Much imagination here, and it all sounds great. There is almost a Blue Nile quality about it, and for me, that is a great thing!

What a beautiful track, Paul and co....really love that cool vocal especially...!!!

This song centers on how relationships can help us to endure the lack of trust caused by the ever present intrusions of technology.

You've Got To Believe in Something

Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
You believe
Moon landing never happened

That Earth is flat
‘Cause you’ve read it from a social network

For sure, jets release chemical trails
U.F.O. spaceship are stored at Area 51

And the world is controlled by a secret society
J.F.K. and Marilyn's death is a broader plot

What about 9/11 ?
Was it planned by the U.S. government ?
Do you really believe all of those
conspiracy stories for dummies ?

[Chorus]
Global conspiracy
Secret society
Flat Earth conspiracy
Stupid theory
Earthling conspiracy
Illuminati
Alien conspiracy
Science-Fiction story

[Verse 2]
You believe
that they are among us

blood drinking flesh-eating
shape-shifting extraterrestrial

For sure, those reptilians humanoid
with there cold blooded head wants to enslave the human race

They are our leaders
our corporate executives
our actors and singers
they control the world

What about 9/11 ?
Was it planned by the alien leaders ?
Do you really believe all of those
conspiracy stories for dummies ?

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Now admit
Moon landing has happened

The Earth is a sphere
and start reading scientific books

For sure, jets do not release chemicals
U.F.O. spaceship are not hidden in Area 51

And the world is not controlled by a secret society
J.F.K. and Marilyn's death is not a broader plot

And about 9/11
It was not planned by the U.S. government
Do you really believe all of those
conspiracy stories for dummies ?

[Chorus]

Alien Conspiracy

Rendition of “Green Eyed Gal” by Ben Tod and LDSB

The Battle of Gettysburg, fought from July 1 to July 3, 1863, stands as the most pivotal engagement of the American Civil War. Here are the key details:
* Context: After a resounding victory over Union forces at Chancellorsville, General Robert E. Lee led his Army of Northern Virginia into Pennsylvania in late June 1863
* Location: The battle unfolded in the crossroads town of Gettysburg
* Opposing Forces: The advancing Confederates clashed with the Union’s Army of the Potomac, commanded by General George G. Meade
* Intense Fighting: The battle spanned three days, with heavy fighting on both sides
* Pivotal Moment: On July 3, Lee ordered an attack known as “Pickett’s Charge”, where fewer than 15,000 Confederate troops attempted to pierce the Union lines at Cemetery Ridge. Despite briefly breaking through, the assault ultimately failed, resulting in thousands of rebel casualties
* Outcome: Lee was forced to withdraw his battered army toward Virginia on July 4, leaving the dead, dying and wounded to perish in the killing fields and forests. The Union emerged victorious, marking a major turning point by halting Lee’s invasion of the North
* Significance: President Abraham Lincoln’s “Gettysburg Address” immortalized this battle as one of the most famous speeches of all time
Casualties:
* Union: 23,049 (3,155 dead, 14,529 wounded, 5,365 missing).
* Confederacy: 28,063 (3,903 dead, 18,735 injured, 5,425 missing) 
The Battle of Gettysburg remains etched in history as a critical moment that shaped the course of the Civil War

I can’t see over the Southhampton hedges, it’s good to be taken seriously, but no more serious then you are, there’s the sound of a festival in the street, see all the skinny people eating ice cream- it sure is heaven when you’re not in hell.

The relaxed atmosphere by the lake and at dusk: It's like the embrace of nature that touches the soul and relaxes the mind

Struggle and live...

Sunday Reheated

Is there a reason, that we cannot find;
Why all the people, are losing their minds?
What is the truth, or is there no such thing;
Can you believe, in anything?

He's the man, with the exploding brain
And he's worried - that he's going insane
He is the man, with the exploding brain
And he's worries - that he's going insane

Outside his window, there are people to fear
Inside his house, there is no one here
No questions, or they'll find you out
No thinking, thinking leads to doubt

Coz he's the man, with the exploding brain
And he's worried, that he's going insane
He is the man, with the exploding brain
And he's worried, that he's going insane


And now it's over, we can be normal and new
We've got machines to tell us what is true
We've done things, that we all regret
So it's time, to forgive and forget

Coz he's the man, with the exploding brain
And he's worried, that he's going insane
He is the man, with the exploding brain
And he's worried, that he's going insane
