  This is the first track of many that I had the privilege of doing with Neekoo! Very happy with the way that it turned out. It was so fun to do something outside of what I normally do. Something a bit more positive and on the upbeat side of things. I'm proud of the hard work that we both put in on this song, and it definitely shows. Hope you all enjoyed this one as much as we enjoyed making it! Keep your head up, keep your heart up and boogie on!

Day Dreamer - Neekoo and Professor ECS

Cast of Characters:

Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- Tez – foundational acoustic and electric guitars, distorted electric guitar, and the seed idea

Mistermark – @user-432503709 – Mark – vocals, lyrics, high organ, toy piano, percussion, sound effects, production, editing, mix

TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– 5-string banjo solo, electric guitar

J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- low organ, piano, synth flute, sound effects

K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums, percussion 

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – 4-string fretless bass

Composition – The Eclectic Collective

This song began its life as a hauntingly exquisite guitar chord progression that Tez came up with and shared with the rest of us. He also stacked a couple of other guitar tracks in there for good measure. 

Ken was first up, adding his drums, then later his pots and pans percussion. As he was doing that, Josh was coming up with his bass line, and they did their little dance of back and forth until the rhythm section was set. 

Mark came in around the same time, though, and added his unique, Waitsian vocals with the lyrics that he wrote for it, too. He also added some really amazing organ parts, a toy piano which you can hear right after the banjo solo, and percussion that add a solid foundation for his voice and add magic throughout the song. 

Stephen followed shortly after with the big stroke guitar chords, and also came up with the amazing banjo solo you hear in there, too. Last, but not least, JJ came in with his organ and electric piano to seal the deal with the melodies and ambience. Then he and Mark added the cool sound effects you hear throughout, too.

  Every great song needs a great producer, and Mark filled the duty on this one. He has proved himself to be a masterful editor, producer, and mixer, and we are lucky to have him as part of the team.

  This one is an homage to Tom Waits in a deliberate way. We're all big fans, and tried to do something in his unique style. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.
 
Original lyrics by Mistermark:
I got something hidden in my closet 
that I don’t want you to see 
A little like a shady deposit
And it’s bound to incriminate me

Well now some might call it a skeleton 
Like a raincoat filled with bones
See I been hangin’ it there since I don’t know when
And I just can’t leave it alone

Me and Bill rolling bones in a gambling hall 
I threw snake eyes but Bill counted three
I took his accusation just a little too far 
Then everybody went quiet as they stared at me

Now the finger bone’s connected to the trigger
And the hand bone’s connected to me
And every day my secret’s gettin’ bigger
Soon enough I’ll be swinging from a tree

Coz I got something hidden in my closet 
that I don’t want you to see 
I done made a shady deposit
And it’s bound to incriminate me

Well now some might call it a skeleton 
Like a raincoat filled with bones
See I been hiding it there since I don’t know when
And I just can’t leave it alone
(repeat)

Bones - (Eclectic Collective)

Really wanted to have a strong emotional guitar, so I a found a couple chords I liked and did some finger picking trying to emphasize the base note. I listened over and over once I had got the sound out of the guitar I wanted and tried to fit lyrics in that would give it a unique and relaxing sound. Hope you enjoy!

Lyrics:

Open your eyes
See the darker sides
Of me

Don’t be afraid
I won’t bite
Today

But if you need
Something from me
I would give it to you

Because
You’re just
So Beautiful

My brain Can’t
Comprehend this
I don’t know if
I can’t stand this

Pain
So much pain


Pain
So much pain
I can’t refrain
Close your eyes
See the brighter sides
Of us

I know I can
Cause fear
But please 
I need you near

But if you need
To run from me
I would understand

Because 
You’re Just
So Fragile

My Mind Can’t
Contain this
I just know that 
We should end this

Pain
So much pain
Pain
So much pain
I can’t refrain

So Much Pain

Lyrics by David Cooper:

She waits on the railway platform 
Same time every night
She takes her usual seat and waits there
But the train never arrives

She’s been waiting there a long time 
It’s all she can do
Wishing for her man to come home
But it never comes true

Chorus

For forty years she’s been there
Been waiting for that train 
And wishes her dreams will come true
But it never comes, it never comes

He went to war; it seems a long time 
A long time ago
But she only sees it one way
In her mind, it’s like yesterday

Chorus

Solo

Break

He’s never coming home etc

She gets up and makes her way home
With tears in her eyes
And the one thing that she knows
Waiting is futile

He’s never coming home etc

He's never coming home (Cooper/Granthem Collaboration with Video)

Un nouveau mix pour cette chanson de 2023, qui reste un hymne à la liberté pour toutes les femmes dans le monde, à l'image du courage extraordinaire dont font preuve les femmes  qui résistent en Iran, et pour leur Amie de cœur : l'Ukraine 
PAROLES
Femme iranienne cheveux au vent
Toi dont la vie même est l’enfant
 Les ayatollahs de poussière
 Ne comprennent rien à ton mystère

Laisse à l’enfant la balancelle
 Laisse à la vie le goût du sel
 A ceux qui s’aiment l’air du temps
Aux hirondelles le printemps

Femme iranienne cheveux au vent
Toi dont la vie même est l’enfant
 Les ayatollahs de poussière
 N’arriveront pas à te faire taire

Laisse à la femme la liberté
Laisse à l’Ukraine ses champs de blé

Laisse à l’amant la bagatelle
 Laisse à la vie le goût du sel
Pour ceux qui sèment les graines d’or
 L’amour est plus fort que la mort

Laisse à l’enfant la balancelle
 Laisse à la vie le goût du sel

le sel de la vie

Un petit hommage à un pionnier de l'électro français
