This is simply beautiful<3<3 I hope things are going well for you up north and your taking in the refreshing sea air<3

The thing I appreciate about this is that it reflects a real moment of time in your life.  Important feelings come through.  It's real.

Beautifully done Rowena, is expresses change so deftly, both sadness and excitement!

Looking forward to hearing more Rowena 👌😁

I love it when a song just bursts forward and has to be heard.

Naked Sky

Phoenicis

I recall I wrote most of the melody of this song inside my head while travelling and on some pre-written lyrics.  However when I got down to the singing, I couldn't cope with some of the notes.  I'm so glad Terry came to the rescue and did a marvelous job here.    He also brought some very nice tweaks to the melody, lyrics & harmony arrangement.  Hope you like our collaboration.

[LYRICS]
Skies, inconsistent skies, bring uncertainty
Rain, incessant rain, keeps on pouring...(pouring down)
Hopes, elusive hopes,
Only keep us dreaming
Endless waiting is the saddest place to be

Oh I have tried so many times to do the best I can
Somehow it doesn't seem to matter at all
I ask myself what I'm gonna do when all's been done and fallen through
Now I'm standing with my back to the wall

(Chorus)
Life, everyday sort of life,
Living everyday through the rain and shine
World, this ruthless world,
Keeps on spinnin' in time
Empty days, and rocky ways,
Far too many for us to face
It's been one of ….......
It's been one of…........
It's been one of those days
It's been one of those days

Instrumental break

Repeat Chorus

It's been one of, it's been one of….
It's been one of those days

One Of Those Days (featuring Terry Wigmore)

I wrote this a couple of days ago, sitting at my piano among the packing boxes.  It was just a flow of feelings piece.  I let it flow through my hands and out through the piano, trying to express my feelings of sadness at leaving this beautiful place and excitement at heading north for a new adventure by the sea in Northumberland. Just because we can and why not give it a try, get some sea air, walk on the beach, listen to the waves.  Apologies this is a warts and all recording on my phone with an occasional hesitation while I work out where I’m going.  I hope you enjoy the journey.

"C'è un quadro di Klee che si chiama Angelus Novus. Vi è rappresentato un angelo che sembra in procinto di allontanarsi da qualcosa su cui ha fisso lo sguardo. I suoi occhi sono spalancati, la bocca è aperta, e le ali sono dispiegate. L'angelo della storia deve avere questo aspetto. Ha il viso rivolto al passato. Là dove davanti a noi appare una catena di avvenimenti, egli vede un'unica catastrofe, che ammassa incessantemente macerie su macerie e le scaraventa ai suoi piedi. Egli vorrebbe ben trattenersi, destare i morti e riconnettere i frantumi. Ma dal paradiso soffia una bufera, che si è impigliata nelle sue ali, ed è così forte che l'angelo non può più chiuderle. Questa bufera lo spinge inarrestabilmente nel futuro, a cui egli volge le spalle, mentre cresce verso il cielo il cumulo delle macerie davanti a lui. Ciò che noi chiamiamo il progresso, è questa bufera."

Walter Benjamin

Je ne veux plus savoir
Je veux suivre cette voix
Cette voix qui rebondit dans ma tête
Je veux voir encore et toujours un peu plus
Dans l’espoir de comprendre
Mais je m’éloigne toujours un peu plus
Je ne peux voir ce que j’entends
Je ne peux entendre ce que je vois
Mon regard s’enflamme
Dans une cascade de mots
Des mots qui se décomposent
Des images qui se dérobent
Je ne veux plus savoir
Je veux suivre cette voix

Angelus Novus [Hatis Noit]

Iopia

For everyone prevented from exercising agency or choice (as the result of tyranny of one sort or another), this music, made with love, is for you.  If restrictions abrogate your liberty, music, (should you retain enough independence to choose the music you listen to) offers an important form of freedom. The cardinal value... of the freedom to choose music we listen to is, like love, appreciated most fully only when lost.

Three studies for a Polonaise - i

Hello! Thanks for stopping by.  I write songs in reaction to life, quite often my own, or the lives of those around me.  Sometimes my song tells me what I'm thinking before I've even realised myself.  
I hope there is something here that resonates with you, I'd be really delighted to hear your comments.  
I started writing and playing again in March 2015 after a break of about 20 years having realised that life is short and I'd better crack on! I self released my 9 track CD 'Your Life' in 2017 and have since written many songs which will eventually end up on a 2nd 'album'!  I’ve had a couple of radio plays on BBC Introducing and played at a few local singers nights, but I’m really blown away by this Soundcloud community,  there’s a treasure trove of real music on here and the support is really appreciated.  
March 2021 update I've been teaching myself keyboard and have found it an inspiration for song writing and so my more recent tracks are written and performed with the piano keyboard.  
First memory of being captured by Songwriting was sitting behind a sofa aged 10 at a party and discovering Carol King’s Tapestry and a turntable. Teenage years dominated by an obsession with David Bowie, his word craft, imagery, story telling and his example of being able to constantly reinvent himself and not be pigeonholed. 
All tracks are my own compositions and performances except extra rhythm guitar and percussion on ‘Doing Time’ which was Carl Hetherington. 
Most of the images I have used are my own original artwork.  I now have an Instagram page where I’ll be posting my art at rowenaartandmusic

Thanks for stopping by, it’s much appreciated.
