A New Beginning - sixth part of the reworked cinematic musical suite based on my original theatrical Cirque style show: Regalia - The Enchanted Forest, which was initially performed at the Bali Safari and Marine Park in 2011. The new ethnic infused World music score has been crafted around sophisticated and powerful hybrid orchestral compositions by my friends at IPI Music.

Arabic to English Translation:
---- Oh, Night - Oh, My Eyes 
Night passes and day arrives 
My heart desired you from its core 
If the world ends and stars disappear 
Words will not suffice to reveal my love 
---- Oh, my love - Oh, light of to my eyes 
My love above all creation 
My love everlasting, strong like fire 
I met you on a day in past times 
Your face shall still brightly shine 
Everlasting love and kindness 
---- Oh, my love - Oh, light to my eyes 
Love that lasts, lasts and lasts 
Do you see me, do you want me? 
Tenderness in your face, life in your soul 
Lighting up my world, lighting up life 
(A story like no other, a story without an end)
---- Oh, my love  - Oh, light to my eyes 

Arranged, produced, mixed and mastered by Peter Heckmann.

A New Beginning (feat. Ethnic World Orchestra)

Well I almost scrapped this song but after 3 weeks writing words, and then realizing how fun it is to sing, i kept it. I'm trying to figure out how to add a little lightheartedness to my music, but i think this one just turned out creepy lol. NOTE:  I always felt a little uncomfortable with the words, i just really didn't like them, so I reworked the chorus and a few other lines, and rerecorded the vocals. It seems a little better now...
 

I've seen my own worst enemy
Every night just staring back at me
Through the mirror with such animosity
And baby, it drives me crazy
I don’t understand what’s with this guy,
He don’t know that he’s alive
He combs his hair on the wrong side

I don’t expect you to understand,
But I’ve got these hammers for my hands
I like to start with everything
and smash away what I don’t need
and scattered all around are the pieces off of me
oh baby can’t you see what this done has to me

It’s a strange strange situation 
I need a little information
If it’s real or just imagination
Don’t say it’s so, I can’t believe 
Its down to you and me again
Up against the world my friend
Who can say   how this will end
 
It’s 3am and you’re slamming doors
Cause ‘I don’t speak your language anymore’
While I’m on my knees picking pieces
Of me up off the floor, 
I can’t lose much more, these pieces could be the last of me,
I wish I could see the way you see
is there anything left in this debris

Lyrics:

I’m a veteran  of the psychic war
Never before have I been so happy on the sidelines
Far away
I’ve found a place to stay
I’ve found a place to stay

And when I look back now
There is no cure
For the cruel existence we endured
We endured

I’m a veteran of the psychic war
Never before have I been so happy on the sidelines
Far away
I’ve found a place that I can stay
On Neptune 17
Hiding from the all seeing machine
It tracks you, it drags you down
I’m lost, can I be found?
I’m lost, I don’t want to be found

And when I look back now
There is no cure
For the cruel existence we endured
We endured

And now times have changed
This space machine will help me make it to the end
To the end

I’m a veteran of the psychic war
Never before have I been so happy on the sidelines
Far away
I’ve found a place that I can stay
On Neptune 17
Hiding from the all seeing machine
It tracks you, it drags you down
I’m lost, can I be found?
I’m lost, I don’t want to be found

Remember Me

Inside I am a 
raging inferno

no one sees it

I fool them with
My undercover
Breath

I could be satiated by
this raining madness

Remember me

the woman who
speaks in
fragments of 
the moon

showing mercy
with the tongue of 
ancient reeds

Water meeting fire
in my throat

Remember Me

Tidal Wave (Lyrics)

I remember when we ran away
I took your hand Kissed your smiling face
Stepping out to a new day rising sun
We'd spend our days throwing skimming stones
We made a wish only we would know
Summertime how the days went on and on

You're washing over me
Like a tidal wave
You're washing over me
Ooh like a tidal wave
I'm drifting all the way yeah

We made a bed on an empty beach
We sang and danced we were young and free
Time goes by You stay in my memory

You're washing over me
Like a tidal wave
You're washing over me
Ooh like a tidal wave
You're washing over me
Like a tidal wave
You're washing over me
Ooh like a tidal wave
I'm drifting all the way yeah

It's like a tidal wave when i see your face
It's like a tidal wave when i see your face
It's like a tidal wave when i see your face
It's like a tidal wave when i see your face

- Lyrics -
The Snowfall
Sprinkles hope and light
Crystals in a sparkling flight
Snowbirds
Flashing up into the air
Sweet, soft, without fear
Rustling down
In winter wind
Waiting for the Joy of Spring
Snowfall ...

Snowfall. Feat. Syrel and Oddrun Eikli

I was delighted when https://soundcloud.com/jonathan_beckenstein accepted this request, fully expecting a return  before Christmas, I was blown away when it came back within the hour.

Special mention to Yaron Engler who rescued me  from a low point last week by gently binning my drum part and creating a midi track that was something altogether more human, more sensitive. https://open.spotify.com/artist/0w2fQk3d4pinwOEvx2muwA?si=0UFLygwFQPCx07rjR1DwhQ

The song was written for a friend’s partner who likes word games but the answer to the clue belongs to someone else.  Hope ya like it.  Antony (a.k.a burn.it.smith)

13 across (crossword clue)

Here’s the convention
Three words in a sentence
Last one ending with ‘you’
Starts with an ‘I’
Almost high and dry
Just one more word here to do

Begins with an ‘L’
Does that ring any bells 
Cooed like a wood pigeon dove
Not often said
Makes you blue or go red
Rhymes with ‘heavens above’
                             
Still at a loss
With 13 across
Not sure there’s much more I can do
Is that a grimace
Or a smile on your face?
Oh what a hullabaloo!

Moving on to 2 down
Stop your fooling around
Don’t know why you do what you do
A gun to the head
Russian roulette
What’s the something  in I ‘something’ you
