Contemplatively Analizing
New Classic Rock
Been producing 4ever. Just waitin' for Techknowldge to wake up.
Story behind the song
Contemplatively Analizing the dilemma of my selfinflicted broken heart and why my best teacher is lifes anguish. And perhaps studying the rocks and twigs so I can figure out which one to grab first to get out of this rutt of by definition insane mistakes. Huh? so... Locked myself away in a rickety old former convelescent home then recently owned by John and Barbara (Mom & Dad) in a little seaside town called Grassy Sound during the 'off season' of October with my typewriter (remember them?), cassette recorder (remember them?), Penco Acoustic, my dog (KING, imagine that) and enough lunch meat, chips, pepsi and bait to last the month. I was a purest at the time meaning not only no drugs (which was highly suspect at the time) but no aspirin, coffee, alcohol,or anything that would impede or compromise the true creative spirit. It was only after the multitudinous halucinations that I realized the true skytzophreniq in me and decided I best self medicate. More on this later as I still have a couple~o~billion hours of stuff I wanna log before sleep captures me anon.
Lyrics
The Lost Horizon
As mountains change a rivers flow
Still the ocean knows her name
And when she’s damned
Don’t know where to go
She gets cloudy and must rain
And when your mountains crumble
Into your river of dreams
And when your heart is broke in two
Then the truth will set you free
And when you’re scared and running
Don’t you get confused
‘Cause when you’re tired of running
The sun will shine for you
Out on a long, long lost, Horizon
flugle~intermez
And when your towers tumble
The writing on the wall reads:
“Only when your heart is broke in two
Then the truth will set you free”
And when you’re scared and running
Don’t you get confused
‘Cause when you’re tired of running
The sun will shine for you
Out on a long, long lost, Horizon
ba ba vox/flugle~intermez
And the truth will set you free

I listen to the original opening idea and concept and play it back on a good amp and an average pa. It does not grab me because the overall texture, in particular the distortion and guitar overpower the voice and the bedding there is not fair, the progression is a basic one, as in the everly brotheres O'my love, which arrived in many variants from the 60's well done for the musing brass at the end, i like the poetic licence here. I guess there are three problems with this piece for me. 1 The texture is a bit messy' at the distortion. 2. the lead voice needs better production 3 the chord structure is a bit done to death and I think its hard to make a song with such progression work unless another element, like the lyrics or voice is so brilliant that it caries it through. Peace.
