Perfectly playful collaboration, and a delight to hear.

Lovely rollicking accompaniment on this- good stuff, all...!!!

2 for 2 for me in terms of exploring your stuff! I can tell im gunna enjoy exploring more....

Great sing along with a Lennon like vocal and vibe

Great track. Hope all well. Get in touch.

Awesome song! Perfect touch, all involved, for this joyous riot : )

Phone recording added to by The Happy Somethings 

I uploaded Bitter before but in my opinion this Bitter is better.
I wrote and played it on the 1st January 2023.

I have loved The Happy Somethings since I first heard them when in Azerbaijan about 6 years ago.  We share the philosophy that if we try harder it sounds worse!  I am pleased and honoured that they spontaneously decided to colloborate and be my "ramshackle"  backing band on this song!  a bit like with Buddy Holly's apartment tapes, only I think Buddy's were better before...and Buddy was never bitter.

...and in the words of The Happy Somethings:

"We have been fans of Cobbled Moth's musical output for some considerable time and when we came across this new song called 'Bitter' we just immediately loved it. One evening, bored with ourselves, and without him knowing, we decided to become his backing band... fortunately he embraced our audacity!"

Lyrics:
I remember you sweeter
Now you're lost in the ether 
You were a spirit transmitter
But now you are bitter
And it's a shame
If you think no one cares
You went through pain
I know I was there
But you always had a wise word
And a kind word too
What happened to you?
I remember you taller
And now you are smaller
Over the land you would skitter
But now you're just bitter
Ooo oo now you are bitter
Ooo oo now we are bitter
And it's a shame
If we think no one cares
We went through pain
Yet always stayed fair
And we always had a wise word
And a kind word too
The disillusionment grew and grew and grew
I remember you fatter
And it didn't matter
Long before your ex twitter 
When you were not bitter
I remember you jolly
In the rain with no brolly
I remember you shiny
Your wit was perfectly briny
I remember you noble
Before the dragon went global
You were never a quitter
Hope you stop being bitter

The wrong place at the right time

Recorded on a C. Bernstein grand piano and mixed November 2023 at GAM Studio by producer Armen Bedrossian near Paris, mastered by Coponat Records, ‘Re-Creation’ is a relaxing and emotional solo piano piece. Main theme is inspired by classical melodies and schemes reminded from learning music as a child. Seven variations follow one another, with various developments. Here is the reason of the song title: on one hand creation is inspired from the past, on the other creation can be infinite. And it’s also a childish recreation.

Re-Creation

“Inspired by our daughters new found love of The Beach Boys’ music; requesting “Peach Boys and Rock and Roll”. Here is “PEACHES”. This is the acapella version. The inspiration for this are the reissue and deluxe releases of classic records, which include alternate takes and acapella songs.” 

…peaches and Rock and Roll

Aah, aah, aah peaches 

I don’t know what to eat
When I’m hearing the California beat 
Do I dig strawberries? Is that the one for me? 
Is it time for something more hip and sweet? 

I’m not sure what to take from my bowl
When I listen to Rock and Roll
I’m all about peaches Rock and Roll 

…in this microphone
Bah bah bah bah, alright 
…no

(ACAPELLA) PEACHES w/ OUR DAUGHTER

Today Patrick/DjArtw2001 (@djartw2007) and I present the last-but-one track 13 in our almost completed collaborative album "Galaxy Universe" (2024) - and the concluding track will appear here on SC together with the album as whole this coming weekend.

The track was created on 29 August 2024 (initial composition, recording, arrangements and mix by Alex M in Logic Pro using Akai MPKmini keyboard input) and 3 September 2024 (subsequent composition, further additions and arrangements and final mix by DjArtw2001 in MAGIX) and posted on SoundCloud on 26 September 2024 (by Alex M).

The artwork cover for the track zooms in on a fragment of an oil painting by Patrick/DjArtw2001 of 1 November 2023 that was cropped square from a photo and annotated using Mac OS Preview by Alex M on 20 September 2024 - in coordination and agreement with Patrick/DjArtw2001.

Duration: 7:59 minutes

Lyrics:

Billie Eilish Won't Follow Me

Finneas and his sister won't follow me I guess I don't
Care much but just the same
Would it be too much to hope that they'd think this song is dope
Or even just OK?

Judge me for a thousand things
But not for liking these siblings
A pleasure, but not guilty
It's not pop - no sedative
Relentlessly inventive
Just like music should be

Finneas and his sister won't follow me I guess I don't
Care much but just the same
Would it be too much to hope that they'd think this song is dope
Or even just OK?

Shopping at the dollar store
There's no pretending anymore
We have something to lose
I buy handfuls of cheaters there
Just a dollar for a pair
So I can read the news

But when I read it gotta think
The whole world is on the brink
Depressing isn't it?
There's a refuge I have found
A whole universe of sound
Ethereal music

Finneas and his sister won't follow me I guess I don't
Care much but just the same
Would it be too much to hope that they'd think this song is dope
Or even just OK?

Guess this is a stupid stunt
Riding coattails but guess what
No need to apologize
Gotta do something truly lame
To win the algorithm game
Don't begrudge me the prize

Finneas and his sister won't follow me I guess I don't
Care much but just the same
Would it be too much to hope that they'd think this song is dope
Or even just OK?

poem / copyright jo richter:

sprich mit dem abend
als zähmt' ihn nicht knebel
nicht rauschunterdrückung - schabend
knirscht kiesmond im nebel

und aus tatzen des lichts
wachsen neonkrallen -
des schnurrhaargesichts
tauträges wohlgefallen

von kamin zu kamin
gelichtet - aus dem napf
will ein geruch aufzieh'n
hin zum bartdenkmalkopf -

tief im großstadtkokon
wird die geisel befreit -
frag niemals, wovon
frag: wofür ist sie bereit

interlinear translation: stockholm syndrone // talk to the evening / as though it was not tamed / by gagging / by noise cancelling - the gravel moon / crunches in the fog // and from the light's paws / neon claws grow / the pleasing comfort of / a whiskered face // being flashed from chimney to / chimney - out of the pet dish / a smell happens to rise / up to the bearded monument's brow // the hostage being liberated / from the city's cocoon  - / never ask for origins / ask: what is being prepared
