so beautiful, thank you for the journey of life in the beauty of your music.

Romantic and melancholic piece! Well done!

A lovely well arranged piece and a thoughtful project - enjoyed this a lot Pete :)

Deep music that speaks the words of emotions. I like!

Reminds me of rolling hills and a forest breeze. Effective orchestration and blending of themes

The message in this song is that there is strength in numbers, one voice by itself may not be heard, but a million voices must be heard. One raindrop by itself is lost but when million come together they form the mighty seas. I wanted to get a live feel from this song so i recorded the vocal and the guitar live in 1 take on my Zoom X5 then transferred the WAV file to the DAW where i put in some atmospheric voice synth, some acoustic Bass and some percussion. its one of the longest songs i have recorded as i generally believe that most people won't listen more than 3 minutes but hopefully there is enough in here to keep interest,  i really hope you like it and to help here are the words.


One voice in the wilderness, 
one raindrop falls from the sky 
One soul lost in the darkness,
 One tear drop falls from an eye 

Two voices join together and sing in harmony 
Two raindrops join together help to form  the sea 
Two souls finds each other floating in the sky 
Two tear drops fall together as somebody starts to cry 

3 voices shout for freedom all for one and one for all 
3 Raindrops turn to snow drops as they gently fall 
3 souls on the ground fell the gentle Snow 
3 tears freeze like icicles on the world below 

4 voices sound so beautiful as they together sing 
4 raindrops paly a magic scale as the church bells ring 
4 souls move together in perfect harmony 
4 tear drops cry for you and for me 

5 voices become a quire voices of all pitches 
5 Rains drops fall and form a stream running in the ditches 
5 souls join together to become a might forces 
5 tear drop fall full of remorse

Together we are  Stronger (There's strength in numbers)

The Cascade - a Trip through Time 

From first cry, to last breath,
our thoughts and feelings form 
the cascade we call life.

Day after day, hour after hour,
some grow stronger, whilst others fade,
an endless wave to journeys end
and in the end ...

are we but just a memory ?

Background

This track appeared as a result of some words created in December 2021, that followed on from similar set of words in the Metaphysical series.  As before, the words acted as a catalyst for a the orchestral piece. This track is now track three  of the ongoing 'Metaphysical' series.

This track has taken quite a while to arrive but I've finally got an ending I'm relatively happy with. Talking of the ending. it does feature a 'book-end' moment right at at the end that might be distressing to some. You have been warned. 

I must admit I quite like the idea of life being a collection of flowing and interlocking feelings and memories. I also felt I had to have the cry of a baby and a last breath to book-end this track.

The Cascade - A Trip Through Time

This song is for anyone who has been in a relationship with a narcissistic or toxic person. As anyone who has been in a relationship with a narcissist knows, it is incredibly painful. Years can be wasted staying stuck in the relationship triangle of frustration, self-pity or believing you can fix them. When you finally realize that the only way to move forward is to completely cut them out of your life forever you are on the first steps to freedom. Expressing the anger you feel from all the abuse and time wasted is the first step to healing. Hope this song can help you to feel it’s okay to be angry. 

Share this song with someone who needs to hear this.

I know… if I look away
I’m better off to see…
Time in a different way
And how it should be…
The minutes move so slowly
And sow their seeds…
Morning takes away the darkness
Eventually…

And if…I don’t miss the chance
To take it all in inside
Before walls come crumbling down
And we run and hide…
The hours show so little mercy 
Don’t you see
That we’re given what we need
Eventually…

The hours show so little mercy 
Don’t you see
That we’re given what we need
Eventually…

Eventually

Lyrics:

Where have I gone
What is left unsaid
What have I left behind
every time I closed my eyes

Everything is new
by grace I met you
And I swear
I won’t let you down

Now that we’re here
Forever more
Nothing was left behind
I swear
It’s all ahead

All that came before
All that passed me by
All of it led me here
By your side

I’ll let it all go
All the doubt and fear
the pain I kept inside
it wasn’t worth the time

What I thought I wanted
What I thought I lost
None of it ever
materialized

What I thought I knew
just a passing phase
I’ll let it all go
It wasn’t worth the time

Everything is new
by grace I met you
And I swear
I won’t let you down

Now that we’re here
Forever more
Nothing was left behind
I swear
It’s all ahead

All that came before
All that passed me by
All of it led me here
By your side
Everything is new by grace I met you
And I swear
I won’t let you down

Now that we’re here
Forever more Nothing was left behind 
It’s all ahead

All that came before
All that passed me by
All of it led me here

The Time Has Come

l am so happy to make Guitar Noises with these Two cool cool Dudes--What a TREAT! please take a listen to the original:):)     Texmex-shaman – Shrooms

Shrooms with TexMex Shaman & One Blind Mouse

I wasn't always an extraterrestrial
I was born on a world ten thousand light years away
In another spiral arm, but baby, who's to say
Where one arm ends and another one begins
I wasn't always an alien

Came to your planet to see how y'all were getting by
Seems like you're always low and never high
And I'm afraid to say your planet has failed the test
So we'll come back in eleven years and hope for the best
Maybe then you won't shoot our balloons down from the sky
Why are humans so violent?

And we're watching you from the depths of the night
You're like children playing with fire
And for your sake I hope you guys survive
Cause the next decade ain't gonna be an easy ride

So here's some advise for the storm
Cling close together to keep warm
Hold each other tight and be forewarned
That it gets colder
Before the summer

I Wasn't Always an Extraterrestrial
