V1
IT'S ANOTHER ECLIPSE OF THE CITY
SOUNDS LIKE YOU'VE BEEN AWAY
S S SAILING AWAY
WHEN I FLOTE INTO YOUR EYE'S
LOOK'S LIKE YOUR FAR AWAY
THERE TO STAY
(CHORUS)
IT'S ALRIGHT, YOU'LL BE FINE
GET OFF THE GROUND, TO TAKE MY HAND
AND FALL AGAIN, TO FALL AGAIN
WE CAN HIDE AND TRY TO DEFINE
SUCH IS LIFE
V2
WE ALL LIVE IN THE CRIME OF THE FUTURE
FEELS LIKE THE END OF TIME
REALING AWAY
NOW YOU'VE SLID INTO THIS STYLE
IT'S NOT THAT YOU HAD TO STAY
I'M HERE TO SAY
(CHORUS)
IT'S ALRIGHT, YOU'LL BE FINE
GET OFF THE GROUND, TO TAKE MY HAND
AND FALL AGAIN, TO FALL AGAIN
WE CAN HIDE AND TRY TO DEFINE
SUCH IS LIFE
(BREAK)
(CHORUS)
END

SUCH IS LIFE

Lyrics:
Revenge is for dreams, never reality
Humming from the window, or is that just me?
Here and existing
Existence, the dream of a god wracked with ennui

Refuse to be comforted
with conscription or mosque or desired holocaust
Kangaroos lack individuality
not me

With the grief I've gathered up in my arms
See the face of Laocöon and his two sons come to harm
Crushed by the snake for threatening to interfere
Sometimes the rivers shake 
Sometimes the skies are clear

Sometimes the fire burns, dry and plain
Sometimes the wood is cool and wet with rain
Suffer the heat like a cat on the three hottest days
of midsummer,
go back to the river
Though there may be a maze along the way

Curse and throw spit into the fire
Cast out the bad souls left in me
Apparitions are just cedar trees in the dark
Though the thought refuses to expire
Though I take this expensive piece of language with me

With everything to have and everything to give
Evidence for the coming universal wish not to live
The Hand reaches down to cradle and caress
The peace of mind of duress and unrest

The scent of a sweet song is on the midsummer air
The false and unjust with talons that tear
But the snare of the struggle 
       of the dream is ennui
Is the humming from the window?
        or is that just me?
                   July 26, 2024

Kangaroo Kourt

This piece started again, as often is the case, with me experimenting on the organ. My daughter was intrigued with it when she heard me playing with it, and said it has film noir vibes, which influenced the rest of the composition as it gave me a target, a clear vision of where it was going.

Another version will come, hopefully soon, as a collaboration with some of my friends whom you may already be familiar with from other songs on my channel, which will replace some of the virtual instruments you will hear in this demo version with real instruments, namely, drums and bass, and probably add some additional surprises.

Releasing this version was not in my plans, but after hearing from three separate people that this version should not change, it is done, I have decided to release this one separately from the coming collaboration, so you can hear it exactly as I originally imagined it. Of course, I fully expect the collaboration will be better still, as it always is when bringing multiple talents together, instead of just me in an echo chamber.

I hope you will enjoy listening, and thanks as always.

A Study In Neon

When you have found every key and unlocked every secret—When you have embraced your darkness and allowed your light to shine, protected and pure—Then, and only then, can you become one with the universe. And when that union occurs, you will be met by rain. Not ordinary rain, but droplets of cosmic blessing—A sacred downpour from the heart of existence itself.

Raindrops

This is a new recording of an old song I wrote for my son when he was a kid.  He just got married earlier this year.   Time really flies.

Thanks for stopping by and hope you enjoy the song.

[LYRICS]
Make yourself a dream 
Sketch a vision to lead you through   
Set the goals in life and cast away the blues
Make yourself a dream though things aren't always what they seem 
Sometimes you'll find your whimsical moments in your dreams

Feel the magic in the songs 
Rhythm of life singing along  
Lovely things surrounding you 
Dreams are coming true
Bathe in the breeze of the morning sun
Fulfill wishes one by one
Keep your feet firm on the ground 
Things will come around for you

Life is like a dream 
Full of wonders and surprises 
Needless to ask why 
All in the mirror of your eyes

Lines of hills clear in the morning sky 
Scent of flowers colored butterflies 
Rewarding opportunities are all there to welcome you

Reach out for the twinkling stars 
Stretch and they aren't very far 
Keep your feet firm on the ground 
Things will turn around

Feel the magic in the songs 
Rhythm of life singing along  
Keep your feet firm on the ground 
Things will turn around for you

Make Yourself a Dream

The Shangri-La Mushroom Dance

Back to the present 😊... This is a quicky born from some serious emotion re connecting to my first band. The power of nostalgia is something else. The power of nostalgia wrapped in music for me is one of the most giant forces in the universe. We gotta use it to teach in my pea head opinion. How music helps us wire our brains is just different to everything else and I strongly believe the only reason it's not in schools yet more deeply is because we just haven't done that yet... Let's make it so! It literally can be a time machine for knowledge if we design it to be that!

Pure Path

Good master moments
Memories
Nostalgia
Reborn energy
Past power psychalgia
Lessons of love
Forever teams
Bands of humans
Fill our dreams

We've hibernated to screen
Turn around to scream
Oh fine door bells
Connect this scene
Those random visits
Outside of insular
Soothe simple figdets
Bond presence sprinkler

Stoned on door step
Crying for Kurt
Slagging each other
Seeding that worth
Memorable memes
Lost to computer
Ok, changed are those dreams
But they still needing suture

Here's to love
Here's to light
Here's to pure path
Let's forget the fight

Pure Path

Hey, it's been a while!  
Glad you're visiting. 

Make Friends with the End

 You know how it feels
When things are getting dire
And you reel, try to run
Just as things are catching fire
And you feel time compress
As your vision starts to tunnel
Swallow hard, catch your breath
Put your hands out just a little
And make friends with the end

You know how it feels
When the sky is growing darker
On your own, look around
As your vision starts to falter
Try to see, feel the ground 
And as midnight is approaching
You give in, let it win
And embrace medianoche
You make friends with the end
You make friends

You know what it's like
When things are getting stranger
And you're sure that it's real
And you know that you're in danger
Makes you shudder just a little
Must be your imagination
Hear a whisper like a riddle
Ride a ghost hallucination 
Ride a ghost hallucination
Ride a ghost

You know how it feels 
When the tide is rising higher
And you paddle, try to float
Then swim out a little further
As the current starts to pull 
And you slow down your resistance
Swallow hard, take a breath
You’ll be in it for the distance
You'll make friends with the end
Make friends with the end

Make Friends with the End

1
My love hasn’t always been,
My love hasn’t always been here.

Since that hasn’t always been that way,
For, it wasn’t always alike 
While it hasn’t ever been that  case,
‘Cos it wasn’t always like this…

Does it mean that it has to stay
Forever more that way ?

2
My words that will always be with…
My voice that will always be with…
My trust that will always be,
Always be in…
My thoughts that will always be,
My good thought that will always be with…
My faith that will always be with…
My good faith that will always be with…

Since that hasn’t always been that way,
For, it wasn’t always alike, 
While it hasn’t ever been that case,
‘Cos it wasn’t always like this…

Doesn’t mean it has to stay
Forever more and a day.

3
My heart it is always filled with…
My heart that is always driven,
My heart it is always led with…
…
My hope that will always be with …
My belief that will always be with…
My tears that will always be with…
…

Since that hasn’t always been that way,
For, it wasn’t always alike,
While it hasn’t ever, it has ne…-,
‘Cos it hasn’t  been the ca-haha-haze,

Doesn’t mean that it has to stay
Forever more and a day.
Ooh, I’m not sure what else to si-hing
„I’m not sure what else to say…“

								1st vox
And if this is the last song I ever sing
If these were the last words ever to be sung
I’d sing  my love will always be,
My-high lo-hove will always be.

								2nd vox
(My heart it is always filled with…
My heart it is always led with…
My heart that is always driven.

My love, will always be…
My love it will always be with…
My love it will always be with…
My love that will always be with…)

Cast of Characters: 

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Warwick fretless four-string bass, Paul Reed Smith semi hollow body electric Guitar 
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken -- drums
J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell – organ and triangle
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen — production, mix, and mastering

This song, in case you're not familiar, was written by Medeski, Martin, and Wood with guitarist John Scofield, and performed by them on an album eponymously named A Go Go. Josh has always been a huge fan of both MMW and J.S., and has always wanted to play more of their music, as he used to cover a couple of their songs in one of his main old bands. 
  Josh laid down the bass and after going back an forth a couple of times with Ken and his thrilling drums, they established the rhythm section. Soon after, Josh added his jazzy guitar, as well. We needed someone to play John Medeski's part, too, of course. So, we asked JJ if he'd do the honors, which he did in grand fashion. He also added some triangle hits you can listen for, that add a little bit more pizzaz to the whole thing. 
  Once it was all laid down, we needed a good mix, and no one is gooder than Stephen, so we asked him to mix it for us, which he did in his always pro manner. 
  This was a lot of fun to record, and we hope that comes through. This is a stripped down Eclectic Collective collab, where most of what we're all doing is improv. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it.

My first live piano performance Schweeeeeet (I've since added harp and acoustic guitar but the live piano/vox performance remained the foundation)

Human time rules❤️‍🔥

The law of attraction. I can't remember what author championed it. But it's very true in a sense I think. We project and absorb either positivity or negativity. The world and average mind set is showing us negativity on steroids at the moments and as far as I can see people are re-projecting that negativity when they are not conscious about absorbing and re-projecting it.

That's why I feel so strongly in positivity especially now. We can actually get that positive wild fire we need from people to spread empathy instead of apathy. We don't all need to understand that, we just need enough of us to be tuned to ourselves enough to not reproject the negative energy we see in front of us even if we are the target.

As my Mum says to be all the time...

Don't reflect it back Carl... 

Greatest spreaders of love ever known to existence. My Mum and Dad. Lyrically here I actually refer to the Sun as Mum and Dad. This is completely true in an evolutionary sense. It is our true God and lit us our path 4.5 billion years ago. It's real and it's the truth as most sane minds accept so maybe let's not get hung up on the well spoken clowns that have tried to brain wash us since. Our kids deserve proof, not confusion ❤️‍🔥

This is the New

This is the end
The end
Come the new
Goodbye pretend
Mindset meets knew
Knowledge of old
Becomes feathered told
Neurons of gold
Expansion soul bold

White noise wiped out
Lie addiction not doctrine
Awakening clout
Affliction not toxin
Pain felt knows feel
Eyes meet the real
Tears of the sun
Reflection of Mum

Evened mouths shout
Together pined whine
Our pride becomes solar
Just water grape vine
Evolution gets bolder
More young as older
Bright sky lit rad
Thanks daily good Dad

Sonnet extend our bright lights of truths
Kids smile their happiness
Living our proofs
Mending them
Making them truer for all
Changing their tunes
Good want for next call

Composer of sum
Direction for anger
Pure bliss is on
Rise spirited hanger
Gone heaven and hell
Old mindset once fear
We live for today
Tomorrow made clear

Perfection like Wasp or Leaf or mighty Shrew
Sit 'side existence
This is the new
This is the end
The end
Come the new
Goodbye pretend
Mindset meets knew
