lyrics:
I wish there was an easy way
but easy would not teach me
notice the poison
negativity is contagious

so many things that went wrong
so many things I tried but went wrong
the world is upside down
no one feels really fine
so I'm looking for a way

how can I make a difference
how can I make this change
can I change the fate of our kind
can I clean all the mess we have left behind
can I heal and bless my feelings
my feelings are loosing me

I'm thinking too much
cauz nothing really matter
if I'm still breathing
my feelings are hurting
but it's a divine compass
that helps me to get on the right path

how can I break the habits
those that lead me to pain
how can I make this change
can I change the fate of my life
can I ease my nervous sensitivity
need to clean away this boring ambiant negativity

I want to see the change
I want to be the change
I want to see a change
cause it's at hand
and I have enough of my shit
want a change
cauze I have enough of our shit

lyrics based on the poem My Cocoon from These Tales Are True

my cocoon

not breaking the grounding between my feet
but stepping into the dance.
a move behind me at times
and then leading,

you work me into a circle
circling my radius
my cocoon
 
in my body
you work me, my cocoon, 
in a dance, in a dance, an inner dance

RUN AWAY

This song is in 5/4 time.  It feels a little off to me.  Perhaps I hit too many bad notes.  Maybe I overloaded it with instruments.  I play nylon string acoustic guitar (3 tracks), fretless Jazz bass, violin, and viola on this song.  Other sounds are midis available in Cubase.  My DAW is Cubase.  I use Izotope - Ozone for Mastering.  The title comes from the street we lived on in Chesterfield Missouri.

Fairway Bend

Composed and produced (mixing & mastering) by Val Akey. Used and programmed VSTIs:
- Drums: Addictive Drums;
- Double Bass: Broomstick Bass;
- Piano: FL Keys;
- Strings: VSCO2;
- Guitar: RealLPC.
Thank you for listening!

Levitation

For the 31st Solar Kama Sutra song I decided to challenge myself a bit and do something in 7/4 time.  I tried remembering a band I heard do that and thought, "Isn't Pink Floyd's "Money" in 7/4 time?"  I remembered hearing it and thinking it was...

...  Turns out it is!  So for that reason I thought of Pink Floyd, and tried to do a Pink Floydish sound.    It's also a nod to Radiohead's "Pyramid Song".  I tried to capture the same feeling that song gives me, but with Solar Kama Sutra this time. 
(by the way, Solar Kama Sutra has always been just one person.  It's just the name for what I call the music)

Since Radiohead already used "Pyramid" which is well-known since ancient Egypt to be the coolest shape, I had to go with something else.  "Sphere Song" and "Cube Song" ?...  Well...  Those song titles just aren't gonna work....   Maybe "Dodecahedron Song"?....  Hmm... That actually sounds pretty catchy...  Feel free to use it!  

 My vocals are used more heavily on this track than it seems.  Throughout the track I tried to make my vocals sound like guitars and other instruments

  And definitely hats off to Pink Floyd for making a hit song in a 7/4 time signature.   How many times has that been done before?!

And of course, hats off to Stonehenge.  The ultimate inspiration for this track

lastly, much respect & love for all of you who have dropped by once again

- John

Stonehenge Song

I dedicated the song "Monique" to two women: 
First of all to my grand aunt Monique, who was murdered as a Jew by the Nazis in Auschwitz. I know her only from photos and the anecdotes of my mother. Through her tragic life story, her unique face with the big, jet-black eyes, I still feel connected to her today. 
In this song I imagined meeting her shortly before her gassing in Auschwitz. How I accompanied her to the gas chambers, how we got to know each other a little before the inevitable happened.  
      
Secondly, this song is dedicated to another Monique. Her stage name was "Barbara" and she was a charismatic French chanson singer. What would I have given to be at one of her concerts. But when she had her big time, especially in the 1960s, I was still much too young. So all I have left are their Youtube videos, of which I would like to put a link here: 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPPZMyMNQCM

Her face and her eyes, her charisma and expression remind me so much of my grand aunt.  Like her, she was a Jewish woman of French descent. And with songs like "Göttingen" she contributed significantly to an understanding between the Jews and the land of the perpetrators- Germany.  

Lyrics in English:

Monique

I visited you in Auschwitz, 
Cursed this freezing cold murder place

See you coming with the gas chamber train 
Only one photo at my place with your face

Your deep black eyes look at me
Already as a child they magically fascinated me

I go to you, take you in my arms 
In the coldness of killing we both get warm

We go together, you tell me about you 
Of your life, your joys, your pain

And you listen to me 
Get to know me briefly

The butchers, they wave
The shadows, they sink down

We both still have some time left 
The cruel suffering is already approaching

You show me the brooch in the photo 
You show me how you move your hands to play the piano

The time fold now pulls you away from me
There to the shameful brick building
I can only look after you
You disappear in there 

Gassed and burned
But unforgettably burned into my soul


Deutscher Originaltext:

Monique

Hab` Dich in Auschwitz besucht 
Diesen eiskalten Mord-Ort verflucht

Seh` Dich da kommen, mit dem Gaskammer-Zug 
Nur ein Foto bei mir mit Deinem Gesicht

Deine tiefschwarzen Augen schaun` mich an
Schon als Kind zogen sie mich magisch in den Bann

Ich geh` zu Dir hin, nehm` Dich in den Arm 
In der Kälte des Mordens wird uns beiden warm

Wir gehen zusammen, Du erzählst mir von Dir 
Von Deinem Leben, Deinen Freuden, Deinem Schmerz

Und Du hörst mir zu. Lernst mich kurz kennen

Die Schlächter, sie winken
Die Schatten, sie senken sich ab

Noch haben wir beide etwas Zeit 
Heran rückt schon das grausame Leid

Du zeigst mir die Brosche, die auf dem Foto trägst 
Du zeigst mir wie Du Deine Hände zum Klavierspiel bewegst

Die Zeitfalte zieht Dich nun fort von mir
Dorthin zu dem Schand-Backsteinbau
Ich kann Dir nur nachsehen
Du verschwindest dort drin 

Vergast und verbrannt
Doch unvergeßlich in meine Seele eingebrannt

Monique

LYRICS:

I want to break your suppression
I want to steal your condition
I want to take your inhibitions
Girl I want to be your fantasy

Pinned against the wall
I want to make you scream
I want to make you shake
I want to see you twist and writhe

Here's your surprise
Can't tell whose in control
Yeah!

You want to be my perfection
You want to be my redemption
I will return all you've given
Girl I want to turn you inside out

Face to the floor
I want to break some skin
I want to reel you in
I want to see you twist and writhe

What a surprise
Can't tell whose in control
Yeah!

Though your hands are tied
You've never been more free
A rush of ecstasy
I want to see you twist and...
You keep wanting more
And I want it too
I want to feel alive
I want to see you twist and writhe
