L’AMOUR EST UN AUTRE PAYS

Je laisse le temps et ses colères
Mets en sourdine les jours d’hiver
Me laisse vivre à la romance
Et à l’odeur de l’espérance
Pour ne choisir comme supplice
Qu’le bon du coeur et ses délices.

J’te laissse parler et ne dis rien
Tout est si beau, je m’sens si bien
Je vois en moi se transformer
Tous mes rêves en réalité
Un long voyage haut dans les cieux
Je tourne une page et dis adieu.

C’est tellement vrai tout ce qu’on dit
L’amour est un autre pays
Où les silences en disent long
Quand les regards sont si profonds
Que les caresses aux gants velours
Ne se terminent qu’au petit jour.

Je laisse les folles douceurs me prendre
Sans un combat je veux me rendre
Mon drapeau blanc est haut levé
Faîs donc de moi un prisonnier
Dans une géole toute en satin
Gardes mon âme entre tes mains
Je laisse partir les ombrageux
Les « as de pique » qui font mes jeux
Je ne prendrai que les couleurs
D’un arc en ciel avec tes fleurs,

C’est tellement vrai tout ce qu’on dit
L’amour est un autre pays
Où les silences en disent long
Quand les regards sont si profonds
Que les caresses aux gants velours
Ne se terminent qu’au petit jour.

Je laisse sur place chaque démon
Oubliez-moi, même mon nom
Je ne veux plus dans un miroir
Que la lumière dans mon regard
Et c’est si vrai à ce qu’on dit
Qu’on en meurt pas mais qu’on en vit.

C’est tellement vrai tout ce qu’on dit
L’amour est un autre pays
Où les silences en disent long
Quand les regards sont si profonds
Que les caresses aux gants velours
Ne se terminent qu’au petit jour.

C’est tellement vrai tout ce qu’on dit
L’amour est un autre pays

LOVE IS ANOTHER COUNTRY

I leave time and its anger
Mute the winter days
Let me live to romance
And the smell of hope
To choose as torture
May the good of the heart and its delights.

I let you talk and do not say anything
Everything is so beautiful, I feel so good
I see in me transform
All my dreams in reality
A long journey high in the heavens
I turn a page and say goodbye.

It's so true all that is said
Love is another country
Where silences speak volumes
When looks are so deep
That caresses with velvet gloves
Do not finish until the dawn.

I let the crazy sweets take me
Without a fight I want to go
My white flag is high up
Make me a prisoner
In a satin geology
Keep my soul in your hands
I let go of the shady
The "ace of spades" who make my games
I will only take the colors
A rainbow with your flowers,

It's so true all that is said
Love is another country
Where silences speak volumes
When looks are so deep
That caresses with velvet gloves
Do not finish until the dawn.

I leave on the spot each demon
Forget me, even my name
I do not want in a mirror anymore
That the light in my eyes
And it's so true to what is said
That we do not die but that we live.

It's so true all that is said
Love is another country
Where silences speak volumes
When looks are so deep
That caresses with velvet gloves
Do not finish until the dawn.

It's so true all that is said
Love is another country

L'AMOUR EST UN AUTRE PAYS (Petite chansonnette d'amour)

Para Lia - 'Leaves Of Grey'
words and music by René Methner, Copyright 2018

'hope is a waking dream'
aristotle said
sailing through the waves of time
'i have to keep my eyes closed'
the smart politician regrets: 
'these are hard times'
 
on the eternal chessboard
young soldiers are marching on
where a hundred armies have fed the ground
while an army of selfie sticks
is floating pretty ancient stones

and the leaves of grey
are sealing the stained marble plates
are weaving a winding sheet
when the wisdom goes to seed

'hope is a waking dream'
aristotle said
'and don't forget that history
repeats itself,
you fools'

and the leaves of grey
are sealing the stained marble plates
are weaving a winding sheet
where the wisdom goes to seed

they are hiding the inscriptions on the philosopher's stone
they are caressing the kings and queens ashes and bones
and the leaves of grey
are floating down to cover the remains of what we think is our eternal flame

Leaves Of Grey

When you were just kids,
and swung ever so high,
did you sometimes imagine
you could almost Kick the Sky?

Kick The Sky

Some Blues meditation, extended with some Flamenco like colors. Inspired by Jimi Hendrix. A completely improvised track, done without any plan before. 1 take, no corrections. 
Dedicated to all who are suffering, especially from the loss of beloved ones in these months of sorrow. Fender Stratocaster Kenny Wayne Shepherd Model, Spark Amp, tone developed by Kyüngwhee Chöí („KC’s Dynamic Plexi“, thanks so much!). Recorded with an iPhone 5s, no external mic, no sound editing (Mastering on SoundCloud was done later). Rough, sad & dirty. Keep on.

Growing up listening to tons of Lynyrd Skynyrd and Molly Hatchet among many others, I had been wanting to come up with a track to pay tribute to these bands because they have heavily influenced me and my playing over the years. There is hardly a song I write that doesn't have some element of these 2 bands creep into it in some way. It has taken quite a long time, but I feel I finally wrote the piece that does these bands justice. I hope you enjoy.

Lyrics; Aida Deturck
Verse
They took everything we had Lying to us with false promises just like gods they play and as fools we believed them but in the shadows we can hear your song asking us why are we so shy

Chorus
Rise up your hearts and don’t let them pass No, Don’t look back no time to lose it's bigger than you… No one can do it better, No one can do it better No one can do it better…than you

Verse
For the first time we learn we can’t wait for salvation Get up, carry all your dreams and come no more crying, we’ll fight together, is now or never

Chorus
Rise up your hearts and don’t let them pass No, Don’t look back no time to lose it's bigger than you… No one can do it better No one can do it better No one can do it better…than you

Bridge
We hear your voice, hear your song, feel your love mother nature we are trying to save you

Chorus
Rise up your hearts, can’t let them pass! It’s Show Time! The end is near, we have no fear, no more
Rise up your hearts you shall not pass Anymore Your Lie ends here, we are bigger than you…

Bridge
Ancient spirits told us deserts, seas and mountains rivers, woods and fountains whispering in the wind We are destroying the world.

Better Days

Kingdom Of Voices

This track really pushed me out from my comfort zone, a lot of times while producing this song I just wanted to give up. This is my first track where I have tried to incorporate more vocal presets into my song, not gonna I found this pretty tough.

There might be people who will listen to this song and be thinking "this isn't for me". So try to listen to this song with an open mind and remember, that it's only my first attempt at trying something new and different.

Thanks for listening and for all of your support

"The Unforgiving Sea"  
Music, lyrics and vocals by me: 

I can feel my heart sinking
Into this unforgiving sea
I imagine what he'll be thinking
On the day that we will be free

It'll be a moment in time
The  moment I really see you
It wont be lost in my mind 
When your world is opened to me

Where you and I 
could be ourselves
Where the only desire 
would be the end
Yes, the end 
of this illusion

That  gentle, beaming smile 
Has somehow escaped you
And that troubled wave of feeling
Was replaced with honesty.

And the question you had asked me
Were words too frightening to face
I wished I understood then
What was the meaning of this space

And when I met you 
Face to face
I knew exactly 
what you were to me
Now my heart is sleeping
in the sands of the sea

Another place
Another time
Another world 
Another life
Another place
Another time
We will be Free

You will be free

The Unforgiving Sea

I spent two years making Punto Ártica album as a whole, and I mostly played my mom’s Spanish guitar in the spare time. This theme and chords got shape with time, without any plan, in some different variations I’ve tried to remember and craft here.

Even a 7/4 vocal section had come up. In the spirit of this new profile, I asked Codi (https://soundcloud.com/noisealter) to adapt my translation of a poem I wrote when my age was about 1/3 than now (see below), and he also sung it with the passion and delivery I was looking for !!

Original poem  /  First translation:

FEBRERO  /  FEBRUARY

Efe de frío, Febrero,  /  ‘F’ for Freeze, February,
tiempo de ocio y ventura  /  leisure and venture time.
Sueño, guitarra, lectura,  /  Sleep, guitar, reading,
paso intermedio.  /  intermediate step.

Tiempo de amigos y risas  /  Time for friends and laughter,
de descanso e ilusión  /  of rest and illusion
de esperanza y ocasión,  /  of hope and opportunity,
muere la prisa.  /  the rush dies.

Febrero de nacimiento,  /  February of birth,
pausa para el estudiante.  /  pause for the student.
Los problemas van delante,  /  The problems go ahead,
estoy contento.  /  I’m happy.

WHEN WILL THE DAYLIGHT COME
THERE'S NO MORE SKY LIVING INSIDE
WHEN WILL THE LIGHT COME ON
WHEN YOU GET HOME   A FLASH OF LIGHT

BUT LIFE WILL PASS US BYE
AND NEVER SAY GOODNIGHT
NO KEY TO THE OTHERSIDE

WHICH WAY DOES THE RIVER FLOW
IT'S LOOKING REAL DRY EXCEPT WHEN I CRY
THE MOON AND THE SUN WILL RISE
AND EVERYDAY   THEY CALL YOUR NAME

A LIFE OF RIGHT AND WRONG
A NEVER ENDING SONG
NO KEY TO THE OTHERSIDE
(Break)
THE TICKING OF TIME GOES BYE
THE MEMORY LANE IS FADING AWAY
THE WAVES ARE ALL CRASHING DOWN
AND EVERYDAY HAS NO NAME

SO LIFE WILL PASS YOU BYE
THE PUNISHMENT FITS THE CRIME
NO KEY TO THE OTHERSIDE
