Just trying to stay young, really. Songs about aging ... or not.

Don't Want To Get Old ... How About You?

Nevermore a song from the debut album Perspective.  

Nevermore

The Man: We are so grateful to our friend SpeedMike! Follow him here -https://soundcloud.com/user-423331569
To think that a family from a little town in CT. USA is working with this outstanding guitarist from France is truly overwhelming! He helped this track out in so many ways....this song might not have happened without him.


The Song: This track has been a long time coming! This was actually one of the first original songs that we did....we just could never ever get it right...finally with the help of SpeedMike .....now in it's third incarnation here it is!

Will I lose my soul in this garden?
Disrobe me and my knowledge of good.
These forbidden feelings will they last forever?
Will our love ever be understood? 


Is the knowledge of good and evil the curse of mankind? Of course drawing from the story of our creation, this song describes how despite what we may be feeling at any given time, each and every decision we make has a real consequence. Sometimes long lasting feelings of guilt and despair imprison us forever. Temptation is strong.....Will you lose your soul in this garden?



Bills Note: So this is one of the first original songs we started doing at gigs. We originally just wanted to do a few gigs here and there at restaurants and stuff and we basically did all covers until I came up with this song. Truthfully you wouldn't even recognize the original version....it has come so far! We recorded the early version and I just could not get it right. I mixed it, I re-mixed it, I re-re-mixed, I re-arranged it ... and finally I threw it away in despair..... 
Years later along comes SpeedMike....I hear his guitar sound... his melodic style ...and well inspiration strikes! Here it is. 

We are part of a revolution, a family of independent musicians around the world right here on SoundCloud! 

If you actually read this far then God bless you!

Lyrics:
I could not see you cry through all of the tears 
I could not see hear you cry through all of the jeers 
I could not see you there because you got in the way 
I was too busy living fast to hear them say 

I'd die tomorrow

Poor Henry Chinaski 
Too drunk to read the words that he wrote 

Ain't that the way

I could not see you cry through all of the tears 
I could not see hear you cry through all of the jeers 
I could not see you there because you got in the way 
I was too busy living fast to hear them say 

I'd die tomorrow

Poor Henry Chinaski 
Too drunk to read the words that he wrote 

Ain't that the way

I'd die tomorrow

Notes:
Spoke with some one and they said "hey man,  too much typing".  Sad but probably true.  

First and foremost I want to take a moment to say thank you Jay(Deadlover80).  You have endured months of weekly updates and have been a fantastic production partner though the whole thing.  I have enjoyed every minute of it.  Honored to have your back for another great song.  Love what you do my friend!

Inspiration projects are a flash in the pan, they resolve quickly and are done before you know it. Sometimes its a crafting project and those can take a while to get through.  What we had here was a crafting project that started back in Feb 2017.  

Jay sent over the central riff and vocals and we set terms.  We agreed that this run we should push to move the bar forward.  I am sure there are moments Jay was at his wits end with me as a result

Recordings were rejected and re-done over and over looking to capture the right moment.  My recording track counts are in the hundreds in an effort to nail a take that made me say, yeah that is the right one.

Some stuff was crafted stitched in and then dropped,  things that originally sounded great until things got tightened up....then it was back to practice and recording.  In the end Jay and Thom crafted a song that deserved a musicians sweat and honesty.  We drove hard to deliver that. The cutting room floor is littered with sessions that required too much editing, were the wrong vibe, parts that just weren't going to fit.

Finally the central theme that ran through this project and I feel really good about, comes from an early conversation Jay and I had about re-recording.  "It's art, not a race, keep going until you have right take."  Think that pretty much sums up this project for me and I hope that is the feel that comes across on your side of the paper cone. 

 It's not perfect,  it however feels right and I think when it is all said and done... that's the thing that really matters. 

I hope this inspires you to learn about Bukowski's works yourself if you haven't discovered them.     
Peace and love my brothers and sisters of the cloud!

I'd Die Tomorrow

I'd Die Tomorrow By DeadLover80 & ThomDust

Time Is The Enemy

A song about the joys of sleep and sex deprivation - or maybe the other way round, whatever you want! :)

Lyrics:

My Sleeping Beauty

I tried not to wake her
I tiptoed up the stairs
As quietly as I could until
I fell into a chair
I may have been a little drunk
She was stirring in the bed
She seemed glad to see me
When these come-on words she said

I want you baby
I want you now
She said seize me in your arms
And thrill me
I love your beer breath
My drunken dear
Let me whisper in your ear

Get real!
You woke me up!

I tried not to wake her
Cos she was clearly in a mood
But snoring has its own ideas
On what is and is not rude
I felt an elbow in my ribs
Nearly knocked me out of bed
I'm sure she looked at me with lust
As these sultry words she said

I want you baby
I want you now
She said seize me in your arms
And thrill me
I love your snoring
My noisy dear 
Let me whisper in your ear 

Get real!
You woke me up!

Oh, counting sheep
Off to sleep
And a sweet dreams wonderland 
I find pure tranquillity 
Helps amenability
Woke next day
Feeling great
Though I slept in rather late
Called my dearest back to bed
Bring a cup of tea I said 
Hopes of passion filled my head

Oh darling
Good morning, kiss

I want you baby
I want you now
I said seize me in your arms
And thrill me 
I love your bleary eyes
My sweetest dear
Until she whispered in my ear

Get real!
You woke me up!

Oh, la-la-la
My sleeping beauty

My Sleeping Beauty

When there are no words please remember who I was.

Bill's Note: 
This started out as the background music that I created for a video I was making. But... the melody spoke to me and I decided to keep going with it. If you have family or friends who are "fading away" then you know exactly what this song is about. 
That really is Melissa singing the high notes in the distance and all piano and string parts are me playing. If you actually read this far then God bless you! You really are very important to us.

When There Are No Words

“Burning Out”

When the world burns, you’ll choke on your hors d'oeuvres
When the world burns, you’ll get what you deserve 
When the world burns, you’ll stop strolling through 
When the world burns, you’ll be broken too

(Come on down, expend some energy 
Let’s discuss a little synergy 
Reprogram your proclivities 
Do away with negativity)

Chorus

(All the fake money I earned now 
The useless skills that I learned now 
Look how the fable all turned out 
I didn’t quit, I got burned out)

Burning Out

This Collaboration is with my Heartfull Friends from the USA.

Burning Ember -The Pantheon Project Feat. November Sound

The holiday romance did not go quite to plan!

Lyrics:

Let's Get a Tattoo

So cool 
Our holiday romance
In Benidorm 
That you swore was in France
Beauty 
I took it over brains
Love at first sight 
When I met you on the plane
Hot nights
All Sangria and pleasure
And you promised
You'd soul-mate me forever
Oh yeah
Let's go over the edge
Another drink then
We made this solemn pledge

Ah-ooh
Let's get a tattoo
To prove you love me
I love you
Ah-ooh
Let's get a tattoo 
I got mine first
What about you?

Poolside
When I took off my vest
Your sweet name
Now tattooed on my chest
You laughed
And said you'd get one later
I saw you wink
At the handsome Spanish waiter 
But you
Said babes do not be jealous
You'd had enough
Of all the other fellas
Gorgeous
You took a selfie then
And sent it to me
But I'd never see you again

We should have been in Tattoo Heaven 
Choosing funky tattoo art
But you fled from Tattoo Heaven 
That day you broke my tattooed heart


Where’s your tattoo?
Where’s your tattoo?
Where’s your tattoo?
And where are you?

Let's Get A Tattoo

Don't be afraid
Put aside that fear
As the cloudiness comes
I'll be right here
I'll hold your hand
I'll take your weight
Just lean on me
As we wait...

The years pass
The tables turn
From a life and love
That simply were
No question marks
The lines were straight
They’re crooked now
As we wait...

Like an old film reel
The images float
Past my eyes
And that lump in my throat
Makes me tighten
My hold on your hand
My cries I swallow
My tears I fan
As we wait...

Bring me back
To an airy day
Paddling in
In the incoming waves
Trousers rolled
To knees exposed
Laughter loud and
Water cold
Hand held tight
As we jumped each time
The tide pushed us
Back in line
I close my eyes
I hold that thought
As we wait..

And I promise you
I won't love less
Won't loosen my hold
Through the cloudiness
My hand in yours
Your cushion my shoulder
It's simply time
We all must get older
Don't be afraid
I'll be right here
As we wait....

As We Wait

Rooftop - by November Sound
Featuring Guy Myette on trumpet
Mastered by Tainted Icarus - https://soundcloud.com/taintedicarus 

I don't want to get old, how about you?

Yup, it's a real horn section! Thanks Guy for your killer trumpet parts! A fun time ... hope you enjoy this song about growing up. Thanks again to Tainted Icarus for his stellar mastering production! You're the best Jeff!

Lyrics:
He said, 
“I’m losing my mind here for heaven’s sake:
this boredom so real and this smile so fake.
Will I be a husband and you be a wife,
Living the remnants of what we called life?”

So I said, 
“Let’s go up to rooftop Andy.
An elevator ride, well it would be dandy.
Where’s the tallest building here in Minnesota?
Let’s get there fast, ‘cause we’re getting older.
Let’s run down to the river bank Andy.
Fill a picnic basket up with wine and candy.
‘ Don’t wanna get old. How about you?
I’ll go anywhere with you…oh,oh.

He said, 
“Look back on our life we just stayed home with kids.
All that we missed versus all that we did?
Two people here fit like a hand in a glove.
Were we just roommates or were we in love?”

So I said, 
“Let’s go up to rooftop Andy.
An elevator ride, well it would be dandy.
Where’s the tallest building here in Minnesota?
Let’s get there fast, ‘cause we’re getting older.
Let’s run down to the river bank Andy.
Fill a picnic basket up with wine and candy.
‘ Don’t wanna get old. How about you?
I’ll go anywhere with you…oh,oh.

He said,
“When I get older I wanna be
The perfect man, you’ll be so proud of me.”
I said, “Life’s not a sprint it’s a marathon.
We got time so let’s have some fun.
Oh let’s have some fu…u…un!”

So I said, 
“Let’s go up to rooftop Andy.
An elevator ride, well it would be dandy.
Where’s the tallest building here in Minnesota?
Let’s get there fast, ‘cause we’re getting older.
Let’s run down to the river bank Andy.
Fill a picnic basket up with wine and candy.
‘ Don’t wanna get old. How about you?
I’ll go anywhere with you…oh,oh.

“Let’s go up to rooftop Andy.
An elevator ride, well it would be dandy.
‘ Don’t wanna get old. How about you?
-----
“Let’s go up to rooftop Andy.
An elevator ride, well it would be dandy.
Let’s get there fast, ‘cause we’re getting older.
Quick, what’s the capital of Minnesota?

Bills note: You ever meet those couples that stay together just for the kids? We've had some friends go down that road.
Did you ever hit 30, 35, 40, 45 years old ,etc.. and ask yourself what is the point in all this? What am I doing with my life? Yeah, maybe...
Are you the positive or the negative person in the relationship? A guy who sees it in the negative and a girl who says, "don't give up yet." 

If you actually read this far then God bless you! You are very important to us! 

Here we are a family living out in the woods of New England and people all around the world take some time to listen to our music. Some people actually like it. How cool is that?
