lyrics:

I was just searching for family, and I felt all of a sudden a chill,

and that chill froze me still, like a knife through the gill,

I don't see family, no none at all, I checked through the cracks in the wall,

I felt like a Tiger, that had broken its paw, reaching for a handgun to draw,

I was still searching for family, oh how I wish they would jump out and yell,

I'm so scared can't you tell? Does my fear ring a bell?

I'm not a monster, but I know where they live, and I've heard of the secrets they give,

I found I am stronger, and more creative, and I know where my family is,

I was a man, with a mission at hand, and now I had found where to go, 

Oh I love how you glow, and just go with the flow, from your head to your toes,

lyrics:

Your story is full of holes like your daddy's straw hat,

and then you clung to my soul like a baby Crawdad,

You're no longer mine, and you're out of time,

You need a little push, think you better hush, the sea is full of wine,

I can't believe the words you say, their full of holes like your daddy's straw hat,

and now you won't let go of my soul, you latched on like a baby crawdad,

You're no longer mine, and you're out of time,

You need a little push, think you better hush, the sea is full of wine,

You're no longer mine, and you're out of time,

You need a little push, think you better hush, the sea is full of wine,

You need a little push, think you better shush, the sea is full of wine.

A new song.

A lullaby I wrote for my niece.

Shirt of the fox on the home page. I cant find the original record so if its yours or you know whos it is please tell me so I can resourse it.

my darling you're bleeding from your wounds i've no bandages for you

but i'm not gonna leave you no you're not alone anymore

the knife cut so deep your mind lay severed on the block

but i'm not gonna leave you no, my love, you won't be alone

as you lie there bleeding out the monsters crawl in from the darkness

but i'm not gonna leave you now hold on, hold on as best you can

CHALLENGE BY Matthew_Lister

'I've always wanted to visit the UK but never had the money. Bring it to me, in a song. Please.'

This is my first EVER nationalist song. I'm currently in the green, serene scene of southwest Wales, and thus have been inspired to write this for Matt. I'm not even nearly as skilled as Matt on the guitar, but it's something, and I hope, Matt, that you can picture the UK from these words.

Lyrics

Let me go out to the country,

Where trees have stood for a thousand yeras,

The sky is clear and quiet above me,

And the morning birdsong fills my ears,

Let me go into the city,

Where every colour fills the streets,

A manic masterpiece in motion,

It's oh so stirring and oh so sweet,

Let me go to the British border,

Where songs are sung of the olden day,

Public houses hold the worker,

And all of them sing their cares away,

And all of them drink their cares away,

Let me leave my resting headstone,

By that old cathedral in that Pembroke town,

I fell in love with an island kingdom,

And all of the things it's based around.

10 DOWN!

this is just wonderful i keep listening to it. as much as i love it's folk simplicity, maybe we can add 1 or 2 instruments to it? 
but beyond that.. i really think there's a collab here. i'm not sure what it is. it's not quite a cities collab but by the same sentiment, expressing what you love about where you're from. 
i've always been wary of people being 'proud' of where they're from and i've always frowned upon art with a national fervor. but i really like when people are INSPIRED by where they're from. i think these sweet lyrics sort of encompass that inspiration and longing for the place you fell in love with. 
perhaps it could even fall into a 'home' collab? i'm not sure if there is one already.

anyway i love this dude

At the minute I first heard TheBaerGypsy's undescribably beautiful instrumental "Green Set Overture" (go check it out it's amazing!), for some reason I thought of the "Whale house" by rabbleboy. I guess there's just something so surreal and illogical in both of them, they're so beautifully dream-like... I don't know, it's a little experimental but I just had to sing it. Hopefully it inspires someone to do something :) I'll upload the stems first thing tomorrow!

Enjoy <3

It’s all just a bad dream don’t cry

It’s all just a dream, it’ll be alright

Let me tell you what we’ll see when we wake up

Let me tell you what we’ll see, let me tell you where we really are

We sail away on a whale

At the dawn of a brand new day

We’ve planted all the trees and we’ve built our own house

And no one has drowned

We sail away on a whale

No one cries, no one feels pain       

Hear how the wind whispers, you heard what she said:

We never shipwrecked

First new song in three years! Whew... it was a long dry spell.

Stems are in results.

Haven't had much time for musicking lately so here's a slightly oldie - not without it's faults...
