This is a remix of my first vocal offering which I originally released over 10 years ago. Some of the original (free) VST's have faded from existence so I worked with a few of my current favourites and one new one. By now I had switched to a Strat guitar and this is undoubtedly one of my better, more fluid leads. At the time, I was also experimenting with keyboards and was really just getting comfortable using two hands (rather than 2 fingers). Also at this time, I was getting comfortable using Cuckos Reaper. As for lyrics, they just came from the mood of the tune. Everything is drawn from life experiences, so a "cut and paste" of some old, but not forgotten, memories. I'm not sure why I chose the 3rd person to express these images. 

Broken Dreams
---------------------

[INTRO/SOLO]

You wake up from a nightmare ...
Or was that real?
Somehow you can't get out of bed
Fingers too numb to feel.

Sun coming through the window
But there's no heat.
Now, the silence is deafening
Not a sound from the street.

[SOLO]

Sweet smells from the pillow
As you turn in bed.
Memories of warm embraces
Filter through your head.

No matter now, the bed is cold.
The covers are all grey.
The memories still linger
Of a love that did not stay.

[OUTRO/SOLO]

The melody of that day was shining, blue and wild.
It's a story from the distant past.

Lyrics:

In that silver-blue light
Dazzlingly, oh so dazzlingly, I recall
Wildly shining as I tilt my glass

That strangely nostalgic scent
I want to return to that nostalgic place
Talking about the past that cannot be regained

That melody shining in blue and white
I stood beyond your smiling face
Unable to see anything ahead
I didn't understand!

That dazzling brightness of the unseen events
In that shining blue city
Wildly shining, wildly brilliant

Oh, blue-silver world
The migratory birds are dazzling
Feelings that I ponder aimlessly
Wild blue

Wild Blue

Vedran - It Won’t Be Lightning in the Nettles

"For My Lady" is a song written by Ray Thomas that was released on the Moody Blues 1972 album Seventh Sojourn. It was also released as the B-side to the single "I'm Just a Singer (In a Rock and Roll Band)"
The lyrics to "For My Lady" are about the singer's desire for true love.The lyrics may have been inspired by Thomas' recent divorce at the time he wrote the song.

Music journalist Geoffrey Freakes described "For My Lady" as an "uncomplicated, uncluttered and blissfully romantic song" that is "supremely elegant." Moody Blues biographer Marc Cushman felt that "the melody and heartfelt vocal performance convey a sadness despite the positive nature of the lyrics. Tampa Tribune critic Ralph Harold described the song as "an elegant love song, almost Elizabethan, although somewhat gimmicky with a cymbal sound of ocean waves and a nautical harmonica and organ background.

At one point Justin Hayward plays a guitar note that had some listeners thinking that the guitar string broke. But according to Hayward that it was not a broken string but merely an emphasized pluck to accompany the lyrics "and slowly bow her head."                          Wikipedia

Dreams of Blossom Trees (remastered 2025)

I am a sickly thing burning out for the entertainment of dozens.
Eons ago the gods locked me up in here as punishment for my divine transgressions. 
I've been live recording, digitally producing, & blending both mediums for a long time. 
Thank you for stopping by.
Be safe on your trip.
