pedal to the metal on this...nice rocking peoples

Super track lads. Great seeing you guys keep the flame lit together 🫡🔆🧬🎶

This guitar riff goes hard! Great song guys, you rock!

Hey Bill man, fantastic performances in here. This one certainly lives up to its name. Love your singing in here, too. Awesome song here, brother man!

Like a more progressive Cheap Trick between the guitar work and Rob's vocal

I like the way the guitar and vocals dance with each other. Cool Song!

Lyrics:
Hétéro paradoxale, ou lesbienne libertine.
Tu règles la focale de ta grâce androgyne.
Anneau à ton sourcil, ou perçant ta narine
Ta pâleur indocile, ton parfum de nectarine. 

Souffle rauque de miel, quand tu embrasses
Semant dans ton ciel, tes étoiles voraces
Ta démarche féline, ton regard de chagasse
Ta rudesse câline, que jamais rien n’efface. 

Ta splendeur animale, quand la nuit te domine
S’enroule en dédale, de mailles douces et fines.
Tu érodes le temps, une bête dans ta poitrine
Le tempo en dedans, sous ton manteau d’épines.

Tes sabots fourchus scandent ta force et ta grâce,
Tes amours déçus, et le magma sous la glace.
Lèche tes blessures, quand enfin tu te délasses
Dans le clair-obscur où tes démons te terrassent.

Corps fondu dans le satin, humide sous la bruine,
Tu pilotes ton destin, comme ton Aston-Martin.
Dans le feu de tes reins, ta révolte se dessine.
La fermeté de tes seins, d’un coup de dague m’assassine

Lyrics: 
A crying heart
I put my sadness on to pages
And I don't know where I'm going
But I'll figure it out

As I let my thoughts flow
And contemplate
Life feels like a labyrinth
Complicating my fate
Many paths to take
That will lead me to gates
Of heaven or hell
Based on choices I make
Wrong turns sometimes
We make mistakes
Stuck in our own ways
End up in the same miserable place
But I believe at the end of day
Spirit remains and love will prevail
Even though I have never seen
An angel from above
I have witnessed earthly gods
With unconditional love
But sorrow is here to stay
And they had to go away
I can feel their spirit remains
And their love will prevail
I have no doubt
I have no doubt
I can feel it deep down
They are watching me above
As I continue on earth
Their blessings give me strength
I know their spirit remains
And their love will prevail

A crying heart
I put my sadness on to pages
And I don't know where I'm going
But I will figure it out
A dying star
Exploding in the silence
And I don't know where I'm going
But I will figure it out

Devil trying to deceive me
With thousand temptations
Distract me from my poetic vocation
But the passion remains
Even on rainy days
I take shelter in a booth
No time for a vacation
Somedays I forget the code
Of the solid soldier
Some days I see the cup
Devoid of holy water
Some days I feel trapped
A prisoner in a cell
My vision aligns
With the path leading to hell
But I keep righteousness in my heart
And focus on my craft
Yeah and tap into higher self
And with time
My wings feels lighter
As pain subsides
I feel the spirit remain
This time I invest is never a waste
I manifest jewels
Pulling rhymes from the chest
Believing greatness
I continue this quest
And I know at the end of the day
Memories will fade but the spirit remains
And the love will prevail


Spirit Remains

the sun come up
the moon goes down
or is it the other way around
from where I sit 
I think I see
the answer staring back at me

doesn't matter who you are
or what you think or want or need
time stands alone silent and free
and it doesn't take requests from you or from me

life's a big circle
deep dark hole
a sea too deep
a wall too high
little things seem big  and big things pass us by
we think we control time
'but that;s a white lie

to understand who we are and what we're here for
put away your watches and stop keeping score
pretty clear what's right
you can feel what's wrong 
you are just a part of the music
not the subject of the song

perfect journey

This song began as a looper beat that Josh created in BandLab. He does that often to start an idea. However, this beat sat on the shelf for almost a year, until he shared it with JJ for one of his Saturday night music sessions. JJ put an arrangement on it with his organ and bass. Josh quickly replaced the bass idea with his own version of it, though. 
  Now it was Ken's turn to replace the dull looper beat with something alive and organic, which he did in the most creative and solid way possible. We had a skeleton now, and it was time to share it with Beck, with whom this is Eclectic Collecitive's first song. She added her magic via the synth you hear sprinkled throughout. Stephen weighed in next with his funky wah guitar. 
  It was almost done at this point, but of course, we wanted Carl to add his greatness to it, as well, which he did by writing and singing some compelling vocals. He took the working title, which Josh came up with having just read The Odyssey, and wrote a whole song about it!  
  Once it was all laid down, we asked Tez to do his expert work with the mix and production, which he did perfectly, as always. We're very lucky to have two very talented producers in the group, and grateful to Tez for ironing this one out for us. 
  This is, as mentioned, the EC's first go round with Beck, and we couldn't be more thrilled to work with her. Not only is she a skilled, creative musician, but she is a delightful ray of sunlight to work with, too. We have another collab with here we plan to release in the coming weeks, as well. There will be more to follow. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.
Original lyrics by The Beautiful Dark
Hold on dear crew
Cruel winds fly north
Our tenth foul day
Land found fresh worth
Untameable sea
We survived people
Ashore
Fresh water
Food
Lessen our feeble

Three of company
Greet these inhabitants
Find what land lends their habitance
Trio arrive and find not hurt
Then found local food
Good offering flirty

Three watered mouths by nicest taste
Who needs home
We stay
No haste
Love lotus buds
Don’t mind the captain
Let’s stay and munch this tuck of trapping

Captain bemused All aboard!
No more shall eat this food mind sword
What of home!
What of love!
Weep not dear three
Cold turkey tough

Smite that sea
Hold tight your oars
Now heave to Ithaca
South-westwards
Bye Lotus eaters
Trip like land
Love lesson lives

Lyrics 

I’ve got wind in my hair
Smile on my face
Needle point to ninety five
No one anywhere around

Back pinned to my seat 
She’s revving high
Pulling away clean and green
Front end up high

This jalopy has only one speed
It’s full throttle ahead
From stoplight to stoplight

Who want to take a ride
Take your life
Put it in my hands
Take a thrill ride

Check the oil, check the tires
Every night
Put a fresh shine on the paint job
Man, she looks so tight

I’ve got no reason to stop
No one gonna stop me
Needle up to hundred five
Red and blue lights all around

Hands pinned to my back
Feet spread wide
Got a fresh shiner on my eye
I know better

Take A Thrill Ride

Aint Having It
