Speedy blues

Happy Christmas 

Santa’s boots are caked in snow
He’s been dancin’ in Glasgow
Through the ceilidh
Round and round
Jiggin’ jolly
Stompin’ ground


Och aye
The man’s got style
A red suit and a cheeky smile


Santa comes but once a year
Sings a tune and drinks our beer
Spills his cocoa
Shouts “Och dear!”
Happiness everywhere


His sleigh’s parked on Arthur’s Seat
Reindeer munchin’ shortbread sweet
Elves are fiddlin’ near the fire
Socks with whisky
What a choir


Ho ho
Mistletoe
Santa’s got a kilt to show
Bagpipes wailin’ through the night
Rudolph’s nose is burnin’ bright


Santa comes but once a year
Sings a tune and drinks our beer
Spills his cocoa
Shouts “Och dear!”
Happiness everywhere

Och dear .mp3

MERRY GO ROUND 25 (Lyrics & notes)

my soul likes to roam an adventure calls new people to meet new places to discover

Wheels Keep Turning

Just finished this afternoon. Looks can be deceptive. Never judge someone without knowing them !

Beneath the tartan sky so grey 
A heart can sing A heart can stray 
You see my face But nae my soul 
Do ye ken the part that makes me whole  

Don’t judge a book by its cover My dear
 The truth’s in the pages The love’s in the tears 
A glance won’t tell you The depth of the sea 
Look closer Love And you’ll truly see me  

The heather blooms on hills of green
 But thorns lie hidden Sharp Unseen 
A voice can charm A smile can glow 
But the story’s more than what it shows  

Turn the pages Take your time 
Feel the rhythm Hear the rhyme  

Don’t judge a book by its cover My dear 
The truth’s in the pages The love’s in the tears 
A glance won’t tell you The depth of the sea 
Look closer Love And you’ll truly see me  


Like a kilted breeze that whispers low 
There’s more to me than I let show 
Unravel the threads Weave the truth anew 
And find a heart that beats for you

Don’t judge a book by its cover .mp3

Carl came up with this song at the beginning of November on his acoustic guitar, and shared it with the rest of us shortly after. Carl is a songwriting supernova, in case you're unfamiliar with our newest addition to the team. We're always excited and grateful to get to work on his music. 
  Mark was first to add his parts, although he tweaked them throughout the process. His work can be heard in the dramatic string arrangement and mellotron at the crescendo. Josh was next to jump in, adding his new upright bass to the song. He played not only the plucked part, but the bowed part in the strings section, too. Ken came along next with his perfect drums to complete the rhythm section. JJ wanted in on this, too, so he added the foundational piano you hear throughout. Last, but not least, Stephen dropped in his electrifying guitar solo and the accompanying textural chords using is Danelectro baritone guitar, followed at the very end by his magical e-bow part. 
  Once it was all in the bag, we asked Tez to produce and mix it for us, which he did in his always expert fashion. 
  This is our latest song of which Carl is the author. He's been making music with us for the past half a year now, and we can't get enough of his abundant creativity. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.
  Also, Carl had this to say about his lyrics, "Labels and putting each other in a particular box is causing big problems on the planet. The song's meaning is born from trying to take labels out of our lessons. In a polarized world, the song pines how we will likely learn lessons properly if we leave ego out of what we are trying to learn. Maybe our art has more relevance for future generations if we do that instead of bolting it to the current people or ideas causing us problems."
Original lyrics by The Beautiful Dark:

Let's play cards
You lying runt
Word poker perfect
A joker to hunt
Motor makeup mouth
Dadless brain itched
Orange sith can shout
Cycle of old child bewitched

Leave out the names
Remove their power
Lessons find refrain
Fake turned to flower

All liars die
'As honest tongue
Dinnseanchas signs our true right and wrong
Transmutation
Time understood
Truth trump card for hate
More blossomed love

Leave out the names
Teach tomorrow's hour
Lessons find refrain
Pure honest power

Lies from power
Carry hidden agenda
Justice can save us from these malady members
Unless they break our sacred norms
They've changed the game with iron fisted porn

Leave out the names
Control our stream
Lessons mute ego
Brutes turn to dream

The system protects us from crazy one
One system collective
Agreement by sum
Normals described
Standards of power
Transmutation of evil
Never named gives real flower

Let's label our love
Let's teach that today
Let lessons of dove
Show us our way

Leave out the names
Remove their power
Lessons find refrain
Fake turned to flower

Leave out the names
Teach tomorrow hour
Lessons find refrain
Pure honest power

Leave out the Names (Eclectic Collective)

[Lyrics] 
I Found  My Way Back Home

 [Verse 1] 
When I was a young man, dreams were all I knew, 
Chasing cityscapes and neon lights, with skylines in view. 
But the noise soon swallowed me up, pulled me into the mad rush 
Now I find my peace in sun-kissed fields, where there's a quiet hush. 

Time has changed my heart, found what truly shines, 
In the quiet, I hear the whispers of the pines. 

[Chorus] 
Give me the country roads, where the wildflowers grow, 
Where the stars paint the night, and the warm breezes blow. 
No more the city’s pulse, replaced by birds’ singing melodies so sweet, 
In the heart of the country, I’ve found my home, a quiet retreat. 

[Verse2] 
The skyline’s lost its magic, it’s all just shades of grey, 
While the rivers sparkle and call me back each day. 
Those heartless streets feel empty when I pass them by, 
So I'm trading the rush for stillness, under this big blue sky. 

People stop to greet you, how they listen and they care, 
In the arms of nature and beauty beyond compare. 

[Chorus] 
Give me the country roads, where the wildflowers grow, 
Where the stars paint the night, and the warm breezes blow. 
No more the city’s pulse, just the birds’ singing melodies so sweet, 
In the heart of the country, I’ve found my home, a quiet retreat. 

[Outro] 
So here I’ll rest my soul, no longer to roam, 
In nature's arms, near friends and family, 
I've found my way back home.


I Found My Way Back Home

Im open to all sorts of music and appreciate the work folk have done. If you don’t like my music ! Move on. Don’t belittle yourself by leaving nasty comments. Im not influenced by idiotic behaviour or narcissistic twats 🥸
