So much soul in it. Beautiful and strong.

What a collab...Impressive...great dedication to Mrs.O

love the tribute for Chris - warm, flowing and a story for each of us here.  Beautiful vocals, lyrics, piano and voicing and harmonies - Thank you Terry and Hans

Wonderful vocal performance, highlighted by the restrained backing, nice message too

Love this pared-back version, Tel. A lovely tribute to a lovely lady

well, Hans has excelled with this vision of your song for Mrs. O, powerful vocals really drove this over the steady piano chords, I loved the choral "oh"s emerging near the end!  Masterful design!

We’re Heading on Up
But, We Keep…. 
Falling Down
Gotta’ pick ourselves Up
From the cold, hard Ground
Our knees are scuffed
Our Bones are sore
Our minds confused
All those Lies…..
And so much more
Don’t give me excuses
Don’t you criticize
One day you’ll wake up
And You’ll realize
So, Pick It Up
Don’t Put ‘Em Down
Your Time is Up
Don’t Look Around
Don’t You Look Around
(Repeat Verses)

Estamos subindo
Mas, nós mantemos….
Caindo
Temos que nos levantar
Do solo frio e duro
Nossos joelhos estão arranhados
Nossos ossos estão doloridos
Nossas mentes confusas
Todas aquelas mentiras… ..
E muito mais
Não me dê desculpas
Não critique
Um dia você vai acordar
E você vai perceber
Então, pegue
Não os abaixe
Seu tempo acabou
Não olhe em volta
Você não olha em volta
(Repetir versos)

Jim Croce has always been a favorite singer/songwriter of mine.  
I decided to do another one of his tunes.  I wonder what great
song he might have written if he was still with us?  Thanks
so much for listening.

I Have To Say I Love You In A Song ( cover - Jim Croce)

Fly High

Just so we’re clear, that is a picture of a NOSE playing the guitar.

Song for five guitars three hambones and one stuffy nose

Naive romantic lyrics. The whole rest is harmonies and melodies.

You stare at me intensely 
a bit like you would with a child 
who you think is lying to you 
you simply don't believe me 

Give me a hundred years 
to show you my feelings 
put them to the test of time
but you won't find any traces 
of the passing of time, then wearily
you'll understand that my love 
is not wind

look at me, I defend myself 
with the weapons of a child 
who wants to win your trust 
to steal your heart 


Give me a hundred years 
to cross the oceans 
brave the waves and the torments
so that in the end not a trace 
of this weary time
then you'll know that my love 
is not wind

C'est Pas Du Vent (translated)

Whenever we send Hans the demo of a new song, one of the most enticing parts of the process is that we never know what is going to come winging it’s way back from Hamburg.  We never try and steer him in any particular direction because we have total faith that whatever he sends will  be much, much better than anything we’d had in mind.

Quite often, once a week or two has passed and he’s had the chance to expand on his thinking, he’ll send another version, totally different from the first but always something equally as brilliant, causing both Tel and myself to ponder which one to post.   A quandary of the very best kind.  

Chris O is a multi-faceted musician who seems at home within any genre but there’s no doubt she is best known for her mastery of The Blues, hence the demo leaning very firmly in that direction…or so we thought  However, on hearing it for the first time, Hans heard something very different.  His thoughts focused on a simple piano / voice ballad, something we were certainly not expecting but which totally blew us away.

By the end of that weekend though, along too came the blues version, a delicious groove to which I couldn’t wait to add some drums and as those who’ve already heard it will know, that’s the one we eventually posted.  Nevertheless, the indelible mark imprinted on my sensibilities by the unplugged mix simply refused to go away.  Even though it’s precisely the same vocal, the pared-back accompaniment pushes it’s heart and it’s power to the fore and I felt that it deserved to be heard.  So that’s the reason we’re posting ‘The Love of Mrs. O’, phase two…

In closing, despite our retirement from active involvement here on SC, Cripple Club wanted to send each and every one of you our sincere thanks for continuing to support our work.  Your generosity of spirit and kind words always mean so much to the three of us.  (Gary Reeves)

I met a brave woman by the name of Mrs O
Playing ‘The Blues’ flying high sometimes flying low
Guitars and Banjos pitching..always acoustic 
Singing and sharing a love affair with music

The Love Of Mrs O

No distance too far, mile by mile growing warm
Confidence of written word believing in art-form
Marriage strings and voice harmonising sounds
The love of freedom scales tightly in bounds

The Love Of Mrs O

Concerts of brave, pulse to a time
Ensemble in waves, helping the climb
Brothers of blues, traveller of love
Live music choose, to fit like a glove

The Love Of Mrs O

Mrs O keeps soaring magnum opus in her hands
Song of friendship for a man from many bands
Expanse of cumulus clouds, filming for all to see
Never hiding from the challenge in the Nebulosity

The Love Of Mrs O

Up and down across the world finding a closeness
No discrimination of any kind, love is always best
From ‘The Beatles’ land to a Sydney education 
Fondness for Mrs O, giving a continuous ovation

The Love Of Mrs O

Heaven Help Me

When I first heard this I instantly picked up a  blusey mid eastern flavour to it and decided to pick up on that theme. I used Pauls track "Remember" in it's entirety with no edits to do some post production work around it, picking up on that eastern vibe I was getting !! I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did making it.  
A BIG thank you to Paul for this opportunity and for all your great support!!

Lyrics

Even Fail
By Ed Bejzak and David Husted

V1
Wave sharpens
As it readies to pound
Under ocean canopy
Once again smooth
A tired refrain

Ch      
You can jump
I'll be there
I will be your safety net
You can jump
Even fail    

PreVs
V2
Crackle of fire
drizzle of rain 
cold and distant thunder
Now silence
Again and again and again

Ch2
You can jump
I'll be there
I will be your safety net
You can jump
Even fail    

V3
Falling, floating
Air rushes past
Sensation unfamiliar 
All stop 
Never and ever again  
Ch2
You can jump
I'll be there
I will be your safety net
You can jump
Even fail    
Outro
Even Fail
Even Fail
Even Fail

Lyrics below by Tony Harris - US
Melody, Vocals, Music & Mix by Mike Fox - UK

WHEN HE LOOKED IN THE MIRROW
ALL HE COULD SEE WAS SORROW
THE YEARS HAD TAKEN A TOLL
ON THIS MANS LONELY SOUL

THE YEARS HAD PASSED HIM BY
NOW HE WAS WANDERING WHY
HE NEVER STOPPED TO SMELL THE ROSES
AND MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICES

(CHORUS)
DON'T LOOK IN THE LOOKING GLASS
YOU MAY NOT LIKE WHAT YOU SEE
DON'T LOOK IN THE LOOKING GLASS
HE MAY LOOK JUST LIKE YOU AND ME

HE NEVER SPENT TIME WITH FAMILY
ONLY VISITING THEM OCCASIONALLY
ALWAYS MOVING FROM TOWN TO TOWN
WHEN NEEDED HE WAS NEVER AROUND

THE GRASS WAS ALWAYS GREENER
ALWAYS CONSIDERED A LONER
AND WHEN HE FOUND THE OTHERSIDE
HE NEVER SEEMED TO BE SATISFIED

(REPEAT CHORUS)

HIS BODY WAS LAID TO REST
UNDER THE BIG SKY OUT WEST
THE BURIAL PLACE IS UNKNOWN
SAD TO THINK THAT HE DIED ALL ALONE

(REPEAT CHORUS)
