new je lyrics

Postby charis » Mon Jun 25, 2012 10:11 am

from facebook...

This is an important part of the creative process that can't be rushed. Here's a recently completed lyric:



Whose Voice Will Not Be Heard

Voices on a reel

Said there is one thing to learn

Always pause before you turn

Caught in devious branches

Whose rustling I’d not heard

Lesson taught but fate is earned

There will not be one

Whose voice will not be heard

Arms will carry us

To hear the voice of God



Fraught with desperation

From the whims of my heart

I have searched to no avail

Having both the need and want

To capture my loss

Wallow blindly in the dark



As always, thanks to you all....

-Ronnie
you inspire me to sing to you...

I can't remember who posted recently asking Ronnie the name of a song and got the reply that the title hadn't been decided yet, but this is that song. And, if you listen to the Autobahn version the verse lyrics are way different, no resemblance whatsoever. The chorus to an extent too! Stoked on these. Glad to see the melancholy back, and things becoming a little less cryptic and indecipherable. This album is going to slay!!

I asked that question after hearing the song on that mild slopes blog.

Well the lyrics have definitely changed from what they were then to what Ronnie sent yesterday. Music wise, we'll find out! I imagine they'll be some new twist, turns and riffs, cause I don't think Ronnie would just simply reproduce the live show on record, but I doubt it'll be drastically differently (i.e different chords altogether and totally new melody). I can't wait!

I have to pull that out again, in fact I need to split them up into tracks some time... because it's hard to remember specific songs from it since they are all so top-notch. :D
(I think the last one is my favorite, though... "Obscurity," right?)

Here it is. You have to download the cassette and the track starts around 1/3 of the way on side B.

Yes the last song was "Obscurity" and you are correct it KILLED! Here's hoping that song ends DMA. It's the perfect ender song in my opinion!!

Okay so what I started work on late 2010 was splitting into tracks proper the original, unedited audio data extracted from the original, unedited video file saved from the original streaming site.

(This flow of original uneditedness is important since the starting audio is not very high quality to begin with. We don't want to degrade it further, but we also don't want to waste space using FLAC or what-have-you when editing the original file is possible)

I've finished up the splitting and I'm working on the naming. From what I remember, and this thread, it looks like the only songs from the set we don't have titles for now are songs seven, eight, and nine. I'm giving seven and eight the unofficial titles "Further Into Light" and "Don't Wait Too Long" for the time being, but I can't make out a word of song nine. Can anyone help with that? I also want to properly tag the show date, anyone remember when (and where) the show took place?

I did all this years ago Jono but havent reuploaded it because I figured since the original ustream link was taken down someone didnt want those songs floating around (probably because they will be on DMA). I was going to wait a few months after DMA was out before I would ask to reupload the bootleg :)

Can someone message me an mp3 of the performance? I don't need the tracks to be separated.

I remember the set audio being uploaded in parts before, but I thought it was in MP3, and I was interested in getting the original audio, which is AAC in this case. And, well, if consensus or Ronnie says "don't spread the show around," that's fine by me, but getting this project done is something I've needed to do for myself for a long time. :D So thanks for the info, lfh. Any ideas for the ninth song? For now I'm calling it "I Don't Know" 'cause that's all I can hear in the chorus. :lol:

Ah, I see! My apologies on the AAC format.

as for song 9? All I could label were about 4 (maybe 5 now) songs and that wasnt one of them. To be honest though track 9 was def one of my favorites from that set. The whole song has a very 70s anime feel to it and that just melts my heart.

I'll listen to the 9th song in a few and try to figure some words out. I'll also post the track list as I know it!

This is what I have thus far:

When Roman Columns Fell
Ice Blankets the Landscape
Ornamental Slopes
Her Solitary Migration
Horse of Faded Grandeur
Let the Past Go
["Further Into Light"]
["Don't Wait Too Long"]
["I Don't Know"]
Whose Voice Will Not Be Heard
Obscurity

(by the way, I realize I've totally hijacked this thread, anyone up for me splitting it?)

You've got exactly what I've got, and all I could make out for the 9th song was "I Don't Know" as well. It sounded like "I don't know, but sometimes..." then it became unintelligble.

I suppose this is very, very relatively speaking. I mean compared to "cup a leaf in part hoods of redwoods, carve me among the pawns " I guess it makes more sense, but compared to "My heart is willing for your love to fill me, though at times I'm guilty, I'm your boy" it's still pig latin. I like it, mind you, it's atmospheric and will probably service the song well. I'm just making conversation. I do agree this album is going to rock, I love basically all the songs from the live set.
