Wow the production on this is amazing! I LOVE the drums transition at 1:55! Kinda reminded me of the drums in phil collins song “in the air tonight”

Woah, wasn't expecting the horns there. Very cool.

I love that guitar 🎸 blooming through the big drum beats! Great track, I like it    ""

Losing the war to be yourself
Cannot say your thoughts aloud
I don’t want to feel it like it is
I don’t want to see you
We told you what to think
Told you what you can’t…

PS: Four bars of different lengths in a sine curve; ||: 5/4 | 4/4 | 3/4 | 4/4 :|| Still 16 beats over four bars, right!

PPS: 3, 4, 5 length sides make a perfect right-angled triangle too!

Paroles

On voudrait faire une chanson
Écolo , geek et non genrée
Qui plaise aux filles et aux garçons
Sans gluten sans vulgarités
On enfoncerait toutes ces portes
Ouvertes sur nos libertés
De Washington à Aigues-Mortes
On chanterait le poing levé

On devrait parler de Poutine
Et de sa folie des grandeurs
Qui mettent le feu dans nos vitrines
Comme une canicule en chaleur
On balancerait notre avis
Sur le changement climatique
On tordrait le cou nous aussi
A ces idées fausses et sceptiques

Et puis on ferait un refrain
A faire tomber un dictateur
Un peu comme une voiture sans freins
Conduite par un jeune acteur
Et puis on ferait un refrain
A déranger les complotistes
Un peu comme une voiture sans freins
Conduite par un vrai journaliste

On devrait faire une chanson
Sur la Covid mais sans tabous
Sur ces experts yaka fokon
Qui savaient tout sur rien surtout
On parlerait de tous ces gens
De ces héros du quotidien
Qu'un imbécile de Président
A traité comme des assassins

Et puis on ferait un refrain
A faire frémir les chaînes infos
Un peu comme une voiture sans freins
Conduite par Docteur Renaud
Et puis on ferait un refrain
A angoisser tous ces bavards
Un peu comme une voiture sans freins
Conduite par Mister Renard

On dézinguerait les puissants
Qui n'écoutent pas la Planète
Les oreilles bouchées par l'argent
L'cerveau au chaud dans leurs braguettes
On allumerait ces people
Qui font souffrir les dictionnaires
Qui polluent les pages de Google
Tout comme du pétrole dans la mer

Et puis on ferait un refrain
A faire peur aux capitalistes
Un peu comme une voiture sans freins
Conduite par un communiste
Et puis on ferait un refrain
A effrayer tous les Bobos
Un peu comme une voiture sans freins
Conduite par un Populo

We'd like to make a song
Eco-friendly, geeky and gender-neutral
that appeals to both boys and girls
Gluten-free without vulgarities
We'd break down all those doors
Open to our freedoms
From Washington to Aigues-Mortes
We'd sing with raised fists

We should talk about Putin
And his delusions of grandeur
Setting fire to our windows
Like a heat wave
We'd throw our weight around
On climate change
We, too, would bend our necks
To these false and skeptical ideas

And then we'd make a chorus
To bring down a dictator
Like a car with no brakes
Driven by a young actor
And then we'd make a chorus
To upset the conspiracists
Like a car without brakes
Driven by a real journalist

We should make a song
About the Covid but without taboos
About those yaka fokon experts
Who knew everything about nothing
We'd talk about all those people
These everyday heroes
Whom an imbecile President
Treated like assassins

And then we'd make a chorus
To make the news channels quiver
Like a car without brakes
Driven by Docteur Renaud
And then we'd make a chorus
To scare the chatterboxes
Like a car without brakes
Driven by Mister Renard

We'd blast the powerful
Who don't listen to the Planet
Their ears plugged by money
Their brains warmed in their zippers
We'd light up these celebrities
Who make dictionaries suffer
Polluting the pages of Google
Like oil in the sea

And then we'd make a chorus
To scare the capitalists
Like a car without brakes
Driven by a communist
And then we'd make a chorus
To scare all the haves
Like a car without brakes
Driven by the rabble

Sans Freins ( Tulipe & Jim ) TRANSLATED

wrote down a letter
shrouded it in code
gonna mail it off in the first class post
to some unknown address
from long ago

and if ever you do see me down the road
please do not shout out
I will not slow
if I should hear some distant voice
from long ago

you coulda lit my fuse
but it's too early to say
cancel my subscription
down with the masquerade
if you're so honest 
I'm the longest day

you may lay claim 
to banish all my blues away
but it's just conjecture deception and facade
when it was you who put most of them there
anyway 

I'm mailing all of my blues away
I'm mailing all of my blues away

somewhere out in the distant multiverse
my entropy is flowing in reverse
and all my branches are forming
to build a church

where I can go and get some peace
retrieve my letter off of
the holy priest
and slowly build my life back
piece by piece

I'm mailing all of my blues away
I'm mailing all of my blues away

but you know just lately
I have come to doubt
what in the hell it is that 
I'm taking about
maybe you'd be better off without

and in about a billion years or so
I'll figure something out
you don't already know
and mail it to some address
from long ago

recorded at home on my 8 track

thanks a million for stopping by folks, really appreciate it, keep on being cool✌️

From Long Ago

Up in space 
there’s a correlation 
I’ve found
I wish that
You could turn around, babe
And come outside

And I wake up 
to the seven fates
I learned my place
but I go insane
where I find it
where I found you


It's new love
Don't say its true love
I've been there too, love
An obscenity fool in love

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...

Most of my tracks are available on Spotify, iTunes, Apple Music, Google Play/YouTube, Amazon, etc, just search for Phil McWalter or follow the link below the track and stream or buy as you wish. 

Wow!!  417K plays and 4,000+ valued followers and friends that provide lots of wonderfully helpful comments that fuel the next track! Really big thanks to the SC community for listening and providing such brilliant feedback and support. It means so much to myself and my collaborators - huge thanks.

I use Native Instrument's Komplete Ultimate 14, Omnisphere 2 and my own organic samples. I love Hollow Sun.

I mix on Sennheiser HD 280 Pro's and HD 650's (closed and open headphones) when not making a bigger noise through my Mackie studio monitors. I use Focusrite Clarett 2Pre ThunderBolt and Apogee audio interfaces, Neumann & iSK condenser & AKG dynamic mics.
