Winter 2019 part 2

Like the short lyrics' meaning "love has no hurry", music makes contrasts on rhythms and textures even inside each part: Main theme starts with fast drums on slow melodies & has a DANCEABLE? 2nd part with lead bass guitar; Central theme makes fast tracks become slow to the left channel and vice-versa, progressing to a POST-ROCK? atmosphere. Meanwhile, two lead guitars and echoing voices complete the contrasting piece. I hope to get your feedback !!!

Letra / lyrics: No hay prisa. / There is no hurry.

No hace falta darse prisa; / There is no need to hurry up;
todo va rápido. / everything goes fast.

No hay prisa. / There is no hurry.

Lo que ha de suceder / What is to happen
termina por ocurrir. / gets to happen in the end.

No hay prisa. / There is no hurry.

Te quiero, te quiero, … / I love you, I love you, …

Ser impaciente / Being impatient
sólo puede hacerme sufrir. / can only make me suffer.

No hay prisa. / There is no hurry.

Marcher, c'est des captures d'images, des sentiments qui se composent, se transforment, se ruminent en de douces pensées. Dans l'enlacement continu du parcours, cette source de satiété physique offre une richesse grandissante à l'esprit. La pérégrination ancre nos sens dans cette réalité.

Walking is capturing images, feelings that are composed, transformed, ruminated in sweet thoughts. In the continuous embrace of the journey, this source of physical satiety offers a growing richness to the spirit. The journey anchors our senses in this reality.

Ce projet se compose d'un prélude, d'une pièce principale, de cet interlude suivi de son postlude.

3 - Sur Le Chemin - Avec Franck Douvin

"A Love Like No Other"

Recollections of flowing memories from when you entered my life
Your long black flowing hair & those beckoning eyes that still call me
It was obvious that we were never through which is why I returned
And in this world, who could ever say they knew of romance like this?
A Love Like No Other

Am deeply sorry for the pain I caused from an addiction that destroyed me
You were always the one & I struggled to cope with all I could not say
As time slowly passes by, I know in my heart you will be back in my arms one day
A Love Like No Other, a girl that gave me a reason to smile
A Love Like No Other, the connection of two souls that become one

MEMORY

Dix ans de vie commune,
Elle avait su m’aimer,
Je prends ma belle plume
Pour mieux vous raconter.
Le ciel a prit son corps
Son coeur va me manquer
Il n’y a dans la mort
Que des yeux pour pleurer.

Elle m’a donné sa main
Pour un si doux voyage,
Tracé un long chemin
A l’abri des ombrages.
Sous les voûtes d’un palais
Aux multiples icônes,
Roi de cœur je serais
Bien assis sur mon trône.

Elle a mit du soleil,
Des étoiles à mille feux,
Des bouquets d’étincelles
A en mettre plein les yeux.
Ses cheveux « vol aux vents »
Une blonde crinière,
Des saphirs, des diamants,
Une couronne de pierres.

Elle m’a longtemps parlé
De roses, de fleurs sauvages,
Epis de blés dorés
Dans tous les paysages.
Une cascade à la source
Qui ne tarie jamais,
De cette eau à la bouche
Les envies que l’on sait.

Elle m’a joué sur le cœur
La musique des mots,
Fait des notes en couleurs
Sur celles qui sonnaient faux.
D’une triste partition
Bien trop mélancolique,
A su faire une chanson
A la folle rythmique.

Elle eut goût de désir,
Un parfum de saveurs,
Et des éclats de rire
A me mettre tout en pleurs.
De l’ivresse indocile
Qui me donne la fièvre,
Moi l’enfant si fragile
Je me lis sur ses lèvres.

Elle a voulu pour moi
Tout le bonheur du monde,
Me tenant dans ses bras
Des millions de secondes.
Et toujours su me dire
Notre vie est merveille,
Comme un beau livre à lire
Qui nous laisse en éveil.

Elle m’a emmené dans son monde
Qui a pour nom « Le Paradis »,
Un malheur, une peine profonde
Qui perd tout le sens de ma vie.

Elle m'a voulu heureux
Je lui ai bien rendu,
Et notre vie à deux
Demandait rien de plus.
Le partage de nos coeurs
Qui n'en faisait plus qu'un,
Construisait un bonheur
Amour quand tu nous tiens.

Elle a caché mes armes
Qui voilaient la détresse,
A séché toutes mes larmes
Par des monts de caresses.
De l’amour à faire fondre
Les glaciers de l’hiver,
Sans jamais une seule ombre
Au tableau des repaires.

Elle m’a emmené dans son monde
Qui a pour nom « Le Paradis »,
Un malheur, une peine profonde
Qui perd tout le sens de ma vie.

Un malheur, une peine profonde
Qui perd tout le sens de ma vie.

Je t'aimerais toujours.

Ten years of life together,
She knew how to love me,
I take my beautiful pen
To tell you better.
The sky took his body
I will miss his heart
There is no death
Only eyes to cry.

She gave me her hand
For such a sweet trip,
Draw a long way
Sheltered by shading.
Under the vaults of a palace
Multiple icons,
King of hearts I would be
Well seated on my throne.

She put sun,
Stars with thousand lights,
Bouquets of sparks
To put your eyes on it.
His hair "flight to the winds"
A blonde mane,
Sapphires, diamonds,
A crown of stones.

She talked to me for a long time
From roses, wildflowers,
Ears of golden wheat
In all landscapes.
A waterfall at the source
Who never dries up,
From this water to the mouth
Desires that we know.

She played on my heart
The music of words,
Makes color notes
On those who sounded wrong.
From a sad score
Much too melancholy,
Did a song
At crazy rhythmic.

She had a taste for desire,
A fragrance of flavors,
And bursts of laughter
To put me in tears.
Of indecile drunkenness
Who gives me fever,
Me, the fragile child
I read on his lips.

She wanted for me
All the happiness in the world,
Holding me in his arms
Millions of seconds.
And always tell me
Our life is wonder,
Like a beautiful book to read
That leaves us awake.

She took me to her world
Whose name is "Paradise",
A misfortune, a deep sorrow
Who loses all the meaning of my life.

She wanted me happy
I gave him back,
And our life together
Asked nothing more.
Sharing our hearts
Who was one,
Built a happiness
Love when you hold us.

She hid my weapons
Who veiled the distress,
Dried all my tears
By mountains of caresses.
Love to melt
The glaciers of winter,
Without ever a single shadow
On the board of lairs.

She took me to her world
Whose name is "Paradise",
A misfortune, a deep sorrow
Who loses all the meaning of my life.

MEMORY (Musique: Volt5000 - Texte et chant: Alain GUERIN) La perte d'un être cher.

Our heartfelt Song to you,  the Heavens, and All of Life.  

This delightful musical/spiritual collaboration unfolded so naturally, organically, and with such ease; the fruit of our mutual appreciation of each other's music over several years on SoundCloud.  In-deed, it was something magical that couldn't and wouldn't be rushed. :)  
So...
When my dear Norwegian friend and vocalist Oddrun Eikli   https://soundcloud.com/oddrun-eikli  let me know that she was really taken with my piano piece `Hymn To The Heavens'  @  https://soundcloud.com/gary-courtland-miles/hymns-to-the-heavens  I jumped at the chance to engage with her and sent the piano track immediately. 😁 Thankfully, she replied that as she had a special feeling for it, that she would love to try. And OMG, did she ever!  The result is a 50/50 collaboration that many listeners have described as 'Stunning'. I agree whole-heartedly.

Several months later, Oddrun wrote again, this time enclosing her Vocal tracks and a rough mix of how it sounded to her as a whole. Needless to say, she totally `blew me away`with the depth and beauty of her creative contribution.  I am still in awe of what she did. Here's what she said about the experience.  

    " I sing from the heart. 
       I have sung again and again until I found my way with the music. 
       It is a meditation, it is gratitude to what was, what is, and what is to come.
       I am so grateful for this journey in your music. 
       It has enriched my life. 
       With your wonderful music and this journey, I feel such joy and  
       tranquillity. W we will be best friends forever.

        I sing in Norwegian. Here is a translation, Gary.

        Only Here
        can I see you
        the way you are.
        Only here
        may the past be (fulfilled).

        I turn and go
        A winter turns to Spring.

        Only here.
     
        Just like that!
                                                       ____________________

So, dear friends...
may you InJOY :-D

lyrics:

she says - don’t think, don’t move
what are you tryin' to prove?
just be you
she says - let it out, let it breathe
let it crawl out of the sleeve
and i know - all the colors, step by step
are blending with her spiderweb

my muse 
i pledge my soul to you

i'm a kind of a dorian gray
and i am faustian, by the way
as long as i feel you 
i am everything you want me to be

my muse 
i pledge my soul to you

The Matrix Is Broken - tHE bLUE rOOM Ft. winkandwoo

(Lyrics)

Feel the rope of desperation strangled out make lacerations
chop it up and stack the piles spitting blood and licking bile

Feel that fuckin aggravation mangled up with devastation
live your whole life in denial bruise the skin and fuckin die


Play the part of those forgotten somewhere right between the rotten
worms that fester in the skin makes you wish for life again

blood was dripping in the sea blinded man could never see
what you felt and what you'll be never make it easily

What's going on in here i smell your fear
what's going on in here you disappeared
what's going on in here they smell your fear
what's going on in here you disappeared

You reach for the sinner they'll eat ya for dinner they said you're a winner
but you're a beginner you lack the devotion your mind is corrosion
so speak when your spoken the lessons were chosen the lesser were broken
your filled with emotion the target so broken 
the system revoking my thoughts your provoking the demon was joking 

Grab your neck in suffocation stick a dick inside the nation
cause we're fucked like fornication maybe we should just vacation

Less you know the more you swallow feed the wasted no tomorrow
packaged up at this location will you see retaliation

What's going on in here i smell your fear
what's going on in here you disappeared
what's going on in here they smell your fear
what's going on in here you disappeared

What's Going On ?

house of dark secrets 1 .........the house is calling you!

house of dark secrets 2 ........curiousity gets the better of them, 2 escape but one is trapped.

Guitars by the wonderful Jonathan Beckenstein @jonathan_beckenstein

The ebb and the swell and the push and the pull
You’re aware of the tide or you’re not
The flickering voices that whisper the answers
Won’t bother to wonder the ears that you’ve got

You will flow or resist, go along or be pissed
You will honor the tide or you won’t
And the feelings you feel go as far as your skin
While the water just crushes your bones
The water just crushes your bones

In times of confusion and heavy persuasion
You’ll lie down and give, or you won’t
As pungent reminders flow down through the rafters
And you choose to swallow or shut down the whole

They will flow or resist, go along or be pissed
They will honor the tide or they won’t
And the feelings they feel go as far as your skin
While the water just crushes their bones
The water just crushes their bones     

It’s the way of the world,  It’s the way that things are
You will honor the tide or you won’t
You’re the tiniest speck on the tiniest star
And it really don’t matter, cause we really don’t

We will flow or resist, go along or be pissed
We will roll with the tide or we won’t
And the feelings we feel go as far as the sky
But the water still crushes our bones
The water still crushes our bones
The water still  crushes our bones

Honor The Tide - With Jonathan Beckenstein

This is my first release of 2021 and its a song about missing things we used to be able to do in life.
I have a longing to see live performance again and miss the clubs and venues and of course travel.
We are in danger of entering a cultural apocalypse devoid of live music venues and festivals and tours if this pandemic lasts a long time we must somehow adapt as theres no time to lie down and fade 
away otherwise the music and good times will fade away as just a memory

No Time To Lie down

Track shows a very delicate theme and a quite hard-riffed part, both alternating and finally flowing up to an endless symphonic dream (words are half a poem I wrote previously (not these, but lyrics below)).

Letra  /  Translated lyrics:

No despiertes (Sólo un sueño)  /  Don’t you wake up (Only a dream)

No... despierta... no... no despiertes  /  No ... wake up ... no ... don’t you wake up
no, cuidado... no despiertes, na na na na na...  /  no, take care ... don’t you wake up, na na na na na…
... despierta al fin y date cuenta  /  ... wake up at last and realize
de que todo ha sido un sueño, na na na na na...  /  everything has been a dream, na na na na na...

Una vez más, nervios y resentimiento,  /  Once again, nerves and resentment,
todo en mi vida es sueño, sólo ha sido eso.  /  everything in my life is a dream, it has only been so.

Y de nuevo, con el tiempo,  /  And again, with time,
incubando un nuevo sueño,  /  incubating a new dream,
me voy hundiendo en mis propios brazos,  /  I am sinking in my own arms,
me acuno, me canto y me voy acostumbrando...  /  cradle myself, sing to myself and get used...

Otro escenario, otros personajes,  /  Another stage, other characters,
la misma historia, na na na na na...  /  the same story, na na na na na...
que durará un día, un milenio,  /  which will last one day, a millenium,
toda mi vida, na na na na na...  /  all my life, na na na na na...

Pero sin duda vendrán a despertarme  /  But undoubtedly the laughs of people
las risas de la gente, alguna tarde.  /  will come to wake me up, any evening.

Y entonces, con miedo...  /  And then, fearfully...

No... despierta… no… no despiertes (…)  /  No ... wake up ... no ... don’t you wake up (…)
