I have a great attraction
To all the ones
Who don’t have one distraction
From what they want

I can’t fault what you’re doing
I wish I could
If I get lost pursuing
Just carry on 

Every step that is taken
We take alone  
In search of what we’re craving 
A thing unknown

I don’t think something’s missing
In all the ones
Who through their indecision
Get left behind

I’ve got such admiration
For all the ones
Who know no deviation
From all their plans

And where there’s satisfaction
In your way
Of living in the action
It’s not my way

A great attraction

Recorded live. 

I want to be happy again.
I hope you see that you are more than a friend.
You're my gem. 

I'm so sorry for not being me.
I hope to mend.
But, I must believe that I'll see it through to the end.
And just maybe then...

Everything's Moving

Jonathan Beckenstein: Guitars, bass, musical composition and mix http://soundcloud.com/jonathan_beckenstein
Clarence Paisley-Cheesemont: Drums
Wheelwright: Vocals, vocal melody, lyrics and sampled cello

This track is available on Immaculate Distraction https://fictivesisters.bandcamp.com/album/immaculate-distraction

I am a great admirer of Jonathan's work and when he approached me with this wonderful piece of music asking if I might have a go at lyrics and a vocal I felt really privileged. I wanted to try to do as good a job as I could, but initially I struggled, and then, feeling extremely despondent I took a break from it. On my second attempt I think I started to listen properly to what the music was saying – rather than imposing too much of myself on it – and I  began to get melodies and word patterns that seemed like they were there under the surface already.

This has been an amazing project to work on, and Jonathan has been hugely supportive throughout. I've done my bit for sure, but it would have been nothing without the music.

Last night I dreamed that I could play the guitar
I was on The Titanic trying to sing
My heart will still go on
But I kept getting it wrong and
I couldn't get the high notes but
At least we hadn't hit the iceberg yet and

All the stars above us shone
Like cheap sequins in the sky
Like they'd all just been stuck on
By someone who didn't try

I was studying Kate Winslet
She was standing by a ventilation inlet
In a girly dress despite the cold and
I could see that she was not impressed
By my extraordinary rendition
I said you're looking nice and
I need relationship advice and she replied
Let's take a walk on the starboard side

And the stars above us shone
Like cheap sequins in the sky
Like they'd all just been stuck on
By someone who didn't try
When life's too flattering too sweet
We all like to pretend
But we all know how it ends

We're listing to port and
Kate's politely listening as
I'm listing all the things I should have said to you but
Never did
And realistically I think she's thinking
Less about you and me and
Rather more about the fact that
We've all started sinking yeah
Into the unforgiving sea oh

But the stars above us shone...

We All Know How It Ends (Wheelwright + Beckenstein)

Hello friends and fellow humans, 

First off I want to say a huge thank you to all the incredible artist who have shared their fantastic music with me for my little show. It has been an honor to play your songs. I’m grateful for your support in making this show happen. You guys are truly amazing. 

Check out all the fantastic talented people who have appeared on the show in the playlists. 

Now if you don’t know me, 

My name is Rayna and I host a radio show on VOWR.ca (VOWR 800AM if you’re on the Island) It is a wonderful all volunteer Radio Station celebrating 100 YEARS on the air in 2024  We are located in St. John’s, Newfoundland, Canada.  

I started a new show called the “The Unsigned Radio Hour” where I give artists from SoundCloud and other venues a chance to have their songs heard on the radio. 

I love listening to, writing or playing music.  I understand what a wonderful feeling it is to share that love and passion with others.

I want let YOU SHINE!!

Sadly I’m not going to make you any money. However you will have the joy of telling all your friends “I’m going to be on the radio tonight.” 🤣

Message me if you would like to share your music.  Send me a song or two in MP3 and a little bio to share with my listeners. I will let you know when your song will be played on the air.
