East of the Euphrates, the storm is rising..time skips on..and the music plays.......

Sandstorm Rising

This is the album version of a song about our brains slowly turning to mush from the increase in time we spend online and the CEOs that make sure we stay hooked. 
Lyrics:
Everybody's on a screen now
Everybody's on a screen now
And everybody's getting glued now
Oh everybody's getting glued

Everybody's on a screen now
Everybody's on the scence now
Cause everybody's gotta be now
Everybody's gotta be

The game is beating real lives
Our eyes are doing overtime
Now online living's caught us on the line

We're living in a virtual dream
But losing everything that means the most now
We're living ghosts now
The CEO of socials screams 'their information's what we need'
So suck their brains out
'Till they black out'

Now everybody's doing screen time
They pay the price for being seen time
They found a way out of the system
To not be staring at a screen
Imagine everybody offline
Within a world where there's no wi-fi
And all their brains have had a reset
And all they know is real life

The game is beating real lives
Our eyes are doing overtime
Now online living's caught us on the line

We're living in a virtual dream
But losing everything that means the most now
We're living ghosts now
The CEO of socials screams 'their information's what we need'
So suck their brains out
'Till they black out

La Joie

Somewhere between London and California, just outside the Galactic Lounge, is a place where a decidedly 1960s electric piano rubs shoulders with electric 12-string, Mellotron and upright bass, backed by pulses and twinkles from an analogue monosynth.

WE'LL BE THERE - Music & lyrics © Neil Bastian 2020

When they closed all the playhouses down
And the music halls were silenced all across the town
I could feel my poor heart breaking			
For the magic we were making
When they closed all the playhouses down

Oh, the stage seems bewildered by the silence
And the gods up in the circle seem to sit and sigh
Cos the orchestra’s abandoned
There’s no music on the stand and there’s no
Songs floating up to the fly

But there’s a light still burning in the deepest, darkest night
It’s the ghost light shining soft and true  
And though the day we’re all yearning for is just beyond our sight
When it comes we’ll all be there to sing for you!

Yes, we’ll be there in the light on that fateful grateful night
We’ll be there, ev’ry Jack and Jill and Joe
When we’ve turned this painful page 	
We’ll return to take the stage
We’ll be there to go on with the show

Oh we’ll be there on that night and we’ll sing with all our might
We’ll be there, ev’ry Molly, Mick an’ Mo
We’ll return to take the stage
Cos it’s how we earn our wage
We’ll be back to work the only way we know

Oh there’s a bright guiding light to illuminate the night
And it shines with a steady, golden glow
And we’ll tell you this for certain
When they raise that crimson curtain
We’ll be there
Yes we’ll be there
We’ll all be there
To go on with the show

We'll Be There (Ghost Light)- sung by the writer
