she's in her 80's a still goin' strong!  but I kept continuing to plug away at the writing!I had to edit this, sadly, as classmate Fred Gold (Railsback) lost his beloved wife, Ella May, last August. I'm trying to encourage him to keep at that guitar; but I'm sure he's not much in the mood; We dedicated "Ella's Garden", the song we're recorded a few years ago, as Ella's memory -as the video on "I Wanna go Back" was filmed IN Ella's back yard garden, and the song has now taken on special meaning to both of us. Won't be a "replacement for" Fred, but I found both Adriano Fontana's versatility and guitar expertise, and "Ancolies" singing a few of my songs in French for me. Won't be easy to find! I'm seeking to find some competent "versatile" musicians (and composers) who love children and have hopes for music in future generations, and perhaps a strong History Buff, to help with several children's musicals. I welcome other singers to sing my originals---My goal has never been to "be" a great singer; but to connect appropriate singers TO some of my songs: All three genres. My Folky MOR album is "Movin' On" at CDBaby. , I've "been there done that-nite clubs, Holiday Inn lounges from Ca. to Pennsylvania; I refused the Vegas offers! (too much writing to do!)  A songwriter's "Job", like most housewives...is never done, now, is it ?
Pls see the attitude of most of them who are married TO, some of those songwriters, in the "Songwriters' Serenade", or, as I'm always having difficulty finding "concise" titles...." All You Got is Words!" Some of my folky-country is on my album at CDBaby, titled "Movin On"...and I am currently trying to assemble twenty songs for " Friends, Love Songs and Heartaches." Seems viewers liked the " remakes" of the Oldies-I attribute that to Adriano's working his way in and out and around my Acapella tracks, I sent to him; I'm not easy to work with because I have trouble keeping "consistent  rhythms' . Of course Adrian has a word in Italian for that. Maybe HE should solo on a few of my songs and I'll back him on guitar; Course those would then become comedy, yes Adriano ?
Oh, all  I  m e a n t to say was "Thanks for Listening! "
