What's this song about? String Theory is the notion that all time exists on a string—a string that never disappears. I'm a fan of the podcast/television show Closer to Truth, an American production hosted by a neuroscientist. The host interviews the leading experts on many scientific and philosophical subjects. In a recent podcast, scientists discussed String Theory, which became the inspiration for this song. 

One scientist explained that if you imagine a string along which all time exists—past, present and future—then you can understand that right now both the future and past still exist on that string. So, in theory, the past never disappears and the future is waiting to happen. He likened it to a DVD of a movie. At any point you can rewind or move forward. He suggests that this may be possible with time. 

What I drew from this notion is that all that has happened in my life, all the people I have known—in particular those who are no longer here—are, according to this theory, still existing on the string. Is this a comfort? I think it is for me. 

This is why in the refrain I sing, " I will always be with you." Even when I no longer exist, I will exist along the string, a string that connects me to a past before my own existence began and to a future that I will never see. 

Perhaps you will draw something different from this song and from the theory. In any case, I hope you enjoy the musicianship on this recording. Georg and I worked hard to produce parts and solos that we're proud of.

String Theory (Featuring Georg Boehme)

November 2023. I removed the cover of my 40 year old Roland U20, blew the dust off the keys and played the first notes after decades of silence. A first glimpse to the past and to the future at the same time.

Nobody , Nowhere

A song in an old tradition, with the wonderful Nadia Selvaggi. 
I recommend that you go and listen to her lovely music https://soundcloud.com/nadiaselvaggi

Oh, where is my love

Oh, where is my love
Oh, where has he gone
He has gone to the war
With fathers and sons
To fight for our right
to live a peaceful life
To safeguard the future 
of daughters and wives
To fight those other men
With rockets and knives

They were once our neighbours
Our cousins and our friends
We would live together
Brothers without end
How could they turn against us
What twisted reason wends
To create this wicked violence
To hell we will descend

Oh where is my loved one
I have heard not a word since he left our home
I fear I have lost him 
I have heard not a word
Please return to me my darling with the swiftness of a bird
Please fly to me my darling with the swiftness of a bird

They were once our neighbours (etc as above)


Oh, where is my love
Oh, where has he gone
He has gone to the war
With fathers and sons
To fight for our right
to live a peaceful life
To fight those other men
Who have daughters and wives

Oh, Where Is My Love (with Nadia)

Composition – The Eclectic Collective

This song began its life as a beautiful guitar 
chord progression from Stephen. He wrote it with the idea the The Eclectic Collective would bring it to life, which we were all excited to do. First up was Tez, who added the distorted guitar you hear adding the edge to the entire thing. Ken added his lively foundational drums next. Josh, of course seized on that, and followed shortly after with his four-string fretless bass. JJ came along next and added the expressive organ and dancing piano, along with the big choral vocals at the end, which he did with his new synthesizer. 

  Now that we had the music done, it was time for Mark to add his distinct, signature singing to the mix of his original lyrics. Josh decided to come up with some very simple lyrics for the choruses and arranged some harmony parts for them, too, which he also sang. Mark also threw in his voice to the choruses. Ken, too, contributed his voice to the choruses, as well as harmonies and vocalizations throughout the verse. 

  Once the song was in the can, Stephen edited, mixed and mastered it for us, very ably, as always.

  This was a seemingly large project, which took us almost two months from introduction to finished product. It's another good example of the songwriting capabilities of the EC. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Original lyrics by Mistermark:
 Watching the city lights getting smaller while I’m looking through my rear view
Leaving it all behind hit me harder than I  thought that it could ever do
Sometimes a man gets lost on the road like a wheel spinning round in his brain
It’s not what you said but it’s in the way you said it
Now it’s stuck in my head and I’m never gon’ forget it

I’m moving on
Away from home
(Away from home, that’s where I roam)

Well home is where the heart is as the saying goes, but my heart ain’t in it no more
But I remember all the times smelling grits in the hall as the morning sun hit the floor 
Old picture frames, and every toy’s got a name, now they’re packed up and stored away
Turning that key for one last time keeps turning around & around in my mind

I’m on the road
Away from home
(Away from home, that’s where I roam)

Now I’m pointing these wheels toward the setting sun
we’re flying straight up ahead like a bullet from a gun
Just you & me kid and this old guitar
we got dreams to dream and we’re gunna go far
Like stars in the sky there’s city lights up ahead
and I’ll keep driving toward ‘em till the day I’m dead
Closing one door just opens up another
there’s plenty of world just waiting to discover

I’m moving on
Another home…
(Away from home, that’s where I roam)

Away From Home - (Eclectic Collective)

The Land of Frowns

I told the man he'd have to go
You are not welcome here you know
You do not speak as others do
Our people are afraid of you

So would you help a man when he's really down
and lost within this land of frowns

Land of Frowns

So I wrapped myself in things I'd found
and laid myself out on the ground
and the devil comes in many ways
he came to me that day

Far away I was a young man

Oh, my home, I had to go

I'm a stranger in this foreign town
Stranger in this land of frowns
Oh, land of frowns

So I told the man he'd have to go
You are not welcome here you know

Land of frowns......

The Land Of Frowns
