May 22 Freak Radio Playlist

I hope this isn't it...going in for surgery...was in a mad rush to get these songs out of my head and into the world just in case I leave it...but hopefully I will be able to fix some of these broken songs...and my broken brain?

If This Is It!?

NUNCA SAY JAMAIS PLUS

Thanks y'all! So many notifications I didn't know where to start, but thank you for helping Dreams Fade Away hit 100 plays while I've been incapacitated! It's the little things in life that bring you joy! <3

If you are feeling left out, I will make another soon,,,I mean who really listens to those 50 song playlists? Hell, 20 is pushing it, but doing my best under the influence of heavy drugs? Ha ha...

And songs with K in their play total may get moved down the list to bring attention to more obscure artists, but that doesn't mean I'm not going to add to your impressive totals? ;)

Sorry...so high right now...

Thank you SoundCloud, for keeping the Dream alive!

:
Suddenly you come across an opening in the forest - a fading landscape of forgotten names...
fading green is the third tune off the d'ville EP >soundcloud.com/jh0st/sets/dville

--------------------lyrics

No one said that
we would see
Family to no one
Sunlight through trees
No one asked for
an early grave

Stones of names a fade away…

When the clouds come down
water upside down
Order of each name
Feather on tongue

Thousand heart beats in the trees
now gone on the wings of…

day's fading green

fading green [ft. 4catsncoffee]

This is a song that I thought was about someone else, but it's more likely just about me. 

lyrics

Looks like you've got everything you want
there ain't a single thing left that you need
you're flowing through life like the sea
boy you don't see the woods for the trees

I wouldn't decline no invitation 
to go smacking your head against the pavement
flick through warning signs but you don't read
boy you don't see the woods for the trees

keep pushing all our worries around
try to bury them deep underground
you better keep that spade close at hand
so we can dig out your head from the sand

when I burst into your surgery seeking remedies
you called the alarm
now I've swallowed all the pills you prescribed
I'm telling you I want to be discharged


Keep giving all the people your time
your family said you've got an altruistic mind
but they won't tell you when you're so sick
or that you're life's greatest fucking hypocrite

I know I don't got too much education
but I deciphered your charm from fabrication
I used to bite at the slightest provocation 
now I'll just growl and consider each situation

I may not have everything I want
but I got from you what I need
You ain't got nothing left for me
boy you don't see the woods from the trees

recorded at home on my tascam 8 track

Woods For The Trees (I'm Alright Jack)

All We Have Is Now

LYRICS: 

See the world that's blistering
Shone upon by a colorless sun
A wicked sun, a silent sun
Living between islands of pain
Gets a little hard but I'm in charge
Charge it to my credit card
Everybody has a hand in
We'll leap the edge and crash on rapids water
And consequences later

Something is attractive
Could be radioactive
Or my imagination
On the radio station
Gold on every axis
Enough to pay your taxes
We are for the people
Capitol or steeple
Among the pigs and prophets
We thought you might have bought it
To the fore we file in
Cue the sliding violin

When the money still remains
You don't talk until they pull the strings
Looking out for better things
I think your message struck a nerve
Take a bow and get what you deserve
Ride a transcendental curve
All the treasure that remains
Might be better spent on telling lies
Keep it in a sheep disguise

Shaking out your pockets
I think you finally lost it
Treat me like a play thing
Might be smoother sailing
Future past and present
Burn the farm and sell it
Slurry words and stipends
Might get a little violent
All the times you're wasting
Disaster in the making
A million mouths you're feeding
Smash through the glass ceiling

Rainfall and the rainfall
And the rainfall and the rainfall
Rainfall and the rainfall
And the rainfall and the rainfall
Rainfall and the rainfall
And the rainfall and the rainfall
Rainfall and the rainfall
And the rainfall 

If the world has gone to hell
You don't care because you took it all
And you still want more

Easy to feel deranged
Harder to make good sense of it all
Line 'em up against the wall

Through the cracks a glimmer of peace
Shake it off, it does no good at all
Until we make the final call

Nature does its own thing
No point in explaining
Off the top you're taking
Yielding next to nothing

If you look you see them
Whinging ad nauseam
In the heat we're brawling
Missed the final calling

Stretched so thin we relapse
Picked up by the bootstraps
Sounds a bit dumb to me
So why don't you kill me

Rainfall and the rainfall
And the rainfall and the rainfall
Rainfall and the rainfall
And the rainfall and the rainfall
Rainfall and the rainfall
And the rainfall and the rainfall
Rainfall and the rainfall
And the rainfall

I've been empty, I've been humble
Been some kind of curiosity
I spent too many years imprisoned in a cell of pure hypocrisy
An eager tutor learned the time
But soon forgot the skills needed to count
I owe you big style oh you treasure
And by god owe you a large amount

CHORUS
I was all charged
I  was incomplete
Scratched up and scarred
But it seems I firmly fell on my feet
Wave the white flag
Ignore what I said
I had love jet lag
But then I kind of met you instead
So many talents
You don't know you have
We're losing our balance
To find it we require a Satnav
There's no hill to climb
There's no more I need
When it comes to my time
Surely you are my missing piece

Hear the cheering, hear the trumpets
Hear the carnival of chaos crash
I think I inadvertently created some kind of a front page splash

CHORUS

You're a jewel a pure treasure
You are everything that I could want
Would you like another cocktail in this Jamaican restaurant?

You may be wondering how this song acquired the title it did.  These very words were actually said to me by one of my wife Jo's three long-standing and very close friends.  Over the years, they had all entered into long-term partnerships which, for differing reasons, ended very sadly, resulting in them being left on their own.  So I was, in a manner of speaking, last man standing.

When they needed a male presence, I was volunteered to help in a variety of ways, e.g. being a pretend boyfriend when one of them was being pestered by someone in whom they were not interested.  There are many more instances I could recount, some of which were definitely in the ‘very unusual’ category but I was always happy to be of help if I possibly could.  Besides which, they often turned out to be exceedingly amusing.

Fast forward a few years to when I was diagnosed with MS, which brought about a condition called Trigeminal Neuralgia, causing pain the like of which I’d not known before.  After a spell taking hefty painkilling drugs that basically turned me into a kind of zombie, my MS specialist suggested ‘Gamma Knife Procedure’.  

This involves (and I kid you not) a metal helmet being screwed directly into your skull at four strategic points, rendering your head totally immobile so that radioactive rays can, with pinpoint accuracy, be fired at your Trigeminal Nerve.  It is indeed a singular sensation to feel blood trickling down your face as said helmet is fixed into place but the benefits that ensued were more than worth the temporary inconvenience.  I was pretty much pain-free for the next two years, after which it did return but all things considered, was extremely pleased with the result.

To celebrate, a dinner party was thrown in my honour, a splendid time guaranteed for all.  It was here that Jo’s friend, whose husband had sadly died, uttered the immortal phrase.  It caused much laughter, as it rightly should have.  I wasn’t in the least offended and, anyway, my very first thought was “What a great title for a song”.

Once again, deep thanks are due to Hans for not only producing two brilliant versions of this song but videos to go with each (links above).  The man has a depth of talent of which others can only dream, myself included.  Thanks so much for listening.  (Terry Reeves)

I was invited to a party
I tingled with the chance
To talk about the future
Step in and out of the past
Who’s that man in the corner?
Wearing a helmet on his head?
This is just my day wear
The gamma ray gun Doctor said
(I heard someone say)

Why ain't you not dead yet?
Why are you still here?
Why are you the only man?
Who smiles and has no fear?

We talked about the weather
And laughed about the grass
The world is tasting plastic
And it doesn't seem to last
Who's that man in the corner? 
With the radiation smile
The glow won't last for ever
Why not enjoy it for a while?
(I heard someone say)

Why ain't you not dead yet?
Why are you still here?
Why are you the only man?
Who has ten layers of veneer? 

We shared some special moments
And showed the battle scars
A pigment of growing older
Figments hidden in a jar
Who's that man in the corner? 
Four holes drilled into his head
Tried to screw me to the wall
Keep me standing and out of bed
(I heard someone say)

Why ain't you not dead yet?
Why are you still here?
Why are you the only man?
Who we seem to volunteer?

Why ain't you not dead yet?
Why are you still here?
Why are you the only man?
Who floats in this atmosphere?

Why ain’t you not dead yet?
I may not be really here
If my name gets mentioned 
I want a smile and not a tear

Keep smiling, I want to smile
Keep smiling, Give me a smile
I want to smile, I want to smile
Yeah, smile...

WHY AIN'T YOU NOT DEAD YET? - Cripple Club & Hans Albers (Video links with description)

I got a short term memory
Goldfish remember more than me
I forget half of what I do
Apart from time with you
Its tough when you are not around
I sulk and drop down to the ground
I tried to do what Prince did
But I removed no rib

CHORUS
Bed - We said
Head to bed
Or something just as fun instead

My heart is always yearning
A passion spiced and burning
Excuse my occasional flaws
I blame the manopause
To crave the icy finger
Then pray that it doth linger
I can't contain excitement
Lets just head up to the bed

CHORUS

My brain it sure is spinning
It did from the beginning
If anything its faster
I hope that I'm a Laster
To feel you in the morning
As the new day is dawning
I have an increasing head
Lets just head up to the bed

CHORUS

LYRICS:

No rest on earth for a sinner
A crushing blow I deliver
I wash my hands clean of the day
What can I do? What can I say?

There is nothing left but the wicked
The malady with which you're stricken
A hundred lies still in the quiver
A darkness falls and makes you shiver
And makes you shiver

A recipe for sheer disaster
A slight of hand by your master
And seeds are sown, they grow a garden
A fragile mind that's forced to harden

There is nothing left but the wicked
The malady with which you're stricken
A hundred lies still in the quiver
A darkness falls and makes you shiver
And makes you shiver

And darkness grows
What do you know?
You've lost control
You are not in control

And if you feel like a stranger
You might just be in certain danger
And if you're feeling copacetic
The lights die down and then you get it

There is nothing left for the wicked
The malady with which you're stricken
A hundred lies still in the quiver
A darkness falls and makes you shiver
A darkness falls and makes you shiver
A darkness falls and makes you shiver
And makes you shiver

Thanks for listening x

Edie

She got a pocket full of mighty fine, fine intentions
She got a way, she got a way that somehow makes you feel good
She got a story full of love and hate and other complications
Got you hooked on her smile, hooked and hung on a hook. (x2)

She got a promise full of smoky red wine redemption
She makes you pay, she makes you pay as if she's drawing your blood
She got a black heart full of war and peace and other aggravation
Got you hooked on her smile, hooked and hung on a hook. (x2)

She got you hung on a hook
Hung on a hook, she got you hung on a hook
She got you hung on a hook

Little cat all alone like that, in ballet flats in the snow
Little cat all alone like that, hey Edie, where you gonna go?
Little cat all alone like that, in ballet flats in the snow
Little cat all alone like that, hey Edie, where you gonna go?
I say Edie, where you gonna go? 
Oooooooh Ooooooooh

Edie oh Edie oh black-hearted Edie
Littered, lost love-lorn and ghost
Edie oh Edie oh black-hearted Edie
The one that I still love the  most
Edie oh Edie oh black-hearted Edie
The one that I still love the most

DOWNFORCE
When the pressure subsides
As our worlds collide
And we can both confide
Our secrets learnt

As the downforce hits
And our giggling fits
Have us both in bits
Smiling but burnt

Stability maintained
As the downforce gained
Is the pressure just feigned
Or duly earnt?

CHORUS
And the pressures building up from inside
Yet I'm feeling more stable
And the pressures building up will subside

And the downforce
But neither want out
So we scream and shout
The pressure on

CHORUS

Watched and I Did

How does it happen
A child learns to talk
You ask the child how
The child says I don’t know
I just heard sounds and I imitated them
You ask a bird how to fly
The bird will say I watched other birds
I did what I saw and the next thing I know I was flying
You ask a wolf how it hunts
The wolf will say I don’t know
I just watched and did

Watched and did, watched and did
That is what I did
I watched and did

Watched And I Did (with Dave Cooper)

Jamais plus, (*Translation below*)

Plus jamais, je ne la reverrai
Plus jamais, je ne l'entendrai
oublier tout ce qui s'est passé
oublier que nous nous sommes aimé.
Plus jamais, je ne l'appellerai
plus jamais, je ne lui écrirai
effacer son visage de mes pensées
effacer sa voix de ces bandes usées.

Un peu cassé, je sortirai du fossé
vous retrouver, je sais que vous m'attendez
chère inconnue, je viendrai vous chercher
car jamais plus, je ne saurai me tromper.
Un jour de mai, nous nous sommes embrassés
Un jour, oui mais, depuis nous sommes enlacés
Mon ingénue, c'est bien de vous dont j'ai rêvé
car jamais plus je ne saurai me tromper.

Never again,

Never again will I see her again
Never again will I hear her
forget everything that happened
forget that we loved each other.
Never again will I call her
never again will I write to her
erase her face from my thoughts
erase her voice from these worn tapes.

Kinda broke, I'll get out the ditch
find you, I know you are waiting for me
dear stranger, I will come and get you
because never again will I be able to be wrong.
One day in May we kissed
One day, yes but, since we are intertwined
My ingenue, it's really you I dreamed of
because never again will I be able to be wrong.

Lets face it, we all love the music we make and share. This is my own latest fave :)

Fun fact, in childhood I was always impressed by those pianists walking blazing fast thru the keys. Here in the bridge (1:41-2:14)I "did it". Not on a piano keys. On Push 2. Also put into a scale. Quickly running up and down on 5x5 grid ... not really knowing what I'm doing :) Dreams come true, she is getting near! 

Lead synth is Arturia OP-Xa VST also played on Push 2 pads, no programming. Some Polybrute, few Pigments lines, and IK Syntronik. With lotsa FabFilter Pro-C, Pro-Q3, Timeless.

I am so glad that making music has maintained our friendship and kept us together. Some people maintain friendships through going out to eat, watching sporting events, doing family things together, etc. I make music with my friends. 

Thanks to Russ and Jon for being my musical friends as well. Jon is so awesome, I can say, let's try making a late 60’s psychedelic cumbia inspired track, and he can then say, sure! And Russ is always down for the ride, thanks for taking over the wheel while we trip on some shrooms, lol!

This song is for anyone who wants to get out of the crazy world we're all living in right now. I am finding more and more it's what is missing where we are that is what makes us all long for more.

Out of this world 
Highh above the clouds 
I want rocket ship
To soar across
Thre galaxy 
More than sea 
to sea
 I know what's missing 
is where I wanna go

I don't want to go anywhere
Else than where I can see
Us working together 
Disconnection on this planet 
Has me seeking a connection
Out of this world

Cover art by Jooinn.

This is a totally stolen idea gleaned from another one of those phone conversations with my brother Gary. We talk to each other every few days and normally end up sounding like two old men sitting on a park bench putting the World to rights.

I’m sure a lot of what we say has been said many times before (what hasn’t?) but one day, out of the blue, Gal says to me “ Sometimes I find things too difficult to deal with. I would love the opportunity to step off the world for just one second and clear my head a bit...” At the time I just accepted it as the type of thing we say to each other but two days after the phone call the idea of stepping off the world to escape the pressures of daily life returned when I was playing my guitar. The words “I’m stepping off, I’m stepping off” fitted with what I was playing and the start of a new opus was born.

Once a song seems complete, I generally record a quick demo and send it off to Gal to see if it has any potential. If he thinks it has, between us we try to put a better demo together to send to Hans.  If he thinks it’s any good, he’ll work on an arrangement and more often than not sends back something back that sounds way better than what we’d imagined.  

We might chip in a few ideas here and there (as Gal did with a totally new drum arrangement on this) but Hans is definitely the one that gives it most of it’s final shape and sound.  I love every step of the songwriting process.  It provides a kind of therapy and the creative process gives every day purpose and interest.  You could say it’s my way of stepping off the world for a short moment.
(Terry Reeves)

I’m stepping off the world
To give myself a chance
For a moment of reflection
Avoid the need to dance 
One thousand miles per hour
Never firmly on the ground 
Gravity with no connection 
Spinning fast head going round 

Stepping off, I’m stepping off
I’m stepping off, I’m stepping off
I’m stepping off, I’m stepping off
Stepping off the world 

No New Year's Revolution 
Rotating much too fast 
Survival of the fittest
Fittest days are in the past
Step off every Monday
Not back until Tuesday week
One moment makes a difference
Like a lifetime so to speak

Stepping off, I’m stepping off
I’m stepping off, I’m stepping off
I’m stepping off, I’m stepping off
Stepping off the world

Don’t want to give a reason
Good feelings are oppressed 
Try different constellation 
Laying down has more interest
Stepping off a single second 
With no single past regret
Not a care for single thinking 
Avoid joining one single thread

Stepping off, I’m stepping off
I’m stepping off, I’m stepping off
I’m stepping off, I’m stepping off the world
Stepping off the world, Stepping off the world, Stepping off the world, Stepping off the world, Stepping off the world, Stepping off the world...

By The Way 100 BPM-Vocal Short

The first song I wrote with the lovely accompaniment of Theo Passingham on guitar and vocal.

Hannah

I shouldn't be releasing this, for oh so many reasons... My apologies (or not...) in advance.

I'm Irrelevant (Flower Crown Mix)

Little to say about this song; both lyrics and music (all organic but for programmed drums) were done very impulsively, so it may show my primal inspiration without reworks or additions. Hope you'll enjoy it!

Translated Lyrics:

YO PENSÉ (LA SEXTA VEZ) / I THOUGHT (THE SIXTH TIME)

Yo pensé: esa mujer no es peligrosa…
  (I thought: that woman is not dangerous …)
No esperé enamorarme como un idiota.
  (I did not expect to fall in love like an idiot.)
Me pregunté: ¿qué tiene en los ojos que tanto me tienta?
  (I wondered: what’s in her eyes which tempts me so much?)
y me acerqué para hablar con ella y verlos de cerca.
  (And I got closer to speak with her and watch them closely.)

Y si era la primera vez, ¿por qué no extrañaba hacerlo con ella?
  (And if it was the first time, why didn’t I feel strange doing it with her?)
Y si era la primera vez, ¿por qué parecía que era la sexta?
  (And if it was the first time, why did it seem to be the sixth one?)
Y si era la sexta vez, ¿por qué hubo preguntas después de la escena?
  (And if it was the sixth time, why were there questions after the scene?)

Y si fue la única vez, ¿por qué no puedo apartarla de mi cabeza?
  (And if it was the unique time, why cannot I take her out of my head?)

街の灯 / city lights
===============

その美しい曲線は　夜陰にまぎれて
照らすもののない隙間から　こっちを視ている

あたかも本当の風に　吹かれてるようだ
抜け道のはるか向こうへ　翔べるなら　堕ちるなんて遊び



背を向けられた路地裏は　一見静かで
照らすもののない街灯は　青白くなった

歩き去るならあまりにも　都合のよすぎる
抜け道のはるか向こうへ　夜の岸辺の　散歩でも



打ち棄てられた言の葉は　一見無口で
照らすもののない存在なんて　考えたくもない

あたかも本当の君を　視ているみたいだ
堕ちた砂粒の軌跡　その光を　見逃してしまった



その美しい曲線は　夜陰にまぎれて
照らすもののない空間で　夜明けを待ってる

あたかも本当の君に　触れているようだ
抜け道のはるか向こうへ　翔べるなら　堕ちるなんて遊び
