This song began with Steve, who wrote it on his guitar and sang it, before sharing it with Eclectic Collective about half a year ago, back in the fall. Always grateful to Steve for sharing his amazing music with us, we kept it alive even though it had stalled out on us for whatever reason. 
  We had a decent skeleton from our original go at it, but decided to scrap it, and start fresh. Ken, being the one who actually revived it, added his solid drums first, providing for a groovy foundation. Tez came next, surprisingly, adding his hooky guitar fills throughout. Mark hopped on shortly after, adding the organ you hear coming in around the 2:00 mark. Josh took his turn after that, even though it was only a couple of days between, by adding his fretless bass to complete the rhythm section. He also, in the same recording session, added the electric piano you hear throughout, as well as the organ in the first half. 
  Once it was in the can, we asked Stephen to mix it for us, in his always professional manner. 
  We all love working on Steve's songs, and admire him as a musician, singer, and songwriter. This makes almost a half dozen songs on which the EC has collaborated with Steve, and we're sure to add many more. We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Original lyrics by Steve's Planet

Please Come Home (Eclectic Collective with Steve's Planet)

A mix of gritty growling rock. Turn up the volume 

Scorned inferno

The Way You Look Tonight" is a song from the film Swing Time that was performed by Fred Astaire and composed by Jerome Kern with lyrics written by Dorothy Fields. It won the Academy Award for Best Original Song in 1936.

The Way You Look Tonight (Swing Time - Jerome Kern / Dorothy Fields - Kiki, Stu and Rob Jam)

Way overdue for something new but I've been living in exile without the usual, albeit modest, setup I'm used to. So this might be pretty rough. And it's full of the usual horror at political realities and way full of schmaltzy velveeta. 

Guitarist note:  I don't have amps at present and was struggling to find a decent direct sound. There is a *free* VST plugin by Neural Amp DSP and online libraries of tone prints, also free, that came to the rescue. Highly recommended.

it's alright for you as long as it's alright
you don't mind what they do in the broad daylight

it never could be you

but you don't see the way you're blinded
they'll never drag you down to the places meant for those

do you feel the color of your soul
when you live with love suspended hiding in a hole
the moment is yours but you don't believe 
you won't believe what lies there ripening 
growing in your mind without you knowing

now it could be you

and as you feel the weight of the binding
you know they're dragging you down to the places meant for those

to liberate the light of every heart and mind
you can say it never paying any price

there's a little part of everyone that knows 
we're only playing separate lives 
till true faith arrives

if there's every gonna be a change 
let it start right here

you know it could be you

It Could Be You

My Story

now you see me

This song has the theme of darkness and light, and at the end it develops to the point where the light of hope shines down forever. May the Infinite light, the light of hope, gently and beautifully illuminate everything.

The lyrics are as follows:
幾多の壁を超えて
癒えない夜を超えて

翼を　　
いまあの空へとはばたけ

光のように強く　研ぎ澄まされた
愛は心は　この翼に響く

あぁ 時のように風に乗せて
さぁ この光を届けよう　いつまでも

嵐の闇が来ても
（輝け　いま）
漆黒の闇が来ても
（輝け　いま　はばたけ）
わたしは新しい空へ翔ける

光のように強く　研ぎ澄まされた
愛は心は　この翼に響く
あぁ 時のように　風に乗せて
さぁ この光を届けよう　どこまでも

永遠の光が強く輝く
全てを照らして美しい画を描く

この暗闇を　寂しさを
忘れたいから　光る流線になる

誰より強く　研ぎ澄まされた
あぁ　私はこの翼を信じる

羽ばたけ　どこまでも
輝け　いつまでも


I hope this song reaches someone's heart. 
Thank you so much for listening.

This is an original track.
I recorded the guitar, bass, piano and drums myself.Some elements like certain string parts, ambient sounds, and subtle adjustments were programmed using MIDI — although some of the string sounds were also played and recorded using an electric piano.
This track features vocals by Koharu Rikka (小春六花) using Synthesizer V.

The Infinite Light

Stephen TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman did a really nice remix on this song so I thought I'd share this version.

Hope That You’re Happy Remix (Eclectic Collective with Joe Stroffolino)

My mum always played the piano in her slippers, her mother did not want her to damaged the instrument.  She even took her slippers to the Guildhall School of Music and Drama exam, she thought everyone played the piano in slippers. So I recorded a favourite track of hers, in one take, which I was very happy with, though I did shed a tear as I put my slippers on.

The music for "Blueberry Hill" was composed by Vincent Rose with lyrics written by Larry Stock and Al Lewis. The song was turned down by another publisher until being bought and published in 1940 by Chappell & Company. The song was recorded over ten times that year.
