SINKING IN MY ARMS

When Lee Lucas posted a collaborative version of this song before Christmas https://soundcloud.com/lee-lucas/lee-lucas-mark-j-bennett-the-parting-glass, he suggested that I put out an open invitation for anyone to collaborate with the original stem. Of course, I appreciate that grafting any type of arrangement on to an acapella vocal track isn't easy but I'd welcome any approach. This is an Irish traditional song but it may well withstand a modern arrangement. The vocal stem has lots of reverb and echo on it but should you need a drier stem to work with, just message me and I can send a naked version. Also feel free to take some liberties with this should it lend itself in any other treatment. 

I raise my glass to those brave enough to listen to me tightrope-walking and also to those who might consider taking on this challenge. Cheers!


Of all the money that e'er I had
I have spent it in good company
And all the harm that e'er I've done
Alas it was to none but me
And all I've done for want of wit
To memory now I can't recall
So fill to me the parting glass
Good night and joy be with you all

Of all the comrades that e'er I had
They are sorry for my going away
And all the sweethearts that e'er I had
They would wish me one more day to stay
But since it falls unto my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I'll gently rise and I'll softly call
Good night and joy be with you all

A man may drink and not be drunk
A man may fight and not be slain
A man may court a pretty girl
And perhaps be welcomed back again
But since it has so ought to be
By a time to rise and a time to fall
Come fill to me the parting glass

Good night and joy be with you all
Good night and joy be with you all

The Parting Glass - Open Collaboration

at the intersection of melancholy and cute... a song about tentative beginnings.

Starfish Lips (translated from Korean) 

Looking at the sea 
to see the sky 
Our hands, like two starfish 
How cute they are, you said 
That these pink stars try so hard to live 
"Starfish Lips" 

My lips are also clumsy 
But in a different way than a child 
The same things we understand… 
The things that we teach, we also learn 
"Starfish Lips" 

The reason I'm so quiet 
Is not because I have no words 
It's like English to a fish… 
My heart is too full 

You said they looked 
Like little pink children 
and you too are a star... 
"Starfish Lips" 

-----------------------
Starfish Lips (Korean lyrics) 

하늘별보고 바다 보면서 
두마리 불가사리 우리손 
열심히 살려고 하니까 
분홍색 별 귀엽다고 
"Starfish lips" 

내입술도 서툴러 
어린애완 다르지만 
이해하는 똑같은 
가르침 배운다 
"Starfish lips" 

조용한 이유 말없다아니라 
영어 붕어 가슴 가득차니까 
분홍색 아이 것 같다고 
너도 별이다 
"Starfish lips"

Ding Ding Ding
I know that sound could only mean one thing 
Such a bliss - such a cheerful ring
I love that sound and the joy it brings

Ding Ding Ding
How it sounds when a sleigh bell rings
Santa’s here - he’ll bring you everything
Candy, Sweets, Puppets on a string

Ding Ding Ding
An angels choirs song of anything
That could rhyme on a sleigh bells ring
to an orchestra with joyful strings

Time To Let Go

Back To The Moon

Underwater

TU ME VOIS TU ME REGARDES MAIS TU ME FLASHES PLUS
TOUT JUSTE SI TU PRÊTES GARDE À MON PARDESSUS
AH C’EST DUR DE SE REVOIR M’A DIT JOHNNY EN RÊVE
AVANT DE S’ÉVAPORER DANS LA NUIT DE SAINT-TROPEZ

ALORS J’AI MIS MON PARDESSUS MES BOTTES ET MON CHAPEAU
ET J’AI MARCHÉ DANS LES RUES SOUS LE GRIS CHAPITEAU 
J’AI ESPÉRÉ LE REVOIR MAIS COMME DANS UN RÊVE
C’EST TOI QUI M’EST APPARU MON VIEIL AMI DISPARU

DIRE QUE JE TE CROYAIS MORT ET RAYÉ DU PAYSAGE
COMME ON JETTE PAR DESSUS BORD SON EXCÉDENT DE BAGAGES
C’ÉTAIT BON DE TE REVOIR AILLEURS QU’EN RÊVE
DE POUVOIR RAFISTOLER LE TISSU DU PASSÉ

ET PUIS J’AI SUIVI MA DÉROUTE JUSQU’AU PÉRIPHÉRIQUE
ET DE LÀ J’AI PRIS LA ROUTE DESTINATION L’AFRIQUE
J’AI TOUJOURS VOULU REVOIR CE GRAND FLEUVE DE RÊVE
OÙ LE COUCHER DU SOLEIL CHANGENT LES EAUX EN MIEL

MAIS L’HEURE N’EST PLUS AUX VOYAGES AU PASSAGES DE FRONTIÈRES
Y’A CHANGEMENT DE PAYSAGE SUR TOUTE L’ÉTENDUE DE LA TERRE
ET PLUS MOYEN DE REVOIR SAUF EN RÊVE
LES PAYS QU’ON A AIMÉS LES AMIS QU’ON A SEMÉS  

ENFIN LA NUIT SUR PANAME RETOMBE EN DOUCEUR
EST-CE LA NUIT DE L’IGUANE OU CELLE DU CHASSEUR
ON SE CROISE SANS SE VOIR COMME EN RÊVE
PARFOIS UNE AILE NOUS FRÔLE UNE MAIN SUR L’ÉPAULE

ME REVOILÀ DANS LE NOIR ET BLANC DE MON LIT
PAS MAL ÉTONNÉ D’AVOIR RÊVÉ DE JOHNNY
PLUTÔT QUE DE TOI MON POTE MAIS LES RÊVES
N’EN FONT JAMAIS QU’À LEUR TÊTE LEUR MISSION EST SECRÈTE

ALORS AMIS DISPARUS Ô CHERS ABONNÉS ABSENTS 
QUI DU PASSÉ AU FUTUR SEREZ TOUJOURS PRÉSENT
JE VOUS DONNE RENDEZ-VOUS DANS MES RÊVES
VOUS LAISSANT LE CHOIX DU LIEU, DE L’HEURE ET DE LA NUIT

 TU ME VOIS TU ME REGARDES MAIS TU ME FLASHES PLUS
TOUT JUSTE SI TU PRÊTES GARDE À MON PARDESSUS
C’ÉTAIT COOL DE SE REVOIR M’A DIT JOHNNY EN RÊVE
AVANT D’ALLER SE FAIRE VOIR DANS LA NUIT DE SAINT-TROPEZ

JOHNNY EN RÊVE (Lyrics)

YouTube: https://youtu.be/ExT372wLyoE. This is a poem set to music. For relief from the "pandemic," I hiked in Eldorado Canyon, Colorado, hoping to see a Bald Eagle. Instead, perched up on a mountain peak was a crow. See the hiking path: https://youtu.be/9XYtnA9uAwo
POEM
VERSE1
Went to the mountains
To break the status quo.
For the reasons people go, to grow.
The eagles, the elk, the clean air.
Myself - to get to know.

VERSE2
Climbing up the ridge,
From the meadow below,
Arriving at the peak, rocky trail plateaus.
Stones loomed above me,
Fighting rain and snow.
Million years of winds that blow.

CHORUS1
Why do we go? Why do you ask?
To see such beauty that may not last.
Just like you, let me be free.
Let us have peace. Let me be me.
Agree?... See?.. This is key!

BRIDGE1

VERSE3
Something moved, casting shadows below.
What lives there?
What wildlife will show?
Expecting an eagle to spread its wings,
Then I hear a sound I know.

VERSE4
The call of an old black crow.
Not dressed for the occasion.
Not moved much by persuasion.
Wrong equation. Odd sensation.

CHORUS2
Crow looked down,
At the people on the ground,
In a way, as if to say, “Hey”
Just like you, let me be free.
Let me have peace. Let me be me.
Agree?... See?.. This is key!

BRIDGE2

VERSE5
Independent bird,
Follows his own tempo.
Doesn’t take orders well.
Like to keep it simple.

VERSE6
Clever bird. Often met with abrasion.
Perhaps you are a better symbol,
Of this nation.

VERSE7
If we want to make it for the full duration,
We better show more toleration.
No tomorrows. Too many sorrows.
Time, you just can’t borrow.

BRIDGE3

VERSE8
Climbing down the mountain,
That day I had to go,
To find out who I was,
And met the old crow.
Old black crow, what do ‘ya know?
Helped me today. A favor I owe.

CHORUS3
I’ll see you next time. When I climb.
When I go, on top of the rocks.
You’ll watch me below.
I know.

Arroz

Track shows a very delicate theme and a quite hard-riffed part, both alternating and finally flowing up to an endless symphonic dream (words are half a poem I wrote previously (not these, but lyrics below)).

Letra  /  Translated lyrics:

No despiertes (Sólo un sueño)  /  Don’t you wake up (Only a dream)

No... despierta... no... no despiertes  /  No ... wake up ... no ... don’t you wake up
no, cuidado... no despiertes, na na na na na...  /  no, take care ... don’t you wake up, na na na na na…
... despierta al fin y date cuenta  /  ... wake up at last and realize
de que todo ha sido un sueño, na na na na na...  /  everything has been a dream, na na na na na...

Una vez más, nervios y resentimiento,  /  Once again, nerves and resentment,
todo en mi vida es sueño, sólo ha sido eso.  /  everything in my life is a dream, it has only been so.

Y de nuevo, con el tiempo,  /  And again, with time,
incubando un nuevo sueño,  /  incubating a new dream,
me voy hundiendo en mis propios brazos,  /  I am sinking in my own arms,
me acuno, me canto y me voy acostumbrando...  /  cradle myself, sing to myself and get used...

Otro escenario, otros personajes,  /  Another stage, other characters,
la misma historia, na na na na na...  /  the same story, na na na na na...
que durará un día, un milenio,  /  which will last one day, a millenium,
toda mi vida, na na na na na...  /  all my life, na na na na na...

Pero sin duda vendrán a despertarme  /  But undoubtedly the laughs of people
las risas de la gente, alguna tarde.  /  will come to wake me up, any evening.

Y entonces, con miedo...  /  And then, fearfully...

No... despierta… no… no despiertes (…)  /  No ... wake up ... no ... don’t you wake up (…)

No despiertes (Sólo un sueño)
