LES IMPREVUS MALENCONTREUX

Les imprévus malencontreux
Qui sèment le mal tout autour d’eux
Viennent bouleverser par leurs venus
Certains des jours et même plus
Sortent de l’ombre et des buissons
Nous jouent des tours à leurs façons
A faire des maux, pétrir nos cœurs
Partant de rires, on passe aux pleurs.

Les imprévus malencontreux
Nous font souffrir, font de leur mieux
Voudraient nous voir sur une image
Noyant nos yeux dans un naufrage
Passent à l’acte sans prévenir
Nous faisant mal, malin plaisir
Sans faire passer comme indolore
Ces coups de l’âme contre nos sorts 

Les imprévus malencontreux
Nous rongent,
Et à cause d’eux
On songe,
A ce pire, l’angoissant,
De se dire à nouveau c’est quand….

Les imprévus malencontreux
Faisant du mal tout autour d'eux
Viennent nous voir de temps en temps
Nous faire savoir tout simplement
Qu’ils peuvent d'une manière
Nous faire du mal, nous mettre en l’air
Et que seul’ment s’ils le souhaitent
Nous laisseront des jours en fêtes.

Les imprévus malencontreux
Nous rongent,
Et à cause d’eux
On songe,
A ce pire, l’angoissant,
De se dire à nouveau c'est quand….

Les imprévus malencontreux
Que cherchent-ils contre tous ceux
Qui veulent vivre tout simplement
De grands bonheurs qui durent au temps
Pensant à chaque fois que tout bien
Vivant nos jours et leurs lendemains
Jetant les doutes à tous les vents
Pour que l'amour reste bien grand.

THE UNFORTUNATE EXPECTATIONS

Unforeseen events
Who sow evil all around them
Come to upset by their arrivals
Some days and even more
Come out of the shadows and the bushes
Playing tricks on us in their own ways
To cause pain, to knead our hearts
Starting with laughter, we move on to tears.

Unforeseen events
Make us suffer, do their best
Would like to see us in a picture
Drowning our eyes in a shipwreck
Take action without warning
Making us hurt, evil pleasure
Without passing it off as painless
These blows of the soul against our spells

Unforeseen events
are gnawing at us,
And because of them
We think,
At this worst, the distressing,
To say to yourself again when….

Unforeseen events
Doing harm all around them
Come see us from time to time
Just let us know
That they can in a way
Hurt us, put us in the air
And only if they wish
Will leave us days of celebration.

Unforeseen events
are gnawing at us,
And because of them
We think,
At this worst, the distressing,
To say again when is it….

Unforeseen events
What do they seek against all those
Who want to live simply
Great happiness that lasts over time
Thinking every time that everything is good
Living our days and their tomorrows
Throwing doubts to all the winds
So that love remains great.

LES IMPREVUS MALENCONTREUX

When we were clearing my brother in law's house after he died in an accident,we came across a little written musing. It's the spoken part at the end of this short track. Perhaps not polished,yet poignant. Rest easy Alan.

Magic at work
There we go
Watch it unfold
It's all guesswork
Nothing to show
All uncontrolled

Drifting along
Aimlessly
Life and the flow
Is there a song
Just for me
Will I ever know

When life has lost it's theme
It's crazy impossible dream
And a heart is beyond tears
And worries and fears
Then the answers lie at best
In the scudding distant clouds
Or in memories of vibrant years
Long gone

Zhao Zilong(?~229)

Among the many characters who appear in "Epic of the Three Kingdoms," one of the most popular is Zhao Yun.

He was a loyal and courageous man, and his appearance told Liu Bei, ``He is a man of courage. ” he said.

At the Battle of Changban, he held Liu Bei's son Ato in his arms and single-handedly broke through the enemy lines.
This is known as one of the famous scenes of Epic of the Three Kingdoms.

In the official history, unlike the Epic of the Three Kingdoms, there is surprisingly little mention of Zhao Yun.

Unlike Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, he had no major flaws or problems, and the fact that he carried out his duties reliably may have made him a 
great figure.

赵子龙(?~229)

于《三国演技》诸角色中,最受欢迎者为赵子龙。

忠而勇者,外告刘备,"一身是胆。" "曰:"然。

长坂之役,抱备子阿斗于怀,单骑突之。
此《三国演技》之著名者也。
在官史中,与《三国演技》不同,出奇罕及云。

与关羽、张飞不同,无所缺陷,其定事国家,或其所以壮大也。

赵子龙 月下骑士＜Zhao Zilong  Knight Under The Moon＞mp3

a little song about appreciation and sticking together............thanks for listening and merry christmas


you're the blue up in my sky
the twinkle in the eye
aint no mountain seem too high
when you are by my side

you're the no and i'm the yes
you're the answer i'm the guess
everything just seems a mess
without you by my side

sometimes the days aint long enough
to do what we gotta do
and get on with what really matters
like taking care of me and you

my island in the sun
a place to hide when i'm on the run
i could easily come undone
without you by my side

cool me down like summer rain
seek me out when i'm lost again
among enemies you're my friend
who stands right by my side

like a dusty road that never ends
the long goodbye, to part as friends
just know that we'll meet again
and we'll walk side by side

Cast of Characters:
cgmaness-- @user-419254289-15129531 –- Chris-- acoustic guitar, electric guitar, bass, drums, composition
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)-- @josh-clary-1: – piano, lap slide
                                       
 This song began by Chris writing it with his acoustic guitar at the beginning of last summer. He passed it along to me, who added the piano and slide parts. Then Chris got it back and added the rhythm section of bass and drums, along with some electric accents. It's been a few months since we've released a collaboration together, not by choice, but because of our busy lives. We have been working on this one for about half a year, trying to add and cut other elements into it. We ended up deciding to put out a simpler version, which is what you hear here. It's been a long time coming, and is our final offering of 2023. It's been a great year of sharing music with all of you out there in SoundCloud land. I appreciate all of your ears, support, and sharing of your talents. We hope you enjoy listening to this one as much as we enjoyed making it. Happy new year 2024!
P.s. Everyone should check out Chris's slightly different version on his page. It features him singing, and is a very cool treat indeed! Chris is in my top three creators on the whole Cloud. If you're not familiar with him, do yourself a favor and check out what he has on offer.

Downtown. Streetside bars. Instrumental. Kind of a latin/blues/jazz thing that morphed into hard rock, then synth pop.

little bird, guess you have flown
over many an ocean exploring the globe

please be my eyes cause ill never see
the seven wonders of the world describe them to me
when you come back
ill be waiting for you

little bird tell me where have you been
have you circled the earth hey what have you seen

good or bad happy and sad
does it make you confused as the news does to me
when you come back
ill be waiting for you

tell me is it true what they say
that the lungs of our planet are being cut away

when you come back
ill be waiting for you
when you come back
ill be waiting for you

Little Bird

STORM   (Ft Jorg Stohwasser )  "Joerxworx"

Tired of cold short days? Me too. Let's party!!  I haven't posted anything new in a while so here's a 10 year old tune that will be new to some of my peers, and those who've heard it have already gotten over the shock. This is an exercise in licentious sexual innuendo and lewd, funky sounds. It's what happens when an otherwise innocent childhood is spent listening to Jimmy Castor Bunch, New Birth, Slave, James Brown, Funkadelic, etc, and there are some biblical metaphors thrown in for good measure. It can be downloaded in case I decide to run for Governor and need to quickly hide all scandal.

OK where does this nonsense come from? 

"There's a primordial dread and fear of the power of the Feminine expressed in the feckless desire to dominate and control a situation that the poor fool just oughta accept as way beyond his own meager forces."  -- Carl Jung

TASTES LIKE CHICKEN
I went down to the melon patch 
gonna find myself a big 'un
it was Saturday morning and the sun was shining 
and I was ready for diggin'

there she was alone with her hands around a vine
sunlight shining through her summer dress I said my my my

my name is Daisy hope you don't mind
that I'm down here pulling on your vines
now if you please may i keep on pickin?
and one more thing I taste like chicken

she was in my melon patch already picking
and now she tells me she tastes like chicken
this could be the thing that I've been missing
now here's a girl that tastes like chicken

she followed me home with a couple juicy melons
I said baby where you are from but she wasn't telling
now something about her story just wasn't clickin'
I know a lotta girls don't none of them taste like chicken

back in my kitchen I cut the rind
it was pink and juicy on the inside
she said baby just a minute
I need to step outside before we get in it

she went outside behind a big old tree
I was following close behind but I didn't let her see
then I heard something that blew my mind
she was talking alien on a radio line

she came back in through the front door
wearing nothing but a smile
I know she's an alien
but I'll let it go for now

now I'm not sure how it's gonna all work out
I still got my extraterrestrial doubts
but man she looks good standing in my kitchen
and she tastes like chicken

Songs: We find them unpainted in our hands, throw them up into the air of our imagination, turning them in the colours we see after we close our eyes until they feel just right, and sometimes we catch them perfectly, without blemishing them...
