It's so sad  that we can not have gigs.  Musicians all around the world still have hard times due to pandemic.
I composed this song for my band, but the next gig is cancelled because COVID-19 infection is increasing again. So I present this song in one-man band style here .

Watching my brother Bri living out the last few months of his life was probably the most difficult thing I’ve ever had to do.  We had been told that there was no cure for his illness and that, at some point, the inevitable would happen.  But right up until the final few days, he refused to accept this, believing that, somewhere out there, there was some magical remedy he would find to take it all away.  He consulted with so many ‘alternative’ therapists, who all promised their brand of snake oil would deliver him from all that ailed him.  These were always both expensive and totally useless.  

A few weeks before he died, I was sitting by his hospital bed when he actually asked me, “Do You Believe In Magic?”  Knowing what I knew, what possible answer could I give?  Bri already knew the answer too but, all the same, I wished I could have given a convincing and unequivocal ‘yes’.  Difficult though it undoubtedly was, I had to reply that I didn’t but wanting to support him as best I could, told him I believed in him and would always love him 

There is nothing worse than watching someone in their final moments, particularly when they have been such an essential part of your life.  As you get older, facing this scenario becomes unavoidable and though age provides a better understanding of the fact, it never reduces the pain.  Both Gal and I faced similar bedside questions from Bri and this song tries to reflect those onerous, interminable times when one has to be both supportive and honest all at the same time.   

What can you say about Hans that hasn’t already been said?  When I sent him the demo of this song I did wonder if the subject matter may prove difficult.  But his  incredible ability to manifest every emotional nuance in his arrangements is something that always inspires and impresses, as demonstrated so beautifully here.  (Terry Reeves)

Do you believe in magic?
Do you believe in changing world?
Do you believe it's tragic?
Do you believe there's more to be told? 

Casting spells with waving hands
Praying thoughts with pagan strands
Making deals with Devil's soul
Sharing fears for spirit parole
No, no

Do you believe in magic?
Do you believe in immortal thoughts?
Do you believe in metric?
Do you believe in nine times nought? 

Tribal dancing, releasing curse
Tantric thinking, avoid the worse
Watching stars for future needs
Not drinking tea but reading leaves
No, no

Do you believe in magic?
Do you believe in sacrifice? 
Do you believe in panic?
Do you believe in rolling dice?

Chanting mantras one more day
Reiki heat takes pain away
Resurrection not in the plan
Wooden cross protect the man
No, no

Do you believe in magic?
Do you believe in searching prayer?
Do you believe in medics?
Do you believe in going nowhere? 

Holding bible in folded arms
Writing words, performing psalms
Chasing shadows, finding light
Avoid the truth, increase the fight
(Repeat verse)

No, no

Do you believe in magic? (Repeat until end)

Norse Mythology:

As the Greatest Warriors are slain, they step from this life to the next,
Where beyond the farthest horizon to the North lies Asgard.
In the midst of this Heroic abode stands the Great Hall of Valhalla.
As the Warriors enter through the multitude of Grand Gateways into Valhalla
they are heralded to join the Mightiest of their ancestors.

Lyrics
Decent wage it never rang, rings around your head
Wisdom glossed and lustful drops left holding up the bed
Rings and magic for little Rosey
Pockets full of Posies

All fall down
All fall down

Always tried to make the contact
Reflected in the mirrors of days
Dancing graceless in the vein
Shameless in its game
 While the scores for more
And tempted taste texted me in a haze.
More than that a mysterious cat
Came by to stake its claim

All fall down
All fall down

Down to this I knew it would be
sedated in a trance
Nestled soft like mama’s milk and tender 
With a glance
 Side step problems
And their Goblins
To laugh it up at the dance. 
 Measured thought and pillow talk
Makes room for romance.  

Reveler of Days
Reveler of Days 

Decent wage it never rang, rings around your head
Wisdom glossed and lustful drops left holding up the bed
Rings and magic for little Rosey
Pockets full of Posies
Rings and magic for little Rosey
Pockets full of Posies

All fall down
All fall sown

All Fall Down

Douglas Adams challenged the world and asked the question “Why?” in such a witty and perceptive way that it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that it captured my reason to be in a way no writer has before or since. “The Hitch Hikers Guide To The Galaxy” has become an international best seller so it’s therefore a surprise, at least to me, not to see his name mentioned more frequently on regularly published lists of history’s most significant authors.  Whilst it’s no doubt true that I wouldn’t be someone whose opinion you’d seek out as an authority on such things, I do find it hard to believe that a man who created something so hilariously and philosophically original doesn’t get the true recognition he deserves. “Hitch Hiker” was so much more than a work of science fiction.  It was something that taught us the valuable life lesson that there really was no need to have an answer to everything.
Has anyone heard of Douglas? Well, he was certainly the man who let me know I wasn't on my own.

Once again, my grateful thanks to Hans (also a ‘Hitch Hiker’ fan, by the way) for the brilliant arrangement on this song.  But he’s just this guy, you know…
(Terry Reeves)

Has anyone heard of Douglas?
Writing life is for the living words
Has anyone heard of Douglas?
Tried not to kill a mocking bird

Has anyone heard of Douglas? 
Madness now was so profound 
Has anyone heard of Douglas?
He was not far from the madding crowd

Dickens, Lee, Lewis and Christie
Tolkien, Dahl, Fleming, and Rushdie
Kawakami, Smith, Whitehead and Orwell
Shakespeare, Austin, Pepper, and Powell

Does anyone remember Douglas? 
Forty two the reason why?
Does anyone remember Douglas?
Who was once the Catcher in the rye

Can anyone remember Douglas?
He had a gold but broken heart
Can anyone remember Douglas?
An Adam Blithe Spirit from the start

Ishiguro, Kipling, Russel, and Lessing
Fitzgerald, Woolf, Cookson, and Gissing 
Bronte, Thackeray, Richardson and Hardy
Winterson, Walker, Tan and Galsworthy 

Has anyone seen my Douglas? 
Taking as many baths time will allow
Has anyone read my Douglas? 
Climbing 39 steps with his towel 

Has anyone seen my Douglas?
Hitching to a galaxy of his own
Has anyone considered Douglas?
Taking us all To a God Unknown

Trollope, Butler, Smith and Beckett 
Hollinghurst, Gibbons, Golding but DON’T PANIC
Stein, Doyle, Tolstoy, and Adams
Checkhov, Vern, Steel, and the one and only Douglas Noël Adams

I wrote this song during the lockdown, imagining how much more difficult things would have been in days gone by, when earlier generations had so very little means of communication. Travelling minstrels would go from town to town and entertain the local people. In my mind, I pictured townsfolk gathering to listen to a minstrel's song, bringing a message of hope, that their future would be brighter, all joining in to sing in candlelight, illuminating the darkness. I hope this song brings some joy in dark times.
LYRICS:
The people gathered round
To hear the minstrel sing
A song to bring them hope
That winter would turn to spring
The frost was biting deep
And the snow had lain so long
So the people gathered round 
To hear the minstrel’s song

The winds of change are coming
Let them hear you sing
The winds of change will turn
Winter into spring

Times may be hard
But somehow we know
That seasons will come
And seasons will go
So together all as one
With voices so strong
People gathered round
To sing the minstrel’s song 

The winds of change are coming
Let them hear you sing
The winds of change will turn
Winter into spring

Their voices all rang out
Out into the night
The magic of a song
Sung by candle light
Watching the flames
Of the candles burn
Waiting …for 
The winds of change to turn

The winds of change are coming
Let them hear you sing
The winds of change will turn
Winter into spring

The Winds of Change

The Winds Of Change

++++. PROFILE NOTES ++++

Once a wannabe, not yet a has been.

It had been over a decade since I put together a song,
and for that matter basically walked away from music altogether.
Losing hope that I would ever have the time to put into music again,
I finally gave away my 3rd music studio.
I ran across SoundCloud around 2013,
and thought I might take what few songs I had recorded, 
and lay them to rest there.
And there they languished.

HOWEVER, around 2017 I went back to SoundCloud
and began listening a little more and a little more,
and actively taking a part in visiting the sites
of so many wonderful musicians and beautiful songs.
Also, more and more often I would discover that these artists
were blossoming everywhere around the world,
and most definitely worthy of high praise and compliments.

Then suddenly, these old dead soundtracks right here
began to have a bit of life breathed back into them.
From the kind words that began to come trickling in,
I thought, maybe, someday I might give this music thing a try again.

The thing that finally pushed me into action
was a particular SoundCloud artist…Sander Heerings,
AKA https://soundcloud.com/wane-of-summer
 

Not only was he encouraging,
but he began faithfully responding to a few questions,
then a barrage of them.

The final result seemed to be that after a couple of months,
the Old Grinder now has a 4th studio and, finally, a new song.
I hope there may be many more to come.

Thank you Sander, and to the multitude that have dropped in
to listen to these old songs, 
and most of all, for perking up my spirits.
