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

In ATL where I live, rainstorms have arrived for the next few days as Hurricane Erin has moved inland. Yet, even on the rainiest of days, the afterglow of music created around firelight lingers like the smoky scent of burnt hickory. In my world, that “firelight” is a computer screen, although in the past I’ve noodled an acoustic guitar around a campfire. Who hasn’t?! 😀

Today, I feel fortunate to enjoy the immense talent and camaraderie of SoundCloud friends. So a song of thanks. Pretend we’re gathered around a campfire for a toast — Here’s to humans making music 🥂🍻 To the goosebump factory! as friend @TheBeautifulDark calls it  ✨🪄And to its afterglow! 🍾 🙏

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

Moodiness

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

In collaboration with Francess Harris. She played the piano composition and I did the composition of the orchestral arrangement. Thank you for listening and enjoy. Any comment is appreciated always.

The Perfect Day (feat. Fr. Harris)

Enter Name Here …

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.

Welcome on my profile.

As a young boy, I learned to play the piano with my grandmother, who was a concert pianist. Thanks to her patience, I was brought closer to music. It was a hard but worthwhile way.

After I ended my school training and started my vocational training, the music got into the background. However, the music has accompanied me throughout my life. With increasing age, the music again got a greater status in my life.

First with the old piano of my grandmother, who had long since died and then with a keyboard, I started making music again.

I don't have a studied musical background and make music as a hobby without really had learned about orchestration. I find myself slowly into the topic and I am happy to have found some listeners.

Inspired by many lovely people, who also make music, I develop myself even at older age and look forward to further listeners.

Therefore, have fun hearing my modest works and thank you for the nice comments.
