Love and Friendship
BY EMILY BRONTË
Love is like the wild rose-briar,
Friendship like the holly-tree—
The holly is dark when the rose-briar blooms
But which will bloom most constantly?

The wild rose-briar is sweet in spring,
Its summer blossoms scent the air;
Yet wait till winter comes again
And who will call the wild-briar fair?

Then scorn the silly rose-wreath now
And deck thee with the holly’s sheen,
That when December blights thy brow
He still may leave thy garland green.

Love and Friendship. Debra Buesking and Oddrun Eikli.

This song was inspired by a conversation with https://soundcloud.com/roger-b-train 
He had taken an amazing picture of a giant flock of crows in the sky. We were sharing thoughts of the symbolism of the crows at the end of summer. Parts of the lyrics are taken from the original chat. 
Thank you for listening :)

Lyrics:
"The crows will be coming again soon
Crops getting closer to be taken down 
Crazy sight to see day after day until solstice" (Rogers words)
"I hear, i can hear them coming
In my garden the harvest is done
Morning dew don´t vanish anymore
Mother nature ist tired
Light gets more pale and soon the dark days are there" (my words)
I´m still excited about the circle of the year from solstice to solstice
Crows will be coming soon
Foggy days, deep sun, long shadows
Old summer is like the last hug of a beloved grandma, 
We don´t want to let go. But we know she´ll be gone soon.

The Crows

Neli CoKo - The Crows

Started life as an acoustic demo. Last month I pulled it out and built a groove around it…and voila! Light, and slightly tongue-in-cheek, a joyful tune about falling in love on New Year’s Eve. The poppiest thing I’ve posted. Vocals shared by Roger S., Jen D B, and myself.

Eleven Fifty Nine

Cast of Characters:

TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen–acoustic and electric guitars, mix, and production

J.J. Terrell–@j-j-terrell –piano, synth, composition, vocals, and lyrics

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

Llanpsych–@llanpsych –Tez–electric guitar

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1–five-string fretless bass and lap steel


  This song began its life as a composition that JJ wrote one evening on the piano and synth. He also wrote the lyrics and sings this one. He was very excited to share it with us, so he invited me, Ken, Stephen and Tez into the project immediately after finishing. However, we couldn't make the thing work at first, so JJ went back and retooled it, streamlined it, and gave it back to us. We all really liked the Floydiness of the groove, and his signature psychedelic coda ending. 
  After Ken had laid down his inspired, foundational  drums, I laid down my bass part with my big monster five-string bass, which is good for really low tones. Then it was Tez's turn. He came up with something very Gilmore-esque, with his always exciting leads throughout the first section. Stephen then added some brilliant, filling acoustic guitar to the first section. He, along with Tez, also added some trippy electric guitar to the coda. Finally, Josh just thought it needed something to push the coda over the edge, so he added the slide at the end, too.
  Then, of course, we asked Stephen to produce and mix it for us, which he did in his always expert way. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it. Also, we wish a very happy New Year to everyone! 
JJ's lyrics:

PUSHED AND PULLED AND SWUNG THE CLEAVER
MY TIME IT RAN AWAY.
FOOLISH HEART AND SOME DECEIVIN’
DIE TRYIN’ TO STAY AFRAID

DESERT CHILL IS WHERE IM SLEEPIN’
HARD NIGHT TURNED INTO DAYS
BETTER GO AND FEED THIS FEVER
TWICE BLINDED BY THIS FAITH

SHOULD’VE KNOWN WHILST IN THE SEASON
BEHIND BLIND BRAVEITY
TRUTH COMES HOME TO ROOST THE RAVEN
FIVE STEINS MADE OF JADE

TREASURED HILL THE SUNS RETREATIN’
CARD PLAYED YOUR HANDS AN ACE
LET IT GO THIS BIRD IS DREAMIN’
DICE LANDED AT THE TRAIN

COULD’VE SHOWN MY HEART’S REATREATIN’
BLIND SIDED BY THE SEA
PLEASURED TONE OF THE BALLADEER
FIND A HIGH AND LONELEY PLACE

SEED IS SOWN THIS HEART’S STILL BEATIN’
FIVE LIONS IN THE DEN
GETTIN’ COLD THE BEAST IS LEAVING
SOUTH BOUND IT ALL THE WAY

Red Sun (Eclectic Collective)

I’ve been living this life … for so long, 
Still ain’t… used … to being myself. 
There’s a lot of things … I’m sorry for what I’ve done. 
Sometimes…I’d trade all my tomorrows, 
To live … one day … of yesterday 
But that ain’t happenin’ … no matter how I try ,all I get is, 
Regrets… Sorrys, …and Whys 

Angry at a lot of things …so sorry …for some 
But it’s too late  to change the past.
Can’t erase the things that’s done. 
Baby, …If I hurt, you even once  …made you cry,
I’d do anything I could …to make it right. 

You asked me WHY so many times,  
Why … I would never settle down. 
I always told you …why,  “WHY you need to do this now”? 
So, you left me … now I’m alone. 
Guess you answered … me so well. 
You left me standing there, with one last word GOODBYE, and all my, 
Regrets… Sorrys, …and Why’s. 

Why was I so foolish? Look at what I’ve done. 
Had the whole world in my hand, 
Can’t outrun the past I’ve run. 
I’d turn the clock back, … to begin, … here tonight. 
So, I’m writing you this song with words I cry. (this time I cry)
Can’t find enough words… in my emptiness, …tonight, 
to make it right, … to make it right. 
Just my, … Regrets, …  Sorrys and Why’s …(wo, wo, wo, why’s). 
MY  REGRETS, …, MY SORRYS, … and … WHY’S.

Regrets, Sorrys, and Why (still Rough 2nd take)
