Best with headphones but WARNING: the beginning might be a bit noisy... it gets better I promise!------------------------------------------------------

PLEASE LISTEN TO ILLIA'S VERSION --- http://www.hitrecord.org/records/1309674

My version here is an ode, a tribute to the wonderful lyrics of svirlee (Illia)! 

The reason why I REmixed this is... well, half of it is because the lyrics are powerful stuff, and the other, I wanted to see if putting it to female vocals would make it a subtle, eerie interpretation of Illia's words. My guitar playing is a little rusty because it has been about 2-3 years since I last picked up a guitar, so you have to excuse that part. My fingers are still trying to get all calloused again (sorry, gross, I know). The tune is something that I thought of while I read the lyrics, and its nothing fancy but I think it fits what I wanted this beautiful piece of poetry to become. Hopefully the recording turned out okay because I still haven't figured out the right "mix" for the plug-in of my guitar, so I ignored it and put the mic in front of my guitar while trying to push myself through "crying fingers". I really hope you guys enjoy this beautiful piece of poetry, and I hope that I have not completely ruined it. If anyone wants to REmix this and needs the stems, please tell me<3

Illia, thank you so much for sharing your wonderful words! I find myself scouring your RECords for lyrics because you've been spurting these things like a true hR lyricist! This is the second Text/Lyric piece that I've REmixed from your stuff, and I really hope it won't be the last because I love your stuff. I just hope it doesn't bother you that I'm like a little bug that won't go away! Haha! Thank you again, and I look forward to Collaborating with you in the future! Oh and please don't get cross with me for tweaking and adding some lyrics =] <3

P.S. THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR VERSION TOO, ILLIA, IT'S WONDERFUL! <3

Lyrics:

Wipe the blood off your hands, soldier. 
The war is over, haven't they told you? 
No, my boy, those are not explosions, 
Those are fireworks you hear. 

Why do you cringe? Heal this ill hatred.
So I hacked down a tree you planted, 
The home you built I torched and plundered, 
Robbed the graves that you sealed.

Are you mad that I abused your mother? 
The blood of your friends I smothered? 
The children you raised I slaughtered, too? 
Drank their blood and cheered?  

Wipe the blood of your hands, soldier
The war is over, haven't they told you
Why did we ever start this fighting?
I can't remember. Can you?

Purge the grudge for these things I've done.
I'm just a pawn, not the responsible one. 
They pulled the trigger, I just held the gun.
Now what's done is done. 

Peace is signed - let's forgive each other.
We were enemies, now we're brothers. 
Break your rifle in two. Don't  stutter. 
Let's embrace without fear. 

Wipe the blood off your hands, soldier. 
The war is over, haven't they told you? 
Why don't we just forgive and forget,
Peace is here, peace is here.

Warning: Don't listen to it with earphones, or loud, or rather don't listen to this at all!!! Listen to Bubbabuster's version of the song - it's much much better - http://www.hitrecord.org/records/1309505

Julz - you asked me to post this, so here goes. Don't say I didn't warn you. 

Thank you so very much for the terrific remix! I really love what you've done with the song and consider it the official version. So once you've got a chance to listen to this, chances are I'll end up hiding it. 

Apologize in advance for the poor recording, singing, guitar playing. 

A pic I did for Joab Nevo.  I took one of his RECs of his daughter and gave her Joab's characteristics for fun.  As I said before Joab, I can always do a more 'traditional' portrait illustration...:D

Stella helped me with this:)

Inspired by missamerica's button bumper, thought this could be useful if we ever do anything with childhood/play/etc. It was originally 30 seconds which I thought was too long so I sped it up. If anyone wants the original for any reason, let me know.

This is a remix of the tiny story 'Dreamers' by Sophie Myles (wolf-fucker). I thought this story would look best on an American dollar bill so I scanned one in and remixed away.

Imagine a world where we are paid not with money, but with sleep.

And the richest man on earth would live his life dreaming of the most wonderful things.

This is the "Nuts & Bolts" of something....I was suppose to drop that section with the hiccup on piano. 

Tempo: 127 Bpm

*Don't mind the Rough Mix.
