What's One More Lonely Christmas (Pop Punk 2*)

Satisfied (original): played out over a sunset at Mines of Spain.

Folky tune with banjo, vocals, and all sorts of bird and insect sounds. 

Satisfied - banjo acoustic

Just Slide (Industrial 4)

Julianne Johnson - instrumental

Frozen unto the bone
Seed that has sprouted is already grown
Already, already, already, already grown

The harvest only comes once a year
And the harvest has already been here
Already, already, already here

What to say
In days of drought
The endless waiting around
What to do
When the endless river
Has already run through

Who knows
Where we go now
Seas thrown
Fire and cloud
Fire and fire and fire and cloud


Already - acoustic original
