This one is more of a reading set to music of part of a piece i wrote about a place i used to live. We used to walk most days down into the valley and i long to be back there, hopefully one day i will ...
There are a few fluffs in the reading…
Dry lines of newspaper reports that day, including:

This one was tricky to do because the piano does not play at a fixed tempo, and it was an online collaboration (like all my collaborations).
EDIT final version now posted and the page turning is gone but i left this intro as is in case anyone is reading the comments. Does anyone read the comments? or the intro?
i turn a page somewhere in the middle of all this - you'd think i would…

Can i get a little whisky in this water said John
The day the world stopped being fair
I didnt know what to say so I said yeah.
I poured a double whisky and I placed it in his hand
And said friend, only true friends understand

ahahhahaha too funny LOL :) blue pills red pills: goldish green bills lost in the mills at time... stuck in a hole falling ever so
Loven this: the piano is great. I think I have done similar at times on the piano just no lyrics.

I agree with Norm - there is a lot coming down.

I've a suggestion for where that last bullet should go. Calamitous and yearning musical background well done.
Yep, keeps me sane too.
