Slide Guitar Anthem

This song was inspired by "The Cold Heart" (German: Das kalte Herz), a fairy tale written by Wilhelm Hauff. It was published in 1827 in a collection of fairy tales that take place within the narrative of The Spessart Inn.
Although written almost 200 years ago, the described conflicts of mankind are still up-to-date, maybe even more than before. Preferring status und prosperity over humanity is something which has become socially accepted.

Special thanks for prelistening and precious ideas to my dear friend Gary Reeves!

Lyrics
Peter was in the charcoal business
never in peace with the live he was living
made a deal with the forest spirit
Three wishes and a new life given

Descending to the darkest corners of humanity
what was it you were thinking of when you lost your pity
 
Inside your stone cold heart
You‘ve built a world of disregard

It did not play out like you were whishing for
glassworks went down and you needed much more
sold your heart to Dutch Mike to keep living
a heart of stone and the fortune you were given

Descending to the darkest corners of humanity
what was it you were thinking of when you lost your pity

Inside your stone cold heart
You‘ve built a world of disregard

Flourishing business kept you going
but your smile was eternally frozen
when your drivers faded and you had murdered love
nothing left there but an empty heart

Descending to the darkest corners of humanity
what was it you were thinking of when you lost your pity

Inside your stone cold heart
You‘ve built a world of disregard

Stone Cold Heart

Welcome to EchoLandia! 

... where I hope you meet an echo of yourself on the dance floor. 

Open to critical feedback on the production and mixing. Wanted the bass to be clearer and drums sharper. But got tired of tweaking knobs.

New Slinkys on. Schweeeeeeeeet

We are tuned to 444Hz A... The first time I've gone straight for that tuning on new strings I think.

Tempo 71 bpm

The pic is the lyrics and all the leaves we collected today in the pic. We are very lucky, the woods is a 5 min walk from where we live.

Picture This is an incredible plant identifier app if you haven't heard of that it's well worth getting for learning what you are looking at.

Lyrics

Hey my Loves
Check... Signed out!
Let's walk in nature and stop the shout
To the trees with love we picture this
Let's learn the leaves and aborb bliss

Hey flashy 'Male Fern' calm us now
Good 'Common Elder' takes a bow
Giving us worth wows 'English Ivy'
'Common Hazel shows real mighty

'Hawthorn' talks to nature walk
'Sessile Oak' accepts no balk
'Honeysuckle' soothes our scene
'Euro Beech' give kids new dream

The greatest 'Gorse' you carve our course
'Mountain Ash' beamed quick from source
Ah, 'Lady Fern', I never knew...
Aside 'Holly' prickly Christmas clue

Spruced 'Douglas Fir' pined always green
New 'Red Raspberry' wild and clean
Blue 'English Oak' mourns old theft ' knows
Flanked by 'Jetbead' might as rose

Why weep dear 'Birch you Silver' lady
Friend 'Downy Birch' lined walnut wavey
Aced 'Maple of Field' soapberry knowledge
To 'Norway Acer Maple' leaf foraged

What a walk
Thank you Nature
You calmed us down
You talk much greater
We learn you more and have more spine
This nature walk through real divine

ah yeah ah yeah

Hugging Trees foraging leaves
The truest love now calm my kids, good seeds
Nature walk fix our talk
With child's play we stalk with light
To darkness, We balk

Ah yeah, Ah yeah



Something I learned...
I assumed when I noticed Male fern and Lady fern that these were dioecious plants but thats not the case. They can hybridize as explained below but they are not seperate male and female plants as I assumed when I noticed the two today...

Male fern and lady fern are distinct fern species with notable differences in appearance and habitat preferences. Male fern (Dryopteris filix-mas) is a robust, larger fern with deep green, lance-shaped fronds, often found in woodlands and hedgerows. Lady fern (Athyrium filix-femina), on the other hand, is generally more delicate, with a finer texture and a lighter green color. It thrives in damp, shady conditions, often near water. 

Ferns reproduce through both sexual and asexual methods. Sexually, they reproduce using spores, which develop into a small, heart-shaped structure called a gametophyte. This gametophyte produces sperm and eggs, and fertilization results in a new fern plant. Asexually, ferns can reproduce through vegetative cloning, where new plants grow from rhizomes or by the tips of their fronds touching the ground and rooting. 

Ferns can hybridize through the fusion of gametes (sperm and egg) from different species, often occurring when spores from different ferns land and germinate in the same area. Hybridization can also be facilitated by apomixis, a form of asexual reproduction where unreduced spores (with the same chromosome number as the parent sporophyte) are produced, leading to the formation of a new sporophyte without sexual reproduction.

Nature Walk

I came across the page of Natalie (Caught in a Moment) https://soundcloud.com/missx-3 and instantly fell in love with her voice and music. 

The original song was a live-recording of Natalie's voice and piano. 
https://soundcloud.com/missx-3/peace-of-mind-theres-hope
I added a few things to make a duet version out of it. Here is the result, I hope you enjoy. Sound quality is limited due to live recording and the necessity to split it up in stems to re-mix it. Hope you don't mind.

Caught in a moment - vocals, piano, composition, lyrics.
BeSinger - vocals, guitars, lapsteel, strings, rearrangement.

Lyrics

I can read your mind
its the calm after the storm
it was breaking us
but will never reach our souls

theres a peace of mind
one I never thought Id find
so glorious
all my doubts have turned to dust

never seemed so bright
we're the a calm after the night
for that distant light
its so worth to face all fights

never seemed so bright
though I never thought Id find
so glorious
all my fears are made of dust

Theres hope!

Zombies Never Sleep

Per concludere ho scambiato fra loro le parti iniziali della mano sinistra e della mano destra.

To conclude I swapped the initial parts of the left hand and the right hand.

Ho cambiato il titolo iniziale in:
"Toccata pantonale senza respiro"
da  "Toccata pantonale senza sosta".

I changed the original title to:
"Pantonal Toccata without breath"
from "Pantonal Toccata without pause".

Toccata pantonale senza sosta

"Toccata" pantonale senza respiro (Pantonal "Toccata" without breath)

There is light at the end of the darkened tunnel. No matter what happens in life hopefully there is a way to find happiness! 




Yon wind howls o'er the craggy hill
 The heather bends But it won’t be still 
A wee bairn cries doon by the burn 
Auld ghosts linger They ne’er return  

Dinnae fash The stars will guide 
The tide it turns Nae need tae hide  

Under the heather moon We’ll bide 
Wi' secrets whispered Side by side 
Oor hearts beat wild Wi' love sae true
 Forever lost under skies sae blue  

Auld stones watch fae the ancient glen 
Whisperin' tales o’ forgotten men 
The bracken dances A fiery sea 
Hame feels far But ye're here wi’ me  

Under the heather moon We’ll bide 
Wi' secrets whispered Side by side 
Oor hearts beat wild Wi' love sae true 
Forever lost under skies sae blue  

The world may crumble Hills may fall 
But in yer arms I’ll brave it all 
The loch may freeze The trees may bow
 But love like this It won’t break now

Under the heather moon .mp3
