Another great piece of work. Another nice collab. Well done to all.

I've missed this....wonderful lyrics and vocals! the music is so melancholic beautiful and very well played and what a great feeling! GOOD guys!! 

I'm totally digging the period feel of this.  The language is spectacularly used in this wonderful track.  Beautifully done.

@ruud-lockefeir: thank you from both Rudi!

@sunnidayz: I agree it is a wonderful piece, for the most part by Clouders for:  Hans recorded the music and wrote the lyrics, so... I became the singer for this occasion, a modest role. I am very pleased though that you like it so much :))) Thank you for your kind words, from both!

A little idea with the piano, with light percussive spices, plus bass and lead from the synthesizer, rounded off with an airy "choir".

ELOP - K.O.M 2022 (Prod. By The Italian Job)

I bought this children's guitar at GoodWill for less than $15... I put $6 worth of good nylon strings on it.  And then I just played it.  Maybe I'm out of line... especially since I set the levels too high when recording it.  But there's something about this recording: I guess beauty is in the ear of the beholder...

- Refuge -

where people went
in times of war.
we're many here
but war has sent
so many more.

all are allowed
and all attend.
some in hell
their lives have spent.

not all found out
just what it meant
to love the one
before the end.

Without Running

it's fine, is seems
you stop, believe
the simple words
rain starts to blur

droppin' down your trail
put it in the mill
next up on your list
send a handy wish

full daisy chains
'n stacked remains
a joke that fits
non stick surface

this massive charge
come foolish hearts
you mix love in
on top of it
a hundred firsts
go unrehearsed
perplexing wind
to lure you in

When I visited Hans' YouTube channel I watched the video of his instrumental "The Princess and the Thief". I noticed he had put German lyrics below the video... but I never heard the 'song'... I contacted Hans and asked him what he'd think of me singing these... Hans liked the idea and so last weekend I recorded his lyrics with his instrumental. Guys enjoy this special collaboration...

Lyrics (English translation)
	
Your golden body
Your precious glow
Your richness in beauty
So worthy and deep

Your gloryfull eyes
Filled with crowning light
Your untainted appearance
Your noble face

You were the princes
And I was the thief
All of your dreams
Not one remained
Your longing for love
The fable of bliss 
These all I will not
Ever return

You were all good
And I was the ban
You were all life
And I was Death

Your heart is broken
Lost and empty
Robbed,  deceived
You are no longer there

You were the princes
And I was the thief
All of your dreams
Not one remained
Your longing for love
The fable of bliss 
These all I won’t
Ever return

Lyrics(German)

Dein goldener Körper 
Dein kostbarer Glanz 
Dein Reichtum an Schönheit 
So wertvoll und ganz

Der Schmuck deiner Augen 
Voll krönendem Licht 
Dein reines Erscheinen 
Dein edles Gesicht

Du warst die Prinzessin 
Und ich war der Dieb   
All’ deiner Träume 
Und keiner blieb            
Die Sehnsucht nach Liebe 
Das Märchen vom Glück 
Das geb’ ich dir alles 
Nie mehr zurück

Du warst alles Gute 
Und ich das Verbot 
Du warst alles Leben 
Und ich war der Tod

Dein Herz ist zerbrochen 
Verloren und leer      
Bestohlen, betrogen 
Es gibt dich nicht mehr

Du warst die Prinzessin 
Und ich war der Dieb 
All’ deiner Träume 
Und keiner blieb        
Die Sehnsucht nach Liebe 
Das Märchen vom Glück 
Das geb’ ich dir alles 
Nie mehr zurück
