WINTER COLLECTION

featuring @4catsncoffee on violin
:
You can throw away your past, but the devil gently finds ways to bring it back...  Devil's Timepiece is a guitar-based alternative folk tune with southern gothic echoes. The fourth tune off the d'ville EP >soundcloud.com/jh0st/sets/dville

Devil's Timepiece
:
Traces of smoke
Lingering soft hope
Words spit like flames
under the up-town train
Together alone
through the heat summer storm

Yes it is…
faded away
No it ain't…
the way it should stay

Church bells of peace
The devil's timepiece
Once in a while
love speaks, to the right one
'Til then I pray at the station
Penn the hymn to the speeding train

Yes it is…
No place to stay.

I saw the city lights
turn dusty moon 

I saw the blue gas-light
split the summer sky

(Yes it is…)
Last place I'll stay
No it ain't…
the only doorway

Oh, gentle violence
Time will rewind it

Oh, blame the summer wind
Sound the sirens

Who will write this down?

Continuing the Jazz injected pop-rock theme of Collect the Moment and Better do SOME GOOD this one references AJA though it could easily be ASIA. My time spent in AJA (Steely Dan) was about the same time we were dissecting preserved bodies in Otago Medical School. Playing live then I was channeling more of a Neil Young, Bob Dylan and THE BAND pre Americana country rock thing. But jump ahead 40 years and here we were just this last Saturday night churning out JOSIE from AJA in a set of originals and covers full of Jazz Chords and RnB beats. So this new song absorbs a lot of that stuff. 

HR Kiosk

Next to you, I feel a hero
The maintenance of normal, while you’re a trip to Cairo
Circa 2023 I’d like to paraphrase
Cause cities like that and Khartoum
Once set a soul ablaze

So book yourself into an HR Kiosk tonight
There’s gotta be an on-line guru who could shine a light
Infiltate you with guile
Make you think there’s actually an I in why 
Yeah yeah yeah

Time spent in Aja did it make me cynical?
Made me feel ok to rave 
And pull you off your pinnacle
Of course it’s arrogant to judge, someone on culture
But I see you circling thru the sky, with the eye of a vulture

Know you kinda inside out
So I’d try it with a hundred grand
I bet you on your virtual couch 
You’re lying on a slippery Sam

Course you’re going even lower - way below zero
Sayin’ hey let’s all be friends
Like Ghandi and Nehru
Your time at the Taj Mahal, did us no favours
After breathing in the rarified shrine
Where’s your reconciliation pavers

"La Javanaise" (1963) Auteur, compositeur: Serge Gainsbourg
--> English wikipedia: https://www.google.fr/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjsl9msu_HQAhXEvRoKHdsmBvwQFgguMAE&url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FSerge_Gainsbourg&usg=AFQjCNHyoYiedqefRCpbJW7ZD5eZJqgH9w

*Translation & lyrics below*
Un soir de l’été 1962, Serge Gainsbourg dîne chez son amie Juliette Gréco. Un rendez-vous précieux puisqu'il lui inspire un des standards de la chanson française. Le lendemain, l’auteur envoie à la chanteuse des orchidées et ce titre dont elle crée la première version. Cette ballade aux accents pop évoque le souvenir d’une danse baptisée la Javanaise et d’un amour fugace. « Nous nous aimions le temps d’une chanson » chante à son tour Gainsbourg. Le public boude longtemps ce titre, avant de le redécouvrir dans les années 80. Aujourd’hui, ce tube est celui qui rapporte le plus de droits d’auteur à ses héritiers, au regard du nombre de versions.

"La Javanaise"

J'avoue j'en ai bavé pas vous, mon amour
Avant d'avoir eu vent de vous, mon amour
Ne vous déplaise, en dansant la Javanaise
Nous nous aimions le temps d'une chanson.

A votre avis qu'avons-nous vu de l'amour,
De vous à moi vous m'avez eu mon amour,
Ne vous déplaise, en dansant la Javanaise
Nous nous aimions le temps d'une chanson.

Hélas avril en vain me voue à l'amour
J'avais envie de voir en vous cet amour
Ne vous déplaise en dansant la Javanaise
Nous nous aimions le temps d'une chanson.

La vie ne vaut d'être vécue sans amour
Mais c'est vous qui l'avez voulu mon amour
Ne vous déplaise en dansant la Javanaise
Nous nous aimions le temps d'une chanson.

One evening in the summer of 1962, Serge Gainsbourg dined with his friend Juliette Gréco. A precious rendezvous since it inspires one of the standards of French song. The next day, the author sends the orchid singer and this title she creates the first version. This ballad with the accents pop evokes the memory of a dance baptized the Javanaise and a fleeting love. "We loved the time of a song," sang Gainsbourg in his turn. The audience long sulked this title, before rediscovering it in the 80s. Today, this tube is the one that brings the most copyright to his heirs, given the number of versions.

"La Javanaise"

I confess I did not dab you, my love
Before I heard of you, my love
Do not displease, dancing the Javanese
We loved each other for a song.

In your opinion that we have seen of love,
From you to me you have had my love,
Do not displease, dancing the Javanese
We loved each other for a song.

Alas april in vain vows me to love
I wanted to see in you this love
Do not displease dancing the Javanese
We loved each other for a song.

Life is not worth living without love
But it was you who wanted it my love
Do not displease dancing the Javanese
We loved each other for a song.

Music by Monsoon Cortex (@monsooncortex)
Lyrics and vocals by Wild Christopher (@wild-christopher-lyrics)

Got to, got to, got to get going
Got to get rid of these jazz hands
Got to, got to, got to get going
Got to get rid of these jazz hands

Hard to keep your cool
Hard to be the man
When all you feel is jazz hands

Feel it, Feeling the music
Feel it moving you and feel the energy 
And you understand what I mean
You understand jazz hands

Hard to keep your cool
Hard to be the man
When all you feel is jazz hands

Want to maintain my tough
But my body starts to strut its stuff
Feel the rhythm in me
F--- it I got to be free
Got to be free
Got to be me
Me and my jazz hands

Got to, got to, got to get going
Got to, got to, got to get going
Got to, got to, got to get going
And show off these jazz….

Jazz hands
I feel it 
I feel it in my jazz hands
Jazz hands
