@silent-bedroom apreciate. Thank you. 😊

I love the rich sound of the chord instrumentation and the slow rise of the melody. Calmness prevails. Nice! ⁓Rebecca

Tratamiento muy delicado de la melodía, como las flores de la foto.

"Winter in the City of Vancouver": On All Streaming Platforms. Here's a landing page: https://linktr.ee/michaelfirthsellers

This is a song about mature resignation in the face of human indifference and natural elements you can do nothing about.

My thanks to Chris Curtis for his harmonies, and to Sergio Aguilar of 423 Studios, for the supremely judged production and instrumental ability he brings to every song we have recorded!

"I would say just the weather in Vancouver in the winter can be kind of unforgiving."
- Brandon Jay McLaren

"I eat out three times a day most days of the year. This is no big deal to most (city dwellers), and it is not something I am necessarily proud of - it's simply the nature of my itinerant life."
- Ben Elliot

Lyrics
Winter in the city of Vancouver
It’s brutal if you don’t have some steady pay
And any working hours you’ve gained
Don’t help to ease the pain
Of living on the edge day after day

Winter in the city of Vancouver
Hail and sleet are flaying me alive
Cos the ragged clothes I wear
Let in more than I can bear
It’s an endless daily struggle to survive

Going south from Lions Gate to Granville Island
Going east from English Bay to Coquitlam
I’m seeking work to get me through to summer
If the job’s well done, press some dollars in my hand

Coyotes snapping at my heels as I walk through Stanley Park
I sure don’t care to find out if their bite is worse than their bark!
My coffee’s cold in my two-year-old disposable Starbucks cup
I fear my hopes are so far down there’s no way to pull them up!

Winter in the city of Vancouver
Christmas snow, the first in many years
As I tramp through dirty slush
My face a cold, red flush
I brush away my bitter icy tears

Going south from Lions Gate to Granville Island
Going east from English Bay to Coquitlam
If I knock upon your door, give me whatever chore
And if the job’s well done, press some dollars in my hand

Going south from Lions Gate to Granville Island
Going east from English Bay to Coquitlam
Boss man says "Just a day, then on your way, son"
But at least I get some dollars in my hand

Winter in the city of Vancouver
A city that I love and love to hate
I’m looking for some heat,
And something good to eat
Nothing more, for now at any rate

Another Ride On The Wrong Boat

I created this theme from a succession of chords that I used to warm up at the piano.
With it I want to reflect what I feel when in early spring the cherry trees of my valley burst into millions of flowers.
I was honored to have this theme used by Vera Francis in a guided meditation on her YouTube channel in Spanish  https://youtu.be/3srN51efuIE

In fact it's 2 scenes from Kurosawa's movie that I merged. In the first, the inhabitants of the slum play cards while singing a refrain. In the second, the same decide to spend a night of drinking to forget the recent worries. Not that the song needed an instrumental support, it was rather an opportunity to review this pretty charivari inspired by Nô theater.

En fait il s'agit de 2 scènes du film de Kurosawa que j'ai fusionné. Dans la première les habitants du taudis jouent aux cartes en entonnant une ritournelle. Dans la deuxième, les mêmes décident de passer une nuit de beuverie pour oublier les tracas récents. Non pas que la chanson avait besoin d'un support instrumental, c'était plutôt une occasion de revoir ce joli charivari inspiré du théâtre Nô.
