Mnemosyne (factual mix)

The name Miranda comes from the Latin word for "Wonderful" and was first used as a given name by William Shakespeare in The Tempest.

It's also the name of a dearly beloved cat.

Miranda

Written and performed by Bluebird
Produced by Richard Brown

Two million kisses are going your way 
and when you wake up
You'll remember my name

All through the years I felt you beside me
And when I woke up I remembered my dreams

If you feel alone hold on to me
our memories are just like our dreams
Falling like leaves, Falling like leaves

Three million wishes and just one remains
A light in the dark guiding the way

All through the years I felt you beside me
And when I woke up I remembered my dreams

If you feel alone hold on to me
our memories are just like our dreams
Falling like leaves, Falling like leaves

Searching for light with you by my side
Holding me tight
All through this life searching for light
with you by my side
Holding me tight

Our Dreams

I saw this headline in The Guardian and thought 'song title'. It gives us humans something else bizarre to wrestle with. 

AI FAKE NUDES ARE BOOMING THIS YEAR

She comes up from harborside.   
Anchor orange and rusty grind
Flanks of friends - jaded eyes
Curve and laugh make me decide

She spins a deft Utopia              
Now I’m starving Ethiopia.        

But AI fake nudes are booming this year.    
Look em in the eye there’s a smiling stare
AI fake nudes are booming this year
Say what you like and they won’t care

Summer winds they soon abate
While the hooks are steel and barbed
Now the quips ingratiate
And the bedroom falls apart

She spins a deft Utopia              
Now I’m starving Ethiopia.        

But AI fake nudes are booming this year. . . 

Wallowing into internet
Chained by fingers’ rings
How something grew from nothing
And finished less than that
She spins a deft Utopia . . .             
AI fake nudes are booming this year. . .

AI Fake Nudes are Booming this Year

Harlequin    
(Words Richsoundz, Music John Stone)

V1:
Call it kismet, call it luck
Everything just meshed
I was drifting, ever-shifting
Never knew where I'd be next

V2:
Like autumn leaves you came to me
Upon a timely breeze
Never thought I'd make sound gestures
But I'm down on bended knee


Ch1:
You're a riot of bright colours
Streaming from above
Like after a stormy sky
Your hues are vibrant, full of love
Never dreamed I'd find your kind
And your heart I'd win
You're my Rainbow Girl and favourite Harlequin


  V3:
You're the best thing that could happen
To my solitude
Ain't no other can compare
In stirring both my soul and mood
:
Colours are your trademark
With little black and white 
Rich and deep, just like your feelings
Lush and vivid, through the night
Grey's a hue that you don't do:
So featureless and pale
You're my priceless work of art but on a grander    scale

Ch1:
You're a riot of bright colours
Streaming from above
Like after a stormy sky
Your hues are vibrant, full of love
Never dreamed I'd find your kind
And your heart I'd win
You're my Rainbow Girl and favourite Harlequin

Roots  (Racines : à la suite en Français )

My dear brother , my Theo 
Thank you for your letter and the bill but it's too much
Since things are going well for you and yours 
What do we have to do with what is less so?
My dear brother , my Theo
You have your share in my work, my paintings 
which in the debacle keep their calm, and that's beautiful!

I risk my life in my work
my reason has half melted away.
I've already had bouts of madness
my condition must have worsened.

My dear brother, my Theo 
I'm a burden to you, for me it's too much 
You owe it to your son, to your family 
my painting will never be a source of profit. 
 
My dear brother , my Théo  
I'm sending you "Roots", my last painting.
I'm going to finish it with my blood
then die at the Ravoux: it's high time.


I'm risking my life for my work
my reason has half melted.
I've already had bouts of madness
my condition is only getting worse.  

My dear brother Theodore
lying beside me, what a comfort
you have joined me now in Auvers
where we rest, my brother, two feet under!

My work cost me my life
my sanity melted away
I had many fits of madness
my state was desperate.


Racines 

Mon cher frère , mon Théo 
Merci de ta lettre et du billet mais c’est trop
Puisque cela va bien  pour toi et les tiens 
Qu’avons nous à faire de ce qui l’est moins ?
Mon cher frère , mon Théo
Tu as  ta part dans mon oeuvre , mes tableaux 
qui dans la débâcle gardent leur calme , et c’est beau !

Mon travail à moi j’y risque ma vie
ma raison y a fondu à moitié .
J’ai déjà eu des accès de folie
mon état a du s’aggraver .

Mon cher frère , mon Théo 
Je suis une charge pour toi , pour moi s’en est trop 
Tu te dois à ton fils , à ta famille 
ma peinture ne sera jamais une source de profit . 
 
Mon cher frère , mon Théo  
je t’envoie  « Racines «  mon dernier tableau .
Je vais le terminer avec mon sang
puis mourrir chez les Ravoux  : il est grand temps .


Mon travail à moi j’y risque ma vie
ma raison y a fondu à moitié .
J’ai déjà eu des accès de folie
mon état ne fait que s’aggraver .  

Mon cher frère Theodore
allongé près de moi , quel réconfort
tu m’as rejoint à présent à Auvers
où nous reposons , mon frère , deux pieds sous terre !

Mon travail à moi m’a couté la vie
ma raison y a fondu en entier
J’ai eu de nombreux accès de folie
mon état était désespéré .

Chaos

Who can say where the road goes?
Where the day flows? Only time
And who can say if your love grows
As your heart chose? Only time

Who can say why your heart sighs
As your love flies? Only time
And who can say why your heart cries
When your love lies? Only time

Who can say when the roads meet?
That love might be in your heart?
And who can say when the day sleeps
If the night keeps all your heart?
Night keeps all your heart

Who can say if your love grows
As your heart chose? Only time
And who can say where the road goes?
Where the day flows? Only time

Who knows? Only time
Who knows? Only time

Only Time (Enya Cover)

Lyrics:

When there’s nothing to do 
Absolutely nothing to do
I sit down
And wait
And wait

Hours turn to days 
And I fade away

I’m not moving at all
I’m watching the process, yes 
I’m not moving at all
You know that I’m a big mess

The clouds are hanging low 
over my head
I wish that I could touch em 
And swirl them all round

I spend my time on balcony 
whenever I have the time 
After this I go inside
and watch shit on the TV

I’m not moving
I’m watching the process, yes
I’m not moving at all
I’m learning from you boss

How does it feel, ooh 
How does it feel, ooh 
How does it feel

Not to feel anything 
Not to feel anything 
Not to feel anything 
Not to feel anything 
Not to feel anything 
Not to feel anything 
Not to feel anything 
Not to feel anything

Lyrics:

We sit and do the crossword,
It’s warm outside,
The letters catch along the side,
And dance beyond the lines

And I can’t think, 
It’s hardest to erase,
The word we had before the word,
We have now in its place 

And so I need,
The clues we have beside,
But after all this back and forth,
It’s harder to define 

So I, try to find the words in this house,
I try to find the words for us now 

I…

We sit and do the crossword,
It’s hard to explain,
The letters rise above the page,
and march their own parade 

The corners twist,
The angles tap, 
The edges sway, swing, scat 

And so I catch, open up my palm,
Look at all these letters here, 
Arrange them one by one 

Years go by and we don’t feel the time
Years go by and everyday is fine
Years go by oh how we feel alive
we feel alive, we feel alive, we feel alive 

When I, find the words in this house
I find the words for us now 

When I, find the words in this house
Ooh yeah

We sit and do the crossword,
This puzzles like a song,
And after time, we realise,
That's where these words belong

Crossword

if ya don't know where you gonna go
how you gonna ever place it

if ya don't ride with the moonlight
how will you know that the time has arrived

so rise
and shine

if you don't know how to unload
how ya ever gonna take off

if you're undone check into the sun
maybe you'll make your way up

so rise
and shine

how do ya know
if you don't know
how do you grow
if you don't show
what do ya say
what are you for
under the sun
everything's wonderful

so rise

if you don't wait you won't be late
take a little time to contemplate

let it go 'n see where it all shakes out
'til you really know what it's all about

so rise
'n shine

rise

Watch Out (2017) Anthology CD2 Track 04

Me and Gaz recorded this about a year ago. Truth be known I think I like this way more than he does hence the delay in releasing! lol

A bit different to our normal approach, where I send Gaz music tracks for him to write and record vocals to, this one started with the lyrics - based on a dream Gaz had had.

A bizarre dream in which he and I were in a studio with Ian McNabb (Icicle Works) and Noel Gallagher (Oasis etc) who we both really like and admire.  The story is then a retelling of Gaz's dream complete with him spilling coffee (americano specifically!) down his jeans near the end!

I tried to match the crazy lyrics to a slightly chaotic and psychedelic backing track!

Truly a Weird Wonderful Dream..................

Weird Wonderful Dream    -   Conscience of Kings

Why doesn't it matter now?  

Is it we can't be collectively bothered as a species, because it can wait, or is it we are already past the tipping point so nothing in reality we can do ?!

Another lesser spotted solo track....  Thanks for listening
