A plucked string sound with delay/reverb is perfect for this topic. Nice work, Martin!

Also: this lyric was inspired by the following link.  To learn more about the stoic woman go to==> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDEcNSfhRdM&t=1221s
SHE
She doesn’t crave approval
She has no need of walls
Her gates are only open to
Those of likeness she calls
No longer wearing a mask
To indulge society
That’s the kind of woman
One day I long to be

CHORUS
She is unshakable
She is unbreakable
A menace to what this world calls femininity
She’s a self-contained light
A woman in her own right
Aligned with the universe in perpetuity

Her soul is non-negotiable 
She settles for no man
She doesn’t need permission
To take a moral stand
She walks through the fire
Of stoic pedigree
That’s the kind of woman
No man controls readily

CHORUS
She is unshakable
She is unbreakable
A menace to what this world calls femininity
She’s a self-contained light
A woman in her own right
Aligned with the universe in perpetuity, perpetuity

[Music w/ clapping]

She doesn’t want the pedestal  
She wants the partnership
Not looking to forge a man
Wants a man who’s got a grip
No longer bleeding inside
In her solitude she is free
Yeah, that’s the kind of woman
One day I vow to be

She is unshakable
She is unbreakable
A menace to what this world calls femininity
She’s a self-contained light
A woman in her own right
Aligned with the universe in perpetuity

BRIDGE
So, when you see her walking alone
You need not feel pity
She’s no longer waiting to be chosen
She owns the city –
She is dangerous
She no longer plays the game
She is dangerous
She’ll never be the same

She is unshakable
She is unbreakable
A menace to what this world calls femininity
She’s a self-contained light
A woman in her own right
Aligned with the universe in perpetuity, perpetuity, yeah

'ghetto falsetto' with Harmful if Followed and sixstring mac

Well the night’s effervescent and I’m on fire
Full of anti depressants to blunt my ire
Well aware of the presence of my desire
It feels very pleasant as I get higher
And I’m clad in a fashion to catch the eye
So why does everyone ignore me as I walk by
It would be a different story for a different guy
But I’ll never find the glory unless I try
So why do I lie so low 
Why don’t I let them know
Let them bask in the glow
Of my ghetto falsetto 

Most are fucked up from the drugs they take,
and don't care to interrupt all the love I make,
but I can't quite erupt so, I'll simply fake,
and make believe
that I have climaxed, because all the noise
that keeps me far from relaxed and trapped in the void, 
I've always had a clean nose but perhaps I'll toy 
with singing in falsetto. 

These streets are full of cackles and high pitched screams
A ghetto manifesto haunting my dreams
Monotone narration to a story I know
A baritone ending won’t leave me alone
I’m not crazy it’s the world around me
I’ll deal with the shit eventually 
Then get past the truth I know
That I’m too low for ghetto falsetto 

But it don’t mater how high or how low 
Unless you mean it nobody will know
All you need is the seed and the get go
Let go of the ghetto falsetto

Cast of characters:
The Beautiful Dark -- @thebeautifuldark -- Carl — Ovation guitar, lead vocals, lyrics, and compostion
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken -- drums
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Warwick fretless four-string bass
Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark –- VST timbale, production editing
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen — Tom Anderson Custom T electric guitar, production, mix, and mastering
J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell – electric piano and synth
Llanpsych -- @llanpsych -- Tez – Fender Telecaster HSS electric guitrar
This song began as Carl's tribute poem to our drummer, Ken. Carl came up with the chord progression and started a project, to which he invited the rest of us. This is the third song Eclectic Collective has done that is a tribute by Carl to one of our members.  We couldn't feel more honored than to be the subjects of his wild and boundless creativity.
  Fittingly, Ken was first in line to add his magnificent drums. Once we had drums, Josh had something to work with to add his bass, which he did shortly after the drums were up. Mark paid the project a visit next, helping out with a bit of production editing, and dropping in a mad percussion solo using his VST timbale drums.l.Stephen jumped in soon after, adding the melodic electric guitar riffs that appear throughout. Not to be outdone, JJ added some sonically thickening electric piano, as well as the throwback psychedelic synth that pops up towards the end. Finally, Tez came along and added the electrifying solo that appears about a third of the way in, as well as the one at the end. 
  Once the recording was finished, we turned it over to Stephen to mix in his always professional manner. 
  This song is all about our very talented teammate and brother, Ken, and it is well deserved, too. As mentioned, this is the third song from Carl about one of us. It's hard to describe the feeling of having someone who you respect take the time and energy to think about you in such a positive way as to produce a song about you. Then to have all your buddies join in to amplify it to a solid song is just mind-blowing. We are all very grateful to Carl for not only sharing his music with us, but for his thoughtful consideration of each of us as subjects. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.
Original lyrics by The Perfect Dark:
Karakoram human
You decorate good future
As many lose their Gods
You stand tall as suture

Rhythmic mountain maestro
Each day, graft, working hard
So kids can eat
Bruised back sees very best of yard

Still, beats get born of evenings
Deep love finds joules to jam
May generation X soothe meaning
Let's teach the younger pussies what we can

To Ken, from pen, to page, to Music
To friends, Now is when, Good sage soup soothes us
Honest and brave, To Jesus he save
Kudos our maestro of percussive wave

Karakoram human
You decorate good future
As many lose their Gods
You stand tall as suture
Sticks in hand
Cymbals a floating
Snare and bass backbone gland
Tom'ed Ringo Star man keep quoting
Keep life steady paced by hand

To Ken, from pen, to page, to Music
To friends, Now is when, Good sage soup soothes us
Honest and brave, To Jesus he save
Kudos our maestro of percussive wave

Touch Wood (Remix)

let us dream

My Crying Heart

In the silence after the storm,
I feel the cold where you were warm,
Your shadow lingers, torn apart,
A ghost that haunts my crying heart.

Each tear becomes a bitter sea,
Drowning the love you gave to me,
And every breath feels sharp as glass,
While lonely nights refuse to pass.

I reach for hands that are not there,
I speak your name into the air,
But only echoes will impart
The hollow song of my crying heart.

One shot... I used to be able to get this way cleaner 20 years ago but I think I'll maybe cover this and 2+2=5 when TBD hits the stage at some point...

'Radiohead' are hands down my favourite band ever. 'Blind Melon' second and 'War on Drugs' third!

Absolute legends the lot of them

this track is NOT monetised

Paranoid Android (Radiohead Jam)

time passing

diary is a container for my spontaneous and emotional electronic music. it is a mirror of my momentary mood and thoughts. I try to stay simple and pure, just recording my improvisations, using hardware devices like strega (make noise), neutron (behringer), arturia keystep pro, korg minilogue xd, preen fm2, roland p-6, behringer edge etc. The moment matters. Stay imperfect and fresh ! Enjoy!
