Tune of the Week:

Something: Paul McCartney / Eric Clapton: Concert For George

I just received this album from my best friend.  I watched this concert on PBS a year ago at least.   If you ever want to experience the most loving tribute to anyone alive or passed go rent or buy this concert. 

Something, a beautiful song on it's on right, starts off as a tender ukulele accompanied Paul McCartney singing, emotionally straining memory of a long friend.

Eric Clapton takes over, pushing it into George's traditional heart stealing guitar solo, into the long-remembered arrangement of the past.

"You're asking me will my love grow
I don't know, I don't know" 

I do ....

 


My instrumental compositions:  in Midi format

Song Lyrics* of the week: 

Welcome to the Occupation : R.E.M, Album: Document

War - Congress - War - Money ... it all comes around and around.

----------

Hang your collar up inside
Hang your dollar on me
Listen to the water still
Listen to the causeway
you are mad and educated
primitive and wild
Welcome to the occupation

Here we stand and here we fight
All your fallen heroes
held and dyed and skinned alive
Listen to the Congress fire
Offering the educated
primitive and loyal
Welcome to the occupation

Hang your collar up inside
Hang your freedom higher
Listen to the buyer still
Listen to the Congress
Where we propagate confusion
Primitive and wild
Fire on the hemisphere below

Sugar cane and coffee cup
Copper, steel and cattle
An annotated history
the forest for the fire
Where we open up the floodgates
Freedom reigns supreme
Fire on the hemisphere below
Listen to me
Listen to me
Listen to me
Listen to me
----------
