SEND ME - Vocal version

Only three years late, party long finished. I came across this on my old hard drive and thought it right to post it now. One of many I intended to finish but have left the chisel marks visible

Original here https://soundcloud.com/learningtoplay/out-there-somewhere and much more to enjoy 

Fantastic experimental guitar noises and sounds form the backcloth. Beats from lincolnproduction. Vocals and additional guitars by me.

Out There Somewhere - Learningtoplay With Nicholas Ridiculous

The Fountainmaid

Dreams of the dazed
The dead speaks while life begets
False in the rapture
The fairy wails
In your eyes against demise
Fire on the fountain

Stolen by, ruled by desire
All my love, torn pieces of myself

Your sweet lipper taste
Roll it back & sleep the pain
Excommunication.
Disenchanted,
Disavowed by the wrong,
Fortress of my own

Glorified, born in the fires of sorrow
All the laughs, feed, crawl in denial
Spread and fly, forever now

Fear, not the light of dawn
Touch my shadow, and dusk shall follow
Face me, now I'm alive
Not tomorrow, my time is borrowed
For all my sorrow, I will follow

The Fountainmaid (demo)

Spring Is Coming (Roy Roy And J.J. Terrell)

Onmyoji were real Japanese shamans in the Heian period. In modern terms, they had the social status of national civil servants, were made up of about 70 people, and played an important role in running the country. Their office was located closest to the Emperor's residence.

The main job of the Onmyoji was astronomical observation and creating calendars. These calendars contained recommendations and precautions for daily actions based on astronomical observation and divination techniques handed down from ancient China.
For example, the best day to cut your fingernails is the Day of the Ox, and for toenails, the Day of the Tiger.
Good times and directions to go out. Conversely, times and directions to avoid.
Days when you should avoid going out at all.
Days when digging or moving soil will bring misfortune.
The worst direction for getting a pet that year, and more were detailed.
When the aristocrats of the Heian period woke up, they would first look at the calendar for the day and take action based on these guidelines.

Interestingly, some of this information created by the onmyoji continues to be published in modern special calendars (Koyomi) that are updated every year and are available for anyone to purchase at bookstores.

While many Japanese people are no longer interested in these special calendars, I use parts of them as a reference for my daily activities.

The most famous onmyoji is Abe no Seimei, a real historical figure who appears in Japanese movies and dramas. In modern terms, he seems to have had supernatural abilities such as psychic powers and magic. In particular, he had seven gods (Shichigami) help him with his work. These gods were so creepy that Seimei's wife banned them from entering his mansion, and the seven gods waited under Ichijo Modoribashi Bridge. This bridge still exists in Kyoto, and commemorative portraits of the seven gods are placed there.

There is also an anecdote that Abe no Seimei sometimes had the seven gods help him with cleaning.

Blueprint for track that became 'Sandycove Milk'.

Inspired by wondrous music by Conin, whose track 'Kitty's Wake' reminded of the rich clay of Joyce's 'Finnegan's Wake'. This track, about the opening pages of Joyce's Ulysses, borrows coffee spoons, forever those of T.S. Eliot, in an effort to add sweet milk...drawn from the milk-well of honeyed Sandycove.  The lyric speaker is, notionally, Stephen Daedalus. For practical purposes, the lyric speaker is James Joyce himself. His aim? To hit Haines for a guinea [a pre-decimal unit of currency] before heading to France on a ferry. Whilst Haines still feels guilty (sheepish) about having fired his pistol at an imaginary cat he thought he saw in the fireplace in the Martello tower in Sandycove (now the Joyce Museum....a sacred...magical place, whose attendant Joyce scholars told me about the Haines' imaginary cat episode....it is all true...yet also dovetails eerily with the first chapter of Ulysses).

The reference to Haines having consumed Absinthe is a narrative fiction, invented to offer an explanation for his dangerous behaviour. No peer reviewed evidence capable of demonstrating Absinthe has hallucinogenic properties, exists, to my knowledge.


Lyrics

[chorus]
Gotta learn me some Italian
Gonna get me a guitar
Gotta learn me some Italian
Gonna get me a guitar

Hellenise me now
She come and go
talking bout Michelangelo
there will be time
there will be time

do I dare to eat a quiche?
I shall wear enchanted trousers
and float upon the beach

I’m still dreamin
something happened last night

Haines downed a snot-green bottle of Absinthe
started shooting at his Schrödinger's cat
in the fireplace
looks real sheepish this morning
gonna hit him for a guinea [a pre-decimal unit of currency]
and get outta here
gliding on the Emerald sea
to Paris
with Haines’ guinea in my pocket
when I’m at sea

gonna go uptown now
hitting the top deck of this here Martello
gonna watch the mailboat
glide on an Emerald sea
gonna rest my shiny elbows
on the jagged granite
just leavin the harbour

and here comes stately Buck
bearing a bowl of lather
crossed razor and mirror as well
holding the bowl aloft
and intoning...intonin

Introibo ad altare Dei
sacred chalice
sacred cross
and now I’m lookin at the sea
Thallata...sweet mother
Hellenise me
mailboat clearin the harbour
rage of Caliban inside me
cos of Haines....[firing a gun inside the Martello tower when drunk the night before, at a giant cat he imagined was sitting near the fireplace]
sweet Thallata
buttercups on the quilt
powdered musk and gauds of amber beads
calm now like the sea
there will be time
there will be time

Martello
