Broken Alarm Clocks

This is a song that comes deeply from my heart. Morten, the wonderfully skilled and talented producer, had prepared an instrumental version of this track some time ago, and I revisited it a couple of months after I had lost my dearest furry bestie, Lumi cat. 

I miss her every single day, and after hearing this track again I started to pour my heart into lyrics and vocals, whilst thinking about Lumi. On the day we lost Lumi, we went for a walk and had a (half a) pint of Guinness outside a pub. When I raised my glass for Lumi, I looked up and saw a shooting star. It felt comforting, as if she was flying free and comfortable with the stars.

Some connections, whether humans or animals, touch our heart in a profound way and when their time is up as Earthlings, they leave a huge void when they are not physically here anymore. I have to keep reminding myself to think what a happy life Lumi had, and how privileged I was to have her in my life. Her first family gave her up when she was 10 years old and she got to very nearly 18 years of age, so we shared around 8 years with this wonderfully sweet character that Lumi was. She used to love listening to me sing (thank you for the encouragement!) and often joined in. I know she would have loved this song and been in her happy trance with a drop of happiness on the tip of her nose (this was an obvious sign of her happiness and she had the droplet on her nose very often ❤️😻).    

I wish you comfort if you are experiencing a grieving process. Time does its bit for the healing too. 🙏 And thank you for listening.

After The Loss Of Connection

#angry #chooselove #love #humanity #loveeachother #indie #protest #nohaters 

She say
“We all gonna die!”
He say
“Gonna be today!”
They say
“What the hell matters?”
I say
“I’m going to love anyway….!”
We say 
“I’m going to love anyway….!”

Take our pride away
We”ll scream to get it back
SCREAM to get it back!

Take our livelihood away
We’ll fight to get them back
FIGHT to get it back!

Take our children away
We’ll kill to get them back
KILL to get them back!

Take our humanity away
We will someday seek revenge 
Someday we will get yiu back 
But maybe not this day
This day we will turn to love
This day. This day. We will
Turn to love 
Turn to love

You are not worth the energy it takes
To hate you
To hate you
To hate you
(I hate you)
(I hate you)
Hate you 

She say
“We all gonna die!”
He say
“Gonna be today!”
They say
“What the hell matters?”
I say
“I’m going to love anyway….!”
love anyway
Love anyway 
Love anyway
(Fuck you Trump!)
(Fuck you Trump)
Fuck all you haters!
Love anyway
Love anyway

this day we will turn to love

Genocide, June 2025:
Israel is only the executioner, every nation which has armed that country in the past year is an accessory to that genocide, an accomplice, a facilitator.  We cannot talk about war crimes because when you target unarmed civilians, mostly women and children, we are talking about a massacre, like terrorists do, not a war. The people who orchestrated that massacre, in the US, the most duplicitous, followed by those of the UK, Germany, France, and probably a few lesser ones should be tried for crimes against humanity just as well as Netanyahu and his cabinet, because it has been going on for two years, generously reported by media of all kinds, so the enablers knew exactly how the arms were to be used, as a tool for revenge, domination, and humiliation of the Palestinian people.  The conflict has ceased to be about the defense of anything for months.

The parties responsible have made a mockery of decency, morals, fairness, proportion, or justice, not to mention empathy.  Of what little there was, these concepts will be a lot longer to come back than they were to be struck down.  

Is it 1984 already?!?!

I have not been able to recover access to my other account [https://soundcloud.com/ha-kekong] for a couple of years.  I have tried a few times to get back into it but SoundCloud doesn't trust me.  Same phone number, same email addresses, and they still claim that they can't verify my identity.  I created that account about three years ago as a substitute to my regular account which SoundCloud temporarily closed.  They closed it as part of some upgrade procedure in their system, the result of a bug that affected many accounts, about two years ago.  Since SC did not inform its users I didn't know if that was permanent or not, so I created that other account which I can't access.  Don't be mad if I have not replied to your message in the past two years, that's because I never got them ; ) ... You can always reach me here though.
...

This one here (957729823) is for regular folks.

I love you, both.

...

You can't see it because of the angle with which I took the shot, aiming down, but beyond those blocks is the sea.  To the left is the Mediterranean, to the right is the Atlantic Ocean.  No it's not Gibraltar, but a little bit further West. ... Actually I checked recently and it is further North more than West, I thought I was facing South when in fact I probably was facing the Atlantic ocean, which is why I suppose the waves were of a decent size where we were.

I then went ahead and butchered his work with a borrowed helmet.
... Sorry Joe. =(

I'm trying to promote what I think is good music, so if you want to help out a bit I'd rather you [like] or [repost] my *playlists* rather than my field recordings, if you don't mind, unless you are a die hard fan of those things. Thank you ; )

I speak French, so if you send me a private message, and that you are a francophone, please write in French, thank you.  ... I mean, you don't absolutely have to, but I would prefer it. 

All my field recordings (except for when I record a person) are public, freely downloadable by anyone who is able to click on the button.  I encourage anyone interested to use them in any way whatsoever, on purpose or accidentally. No need for permissions or credits or any other kind  of administrative maneuvers.
...

Anarchists give me hope.

I'm a big fan of EFF.  Love ya EFF.  (no connection with the above line)
... and of course Richard Stallman and Linux and all the others.  Bless yous.

Now don't be lazy, go find out what it is this "EFF" that I'm talking about.  I'll give you a hint: it has to do with computers.

You have a nice day now.  Hugs & Kisses.
