May You Live In Interesting Times

spent 35 years on this couch
trying to figure it out
while everyone brought home a baby
always though they were missing out
they never cared what i talked about
now i'm afraid i'm too late for everything

i should've known
where this was gonna go
cuz i traded all of my time
waiting on these stars would align
aways the now or never kind
making every stupid bet with my life

so i put it all down on paper
they said that would matter later
but no one ever got smarter
now i'm just paying my rent
earning my dads respect
smiling my way through the death march

i should've known
where this was gonna go
cuz i wasted all my time
hoping these stars would align
aways the now or never kind
making every stupid bet with my life

I Should've Known

I released this track during 3-rd covid lockdown. I had some time to spare so I remade my old track Bassline playground. That one has only one bass sound all the way through, so I found even better one for most of the song (except the riff, which stayed unaltered). 

The structure is simple: riff, verse 1, chorus, verse 2, chorus, riff, chorus. Rhythms are 3. One playing during riff - that one is original, and freshly composed on the spot. Next two are basic techno rhythms, first one in first verse, and second for the rest of song. The only thing that changes in those rhythms is hi-hat. 

Picture is made in Canva, I just throwed in some clipart pics together, but the message is clear, I hope. And with the name of song (warning immediate noise), it kind of suggests a loud and aggressive sound from the very beginning. Song plays only drums and bass, no melody or any other sounds. There's only one drum fill-up, and even that one is at the very end, and the track generally could be labelled as minimalistic too. Happy listening.

Warning immediate noise

Once again a somewhat experimental song with a touch of the Orient. A mix of digital and analog sounds, matching the beautiful lyric and vocals of Cecilia. Let's dive into hypnotic oriental sounds.

Lyrics
        
How Wonderful is the Nature & all the living creatures
such Beautiful landscapes, arts & architectures
There is Treasures all over the Earth
and
Life could be so Beautiful
Life could be so Wonderful
But so many act as a fool

Oh Why oh Why I don't know why

Life could be so Beautiful
Life could be so Wonderful
But so many act as a fool

Heart they don't Love, Soul they don't Feel

Oh Why oh Why I don't know why

Some people seems so heartless
they think they are the best
just look their own interest
don't care about the rest

Oh Why oh Why I don't know why.....

Life could be so Beautiful
Life could be so Wonderful

Could Be So Wonderful - Special Cecilia & OMCB

time is fleeting
do not return
nothing is forever
the world inside me collapsed
death inside me
pain and suffering
the end is near
decision is made
time is water
life is a dream
we all wander in the dark
all around darkness
sadness oppresses
you are a slave to fate
fighting myself every day

Humpty Dumpty

"Wake Up Call" will be one of the next singles of Blue Return. A noisy guitar based hangover morning situation that cries out for coffee or whiskey, but definitely for movement. Wake Up. Change your life. Dance!

Don't you know that I adore you
Don't you know that I'm your biggest fan
When I call you, you hang up
9 times out of 10

Don't you say, you're feeling sorry
Don't you know there is a better plan
Any time you call my name
I don't know who I am

I think it's funny that you do not act your age
I think it's funny that you're hiding in your cave

And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you
And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you
And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you
And you better wake up, it's a wake up call 

Don't you know that I adore you, 
but I know I'm not the perfect man
What we crave for we give up
9 times out of 10

I think it's funny that we do not act your age
I think it's funny that we're hiding in our cave

And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you
And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you
And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you
And you better wake up, it's a wake up call 

And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you
And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you
And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you
And you better wake up, it's a wake up call 

Bullhorn: All day long the night may fall I do not think of you 
Seems I'm only happy for a while
All day long the night may fall I do not think it's true
Seems I'm only happy when you smile

And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you
And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you

“to not have to deal with doubt
to not have to listen to the tapping of insecurities
door always closed
not to have to dream of dreaming
and then dream that the dream was lost
not to have to pay the price
with no inkling of the correct cost…”

Includes fragment of “Round Midnight” written by Thelonious Monk (1944)

Here is my version of Bob Seger and The Silver Bullet Bands song 'Turn The Page'.

Always loved this one and I hope I've done it justice 

#bobseger #turnthepage #cover #rock #70s #metallica #classic 


***LYRICS***

On a long and lonesome highway, east of Omaha
You can listen to the engine moanin' out its one-note song
You can think about the woman, or the girl you knew the night before 

But your thoughts will soon be wandering, the way they always do
When you're riding sixteen hours and there's nothing much to do
And you don't feel much like riding, you just wish the trip was through 

Here I am, on a road again
There I am, up on the stage
Here I go, playing star again
There I go, turn the page



Well, you walk into a restaurant all strung-out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you as you're shaking off the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother you, but you just want to explode 

Most times you can't hear 'em talk, other times you can
All the same old clichés, is it woman, is it man?
And you always seem outnumbered, so you don't dare make a stand 

Here I am, on a road again
There I am, up on the stage
Here I go, playing star again
There I go, turn the page 

Out there in the spotlight you're a million miles away
Every ounce of energy you try to give away
As the sweat pours out your body like the music that you play 

Later in the evening as you lie awake in bed
With the echoes from the amplifiers ringin' in your head
You smoke the day's last cigarette, remembering what she said 

Say Here I am, on a road again
There I am, up on the stage
Here I go, playing the star again
There I go, turn the page 

say Here I am, on a road again
There I am, on the stage, 
Here I go, playing the star again
There I go, turn the page 
There I goooooo turn the page 

turn the page 
turn the page
turn the page
turn the page

Turn the Page (cover)

Like Heaven (1.2e)

Our cover of "Welcome to the Machine" by Pink Floyd, sans acoustic guitar. Lyrics gently updated.

Welcome to the Machine

When I was just a lad
I heard about a curse
May you live in interesting times

That didn’t sound so bad
Things could be much worse
Than to live in interesting times

Riots and pandemics, war and global warming, hunger and bigotry, 
income inequality, dictators and censorship, ignorance and hatred

When I was just a lad
I heard about a curse
May you live in interesting times

That didn’t sound so bad
Things could be much worse
Than to live in interesting times

Now that I’m old and gray
I see it’s always been this way
Now that I’m old and gray
I see it’s always been this way

Nothing is eternal
Everything is fleeting
Hope is universal, but
History just keeps repeating

This is an instrumental using the acoustic and telecaster to go along with the beats, bassline and synth hooks.
