Fantastically beautiful work, stunning... it's a bit reminiscent of 1960s folk pop, like simon and garfunkel. Love it

this suits you Kegan, I like it, the beauty of the vocals and slight underlay of mad things going on

It's a very, very wonderful song, Kegan-san! I was so moved by the melody of this song! I was so excited while listening to this. And I feel happy!

such an interesting track. A lot going on. I felt that sometimes there were timing issues, but maybe the effect is intended. A powerful work.

Incredible production! Great work!! 👍🏻

Yes! So proud to be aboard this journey 8).

July 2021, written quite quickly, I’d taken a picture of the blue house and wanted to write a song with that title, simple as that!  Listen with headphones.


Blue House
 

I live in a blue house,
Blue like the day,
Blue like the sky 
With the clouds blown away.

You had a red house,
Red like a fight,
Red with the shouting
In the middle of the night.

I live in a blue house now,
With Love in a Mist
And Glory of the Snow,
I live in a blue house now,
Not blue like the Blues,
But blue as the water’s flow.

I live in a blue house,
Where everything’s cool,
There’s no place for trouble
In my Casa Azul

You live in a red house,
Of chaos and strife,
I couldn’t stay there 
That’s not my life.

She's Playing Games (Summer acoustic)

Where Is Peace

Can you remember those stories
That your father used to tell
About those horned devils
Rising up from Hell
In the seven rings of Hades
In the abode of the dead
Can we cross the lake of fire
To where the departed dwell

And we all seek redemption
Though we call it different things
To be borne into our Heaven
Upon an angels wings
Trailing clouds of glory
Are we such foolish things
When the noble savage brings his justice
To the deposed kings

Oh they lie and they lie again
Tell me where is peace
There is no children's lantern left
Shining in the East

and we have no regrets we say
Then how can we atone
For the caravan of sin
And all the evil we have done
We all have gods of some sort
And we pay them in the end
We best pay some attention
To what all these signs portend

Oh they lie etc

Can the wizards spin their spell for you
Bring forth your voodoo doll
Drink your drink and lift your voice
Within Valhalla's halls
We all are hollow humans
Bereft of divine joy
As we drag those empty ideals
Within the gates of Troy








Will there be transubstantiation 
Of nonsense into truth
Can we make up the things we believe in
And not ask for the proof
We all are crazy suckers
When it comes down in the end
We invested our souls in those Ponzi schemes
For some extra dividend

Oh they lie etc

Where Is Peace

I SAW THAT SMILE WHEN YOU GOT OFF THAT TRAIN
WERE THOSE TEARS OF JOY? 
OR DROPS FROM THE RAIN?
COME HERE YOU LITTLE ANGEL
I'LL HOLD BACK YOUR PAIN

ITS BEEN SO LONG
SINCE I HELD YOU IN MY ARMS
AWKWARD, DIFFERENT NOW
TIME’S NEEDLE WILL DARN

IM JUST A CAST AWAY
ON THIS ISLAND IN THE SEA
YOU KNOW I WILL HEAL YOU

STARING FOR A TIME OFF INTO SPACE
GLOWING SHEEN OFF YOUR SLEEPING FACE
YOU POOR THING, YOU’VE BEEN THROUGH A LOT

HILLS THAT ARE GREENER AND TURQOISE SEAS
FLOWERS EVERY NIGHT
BABY CATCH UP ON SOME SLEEP
ILL RUB YOUR BACK WHILE YOU LAY THERE AND DREAM

ITS BEEN SO WRONG
FOR ALL THIS TIME AWAY
FROM ONE ANOTHERS TOUCH
THE WAY YOU SAY MY NAME

IM HERE FOR YOU NOW
BABY I MEAN FOR KEEPS
YOU KNOW I WILL ALWAYS HOLD YOU

YOU ARE THE ONE AND ONLY THING 
MY STARS, MY SUN, MY MOON
MY HEART HOLDS YOUR KEY
LORD GIVE ME STRENGTH AS I GET DOWN ON A KNEE

TRAVELING THROUGH THIS LIFE WITH YOU
UPS AND DOWNS, WOW WE MADE IT THROUGH!
THE KIDS ARE LONG GONE
IT LOOKS LIKE JUST ME AND YOU

WE HAVE ALWAYS PUT EACH ONE FIRST
THATS WHY AS YOU LAY DYING
OH, GOD PLEASE! IT HURTS
JUST A SECOND CHANCE!
OH GOD PLEASE

THE RAVEN FLEW

OOH OHH OHH OHH 

I HOLD NEAR
YOUR VOICE I STILL CAN HEAR
HELPING ME THROUGH TROUBLED TIMES 
SEE YOU SOON GIRL  I STAND IN LINE.

Promise

Good Passover to all of you.

First off, I give a special thanks to Bruce Conover (@conover ((his profile picture is the spitting image of my dad circa mid 1980s. I sent a screenshot to my extended family and they all thought is was Kevin Windle, my dad))) for giving me sage advice concerning the mix. Please check out his page. He has amassed a collection of golden masterworks spanning decades.  

This song has been in the works for a good while. 
Perhaps it was because I asked my prospective collaborators to play or sing whatever they wanted with one caveat... it had to be about the ideal Father. And for me, that would be God, because I know that God is a Father, and that He is the most perfect Father. 

Since there are a great many people that hate the idea of an All-Powerful, All-Knowing, All-present, Unchanging "Sky Daddy," I also know that the idea of singing about one would be a tad too much. Other prospects I'm sure were otherwise too busy with other projects to contribute, and yet others had no idea on how to contribute.

Anyway, I then proposed the song to one Day Body (@day-bodine). And, Day is an all-out genius and a super humble dude. I have known him ever since I've been on this platform. Now, we never had any deep convos about faith and what life really means to each other, but when I proposed this idea he unabashedly tackled the project with sheer grace and a masterful panache that boggles my mind. The lyrics seem to spark the collective consciousness of the ancients. They evoke the timeless history of our Spiritual patriarch, Abraham...

Well, at least that is how I choose to hear the lyrics, and you all free to do with them as you wish. My only desire is that as you listen, please, reflect on the subject matter of a perfectly loving father who spared the life of His perfect Son, so that you may inherit perfection for yourself for all eternity, but only if you truly desire it. 

Shalom, shalom. And Good Passover to you all!

Lyrics:

Many years ago there traveled a man
for a family to a life giving land
He was raw and willing
Made from his heart
valuable tiding that earned us our start
Fast forward today, I thankfully stand
in awe, devoted to good father's plan

Let me follow, aspire to climb
and pass the wisdom to my next in line

Young seed, reach out to your sun
Family legacy strong
Vow to carry on
Until thy will is done
Faithfully your son

Altrove (Another time, another place)

Does anyone still give credit to "the universe" for orchestrating blessings in their lives? I have known many people that will talk about the universe as if it is a living entity that bestows fortune and divine appointments into their lives. The Torah of YHVH Elohim has predicted this behavior for well over five thousand years. And even before the earth was created the Creator YHVH knew how every "wise" person would think.

If you give credit to the universe for the manifestation of fortune and grace in your life, then in a roundabout way you know He is real. So cut to the chase:

"For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things."

Romans 1:20-23
