Outstanding song. Love the vocal delivery.

sparkling guitars - fine song, recommended to @user-269691200 @markjbennett @the-plugs

Magical song and the combined breathy vocals and chiming guitars are perfect. Thanks for sharing Tom

This is such a lovely song, beautiful voice too.

So much has happened in the World since I was last active on Soundcloud, nearly 3 years ago. The onslaught every day of so many people, animals and our precious Earth suffering, and no end in sight. I have been writing and painting how I feel, but my first recording is far from this, and of another time, a short, simple, and light offering for now.
I was born and raised in a small rural town that saw large amounts of snowfall in Winter, despite being the South of Scotland. We had plenty of hills to sledge down and no need to go to the Highlands. Through the years, in the many places I have lived in, my best walks were snow filled ones with the dogs, and in the mornings setting off when everything was pure and dazzling, and your whole body felt alive. The dogs would leap about so happy, and in turn affecting us, so that we were just as daft playing with them, totally energized! I give thanks for having had this.
This is for my beautiful wee Bridie, who died nearly 2 years ago.
Good to be with you all again on the Cloud!
Lyrics
Up with the lark and away we go
Treading so lightly in the snow
Skippin, and runnin, and jumpin so high
Scenting the air, as we touch the sky

Rollin and diving, and sliding away
Playing in a magical snow filled day
Skippin and runnin, and jumpin so high
Scenting the air, as we touch the sky

We play, all day, we play

Ooooh Ahhh
We're riding high today
Ooooh Ahhh
Love's shining all the way

Snow Skippin Days

Arriving to a music festival, the vibes grow on you. People as excited as you are. Feels so good to dance, sing and party collectively.

Where and when?

■概要(Overview)
熱すぎて溶けてしまうくらいの情熱を持てたらいいね。
PrivateからPublicへ熱心に大名行列する。
I wish I could be so passionate that I would melt.
An enthusiastic procession of feudal lords from private to public.

※あまり動かないですわ

「溶けるくらいに」Let's get passionate

溶けてしまうくらいに
打ち込めるものがあれば
それだけでいいわ

十二時を過ぎたころに
アタマにあふれる「I hate you.」
傷つけあうのはもうやめて
心を解放したならば今

幾重にも重なる
合わせ鏡の迷路
本物は自分だけ
燃えるように　溶けてる


好きなものをいくつか
そばに置いておけたなら
それだけでいいわ

人づての言葉信じ
正義の仮面で「I hate you.」
傷つけあうのはもうやめて
好きなものだけそばに置いていて

幾重にも重なる
合わせ鏡の迷路
映し出されたものは
燃えているか　溶けているか

■Lyrics
If there is something I can devote myself to so much that it melts, that's enough.

After midnight, the words "I hate you" flood my head.
Stop hurting each other. If you free your heart, now.

Labyrinth of mirrors overlapping one after another. The only real thing is yourself.
Melting like it's burning.

If I could just keep a few of the things I like close by, that's enough.

People who believe the words of others who don't know the truth and say "I hate you" under the mask of justice.
Stop hurting each other. Keep only the things you like close by.

Labyrinth of mirrors overlapping one after another. Is the reflected thing burning or melting?

Ignite your passion(溶けるくらいに)

Let me tell you all about our once upon a time
Now gather 'round, listen to my rhyme
A song of days before the crime
Before the big lie

Oh let me tell you of yesterday
About a time before the reign
Of so-called kings and their wicked ways
It was only yesterday
Now there's not much more to say

Oh let me tell you all that I know
If there's still time before we go
Fall too far into this tale of woe
(I hope, but I don't know)

Oh let me tell you all about our once upon a time
It wasn't perfect no, wasn't sublime
But we were free, we were just fine
Well most of the time

Let me tell you if I may
Of a bygone but brighter day
Well we can dream, and we can pray
For yesterday
Before we slip away
Into this grave

Our Once Upon A Time

"The Quilcom Trout synthesiser is a tribute to the Trautonium in its many incarnations and versions", Quote Rex Baxterfield, who created this free vst. The Trautonium is the first Synth from 1930, well known from A. Hitchcock's The Birds. Well, I used Trout 5 times in this track + drum and bass vst + flute ! ....  Famous are compositions for Trautonium from Paul Hindemith, German Composer, who accompanied the development of the Trautonium as a university teacher and was a kind of "Bürgerschreck" (musical bogey) at that time, because of his "modernity" ... :-)

Dubiousity Of Love

Black Pepper is a protest song that talks about the deep divide between the ruling class and the working class in Brazil. It highlights how the elite manipulates the population into fighting among themselves over ideologies that don’t truly represent them. While the poor defend meritocracy, politicians, judges, and high-ranking officials hold on to their privileges—funded by the hard work and sweat of the people.

Black Pepper
Everybody’s going crazy, no way to understand;
The guys up top just fighting for power in this land.
My friends don’t vibe no more, don’t even go for drinks;
Slaves to WhatsApp texts and the TV’s fake news links.

For some fancy congressman, some big-shot senator,
Honorable judge or the almighty prosecutor.
Waving their flags, trying to shove it down your throat,
Pushing their own side without a damn ounce of shame.

Nobody agrees, it’s just a big-ass fight,
And in the dead of night, they double up their might.
Stop all the beef and let’s go take a stand,
Against those snakes in suits who only wanna jam:

Black pepper—burns your ass, but they don’t care.

++++++++++ PORTUGUESE

Pimenta Negra é um música de protesto, que fala sobre o abismo que existe entre a classe dominante e os subalternos no Brasil. Fala sobre como essa classe manobra a população a lutar contra si própria por ideologias que não a abrangem. Enquanto o pobre defende a meritoricracia, os politicos, juízes e funcionários do alto escalão mantém seus privilégios, pagos com o suor do trabalhador.

Tá todo mundo louco, não tem como entender;
Os caras lá de cima nessa guerra de poder;
Meus amigos se estranhando, já nem saem pra beber;
Todos escravos de whatsapp e de noticia de tv;
Pelo nobre deputado, pelo ilustre senador;
Excelentissimo juiz ou o Dr. Promotor;
Levantando suas bandeiras, tentando impor;
O seu lado da sardinha sem o menor pudor;
Ninguem se entende, só tem confusão;
E eis que na calada os caras dobram o fundão;
Chega de brigar e vamos combater;
O falso planalto que só quer meter:
Pimenta negra, no cú dos outros é refresco.

Black Pepper (Pimenta Negra)

When pirates came to party Oh what a sight 
The stars above lit up the night 
Swords in the air A toast to the crew 
The treasure was laughter The gold was the brew

When pirates came to party

Llanpsych -- @llanpsych -- Tez – Gibson Les Paul electric guitar, mix, production, and composition
Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark – synthesizer, claps, shakers, vocals, and lyrics
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul electric guitar
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken– drums and percussion
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Fender Precision four string bass
This song started as a guitar composition Tez came up with while on holiday recently. He wrote it with the Eclectic Collective in mind, inspired by ZZ Top, and shared it with the rest of us as soon as he was able to return home and record it. 
  Stephen was first to the trough with this one, adding his thrilling guitar fills and solo. Being from Texas, too, he's no stranger to Biily Gibbons. Mark came next with some synth, and later added some claps and shaker. Ken put his rocking drums in after Mark, laying the groundwork for the groove. Josh completed the rhythm section with his bass soon after, though. Mark decided early on that he was going to add some vocals to this, and Stephen had to adjust his part to suit them. We're all really happy with not only Mark's lyrics, but especially his vocal performance, as well. Eclectic Collective now has a go to member of the band who know's what he's doing with his voice. 
  Once it was in the can, Tez decided to mix it, as it was his song to begin with. He did his always expert job with the task, too. 
  This is an example of Eclectic Collective getting down and dirty for a rocker that has the flavor of all of us firing on all cylinders. Special attention to both Tez and Mark for their inspiring generosity and hard work in conceptualizing this one, too. We all hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Original lyrics by mistermark:

I got the top down, driving around
Burnin’ down the road, no prisoners
Everybody knows that I’m on the run  
I’m gettin’ outta here do or die 
Black Jack paddy whack listen to me 
ain’t giving no dog no bone
What’s mine is mine and what’s thine is thine
But if you want me just pick up the phone 
If you need my number I’m # 1
Mama raised me alone ‘cause I’m a son of a gun
Now I’m paying my dues but I’m almost done
So if you want a piece of me
Come and get me
Come and get me
Well, hey baby baby now what you say
You hitch a ride with me I’ll take you all the way 
she said hey there baby just step on the gas 
I got places to go I wanna get there fast
Well somewhere at around mile 103
I heard a rattling sound I had to check and see
We stopped right there on the side of the road 
Then what happened next it made my mind explode
The girl started laughing as she locked the door 
She put the pedal to the metal couldn’t push it no more 
Way off in the distance half a mile away 
My baby called out to me as I heard her say…
Come and get me
Come and get me
My feet got draggin’ in the desert sand
But as she waved goodbye something fell from her hand
I picked up the paper it was plain to see 
My baby wrote down her number and she left it for me
I been ‘buked & scorned I been thrown some shade 
I wanted revenge cause I gotsta get paid
I called her up but I just got the machine 
And wattaya think that the message said…

Come and get me

Waltz from the Past - Improvised Piano

This ep is about beauty standards... Thank you.

Here you will find little acoustic pop songs; melancholy, dreamy-folk things. Sometimes some jangly, fuzzy rock tunes or ambient pieces as well. Work-in-progress demos to finished tracks, informal playlists to official album releases. Enjoy.
