cool beat, love the creative composition and arrangement with the different parts !!

listened to this track again, a month later! Sounds awesome! =)

oh...such a great story and music! A perfect wonderful song!..and of course it matter!

On first listen Iggy Pop's Lust for Life doesn't sound particularly original. The drumbeat a lift of You Can't Hurry Love and the layers of additional percussion suggest the Stones' Sympathy for the Devil.

So what's the secret of this rock classic? In short, Iggy Pop's lyrics and performance. There's something joyously lunatic about the ecstatic delivery that propels the song along at super high speed.

I hope my cover captures the spirit of the original & if not, listen to the original - link below.

Written by Iggy Pop & David Bowie.

Per aspera ad astra

The world is under siege ...again. Olympics under way in the midst of a pandemic? Does it matter? Of course it does. However, when so much seems to be amiss for so many, for so long, maybe, it Doesn't Matter? An ode to a dystopian moment in human history.

                                          It Doesn’t Matter (available for free D/L at www.terrywigmore.com in the collection called Doesn't Matter)

Lyrics:
    It doesn’t matter how it works, just as long as it does
    It doesn’t matter what you think, just as long as you thought
    It doesn’t matter how you look, as long as you can see
    It doesn’t matter what’s in your mind, as long as it’s…free
    Look out…here we go…everybody got to know
    Everybody get together now
    One two a one two three…everybody look at me
    Everybody get together now
    Look out…here we go…everybody got to know!
    It doesn’t matter…yada yah yah…yada yah yah…yada yah yah yah
    Yada yah yah…yada yah yah…yada yah yah yah
    It doesn’t matter that you’re thinking, that you can or you can’t
    But it matters to your brother, that you’re probably right
    It doesn’t matter, coming second, the first or the last
    It doesn’t matter how a fool’s made, only when he smiles
    (INST)
    It doesn’t matter who you are, just as long as you were
    It doesn’t matter how badly you failed, just as long as you tried
    It doesn’t matter what you do, just as long as you do
    It doesn’t matter…it doesn’t matter…it doesn’t matter!

I COULD HELP IF YOU WANTED

I could help if you wanted

Don't let me fall into your eyes
Don't let me call your name
Don't let me fall
I don't want to go there
You do it if you want to
I don't feel like going out
I could help if you wanted
[Wash your face]
I guess it's over now...

I could glow if you lit me
And you could melt into my eyes
I'd cup my hands when you were close to me
And I would let you fall
Steady like Sundays and pigeons
And we'll fill the bottles with wishes

Electric Blanket Lucy and The Butter Lad
Electric Blanket Lucy and The Butter Lad

Don't let me fall into your eyes
[Putting wishes in bottles that's all we do]
Don't let me call your name
[Listen really hard]
Don't let me fall
I don't want to go there
[Putting wishes in bottles that's all we do]
You do it if you want to
[Listen really hard]
I don't feel like going out
[Putting wishes in bottles that's all we do]
I could help if you wanted
[Wash your face]
I guess it's over now...

I could help if you wanted
I could help if you wanted

Ask The Question

Long before September 11, 2001, there was a September 11, 1950; the birthdate of my wife Terry.  This song started out as a very personal musical portrait of her.  Debra became interested in the track after I sent it to her for collaborative consideration.  The result is something very special for the both of us and we hope you too.  In my playing, I address the intimate side of the song and day. In Debra's playing, she addresses the now much larger meaning of the day for our nation and the world. Ultimately I think what we are saying is that 9/11 is profoundly personal. Each of us, if were old enough to remember, know where we were, what we were doing the day the attacks occurred. The attacks also shook the world, world markets, world travel, and any and all sense of security.   Profound sorrow was draped over our country and any nation that called us friend.  "Stay With Me" is another way of saying "hold me close", "we need each other", and as the track picture suggests "forget me not".    A big "thank you" to Debra for lavishing her talent on this very personal song.    More of her beautiful music can be heard @debra_buesking.

Connecting, creating and sharing with others has been quite a transformative experience and one that I trust will continue for years to come. I enjoy listening to musicians on SC, and try to leave encouraging and descriptive comments.
Who said retirement can't be fun!
