LIGHT IS LIFE...acoustic.

The second song from our next album due to be released on Friday, April 19th is called 'Lessons of Love', and it's a teach-yourself how-to-love love-song with help from M.Butterfly, percussion by Peter Collis and some beautiful trumpet by Matt Devitt of the Meow Meows. 

The single is accompanied by a charming video of cheeky lovestruck monkeys, filmed in India, which you can watch at https://youtu.be/WtCKxhrdaq4

Flying Buildings

I found you where the river bends,
Where the willow sways and the quiet mends,
Your voice, a song the mountains knew,
I crossed the plains just to stand by you.

You came to me when the world seemed wide,
With a steady heart and the strength to guide,
Through winds that tore and skies that cried,
I knew my place was by your side.

We’ve walked through the darkest nights,
Held on through the longest fights,
No matter where the journey ends,
You’re my home, my love, my heart to mend.

The years have passed, but our fire glows,
Through fields of gold and the winter snows,
Our hands still clasped, our spirits free,
Forever bound, it’s you and me.

We’ve walked through the darkest nights,
Held on through the longest fights,
No matter where the journey ends,
You’re my home, my love, my heart to mend.

If the stars should fall and the earth should break,
I’d choose you again, no matter what’s at stake,
For love like ours can outlast the time,
It’s a bond eternal, forever yours, forever mine.

We’ve walked through the darkest nights,
Held on through the longest fights,
No matter where the journey ends,
You’re my home, my love, my heart to mend.

My Heart to Mend

This remastered album is the musical journey accompanying the harrowing events of Book 3 of "Hinter uns das Land" ("Behind Us The Land"), a poignant novel by Frank Talmon l'Armée. As the war closes in, the Feyerabend family, along with countless others, is forced to make the heart-wrenching decision to flee their beloved home in East Prussia. This collection of 16 tracks captures the emotional turmoil and the perilous journey that unfolds, painting a vivid sonic picture of a family caught in the midst of historical upheaval.

Book 3 plunges the listener into the chaos and fear of the final days of the war in East Prussia. The once-familiar streets of Danzig (now Gdańsk) become a haunting labyrinth of desperation and uncertainty as Inge and her family navigate the treacherous path to the harbor. The music reflects the growing tension, the ever-present threat, and the agonizing choices forced upon those seeking refuge. You will sense in the music the desperation of many refugees, but also their determination to survive.

The journey culminates in the boarding of the "Lappland," a vessel overflowing with refugees, all carrying their own stories of loss and hope. As the ship embarks across the vast and unforgiving Baltic Sea, the music evokes the vastness of the ocean, the precariousness of their situation, and the uncertain future that awaits them. You can hear in the sounds the inner turmoil of the characters: the children who do not yet fully comprehend what is happening and the adults who try to hold on to hope in the face of unimaginable fear.

From haunting melodies that echo the emptiness of a lost home to surging orchestrations that mirror the turbulent sea, this soundtrack captures the full spectrum of human emotion in times of war. Moments of quiet reflection are interspersed with powerful, driving rhythms, reflecting the resilience and determination of those who refuse to give up hope, although they know their lives will never be the same.

This musical collection offers a unique and immersive experience, drawing the listener deeper into the world of "Hinter uns das Land." It's a testament to the enduring power of family, the unwavering human spirit, and the search for peace amidst the ravages of war.

This song is part of the album “Why me – but why not me too”.
It is not to be seen on its own, but as part of a journey I have to live through since my diagnosis. Each track tells a piece of this path – honest, raw, and unfiltered.
