Catastrophic Outcomes - The New Vigos

Written in March 2021, this song is about recognizing that sometimes the best of times are unplanned. The good and the bad hits you any time, so when times are good, appreciate it.

This song was written on piano but with more emphasis on guitar that other songs of mine. Recorded on a Fender Jaguar, Fender Jazz Bass, Yamaha Motif6, and Baldwin grand piano.

The Best Of Times (Original by Ben Buttrick)

‘CAMINHO’
Cap. I 

  1
Apaga o cigarro no cinzeiro de bronze, aparafusando, desaparafusando. Levanta-se com cuidado para não afugentar o silêncio. Compõe as costelas. Desce as escadas que vão ficando para trás. A máquina de lavar a roupa em rotação. Dirige-se para a porta de saída. Encosta-se á porta para dar a volta á chave.

'PATH'
Chapter I

  1
Put out the cigarette in the bronze ashtray, screwing, unscrewing. He gets up carefully so as not to chase away the silence. Make up the ribs. Go down the stairs that are left behind. The washing machine in rotation. He heads for the exit door. Lean against the door to turn the key around.

Roberto B (@user-55822457) and I continue composing together for our "Double Reflections" album in progress. We now present our 8th collaborative track, "Double Reflection VIII", and we hope you'll enjoy it!

The artwork cover, that will also be used for our album in progress and all its constituent tracks, is our own, cropped and annotated by Alex M (in Mac OS Preview) on 29 April 2021.

Created in collaboration on 4 May 2021 (initial mix and recording in MAGIX by Roberto B), 10-11 May (subsequent additions, mix and recording by Alex M in GarageBand and Logic Pro) and 11 May 2021 (final mix and recording in Logic Pro by Alex M), and posted on SC on 11 May 2021 (by Alex M).

Thank you, again and again, Roberto, for the inspiration and joy in composing our "Double Reflections"!

Double Reflection VIII - Roberto B & Alex M

If this is where it ends
If all the oceans freeze
I can live with that
Long as you’re here with me
The asteroids may hit
Love, love, love 
And the apocalypse

The planet’s burning
As we’re talking now
Somewhere an outbreak
Is breaking out somehow
Gravity’s hold may slip
Love, love, love
And the apocalypse

All humankind might fall
We’re just a pain in the neck after all
Be dying for your kiss
In the midst of the vast abyss

We’re gonna find some place
To take some refuge
It’s not at all ideal
But it’ll have to do
It all comes down to this
Love, love, love 
And the apocalypse

When all the ice caps melt
And start to breaking through
We’re gonna keep it tight
We’re gonna keep it cool
Aboard this sinking ship
Love, love, love
And the apocalypse

If this is where it ends
If all the oceans freeze
I can live with that
Long as you’re here with me
Love, love, love and the apocalypse…

Been a Long Time Coming

Well it seems like only yesterday
You were right here by my side
Having such a good time 
Morning, noon and night

And though we've taken
Different roads on through this life
We're coming to the crossroads
That will make it worth the price

Yea it's been a long and lonely year
Without you here my dear
And I'm counting down the day
Till I'm on my way

It's been a long time coming
And I know it's true
Nothing that I'd rather do than
To be with you

Guitar solo :)

It's been quite the journey
And you know we're not done yet
We got a lot of good times left
Till we ride into the sunset

And well
Some might call it lucky
Some might call it fate
All I know is I've felt this way
Since our first date

It's been a long and lonely year
Without you here my dear
And I'm counting down the days
Till I'm on my way

It's been a long time coming
And I know it's true
Nothing that I'd rather do than
To be with you

Nothing that I'd rather do than
To be with you
