this has almost got a Virgin Babylon feel to it...very nice!

Ha! I worked it out for myself...then my mum and dad tried to tell me gently...so I let them off the hook....beautiful,delicate innocence in this vocal...you don't tell a man anything...BE TRUE TO YOU. BRILLIANT WORK. sista.Peace:)xo and I don't need to tell you what's brilliant...all of it.:))

This is my favorite of all your songs I've heard. Recently, it has taken on a very personal meaning for me. An old friend of mine was killed last weekend, leaving his young daughter without the father with whom she was so close. She's old enough to understand he is truly gone, but everything behind that... How do you tell a child?

Did you play this last night? The chords sound familiar, but don't recall the somewhat distinctive lyrics!

Piano and vocal based track mixed with all sorts of noises for your aural pleasure.
A song written with love and inspiration from my ongoing journey as mother, lover and human being. Constantly questioning the affairs of man, the universe and everything. Continually learning and growing and loving it.
Peace x

Vieka Plays (:vee-e-ka p-l-aa-ys). Born, will die. A female singer-songwriter-electronic-fiddler-producer-engineer currently residing in the fair lands of Manchesterville, UK. Inspired and nourished by music and sound.

 Vieka plays her music full frontal, sometimes delicate, sometimes brash but always dedicated to the senses. Alikened to Björk, Portishead with a dash of Cocorosie, Vieka moves through you in a whirl of challenging stories and sounds created by all manors of electronic geekery that can be harnessed, beated and whipped into shape. 

...'Combining sonic brutality, unfettered on-stage physicality, never-quite-reassuring periods of calm and moments of breath-taking spectral beauty'...'Ostensibly an avant-garde musician in the Portishead/Björk mould mould, Vieka’s beguiling live performances set her apart from other experimentalists.'
 … 'Their live concerts can veer from dubstep mood-pieces to eerie swing narratives and sexual psycho-dramas all with an underlying Burial-style-soundtrack-David Lynch intensity'... 

With a lustful desire for the wild world, Vieka weaves through all manner of sounds; blending, warping and creating impassioned soundscapes with subtle sound recordings from nature, life and the wide-wide world. Obtuse creations of synthesised bass, glitch noise and samples come from deep within the digital spectrum while the vocals cut through unabashed.

'With a tongue stuffed thoroughly in her cheek she blissfully hovers her sound in the darker sides of life (or hoovers her music up from the filthy corner of the proverbial room).'
