Beyond a peradventure, I would have enjoyed this track more....were I not so relentlessly shallow

This music suits your vox.  So good.  Can't believe those high notes!

Great track, your vocal technique impresses me!

fascinating work....sounds like a Catholic liturgy over a Radio Head track

That's lovely - you both are clearly having fun with this strange mixture of classical and rocky music and lyrics - and wow, it's easy to put a lot of interpretation in it... That's how music should be, thank you for sharing 🙏

There is good and evil in each of us. We see this every day, looking inside ourselves, into our heart, into our soul, into our inner mirrors. Sometimes we see good there, but sometimes evil.  I want to dedicate this track to all the good people who gave their lives in this eternal war. In a sense, this track is a requiem for the passing World, as I knew it.

Inner Mirrors

A big thank you to https://soundcloud.com/joerxworx for playing nearly all instruments, arranging and mixing, it was a  pleasure to collab.

Lines in inverted commas quote René Girard (1923 - 2015), also the title of the song points to him.

Mimetic Desire

Man is the creature
Man is the creature

„Man is the creature
Who does not know
What to desire,
And he turns to others
In order to make up his mind.“ (2)

Don't let the darkness blind you
Don’t let the blindness guide you
Even if it is full of shiny, 
Mimetic desires

Maybe there is still 
A shadow of a hope out there
Isn’t there still somewhere
A shadow of a hope ?

Let me have it, let me, let me have it
Let me have it, let me, let me have it

Don't let the darkness blind you
Don’t let the blindness guide you
Even if it is full of shiny, 
Sparkling, mimetic desires

„We desire 
What others desire
Because we imitate 
Their desires."

Maybe there is still 
A shadow of a hope out there
Isn’t there still somewhere hanging out
A shadow of a hope ?

Man is the creature…
Man is the creature…

Don't let the darkness blind you
Don't let the blindness guide you
Don’t let the darkness blind you…

Mimetic Desire (ft joerxworx)

This is re-recorded version of this song. I wanted to make my vocals clearer and powerful. How do you feel? If it’s a bit better I’ll be happy!  And I added some arrangements. Please listen this version, thank you!   August 28th 2023

I made this song while the time of pandemic. This is a kind of requiem…believing in the spirit

Lyrics
Maybe I just want to see
When we’re together along
Still my eyeing keep on always

How I save your life?
There's oceans lie to see
I will be waiting for...
Couldn’t save your life

Horizon far away stands before me
Dreaming on about down befalling
Closing my eyes in too darkness
What do you see? because I cant tell you how…
 I know we won’t cry
 I heard your voice with no sound

——————————————————————
Maybe I just want to see you again
When we’re together along
Still my eyeing keep on always

How I save your life?
There's oceans lie to see
I will be waiting for...
Couldn’t save your life

Horizon far away stands before me
Dreaming on about down befalling
Closing my eyes in too darkness
What do you see? because I cant tell you how…
 I know we won’t cry
 I heard your voice with no sound
So it tears me upside down
 I heard your voice is no sound

Mean Streets (Torbjørn Vagle  - Jimmy Rivas - Dairv Dubbleyew)

I'm very pleased to get to work with Karl's music yet again as we have collaborated on many projects together. When I first heard 'Haust' (Icelandic for Autumn), I was haunted by the richness of the bowed sound and the grinding industrial textures that spoke to me about the extreme environment in Iceland (https://soundcloud.com/sesar/haust). I asked Karl if I could contribute and a few weeks later I'm proud to present our 8th collaboration.

What was grey becomes black, 
That sinking feeling, 
As darkness falls, 
Dark falls.  

Dawn's late, later still, 
That sinking feeling, 
As darkness falls, 
Dark falls.  

Grey to black as darkness falls.

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

Kyrie Eleison, Kyrie Eleison
Smooth down your lily white vestments
straighten your Roman collar
and stretch out your smile
and offer a stranger a pious bow
Modern disciple of Jesus
please do make an appointment
Read the sign --
there's no parking outside after five!
Pastoral man with a vision
Look, he's feeding the hungry!
But just don't get too close
and take your sandwich outside
It is after five --
you made me cry, you made me cry!
All Are Welcome
but not you, you dishonorable slime!
All Are Welcome
but not you, you disobedient swine!
(Shake off the dust from your feet when you leave.)
Rector of state sanctioned morals
handed pre-approved causes
You're a doctor
but don't heal the lame or the sick
You're a sinner, goodbye!
(Take heed St. Paul, take heed lest you fall.)
(Lord Have Mercy)
Kyrie Eleison

The Time Has Come

Settling down on a bench in the Winter Garden in the centre of the Yorkshire city of Sheffield, a curious relaxed state can  occur. The sound is somehow muffled due to the plants and trees in this vast glass house.
Fan Palms rise up above the visitors, their leaves like giant hands in a weird greeting of peace.
