Great choice! Love Neil and this song is a classic. Really nicely captured/recorded imo, buddy.

What a beautiful solo. Suits the track very well and has more variaty then the original. Also the call and response works very well. Many cool ideas in this one. Great work!

Introduction in English:
Sometimes there are situations in life to which there are no solutions at all. You may have already done and tried everything. Nothing has helped. 
The "doer" and "controller" in me goes to its knees in such moments. And out comes the part that surrenders completely to hope. Then in a kind of prayer to his inner God and in his inner church at least asks for an alleviation of suffering for all those where all rational or scientific techniques and methods have reached their limits.
This song is about such a kind of "hope prayer"

Introduction in German:
Manchmal gibt es Situationen im Leben, zu denen es keinerlei Problemlösungen gibt. Man hat vielleicht alles schon unternommen und versucht. Nichts hat geholfen. 
Der "Macher" und "Kontrolleur" in mir geht in solchen Momenten in die Knie. Und hervorkommt der Teil, der sich ganz der Hoffnung hingibt. Dann in einer Art Gebet an seinen inneren Gott und in seiner inneren Kirche zumindest um eine Linderung des Leids für all jene bittet, bei denen alle rationalen oder wissenschaftlichen Techniken und Methoden an ihre Grenzen gestoßen. 
Von so einer Art "Hoffnungsgebet" handelt dieses Lied

Lyrics

Prayer of hope

I can only pray for you
For you to my inner God

for you I go to my own church 
sit down in the back pew

hear the organ man playing above me
floods the room with his smooth-painful sound

sometime humbly sit on my knees
go inwardly along your life

and I pray that you survive this all
that you will return to the world
I pray for your deep soul peace

I speak, cry, whisper, sing
For you 
a prayer of hope

I light a candle for you
The glow shows me, you are still there
Walk wistfully through many cloisters 
feel the cross that you have to wear

hear the murmur of the unhappy dead, 
the wailing of the damned from the dark underworld
how can I snatch you away from being cursed
my beloved, wounded, tragic hero

A Prayer of Hope

A Prayer Of Hope

My utmost thanks goes to my dear friend Dirk for lending me his Exquisite guitar skills and his voice on this song.
This song is about living out loud..  Don't waste time.. take the leap. 

Lyrics:

Wake to the Sound

Wake to the sound, Don’t drown it out..
Your voice will fade into the crowd.
live every day... you got a say!
It’s much too late, lying in your grave..

Oh, and so.. Everything lies
Sunk like a stone on the bedrock of time
We lose all our dreams
Torn at the seams, Say we’re fine, 
But it’s not what we mean…. Ohh…..

Oh Fly to the sun even if you burn, 
At least you lived at every turn 
Fight for love.. don’t let it go…
Its not too late to know for sure

Ooh... leap ...leap to sky, 
How can you win if you never try ?
So let's go where We can fly
Over the sea my love you and I
And when you’re lost, not sure where to go,
Leave sorrows behind you, come in from the cold
In rasping fire, leave behind all the pain, 
'till you find yourself again….

Ooh... Leap! Leap to sky, 
How can you win if you never try ?
So let's go where We can fly
Over the sea my love you and I.....

Started as bass groove after going to a Thundercat gig, needed something else so came up with the 11 note repeating figure on guitar which was then doubled on keys to give an almost Steve Reich type effect. 

One to check out start to finish if you have the time, thanks for listening. For the guitar geeks there's a wee solo at the end.

Drums: NI Karriem Riggins.
Bass: Warwick 5-string Corvette through NI Guitar Rig and during the 11 note sequence section sustained notes on NI Monark synth bass.
Guitars: Suhr Custom Classic and Strandberg Salen Jazz through a few instances of NI Guitar Rig. Short solo at the end is the Suhr.
Keys: various NI, Arturia and Spitfire.
Mastering: Ozone 10 Standard.
DAW: Ableton 12.

Sad to say my trips to 'The Headstone' on Sheffield's Hallam Moor have been curtailed by my arthritic knees. But...I can see my old friend from afar and hope to commune with it one day.
