Allegro, thank you so much -- gave me chills on multiple levels. That's a keeper for my desert island.

    LYRICS.
    Someway, baby, it’s part of me, apart from me"
    You’re laying waste to Halloween
    You fucked it, friend, it’s on its head, it struck the street
    You’re in Milwaukee, off your feet

    And at once I knew I was not magnificent
    Strayed above the highway aisle
    (Jagged vacance, thick with ice)
    I could see for miles, miles, miles

    3rd and Lake, it burnt away, the hallway
    Was where we learned to celebrate
    Automatic bought the years you’d talk for me
    That night you played me ‘Lip Parade’
    Not the needle, nor the thread, the lost decree
    Saying nothing, that’s enough for me

    And at once I knew I was not magnificent
    Hulled far from the highway aisle
    (Jagged vacance, thick with ice)
    I could see for miles, miles, miles

    Christmas night, it clutched the light, the hallow bright
    Above my brother, I and tangled spines
    We smoked the screen to make it what it was to be
    Now to know it in my memory

    And at once I knew I was not magnificent
    High above the highway aisle
    (Jagged vacance, thick with ice)
    I could see for miles, miles, miles

Oh. I see. Our notes then may be comparable, ninakat.

Only earlier today, I remembered a production from the labs of JWs; the video posted last September reveals a boy’s explorations of things too commonly unappreciated, I would say.

    In the life of every man, there is a time
    of boyhood—a time when he is intensely aware
    of his environment and his reactions to it are
    uniquely his own. quoted from the video, below

    What the fulk is filk?, I ask, unobtrusively!

    Mr. Drew, Thank you for all contributions of music
    I’ve not begun to imagine. And, you could imagine
    how true that is :) .

    Please allow a moment of nervy impulse from
    one who’s posting his first filk :mrgreen: :lol: :lol:...

I'm diggin' my '70's handlebar moustache and john lennon mirrored gold rim shades right now.

Far out man!

Does anyone remember the character Mandala from Zenith?

I like to dream yes, yes, right between my sound machine
On a cloud of sound I drift in the night
Any place it goes is right
Goes far, flies near, to the stars away from here

Well, you don't know what we can find
Why don't you come with me little girl
On a magic carpet ride
You don't know what we can see
Why don't you tell your dreams to me
Fantasy will set you free
Close your eyes girl
Look inside girl
Let the sound take you away

Last night I held Aladdin's lamp
And so I wished that I could stay
Before the thing could answer me
Well, someone came and took the lamp away
I looked around, a lousy candle's all I found

Well, you don't know what we can find
Why don't you come with me little girl
On a magic carpet ride
Well, you don't know what we can see
Why don't you tell your dreams to me
Fantasy will set you free
Close your eyes girl
Look inside girl
Let the sound take you away.

looks like you got the idea Allegro :) :thumbsup

it's not easy to find though :shrug:
it does come from a tradition of, shall we say, non-professional musicians, but there are gems to be found.

Listening to Volbeat. My cousin lent me a CD and said it was addictive.

Addictive it is.
Born we are the same, within the silence, indifference be Thy name
Torn we walk alone, we sleep in silent shades
The grandeur fades, the meaning never known- 'Born' Nevermore
