Just hearing this one for the first time. This is so wonderful!!! Love it!!!

Listening to this I think you would do brilliantly doing some American Christmas standards. Always so enjoyable hearing you. Snyggt som vanligt!

One of my favorite poems...Beautiful performance and production!

Wonderful sounds by two of my favorite artists. Kudos to you both. Hope you'll look up my new SC site, and join me there. I would love to collaborate. Has been a tough year, but I'm now back doing what I love. Singing.

What a wonderful piece of music. Incredibly well performed by both of you. Your voice is beautiful!

Daily Drops

This is a remix of my first vocal offering which I originally released over 10 years ago. Some of the original (free) VST's have faded from existence so I worked with a few of my current favourites and one new one. By now I had switched to a Strat guitar and this is undoubtedly one of my better, more fluid leads. At the time, I was also experimenting with keyboards and was really just getting comfortable using two hands (rather than 2 fingers). Also at this time, I was getting comfortable using Cuckos Reaper. As for lyrics, they just came from the mood of the tune. Everything is drawn from life experiences, so a "cut and paste" of some old, but not forgotten, memories. I'm not sure why I chose the 3rd person to express these images. 

Broken Dreams
---------------------

[INTRO/SOLO]

You wake up from a nightmare ...
Or was that real?
Somehow you can't get out of bed
Fingers too numb to feel.

Sun coming through the window
But there's no heat.
Now, the silence is deafening
Not a sound from the street.

[SOLO]

Sweet smells from the pillow
As you turn in bed.
Memories of warm embraces
Filter through your head.

No matter now, the bed is cold.
The covers are all grey.
The memories still linger
Of a love that did not stay.

[OUTRO/SOLO]

Life is one big adventure. There are many challenges to overcome, many paths to take, many decisions to make. Pursue your goal even if it is difficult or precisely because it is difficult. And when you have achieved it, you will look for the next adventure.

This is a track I put together real quick for a music podcast called The Cosmic Bos MMC (Monthly Music Challenge) They have a song of the month challenge where you compose and submit a song each month and they play it on the podcast with the goal of releasing an album at the end of the year.  This was for Feb and the theme for the show was #happy.  It's short and sweet and the first non-collab in a while. Popped a string around 1:25


Lyrix: 
Happy 

You know I aspire to happiness 
It’s the one key thing that matters … to me in life 

It’s a happy ending to our story 
Yeahhhh

Poem: Robert Frost (1874-1963)

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening

Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

Robert Lee Frost (født 26. mars 1874 i San Francisco i California, død 29. januar 1963 i Boston i Massachusetts) var en amerikansk poet. Han ble tildelt Pulitzerprisen fire ganger, henholdsvis i 1924, 1931, 1937 og 1943.

"For My Lady" is a song written by Ray Thomas that was released on the Moody Blues 1972 album Seventh Sojourn. It was also released as the B-side to the single "I'm Just a Singer (In a Rock and Roll Band)"
The lyrics to "For My Lady" are about the singer's desire for true love.The lyrics may have been inspired by Thomas' recent divorce at the time he wrote the song.

Music journalist Geoffrey Freakes described "For My Lady" as an "uncomplicated, uncluttered and blissfully romantic song" that is "supremely elegant." Moody Blues biographer Marc Cushman felt that "the melody and heartfelt vocal performance convey a sadness despite the positive nature of the lyrics. Tampa Tribune critic Ralph Harold described the song as "an elegant love song, almost Elizabethan, although somewhat gimmicky with a cymbal sound of ocean waves and a nautical harmonica and organ background.

At one point Justin Hayward plays a guitar note that had some listeners thinking that the guitar string broke. But according to Hayward that it was not a broken string but merely an emphasized pluck to accompany the lyrics "and slowly bow her head."                          Wikipedia

When Hope Floats Beyond Hell

Impending Danger At Sea

THIS IS AN OPEN SOURCE SONG WITH OPEN RIGHTS TO COVER!
 Melania et al  (Playing Along) Open Source Cover 4U
by The Indivisibles
I fell for a liar, the worst kind of soul
Silver tongue, heart made of coal
He’s got the key that locks the door
And I keep crawling back for more
I dress my shame in Sunday best
Smile wide, ignore the rest
Just to earn a glance, a favor
In the new lie born today
🎶 Playing along, no matter how dark it gets
Buying in, 'cause you hold all the bets
I know I’m bound for hell, but I’ll pay that price
If playing along gets me through one more night
Makes them think I’m okay with the wrong that never ends
In this life where we pretend and play along 🎶
You preach with fire, then steal with grace
I watch you smile and change your face
You bless the broken, curse the brave
And I just nod, become your slave
I used to fight, I used to cry
Now I just laugh and pass the wine
I’m the fool who knows the game
But still shows up to play
🎶 When did I become so weak?
When did I let myself become a fool?
When did I accept being just another tool
In the toolbox of corruption I live in every day?
When did every moral fiber in my soul melt away? 🎶
I see the cracks, I hear the screams
But I trade truth for quiet dreams
I wear your sins like second skin
And call it love, again and again
You build your throne on broken backs
And I just help you hide the tracks
I’m not blind, I’m not naive
I’m just too tired to leave
🎶 Playing along, no matter how dark it gets
Buying in, 'cause you hold all the bets
I know I’m bound for hell, but I’ll pay that price
If playing along gets me through one more night
Makes them think I’m okay with the wrong that never ends
In this life where we pretend and play along 🎶
🎶 Playing along...
Just playing along...
God help me, I’m still playing along 🎶

🎶 Playing along  by The Indivisibles

This is a song by chairhouse of Tokyo who was generous in allowing me to arrange and record it for guitar. His music is one of the gems of soundcloud. He calls his musical project "Piano Ten Thousand Leaves", based on an ancient anthology of Japanese poems. His mission “is to create gentle, calm, peaceful, beautiful, relaxing piano music and share it with all human beings." He writes, records and posts one beautiful piano composition a day and has not missed a day since he started the project on February 2, 2014. His goal is 4,536 songs. This song is number 1,479 which he posted on January 2, 2018. I admire his music enormously and look forward to each of his daily compositions. Hopefully I do him justice with my version here. 

Please visit and listen to his original piano version here: https://soundcloud.com/chairhouse/the-bottle-unopened-and-glasses-empty-1479-by-chair-house-1022019

there is an orchestrated version i have posted here:
