Excellent song. Beautiful voice and perfect realization. Very nice work.

I really appreciate the subtle layers of percolating melody and rhythm. A touching poem too. This could almost be a lost Gentle Giant song.

Fabulous music and voice, lovely song, melodies and harmonies!

This is a song that started off as something else entirely different. Originally, it was a noodle that I recorded using a delay pedal. I gave it to Chris Maness, who put a killer bass lines on in. so, I went back and completely reimagined it as an actual song. I thought it sounded kinda swampy, so I thought of the most musical thing I could think of about a swamp. I remember the swarms of gnats that would form different patterns when I'd sing different vibrations at them. Hence, Dance of the Gnats.

V1:

 I let my thoughts wander
 Off into a different place
 Then I tried to redi-rect
 And think what might be ne-xt
 Mindful how the threads begin to fr-ay

 Ch1:

 But I'll find my safe harbour
 Called Utopia ('youtopia')
Gain my Shangri-La 

 V2:

 Sins and sorrows
 I aim to cast them all aside
 Won't bring me down
 Painting bl-ack
 My tomorrows
 As the dawn comes aro-und

 Ch2:

 Hit the free trail
 Blaze away
 Kick back and set sail

 Ch3:

 Find a true haven
 A roaming space
 Stay safe in the shade

 Bridge:

 Chasing nirvana in the middle of nowhere
 Mystical frequencies vibrating in the air
 Drifting through the great divide
 How I'm feeling energized:
 I'm so attracted there

 V3:

 Witness the seasons
 (All) change without our interven-tion
 Keep me guessing
 As I wander thro-ugh
 Every new dimen-sion

 Ch4:

 I'm transforming
 No storm warning
 Go exploring

 V4:

 And I don't seek a better grip
 On this now slipping situation
 Though it's getting out of hand
 For even if I could
 I would not unroll the dice
 Unplay the cards:
 I need a brave new start

Wander

Wander (lyrics Jay Rich)

ELLE S’APPELLE ELSPETH C’EST FOU CE QU’ELLE DÉVORE 
ELLE EST DE L’ESPÈCE DES SOURIS PAPIVORES
OTHELLO MACBETH COOPER FENIMORE
BIEN SÛR MONSIEUR TESTE AND SO MANY MORE

AND IN A WORLD OF WORDS SHE LIVES UNDER THE SPELL JUST LIKE A MILLION BIRDS QUI LA FRÔLENT DES AILES

PLEASED TO MEET ELSPETH
MAIS NI REGRETS NI REMORDS SHE’S ALREADY FOUND HER BEST FRIEND AND SO MUCH MORE
YOU LUCKY ANDY

ET DANS SON MONDE DE MOTS SON UNIVERS DE LETTRES 
C’EST DES MILLIONS D’OISEAUX QUI LA FRÔLENT PEUT-ÊTRE

COMMENT ELLE S’APPELLE ELLE S’APPELLE ELSPETH 
COMMENT ÇA S’ÉPELLE DON’T KNOW HOW TO SPELL 
AD LIB
AND IF YOU DON’T THINK PARIS WAS MADE FOR LOVE GIVE LONDON ONE MORE CHANCE

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. Oddrun Eikli and Debra Buesking

LYRICS 

8 billion people stopped praying today
Planes fell from the sky, fell like rain
Cars went crashing off of the roads
Tsunami waves landed on the coast

When I think how it ended tween you and me 
I begged the whole world to get back on their knees 
Please

Golden Gate Bridge is in the sea
The angels refused to intervene
The nations armies have gone to war
Those petty thoughts went out the door 

When I think how it ended tween you and me 
I begged the whole world to get back on their knees 
Please

Please forgive me for my selfish ways 
I know the whole world is falling away
My baby got caught up in this mess 
I didn’t try - didn’t do my best

When I think how it ended tween you and me 
I begged the whole world to get back on their knees 
Please

Begged the Whole World
