sir malldad set two clip (1)

Here's a song and video that's a bit of a change of pace, a crazy gangster story song from my album "Unhinged" that I recorded back in 2019. A totally made up this rock song and it has a nice riff. This is NOT one of my love songs!😂 It follows these insane bank robbers with serious mental problems! I wanted to make like a little action movie for this song. I'm always trying to make my songs into little films!😁. 

VIDEO - https://youtu.be/o7xeuezg1oQ

    The video is new and took several days to finish since I had so many clips to edit together! I really tried to follow the song as close as I could and I even added a clip from an old Yosemite Sam cartoon of the 40's for comic relief!😂 I had a blast creating the video and I hope everyone enjoys it. It's a bit violent but most action films are! Take a peak if you dare! Thanks for listening and hopefully watching and take care!🙏😎✌🏼

“SWEATIN' BULLETS"

I'M DISTURBED, SLIGHTLY TOUCHED, 
MAYBE I THINK A BIT TOO MUCH,
ALWAYS RUN WHEN I SHOULD CRAWL,  
WHEN I'M PUSHED, I CHOKE AND STALL,       
I'M CRACKED, SOMEWHAT ASKEW,
ALL MY LINES A BIT OFF CUE, 
ALWAYS SMILE WHEN I SHOULD CRY, 
WANNA QUIT WHEN I SHOULD TRY,

I’M SWEATIN' BULLETS, SWEATIN' BULLETS,
DON’T SHOOT ME PLEASE, I’M ON MY KNEES,
BEGGING FOR SYMPATHY,  
I'M SWEATIN' BULLETS, SWEATIN' BULLETS,
IT AIN’T NO FUN, CRYIN’ INTO YOUR GUN,
NOW I’M SWEATIN' BULLETS AT YOUR FEET,
                  
I'M UNCLEAR, THOUGHTS OBSCURE,
WILL THEY EVER FIND ME A CURE, 
I STOP DEAD WHEN I SHOULD GO, GO, GO,
CAN'T SEEM TO OVERCOME THE FLOW,
DISTURBED, WHO'S TO SAY?
DOCTORS ALWAYS IN THE WAY,       
MEDICATION IN MY BRAIN, 
WHEN THE SUN COMES OUT, I WANNA RAIN!           
           
I’M SWEATIN' BULLETS, SWEATIN' BULLETS,
DON’T SHOOT ME PLEASE, I’M ON MY KNEES,
BEGGING FOR SYMPATHY,  
I'M SWEATIN' BULLETS, SWEATIN' BULLETS,
IT AIN’T NO FUN, CRYIN’ INTO YOUR GUN,
NOW I’M SWEATIN' BULLETS AT YOUR FEET,

Lyric

"Everything in moderation"
Thank you Mum
My grounded station
This passion pounds your greatest truth
You are sobered video in mind since youth

A break to break
Out goes this cycle of playaholic make
Time to work for peace of mind
Time to apply your unconditional kind

The goals are great
The goals are good
For bodies sake
Good break
I should
Therapy for the truly free
Let's shelve muse of love
Now, just children of me

Children of me
Fix for the future
Passive in bliss
Sown Motherly suture
My Mary is Earth
Birthed by the Sun
Break-time by glistening victory won

Did three live runs playing along to the previous recording each time. It's a good reason to hold onto an older phone or have that handy no effort live mic/memory /speaker device.. Having two you can handily setup live mic and playback and you can record an idea anywhere and build pretty cool live mic sessions fairly fast and while the idea is most fresh in your head... the moment you make it. A good exercise for playing to your instinct

Record on Phone 1

Play back Phone 1 and record on Phone 2

Play back Phone 2 and Record on Phone 1

etc etc... an effortless daw like / live sounding result to bring to your actual daw and deliver it there with arguably a lot less thought and effort

The original recording process is also less screen distraction. On your DAW its harder to avoid screen. You can turn the phones over and leave them play / record and its square lights out. In my opinion this is important as screens are our trigger for the monotony of the matrix that is the internet.  Me included most of us have used it as this super handy tool and ignored the subliminal information we get fed all the time... So even if we are not being live fed it during the creative process I believe there could still be detrimental triggers involved which may hinder your creative side. I need to research this more but its basically how our brain and it's subconscious is triggered by norms (doing monotonous things on streaming sites) So i suggest we should be endeavouring to create an environment that flicks the correct switches... our creative ones and for many of us... screens don't do that regularly enough to be an inspiration and maybe they are not our best creative trigger. I guess thats another reason a pen/pencil is good to use... Maybe that helps trigger yourself from using it in school... always an ultra creative time in most lucky peoples lives

Break to Break

This song is for my friend, Patrick aka Zoner.  Thank you for listening, xo
DON’T RUN ME DOWN
Can’t you see I’m on my last leg?
My heart’s been through the mud
That’s the feeling I got when I saw my friend today
I could see it in his eyes he’s had enough
And it occurred to me as I was drivin’ home
A strong man is now delicate
And getting old is a sum-gun
And that freight train ain’t no stoppin’ it

[Chorus]
Don’t run me down
Don’t run me down
Oh, ‘cuz if you run me down, I may never come around
Don’t run me down

And while I’m ten years younger than him
Feel that bulldozer strike my bones
But I was glad I could help my friend today
Lord knows, he shouldn’t be on his own
And crossing Kroger’s parkin’ lot
A car was coming upon us fast
And with a chuckle, Patrick said to him
‘Don’t run me down’; all he asked:

[Chorus]
Don’t run me down
Don’t run me down
Oh, ‘cuz if you run me down, I may never come around
Don’t run me down

And now that both my parents are gone
There’s that gnawing that I’m next
And I pray to God I’m not a nuisance to anyone
Staying independent I’ve done my best
And should I witness old-age up close
I pray I take my final breath in peace
And may my name be in the Book of Life
May I finally find relief

[Chorus]
Don’t run me down
Don’t run me down, Lord
Oh, ‘cuz if You run me down, I may never come around

Oooooh-ooooh, Oooooh-oooooh

[Chorus]
Don’t run me down
Don’t run me down, Lord
Oh, ‘cuz if You run me down, I may never come around

Don’t run me down
Don’t run me down, Lord
‘Cuz if You run me down, I may never…I may never come

DON’T RUN ME DOWN

My orchestral and piano tribute to this amazing composition by Handel

Passacaglia


Texte Français et Google traduction

JOINDRE LES DEUX BOUTS

Fins de mois difficiles,
Les factures à régler.
Et les enfants fragiles
Qu’il faudra bien soigner.
Et ce loyer qui tombe
Trop lourd à chaque fois
Que faire dans un monde
Si on n'a pas un toit.

Puis il faut bien manger
Pas en faire des extras
Un plat ou une entrée
Sans sauter de repas.
C'est si facile à dire
Quand on y regarde bien
C'est sûr, il y a un pire
Beaucoup de nous ont faim.

A joindre les deux bouts
Quand on n'arrive pas,
Un sou est bien un sou,
Surtout quand on l’a pas.

On cherche et on ratisse
Dans ses tiroirs du fond
Ce jour qui rase gratis
Quand on n'a pas un rond.
On gratte toutes ses poches
Jusqu'à les déchirer
Tendre sa main c'est moche
Pour au mieux vivre.

En se privé de tout
Ce qu'on dit superflu
Il ne reste plus beaucoup
De moments détendus.
On se traîne, on vivote
Sans regarder au loin
L'intérieur se révolte
Espérant mieux demain.

A joindre les deux bouts...

Mais pourquoi travailler
On ne comprend pas bien
Que faire pour exister
Si ce n'est pour les siens.

A joindre les deux bouts
Quand on n'arrive pas,
Un sou est bien un sou,
Surtout quand on l’a pas.


MAKING ENDS MEET

Tough ends of the month,
Bills to pay.
And fragile children
Who will need to be cared for.
And that rent that comes in
Too heavy every time
What can you do in a world
If you don't have a roof over your head.

And you have to eat well
Not overdo it
A main course or a starter
Without skipping a meal.
It's so easy to say
When you look closely
It's sure, there's a worse situation
Many of us are hungry.

Making ends meet
When you can't make ends meet,
A penny is a penny,
Especially when you don't have it.

We search and we rake
In our back drawers
That day that shaves for free
When we don't have a penny.
We pick all our pockets
Until they tear
Reaching out is a shame
To live better.

By depriving ourselves of everything
What we say is superfluous
There aren't many
Relaxed moments left.
We drag ourselves along, we eke out a living
Without looking far ahead
Our inner self rebels
Hoping for better tomorrow.

To make ends meet...

But why work?
We don't really understand
What to do to exist
If not for our loved ones.

To make ends meet
When we can't make ends meet,
A penny is a penny,
Especially when we don't have it.

Ce n'est un secret pour personne que les auteurs de science-fiction aiment ancrer leurs formes de vie extraterrestres imaginaires sur des planètes théoriquement désertes. Dans des mondes arides, stériles et desséchés ....
Je développe ici ce sujet dans un univers musical aux harmonies parfois étranges.
Mais, juste pour un instant d'évasion.

It is not a secret for anyone that science fiction writers like to root their imaginary extraterrestrial life forms on theoretically deserted planets. In arid, sterile and dried up worlds ....
