A moody, low key and slightly dissonant gem!

like the melody and the way you word in the lyrics. gives the song a mother dimension.

So glad I caught up with this. It is beautifully and subtly dramatic. I love how you are toying with the tension of dissonance and its resolution.

Wow!!! Those dissonant chords are so interesting to me... and choice of chord changes. Right up my alley. Fantastic!!!

Somehow that really works, that must have taken some time. Nice

Love the chord changes..Very creative vocal track..captivating & mesmerizing..perfectly executed..great guitar work..excellent mix & recording production..brilliantly done!

Are we going to fly?

Are we going to fly or not?
We're standing at the cliff wound up

What's the hurry? We are free
What's the hurry for you and me?

Are we going to own the sky?
A spectacular goodbye

What's the hurry? We are free
What's the hurry for you and me?

Honestly don't compromise
We could do more than survive
Survive

Are we going to find our way?
Thought you said we had all day

Better hurry up and be free
Better hurry up for you and me

Honestly don't compromise
We should do more than survive
Survive

Are We Going to Fly?

Garden Of A Thousand Candles

In the garden of a thousand candles
Dreams awake you
Silently stare at the walls
Gold adorns you
Fantastical colours
Dreams await you
Lead where you dare

In a little field beyond Granton Meadows
There's a spot of heaven under yonder tree
Step aboard my time machine 
The future looks a silent Spring
Listen to the spirits come walk with me

Look around there were trees there were fields
Seems so serene beyond finite ideals
What happened to the simplest of times?
Blood, fire and steel
The old ways die
The old ways die

In the garden of a thousand candles
Dreams await you
Silently stare at the walls
Gold adorns you
Fantastical colors
Dreams awake you 
Lead where you dare

Over and over dreams falling over
Over and over lead where you dare

The Garden of a Thousand Candles

Delighted to present my latest collaboration with The Phaige, one half of Soundcloud stalwarts One and Other, alongside Jaime J Ross. This is a trippy, exotic backcloth with a cold North wind blowing through. 
Gary once again amazed with his creativity and his multi-layered production. He has such a keen ear for detail and brushstrokes to enhance and improve. What grabbed me from the outset was the slinky, fluid bass playing, but there are many levels across the frequencies to hook you in. Always a fun process to work with him.

All instruments , artwork and production: ThePhaige
Vocals and lyrics: Nick

Come with me with tales of magic, mountain spirits, hail and snow from your motherland.
Tell me secrets never told of winters bleak and hardship in the biting winter cold - aah

Take me to hidden places where food and love and family keep you warm
I’ll ride with you on Northern winds through deepest valleys and the blackest storms

I’ll sing with you while we are drunk with laughter in our eyes
I’ll listen to your strange new words of love from the North

Fly me faster through the stars to universes only we will ever know
Keep me close and make sweet memories for now and evermore

From North - The Phaige with Nicholas Ridiculous (lyrics in description)

WE AIN’T TRIPPING**IPG1 & RICØ**

Here  I stand in the supermarket 
And I wonder what I should do. 
What did she told me not to forget ? 
Do you often have this feeling too ? 

Where for hell did I put my keys? 
Has this table always been there? 
Holly fuck just hurt my knee !
She must have moved the room that’s not fair 

They told me ‘bout some curious troubles
I really need her to be my crutch 
I don’t understand much 
Only It is unstoppable

Yelling at her to deny 
‘cause things I’m fighting on right now
Even if I take a hard try  
Always turn bad bad bad 

They told me ‘bout some curious troubles
And I really need her to be my crutch 
I don’t understand much 
Only it is invisible

My love my baby my darling my honey 
she’s perfect
she’s mine,  I’m hers forever my baby my love
She looks great 

I ‘m loosing her
In the invincible web
Which’s growing up
In my head

I’m loosing her, yeah loosing her in my head 

Have I told you ‘bout my youth? 
Did you know I was a / Shut your mouth  !
You don’t know!

Please look at me!  I’m here
No I’m Not stupid 
It’s just that My brain is just overrun by,.. come on ! Look at me! 

Where am I exactly ? 
This woman who is she  ?
I’m loosing me

They told me ‘bout some curious  troubles					
I really need her to be my crutch 
They didn’t tell me how much 
I ‘ll feel invisible


My love my baby my darling my honey 
she’s perfect
she’s mine,  I’m hers 
forever  my love 
She ’s so  great 

But I ‘m loosing her
In this invincible web
Which is  growing up in my head 

My head my head my sick head my brain my sick brain 

Unstoppable invisible invincible unstoppable web

 my brain my brain my head  my brain 
my SICK Brain ! 


Ok Maybe I pin my memories on others souvenirs
And then what’s the problem tell me? 
I am loosing me 
Need something to hang on 
So please shut up and move on 
Yeah move on 

Move on 
Move on 
Unstoppable invincible move on 
I told you
No I’m not stupid,
you got in front of you exactly the same guy that you had before; 
I’m the same man! 
I’m the same one
It’s not because I forget that I am dead, 
no I’m not already dead stop walking on me this way

Stop it walking on me this way 
Shut up and move on
Leave me alone shut up and move on
I got my love 
I got  my love that’s all that counts now
That’s all that counts, leave me alone

Truth is stranger than fiction

Can't Hold On

Dance (John Stone)

I heard the weather report
And it’s worse than we thought
Because of all that we’ve done
Now there’s nowhere to run
The sun's getting hotter
The sea's on the rise
Before long the water is up to our eyes
There’s floods on  the earth 
And fire in the skies


We all thought we’d be fine
Yeah we’ve had a good time
But we were wrong when we guessed
That we’d always be blessed
Now we can’t drink the water
We can’t breathe the air
There’s not enough left for the people to share
It’s too late to panic
It’s too late to care


If we are reaching the end of the line
Walking as if in a trance
It’s already too late
To alter our fate
But while we still can we can dance

As we’re approaching the ending of time 
Caution is thrown to the wind
Kick off your shoes 
And surrender the blues
Forgive us, oh Lord, we have sinned!

So we dance

Dance dance dance dance

Dance like there’s no tomorrow
Dance to the beat of a funeral drum
Dance like there’s no tomorrow
We can Dance till the dawn that’s not going to come

Dance

The King Of Glory

Rich, pampered girl from Abilene, Texas meets a trail-worn cowboy with a checkered past, and they head north to avoid her family's scrutiny. It's a doomed relationship from the start, of course, and only lasts until the snow breaks.  Abilene comes calling - she heads back home, and the cowboy does what all cowboys in trouble do (at least in the songs I listen to) - he splits for the border.  True story?  Maybe...
 
The timeline in the song is a little convoluted - begins in the middle and then back to the start, then to the end and back to the middle etc.,..   But you old cowhands will figure it out.

Female voices are Julia Avery and Madison Carr.
 
And the winter would pass......

When Abilene Calls

Songwriter; also play guitar in the rock band, The Warp/The Weft and I'm half the duo, Teeniest.  Can't really sing but I do it anyway.

Are We Going to Fly?
