I love this, it has a touch of Suzanne Vega and thr Beatles!  Gorgeous x

excellent mood, tempo, little echo works.

A song inspired by the word 'threshold', whatever that means... Maybe something about crossing the lines between the past and the present, or between the possible and impossible.

Reason to Believe (Karen Dalton Cover)

Where are you now?

Day 4 of my 12 Covers for Christmas 2023 by request is Songbird, a Fleetwood Mac song requested by CT poet Karen Ponzio.

A Christmas miracle, the workmen next door stopped hammering for the exact enough time for me to record, since I wanted to use electric guitar at home:))

Songbird -Fleetwood Mac cover

Galway To Gracelands

Found
V) Have you ever wished on a shooting star for someone to tell who you are, and who you could be..  
C) When I was lost.. and my world was down.. I looked to you.. and now I’m found.. oh I looked to you ..and now I’m found.. 

V) It's ok to say goodbye to those things that kept you down…. So just open your eyes and take a look around… then you can start this new life.. this new life you found

Instrumental

V) Don’t look back… it’s just a memory for you now … we’ll build our new life somewhere.. somehow
V) And wherever you may roam.. you’ll never be alone.. just listen to your heart.. when it’s calling you.. when it’s calling you.. back home 

C) When I was lost.. and my world was down.. I looked to you.. and now I’m found.. oh I looked to you ..and now I’m found..

EMMANUELLE
Les paroles sont de Frédéric G.
 
On s'aime à Noël, amants
Un petit jour seulement…
On s'aime annuellement…

Et puis le reste du temps
L'prochain Noël on attend
Ça dure depuis sept ans

Elle viendra et s'éten-
Dra doucement sur les draps
La pénombre l'aidera
Près du sapin clignotant
À ôter ses vêtements

Si lentement les ôtant
Les ôtant si lentement
Qu'c'est à minuit seulement
Qu'en m'faisant languir autant
Ell' s'ra nue entièrement
 
Et plus haut pendant ce temps
Au châlet tout l'mond' l'attend...
Pour la veillée de l'Avent...

Donc faut qu'elle appelle avant
D's'ouvrir amoureusement...
Pour leur dir' qu'c'est décevant

Oui, mais qu'avec tout ce vent
Comme il neige énormément...
Ell' préfère prudemment...

Bla bla bla qu'y'ait moins de vent…
Bla bla bla j't'embrass' maman...
Oui c'est ça j't'embrass' maman...

Elle est là, nue, elle ment
Puis raccroche lentement...
S'entouvre amoureusement...
 
Et enfin conformément
Au vœu qu'on fit y'a sept ans...
Bouche bée, artistement...

On s'aime à Noël, amants
Un petit jour seulement...
On s'aime annuellement...

Bouche... bée, ar... tistement
On s'aime annuellement...
On s'aime annuellement...

On s'aime annuellement...
On s'aime annuellement...
 
Ça dure depuis sept ans
Et puis le reste du temps...
Bouche.. bée, ar... tristement
 
On s'aim' manuellement...
On s'aim' manuellement...
On s'aim' manuellement...


EMMANUELLE
Words by Frédéric G.
 
We love each other at Christmas, lovers
Just one day...
We love each other every year...

And then the rest of the time
The next Christmas we wait
It's been going on for seven years

She will come and lie down gently on the sheets
The darkness will help her
Near the blinking tree
To take off your clothes

So slowly taking them off
Taking them off so slowly
That it's only midnight
That by making me languish so much
She'll be completely naked
 
And higher meanwhile
At the chalet everyone is waiting for her...
For the Advent vigil...

So she has to call first
To open up lovingly...
To tell them it's disappointing

Yes, but with all this wind
Since it's snowing so much...
She cautiously prefers...

Blah blah blah let there be less wind…
Blah blah blah I kiss you mom...
Yes, that's it, I kiss you, mom...

She's there, naked, she's lying
Then hang up slowly...
Opens lovingly...
 
And finally according to
To the wish we made seven years ago...
Open-mouthed, artistically...

We love each other at Christmas, lovers
Just one day...
We love each other every year...

Open-mouthed, artistically
We love each other every year...
We love each other every year...

We love each other every year...
We love each other every year...
 
It's been going on for seven years
And then the rest of the time...
Mouth...gaped, a...sadly
