Happy Monday my SC friends. Today I am supremely excited to offer you (the listener) my next collaborative creation of 2023; and for those keeping track at home, this is my 4th collab with the legendary (at least, in my mind) Stone Catcherye (https://soundcloud.com/stonecatcherye, https://stonecatcherye.bandcamp.com/). 

Stoney’s lyrics speak for themselves; but I gotta say, I am sharing the sentiment. We hope you enjoy our latest collab, ‘Scintilla’ (and we hope you have some bell bottoms lying around… cuz this is not a drill). :D

Lyrics:

there's a small piece inside of me
defenselessness be thy name
it's a party where nothing's free
who would care to explain

dark. all it takes is a spark
a trace of love in your heart
are you brilliant or just smart
then dig down deeper

there's a small piece inside of me
that's shown interest to scream
it's a riot inside of me
and my brain's the police
in contempt and unbendingly
I surrender, it seems

dark. all it takes is a spark
a trace of love in your heart
are you brilliant or just smart
then dig down deeper

heart. need to get back my spark
get in the state of the art
not let this peel me apart
and dig down deeper

if I dig deep enough,
maybe I'll bury me...

heart. need to get back my spark
get in the state of the art
not let this peel me apart
and dig down deeper

dark. all it takes is a spark
a trace of love in your heart
are you just brilliant or smart
then dig down deeper

if I dig deep enough maybe I'll plant a seed
put in all that I have just to feel that in green
if I care for this deep, it will grow to a tree
and I'll save all it's sap and pick up all of it's leaves

F.W. Friends

Präsenz / Presence

Hallo, my Dear
Ich ahne, Du bist hier
Ich fühle Deine Präsenz
Obwohl das gar nicht sein kann
Und mir das eigentlich auch ganz klar ist

Auch, wenn Du gar nicht mehr da bist
Fühle ich, dass Du mir ganz nah bist - 
Spüre ich 
Wärme und auch Licht
Als schien’ die Sonne in mein Gesicht

Auch, 
Wenn Du längst schon fort bist
An einem ganz anderen Ort bist
Abwesend bist Du doch nicht
Eine Trilliarde Sterne 
Beleuchten Dein Gesicht
…

Hello, my dear
I know you are here
I feel your presence
Though it can't be
And I know that - certainly

Even when you are no longer here
I feel that you’re very near - I feel 
Warmth and light
As if the sun 
Were shining into my face

Even though, 
You are long gone
To a completely different place
You are not absent
One trillion stars 
Light up your face
And then, 

I can almost feel you upon my skin
I can smell the odor of the past

And then you’re gone again  (2)

This is a cover from Paul McCartney and Wings, from 1975 album, Venus and Mars, and this album was supported on their 1976 Wings over America tour. They always opened with Venus and Mars/Rockshow
     Ken sent Josh and Tez an email a few months back, about maybe covering this awesome rocker, after we released “Hello World." Before responding, Ken reposted his cover of "Richard Cory," a Simon and Garfunkel cover, sung by Denny Laine and Sir Paul on the Wings Over America triple live album. Stephen commented that “Rockshow” was one of the first songs he learned on guitar. Ken said, “Well, here’s your sign!" He freaked and invited Stephen to immediately contact Josh.
     We finished everything but the vocals by early June, but were stuck on lead vocalist. Several of the collective gave it a go, but nothing sounded right. Then came a late game idea. We had all been following and fans of The Mysterious Decibel for quite some time, so we asked him if he'd be interested in singing it. He was game, and really delivered what so many could not. He is a new, welcome addition to our mix. You'll also hear Stephen, who also accomplished the herculean task of mixing and producing this song, very ably play the entire song on the guitar, with Tez playing the ripping leads. 
  We hope you enjoy our labor of love that has been an entire summer in the making.
