So it's been a while. Motherhood caught up with me and left me little time for recreational activities, even though music is much more than recreational for me. It's a life necessity. While I was gone I had the absolute pleasure of discovering Ulrich Schnauss. He plays around with a rainbow of vibrations....taking you from melancholy to triumph in the blink of an eye. The song Goodbye was the first one I heard and it left a permanent impression on me. It made me think of what it would feel like to transition from this world to the next. It made me think of all the things that surround us that we can't see...(yet) Another song I fell for is Monday Paracetamol. What an atmospheric masterpiece. All of his songs are very atmospheric and beautiful. If you are looking for a unique electroinic mastermind with shoegazer undertones...check him out. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
I have been a fan of Toad the Wet Sprocket since I was a tween. A few of my favorite songs back then were; All I Want, Walk on the Ocean, Hold Her Down and Fall Down. In my adult years, I still love all of those song, of course, but I am drawn to a whole new set of songs, as well. There are many I love that will make an appearance here, but, today, I am just going to mention one. Stories I Tell.
This melancholy and somewhat haunting tune is music to my ears, filled with great lyrics and awesome guitar solos! Glen Phillips just has this way with his voice that is very soothing to the soul and can improve your day immediately!! I know you will enjoy this as much as I have!!! (Lyrics below video)
"Stories I Tell"
Don't give me answers for I would refuse "yes" is a word for which I have no use And I wasn't looking for heaven or hell Just someone to listen to stories I tell
Now what is a blessing and what is a dream Caught between portraits and none's what it seems And why is it people expect there's a change When I feel I'm a part of something I can't see I feel the same
Now don't ask me questions or I will retreat Fame is a cancer and ego its seed Now I wasn't looking for heaven or hell Just someone to listen to stories I tell
Do we ever wonder? And do you ever care...
Subtle salvation in poems we know Hiding our heads in a shadow of home Now I wasn't looking for wreaths or for bells Just someone to listen to stories I tell Stories I tell
The word Eargasm is a fairly accurate description for this song!!! I first heard this group's remake of the Gorillaz song "Crystalised" and had to listen for more!!! Romy Madley Croft and Oliver Sim's voices sound like they were made to for each other. Give it a listen and see what you think. Also, I have decided to start posting all of the music that I have listened to that got me to this point. That will be everything from Ella Fitzgerald to Type O Negative...plus all my new favorites. So stay tuned. Enjoy!
Infinity
After all the time After you Had you seen me with someone new Hanging so high for your return But the stillness is a burn
Had I seen it in your eyes There'd have been no try after try Your leaving had no goodbye Had I just seen one in your eyes
I can't give it up To someone elses touch Because I care too much [x2]
Could you tell I was left lost and lonely Could you tell Things ain't worked out my way
Wish the best for you Wish the best for me Wished for infinity If that ain't me
Give it up I can't give it up [x2]
I can't give it up To someone elses touch Because I care too much [x2]
This song jumps in to my head at any time of the day. Lately, I find my daydreams drifting towards my salvation...my divinity. As I become more and more aware of the illusion that I am living in, I find myself welcoming these extraordinary changes towards my evolution....humanity's evolution!!
We are beings of free will....of polarity, in this Third density. Instead of trying to pen point all of the good and bad guys, I find myself having faith that everyone is doing exactly as they should be.
Sending love to all of the souls and beings on the planet. Who am I to decide who and who doesn't deserve love....EVERYONE does!!!! When we realize this as a whole we will move on to our real lives.
I once read a story similar to the one below:
A group of angels, in the same soul group, are sitting around planning their next incarnations. (and having a great time with it)
They each will be volunteering to play very specific roles.
When it came to the sinister politician's role no one stepped up, until finally an angel stepped forward...one of the BRAVEST of the brave!
He said "I will do it, but just promise me one thing. Promise me that you'll tell me you love me!"
One of the other angels said "You know we love you!"
The brave one said "I know.... and I you, my friend, but you have to remember. When I go to Earth to take this role, I will be hated, surrounded by negativity, and ridiculed constantly. I will submerge myself so fully in this role that I might never remember who I truly am, unless you remind me and tell me you love me!"
Could looking at the universe from this perspective be exactly what we need to move on to our divine inheritance?
This songs lyrics remind us to "JUST REMEMBER!" Remember why you are here..... believe it or not but you CHOSE to be on this Earth at this very moment for this glorious transformation. And not only that but you took great care planning this incarnation for that reason!
I hope you enjoy!!!
Feeling the past moving in Letting a new day begin Hold to the time that you know
You don't have to move on to let go
Add to the memory you keep Remember when you fall asleep Hold to the love that you know You don't have to give up to let go
Remember turning on the night And moving through the morning light Remember how it was with you Remember how you pulled me through
I remember, I remember I remember, I remember I remember, I remember I remember, I remember
Feeling the past moving in Letting a new day begin Hold to the time that you know You don't have to move on to let go
Add to the memory you keep Remember when you fall asleep Hold to the love that you know You don't have to give up to let go
Remember how it was with you Remember how it was with you
I remember
Feeling the past moving in Letting a new day begin Hold to the time that you know You don't have to move on to let go
Add to the memory you keep Remember when you fall asleep Hold to the love that you know You don't have to give up to let go
Remember turning on the night And moving through the morning light Remember how it was with you Remember how you pulled me through
I remember, I remember I remember, I remember I remember, I remember I remember, I remember
Today's song is.... Right in Two by Tool! The lyrics of this song say it all.
Free will was given to us by our Creator....half of us chose to do good and the other half chose to take advantage of the first half by creating a fake reality full of lies and deceit. Most of us have spent lifetimes waking up to this fact and some of us still have a ways to go. The good news is that we will all get there in time!! The weird news is that the half that chose to take advantage, are only playing their own part in the great awakening of humanity. It took me MUCH time to realize this, because for the longest time I wanted to despise them. There are still times when I struggle with it but I choose not to focus on it The light will always win over the dark and that is just Truth! Please read the lyrics and enjoy!
Tool- Right in Two Lyrics
Angels on the sideline, Puzzled and amused. Why did Father give these humans free will? Now they're all confused.
Don't these talking monkeys know that Eden has enough to go around? Plenty in this holy garden, silly monkeys, Where there's one you're bound to divide it. Right in two.
Angels on the sideline, Baffled and confused. Father blessed them all with reason. And this is what they choose. And this is what they choose...
Monkey killing monkey killing monkey Over pieces of the ground. Silly monkeys give them thumbs, They forge a blade, And where there's one they're bound to divide it, Right in two. Right in two.
Monkey killing monkey killing monkey. Over pieces of the ground. Silly monkeys give them thumbs. They make a club. And beat their brother, down. How they survive so misguided is a mystery.
Repugnant is a creature who would squander the ability to lift an eye to heaven conscious of his fleeting time here.
Cut and divide it all right in two [x4]
Fight over the clouds, over wind, over sky Fight over life, over blood, over prayer, overhead and light Fight over love, over sun, over another, Fight for each other, for the ones who are rising.
Angels on the sideline again. Benched along with patience and reason. Angels on the sideline again Wondering when this tug of war will end.
Cut and divide it all right in two [x3] RIGHT IN TWO!
This song struck a cord with me ....as I was awakening and becoming aware of the many traps for me to fall in or for humanity to fall in actually.... I hear THEY BOTH SEE THE TRAPS.... LET IT COME AND LET IT BE....Every single day there will be tests....it's how you choose to handle them that matters. Once you become able to identify them they are easier to spot and prepare for;) or sometimes there is a need to just let it be....We could all use a good dose of living in the moment...in the NOW! Enjoy!
Let it Be Lyrics
All she’s got is the way he looks
Many miles on the other side He had overheard her choice And he delved off her cliffside
Sacrifice he just wants to help Holds the world like a baby Takes his mask off and lulls his head Then she sees him in the screen
They both see the traps No fool, Oh oh They won’t go back No fool, Oh oh They’ve got a mind track No fool, Oh oh It’s all a mystery Let it come and let it be
Oh oh
They both see the traps No fool, Oh oh They won’t go back No fool, Oh oh They’ve got a mind track No fool, Oh oh It’s all a mystery Let it come and let it be
Let it come and let it be
They both see the traps No fool, Oh oh They won’t go back No fool, Oh oh They’ve got a mind track No fool, Oh oh It’s all a mystery Let it come and let it be
I have a two year old.....enough said. Hear you go Lovies....another Bjork song to spark your interest.
Undo is the name of the song . It makes me think of undoing all of the mess humanity has done. It makes me feel like rebuilding with harmony this time around....and taking time to stop and love our mother earth. The other day as I was driving, I was so in awe of the way the light looked around the fluffy clouds that I ALMOST bumped someone...but I didn't. Thankfully! I find myself being effortlessly drawn to nature.....please enjoy! Listen to the lyrics......Life is not meant to be a struggle.....uphill.
"Undo"
It's not meant to be a strife It's not meant to be a struggle uphill Oh I
It's not meant to be a strife It's not meant to be a struggle uphill Oh I
You're trying too hard Surrender Give yourself in You're trying too hard You're trying too hard, ah
It's not meant to be a strife It's not meant to be a struggle uphill Sweetly It's not meant to be as dry To enjoy It's not meant to be a stuggle uphill Oh I
It's warmer now Lean into it Unfold Unfold in a generous way Surrender
It's not meant to be as dry (surrender) It's not meant (undo) to be a struggle uphill (undo) It's not meant to be as dry It's not meant to be a struggle uphill
I'm praying To be In a generous mode The kindness kind The kindness kind To share Me To share me
It's not meant to be as dry It's not meant to be a struggle uphill
It's not meant to be as dry It's not meant to be a struggle uphill
Undo Undo If you're bleeding Undo And if you're sweating Undo If you're crying, darling Undo
