Haunted Memories (Richsoundz, John Stone)

Performed & Produced by John Stone
Music John Stone
Lyrics Richsoundz, John Stone


All my thoughts, they're still bearing traces
Your face  imprinted deep upon my mind
And your melodic, lilting voice
Like I ain't really got no choice
They're staying here inside me for all time

Even when I lay me down to sleep
You're stalking all my dreams
I  can't leave you behind
Everywhere I  see the signs
You're always present and won't let me be
Your spirit follows me
Through the halls of haunted memories

All my thoughts past events they're chasing
With you beside me everywhere I go
Your perfume always trailing me
And everywhere your face I see
There’s nowhere I can go that you don’t show

Even when…


I never saw it come to this:
What started with a simple kiss
Then love grew and we thought we knew
That life was long if love was true
But that was never meant to be 
When fate took you away from me
Till death us part our sacred vow 
But though you’re gone I see you now

Your spirit  follows  me
Through the halls of haunted memories 
Your spirit follows me
Through the halls of haunted memories 
Your spirit …

Haunted Memories (Richsoundz + John Stone)

February brings a slower, pensive, ballad from the WAG fellas. Perhaps we're feeling a little sentimental, or reflective in the bleak midwinter?  Maybe it is the approach of Valentine's Day slowing things down, or is it simply age, and the desire to capture anew, the childlike wonder of looking up in a gentle snowfall?

Change is the key to being fresh in our creative approaches to music. One For The Eye is a poem I wrote in celebration of the winter season. It was adapted by Keith to better fit an easy listening composition I had sent to him earlier. Keith ran with the challenge to make a song out of these parts and delivers a song that, we trust,  gives one pause to conjure up those moments from childhood in the snow, and smile. 

Two observations offer a frame for this song:
This week, Nova Scotia, where I have family, received a record setting dump of snow (Sydney N.S. received 1.5 m), and that is where the muse opens.
The other observation is that in the west, in Alberta and Saskatchewan, where I also have family, there is too little snow accumulation leading to worries about water tables, crops, and forest fires this summer. Too much or too little is not good.

Lyrics:
One for the Eye 

Too much can be an undesirable burden
Too little leave all hopes abandoned.
One at a time,
One on the tongue,
and one in the eye.

Or could it be a warm iconic postcard?
Or would it be much better left just as Mother intended
One at a time
One on the tongue
and one in the eye

A light descent from heaven
It may be euphoric
Though always seen,  
never heard in the falling

One at a time
One at a time
One for the tongue
One for the tongue
…and one in the eye

One For The Eye

Creative Spirit Online: "Colorful and engaging from beginning to end, this is the latest of Robert John Brooks’ virtuosic offerings. The three movements (Rondo, Variations and Finale) are scored for large orchestra—a twenty-minute journey through sometimes tender, often energetically playful, occasionally threatening, and ever-changing musical textures. Brooks’ musical gift lies in his ability to create highly structured, clearly defined musical gestures within the context of a challenging and thoughtful harmonic and rhythmic language."

“Contrapunctus III” was completed in February 2024 in Fairview, TX. The work is in three movements: Rondo, Variations, and Finale'. Performance time is about 20 minutes. Printed and electronic copies of the score are available now and instrumental parts will soon be available soon from www.CreativeSpiritOnline.com.

-----------------------------------
台風の花
青い妖怪鏡
苦い水

-----------------------------------

I am storm flower 
And as soon as I bloom 
I perfume and I illuminate 
Of a thousand strategies 
My darling enemies 
I am the goldsmith 
Of my beloved monsters 
I make with:  A fever, a religion, a politics 
O dear mad dog 
I now have the right to poison you 
I am purity 
And you 
You are the terrorist 
That I create 
You are my monster that I show to the world 
My genocide of youth

-------------------------------

Je suis fleur de tempête
Et dès mon éclosion
Je parfume et j'éclaire 
De mille stratégies
Mes ennemis chéris
Je suis l'orfèvre
De mes monstres bien-aimés
J'en fait
Une fièvre, une religion, une politique
Ô cher chien enragé
J'ai à présent le droit de t'empoisonner
Je suis pureté
Et toi
Tu es le terroriste
Que je crée 
Tu es mon monstre que je montre au monde
Mon génocide de jouvence
