Haiku As Song

I'm drifting alone
on the long rolling waters
I feel so at home.

I stand here dying
And mother earth is crying
I know my place now.

Last one of my kind
Stories ring true about me
I must not cry now.

Tomorrow is late
Today is just another
I lost all my days.

Too much shame in blame
I will accept my own part
Leave nothing to chance.

I'm walking a line
Suspended in space and time.
Who, where, what am I?

One day the world will
see it's ways are cruel and sad.
The light will come back.

My fav song of you singing vBabe. Great work all of you three :)

[vamosbabe]

TY Kris :-) It's true that it's not as trippy and "free-style" as the Led Zep ones. :-P

[booradleysstuntman]

Ahhhh! The Next Time is here! Definitely a better take & mix. Your perserverence prevailed, VB.

So, with the 2 Haikus, Pascal recorded his part 1st, then you added the vocals? or vice versa?

Beautiful...again...in both similar & different ways.

[vamosbabe]

No, actually:

1. voice to ww

2. music done according to the voice

3. re-recording of the voice with music in my ears but capturing the voice alone to send to ww for the mix. :-)

whereas "Summertime" was our first collab with ww's doing the music first and then me adding the voice. :-)

[Jive51]

Pascal is... Hmmm... He is music!

[vamosbabe]

Yes! :-)) He's so much music.
