Lifted

This song is actually one long outro.... at least that's how it began.

So I said
Give me your sorrow
It is a beauty
That I want
And though it makes you fail
And asks for everything
I'll only tend it lovingly

oooh oooh ooooh 
oooh oooh ooooh

And with your smile
A tender twilight dawn
Step in the past
With hands to make
As we're returning
Give me your sorrow
There is a beuuty I will make

oooh oooh oooh 
oooh oooh oooh

So I said Give me your sorrow
I'll only tend it lovingly
As we're returning
Give me your sorrow
There is a beauty I will make.

Give Me Your Sorrow

Buy me if you love me

NB: The germ of this song about my father, our relationship, and his unexpected passing in December, 2022, came about from listening to Garddwr Porffor's instrumental track, Tune for Mam and Dad, which he wrote to commemorate his parents' passing about five years ago. As the song had no words, I asked him if he would be okay with my transforming it into a piece about my father, and he kindly consented, and subsequently added its beautiful and sensitive introduction, and adjusted aspects of the track to serve the prose and my voice. 
Although I still feel like a magpie stealing a shiny treasure and making use of it for myself, this feeling is mitigated somewhat by something @garddwrporffor once pointed out... that collaborations are magic, as they transform one thing into something entirely different! 
His original track is available to listen to here, with the note he added, "Fathers day today, remembering my lovely father and mother.": https://soundcloud.com/garddwrporffor/tune-for-mam-and-dad-remaster

Eulogy for a Father
by Nadia Selvaggi

Golden-haired cherub on a glass plate 
his boyhood's thorns to shape my fate
The branch extended over oceans
he refused to take
A life lived for himself alone
he did make

The warmth of his tone
spun from a frigid heart
Replete with resentment
kept us apart
The whisper of a bond
strengthened only by death
And the blood of his seed flows on

Ancient memories flicker and storm
becoming parables for the world
Providing comfort
softening sorrow's shadows
Set adrift upon waves of time's passing

Eulogy for a Father by Garddwr Porffor & Nadia Selvaggi

An Jazz song track inspired by one of the very 
beautiful photos brought back by Julie during a recent 
trip to Thailand.
Many thanks to Julie.

Un titre Jazz inspiré d'une des très
belles photos rapportées par Julie lors d'un récent
voyage en Thaïlande.
Un grand merci à Julie.

---- Effet Mer  -----

C'est à désespérer des hommes,
Eve n'aurait jamais dû croquer la pomme,
On serait rester soi-disant sauvages,
on aurait pas vécu tous ces ravages,
cueillir les fruits du plaisir,
il y avait tant de belles histoires à écrire,
n'écouter que le son de la pluie et du vent,
sans se soucier du temps,
on aurait jamais dit c'était mieux avant,
en fixant éternellement l'instant...

This round I'm covering a Japanese pop song.
The problem is, I don't know Japanese but I really like the music.
The original was performed by veteran singer-songwriter Hideaki Tokunaga.  
I kind of shifted a little bit towards country pop in my arrangement and added an outro sax for completeness.  Just see what you think.

Apology to my Japanese friends for my probable weird pronunciation.

[LYRICS per Google Translation]
For you
I do not mind staying in my memories
For you
Transparently, I love you

Easy eyes are created
I keep silent in that sky
Even if you do not miss a mystery love
Now I can not find a night here

For you 
I'm looking at a dream I have never seen before.
For you
Close your eyes, I love you

As the moment of two people runs out 
the troublesome thing to wear on your body
I can show you through

A desperate thought has risen up in that
All goes on to love as it is

For you
I do not mind having even my memories
For you
Transparently, I love you

[ORIGINAL LYRICS]
あなたのために hu hu
想い出さえも 舍てて かまわない
あなたのために huhu
透きとおって I love you

やさしい目が 创りだす
その空气に 默り迂む
ミステリーな恋  愉しんでも
探せない夜が いま ここに  

あなたのために huhu
见たことのない 梦を见つめてる 
あなたのために
目を闭じて I Love You

二人になる瞬间へ
走りだして 行くために
身に振りかかる わずらわしさ 
突き拔けてみせる いつ だって 

沸き起こる とりとめない想い
すべて 爱しさへ つづく

あなたのために ya ha
想い出さえも 舍てて かまわない
あなたのために ya ha
透きとおって I Love You

For You  (Anata no Tameni)  Cover

This is a song Chris wrote and asked me to play on. I love the lyrics and how they match the vibe of the song perfectly. He's playing guitar and bass, and I'm on the piano, slide, and organ. He told me it's supposed to be a whisper beneath the giant's bed as they tiptoe around under him, and that I should leave space for his breaths. I immensely enjoyed making this song with Chris, as always. Here are the lyrics. We hope you enjoy it. Wonderful lullaby, too. I've been listening to it in bed right before I go to sleep. Try it!
I played the piano on this. Chris played the guitar, sang it, and produced it. 

You need to be quiet, 
you don't want to wake, the sleeping giant. 
When you go, tip toe, around his bed so, you don't wake that tyrant. 
(hmmm hmmm hmmm) x 2 
I think it's time now, 
We can change his mind around, 
the stupid giant. 
I'll whisper in his ear, 
we're the only one's he should fear.
There's far too many of us, you don't need to cause a fuss or be defiant.
(instrumental-ish) into trippy part
(hmmm hmmm hmmm) x 1
So when you wake tomorrow,
you'll be filled with sorrow.
You're just a giant.
