Once
Upon a life
Do we find
A happy ending

Are the times
That we try
To race from the line
Slow down Laddy
Wont you go a little bit Slow
So Daddy can
catch up
Hey there Laddy
I could run fast in my day

I commented without reading previous comments earlier. I deleted it fearing my meaning could be misconstrued.
It is a wonderful song and I thank you from the heart for letting us share it. I agree with Andrew, not all songs give you a feeling. This one does.

Ah - you've uploaded this one as well, nice one :-)
But I still don't quite understand how you manage to channel stuff so apparently effortlessly, and invariably produce a song worth listening to at the same time. (And do it so often)
Mebbe I'll just press record one day and see what happens! (And then spend 3 hours/weeks/months twiddling with the EQ afterwards lol)

I hope a lot of people hear it. For me, it's one of those songs/performances that gives the listener a lot of reward for just listening.
My missus thinks so too (and she's the one who ALL of my stuff goes through before it gets out - I don't post anything without her reassurance first!).
Not all songs do this. And the writer never really knows that they've done it, or whether they're imposing on people with it if they have... The minute I heard it I knew this was one (might not be for everyone, I guess, but it is for me and Mrs R), and I suspected you might need to know it was cool and needs to be "out there"...

So glad you put this one up on here. Tis still as beautiful as when I first heard it this morning.
The song itself, simple and from the heart. And the performance matches it.
Wonderful creation.

Hey Rick.
Thanks bro!
It is a song about two people. My Son's Saul and Ethan.
In particular it is about Saul's first sports day and the Sports day that Ethan will never have in this life..
Ethan Passed away unexpectedly on the 1st May in his sleep at 19 days old.
I did one live track with vocal and guitar for Saul, and then did one vocal for Ethan in the background after as the song is about him as well.
Thanks again bro.
Peace

Did the guitar tracks first, followed by bass, then drums and vocals last. I wrote this song in a bookstore, after I came home and recorded it, I realized I made the song too short for all the lyrics.

every time you show yourself
i'll let your image float away
I'll let your image float away

you have no power over me
This is Soundtrack material in the best possible way.
It really casts images in the listeners mind...
I cant but help think the lyrics have a deeper spiritual significance.
Superb Mr Sweet
I was inspired by the music of a friend of mine, their band is called Aradhna and you might like to check them out. I've attempted to compose a song in the Hindi language and here it is.
The words are very simple
Union with Jesus
I desire union…
Faved Mr Sweet...
You do extremely well with the Hindi Bro!
It was one of me Pa's languages.
He used to play old cassets of music like this when I was a kid.
You really have nailed the vocal style.
Love the lyrics as well..
Written for a friend of mine.
be and i will be with you
you are a light house in this storm
you will overcome
you will overcome this storm
don't fear the wall for you will climb upon it.
you will see from higher ground
and the sun…
This has a real vintage feel to it...
The song is superb and i love the phrasing on both the guitar and Vocal.
Such a sublime song Mr Sweet..
Peace

4 stereo guitar tracks played out one at a time.
Another late night - early morning recording.
I like to keep a positive attitude about the things that haunt me, but sometimes dreams change course unexpectedly, and the worms creep in.
Enjoying a few tracks on this site with Indian flavor lately. My brothers legs were so red from slapping them to get the perc sounds in this track, I had to laugh, That alone was worth doing the song ;)
Enjoy # 92

Hot Damn!!!!
This is a Superb Production!!
The Skill it must have taken to do the Messages in Layers must be immense!!!
I'm Seriously inspired by this track but won't dare attempt anything Like it!
Soo good!
Many thanks to Kirk Lynch, a real gentleman and a pleasure to jam with.
His tracks are the heart of this tune.

Thanks to Sister Savage for helping us debut our new project. As busy as she is, Sister managed a bit of time and some great Jovian vox for us.
This piece or art is unique, sublime, and psychedelic.

Amazing!!!!!
I think Drumming is one of the hardest things to do Musically!
You are freaking Awesome!!!!
Faved Bro!
Did I say Awesome!!!!?!?!
AWESOME!!
It was a curious and wondrous thing.
One night I was in my studio adding some percussion to the "Quiet Rituals" track by Barry van Oudtshoorn, when my 4 young children (with whom I was long over-due to be tucking into bed and reading a bed…
Wow...
This has got the Awesome Factor big time!
I let my kid do some Synth for one of my tracks the other day... There is nothing in the world greater than Being able to share time like this with them!
I think is is amazing that this is a poem that you heard as a Child as well, and are now recording with your own children..
Warms The Heart Bro!
A Wonderful and Well Performed track!
It's really Spooky as well! Bonus!! :)
Well Done All!!

And a new one from T as well! Bliss... This is wondrous. Love the "Three thousand pennies..." line.
Back for another listen. I was wondering whether the shine would have worn off after a few days... NAH! It's still wonderful :-)
I commented without reading previous comments earlier. I deleted it fearing my meaning could be misconstrued. It is a wonderful song and I thank you from the heart for letting us share it. I agree with Andrew, not all songs give you a feeling. This one does.
