9000 Things To See

Want Me Forever?

Speakeasy Ditty

On May 13, 2015, my brother-in-law Eduardo Fortuny Loret de Mola was killed in a road accident, to the great sorrow of all who knew and loved him, in particular his widow and two sons. I wrote this song in the aftemath of his all too soon passing away, but the time never seemed right to try and record it ... until now, when Enna, his wife, read the lyrics and expressed her wish to hear a recorded version. It would also have been his 60th birthday this year. I took both as a sign that it was time, and thanks to the monumental musical and production abilities of Sergio Aguilar, not to mention the wonderful backing vocals of Beto Quintero, here it is.

The song, needless to say, but I will say it, is dedicated to Eduardo, and all who loved him.

Hallelujah is a transliteration of Hebrew: הַלְלוּ (hallū yāh), which means "praise ye Jah!" (from הַלְלוּ‎, "praise ye!" [8] and יָהּ‎, "Jah".)[9][10][11] The word hallēl in Hebrew means a joyous praise in song. The second part, Yah, is a shortened form of YHWH (Yahweh or Jehovah in modern English).
~ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hallelujah

“In traditional Christian thought, the final transition from life on earth to life in heaven is symbolized by crossing the Jordan River."
~ https://jesusway4you.com/2020/06/24/signs-and-symbols-of-the-bible-jordan-river/

“For what is it to die but to stand naked in the wind and to melt into the sun? And when the earth shall claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance.”
― Kahlil Gibran, artist and poet.

"The song is ended
But the melody lingers on
You and the song are gone
But the melody lingers on."
~ Irving Berlin, songwriter.

“Do you not know that a man is not dead while his name is still spoken?”
~ Terry Pratchett, English author.

Lyrics
Last night I dreamed my brother strode with Jesus by his side
With heavenly strength to move them on, they walked the ocean tide
I cried, “Dear brother, hold your haste, we all must journey home.”
“Jordan calls me,” was all he said, I knew myself alone
I knew myself alone

Hal-le-lu …. Hal-le-lu …. Hal-le-lu …. Hal-le-lu

Last night I dreamed my brother rode in tandem with James Dean
Along the streets and the highways that to this world are unseen
I cried, “Dear brother, promise me, you’ll meet me when I come.”
He smiled his smile, and raised his hand, I felt my world undone
I felt my world undone

Hal-le-lu …. Hal-le-lu …. Hal-le-lu …. Hal-le-lu

Now I’m awakened, oh, let me dream that dream once more
Hal-le-lu, Hal-le-lu, Hal-le-lu, Hal-le-lu, Hal-le-lu … yah

Now I’m awakened, oh, let me dream that dream once more
Hal-le-lu, Hal-le-lu, Hal-le-lu, Hal-le-lu, Hal-le-lu … yah

And take me over Jordan, see my brother walk upon its shore
Hal-le-lu, Hal-le-lu, Hal-le-lu, Hal-le-lu, Hal-le-lu … yah

Yeah, take me over Jordan, for I am tired and so heartsore
Hal-le-lu, Hal-le-lu, Hal-le-lu, Hal-le-lu, Hal-le-lu … yah

I Dreamed I Saw My Brother FT Beto Quintero (UKSC: Star Rating: 5 Commended Entry 2023)

for an old mate.............cheers for having a listen


sometimes i don't feel like being the social kind
catchup with you another day
i just need some time away, hope you don't mind

i did my time, paid my dues
wiped away my tears, sang my blues
said my goodbyes, some much too late
went to sleep with the devil, woke up a saint

if i could i think i would, get far away so im never found
but then again i don't like flying
so i'll just keep my good foot on the ground

i fought too much, sometimes not enough
tried to smooth out the edges, when its naturally rough
i've buttoned my lip, then yelled so loud
hung my head, then never felt so proud

to be a loner

Loner


Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh

The rhythm grabs control
Suddenly our body's in motion
We move...We groove

Sensation Sensation
Ooh Ooh... Ooh Ooh
Ooh Ooh

The power of the beat
Throbs the dancefloor
Yeah it steams
 Alpha and Beta Brainwaves
Oscillate, synchronized to the beat

And lovers are free to be

Lasers flash to the kick
You're caught in an instantaneous 
...trance state

The rhythm is in control
Suddenly our body's motion
It moves to the groove
We are one on the dancefloor

Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh

Obscure emotions are washed away
Flooded by analogue synth waves
Everytime we're caught up here
in our induced trance state of mind
Ooh Ooh... Ooh Ooh
Ooh Ooh

Laser flash strobes and kicks
Instantaneous trance
Let's go, hold my hand
Let's go, and dance
Don't,you, leave without me
Come and dance one last time to the beat
One last time to the beat

Dance with me be tranced be free 
Dance with me be tranced be free
Danse with me be tranced with me
Dance with me...danse with me
Danse with me be tranced with me
Dance with me be tranced be free

Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh 
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
Ahh oh yeah
ooh ooh huh huh ooh ohh

Wivresse my dear soundcloud friend and producer is credited for this amazing AI art creation.  Jano and the Electronix has entered into my soul with his synth's.

Auld Lang Syne (Trad. instrumental)

Another Foundation track. It was the bass synth that inspired the track, it made me think of an anti-gravity engine... 
The "machine gun" guitar is a Fender Telecaster bi-amped to give that meaty punch. The warbling guitar is a Deusenberg Paloma with a vibrato pedal, reverse delay and fuzz box put through a plexi amp.

Lyrics:
I used to know that truth is ours
I used to know that truth is ours

Pesticide, I used to know that truth is ours
Herbicide
Fungicide,I used to know that truth is ours
Insecticide

Pesticide, Carbon Dioxide Emission
Herbicide, Mankind Pollution Emission
Fungicide, Carbon Dioxide Emission
Insecticide, I used to know that truth is ours

Warm it’s so warm, the sun is burning
Warm it’s so warm, it’s the climatic change
Warm it’s so warm, the icebergs are melting
Warm it’s so warm, the forests are burning

Pesticide, Carbon Dioxide Emission
Herbicide, Mankind Pollution Emission
Fungicide, Carbon Dioxide Emission
Insecticide, I used to know that truth is ours

I used to know that truth is ours
I used to know that truth is ours

Pesticide, I used to know that truth is ours
Herbicide
Fungicide,I used to know that truth is ours
Insecticide

Pesticide, Carbon Dioxide Emission
Herbicide, Mankind Pollution Emission
Fungicide, Carbon Dioxide Emission
Insecticide, I used to know that truth is ours

Stop the Amazon Rainforest deforestation
Leave the tribes the birds and all the animals in peace
Stop the Amazon Rainforest deforestation
Leave the trees the birds and all the animals in peace

I used to know that truth is ours

Stop all the poachers now
Save all the animals now
Stop all the poachers now
Save all the animals now

Pesticide, Carbon Dioxide Emission
Herbicide, Mankind Pollution Emission
Fungicide, Carbon Dioxide Emission
Insecticide, Mankind Pollution Emission

Pesticide, I used to know that truth is ours
Herbicide
Fungicide,I used to know that truth is ours
Insecticide

So many wastes in the seas
Made widely Plastic seas
Wildlife is dying
Struck in Plastic seas
So many wastes in the seas
Made widely Plastic seas
Now it's time to clean
All the Plastic seas

I used to know that truth is ours

In the silence are there other ways ?
By my time is there another way ?
In the silence are there other ways ?
By my time is there another way ?

Pesticide, Carbon Dioxide Emission
Herbicide, Mankind Pollution Emission
Fungicide, Carbon Dioxide Emission
Insecticide, I used to know that truth is ours
