A few days on the coastal wilderness of BC inspired this folk waltz fantasy about a naming ceremony (for the daughter I never had!) Another Name For The Moon Another Name For The Moon lantern moon lonely moon once human face we wait `til you rise in the water whisper one word to keep a child safe always and today watch over our newborn daughter high crying loon sends shivers down the sky her eyes follow so old so young what should we name this quiet girl framing the stars with her tiny finger and thumb soon soon the canoes will come greet our wide eye daughter choose choose say the paddle and drum another name for the moon shining in silent water jump ever higher grab fistfuls of cloud dive deep hear the song of the fishes laughter and stories old and strange as the once human face we ask now to grant all your wishes soon soon the canoes will come greet a wide eye daughter choose choose say the paddle and drum another name for the moon shining in silent water choose choose say the paddle and drum another name for the moon shining in silent water © Robert Cordrey Jan. 2019 Style is _SEDATE.STY (Sedate Celtic Waltz Trio) RealTracks in style: 3268:Cello, Background CelticWaltzNatalie Ev 100 RealTracks in style: 3288:Guitar, Nylon, Fingerpicking CelticWaltz Ev 100 RealTracks in style: 3287:Guitar, 12-String Acoustic, Fingerpicking CelticWaltz Ev 100 RealTracks in song: 2774:Harp, Rhythm CelticWaltzSlow Ev 085 Loops :bodhran, ankle bells, cymbals

Robert ...
You have a way with words that I seriously envy. And your uniquely wonderful voice is such a pleasure to listen to. Simply lovely!
Also, the widely panned vocal harmony on the choruses was so nice! Best to you. Take care ...

Poetic, mystic and delicate lyrics, you have really captured the beauty of nature. Beautiful melody and chords fitting the mood.
Excellent instrumentation, the jaw harp (not mentioned in the list) and the percussive loops created lovely images of water and canoeing, the cello is used nicely to add some darker contrast.
Great vocals with very nice color in your voice, I enjoyed especially the harmonies.

It has a brilliant Towns Van Zandt vibe. Both Lyrics and music. He is one of my very favorites.
And it gets more hypnotic as you listen.
Well done!

Cool listen! I could have sworn I heard a jaw harp hidden in the instrumentation. Nice imagery, good match with the instruments. Take a trip, get a song - pretty sweet deal!

You are that rare thing: an artist and a poet. Sensitivity at its maximum, once more, from you. Absolutely stunning and so delicate.

The percussion part of the band was fun- loops having to be doctored to fit 3/4. Thanks for listening and commenting. Poetic, mystic and delicate lyrics, you have really captured the beauty of nature. Beautiful melody and chords fitting the mood.

Janne, Yes, there is a jaws harp. Its encouraging to hear that the natural images connect through the song- I`m not a regular wilderness guy, but it only takes a day for immersion to be felt on the unspoilt parts of the coast here. Delicate and pretty.Wonderful write.
Most enjoyable.Rob4580 Thanks very much, Rob! It has a brilliant Towns Van Zandt vibe. Both Lyrics and music. He is one of my very favorites.

Well done! Thank you; I`m also a Townes fan. Robert

Lovely piece but the serenity, for me, is interrupted by what sound like edit point clicks and squelches. I know these could be string noise or even mouth noises but they seem to be something else.
The bells & other decorative bits seem very bright and forward in the left channel.
Listening passed those things it's a lovely piece.
Cheers

Ray,
Finger squeaks & string buzzes are a feature of the nylon guitar track ( makes no difference how many times its generated)- it was still the best pairing with the harp.
There`s some mouth noise with the jaws harp to add to that.... what can I say, its folk music!
Thanks for getting past the irritants.
Robert

Robert, your imagery as in all your songs would make a terrific video.
But even in that absence it is so vivid that the listener can create their own.
The simple backing with the prominent cello is well chosen and mixed for your vocal and the theme.
Even though not directed to a child Janice felt that it makes for a sweet lullaby.
Nicely done indeed.

Regards,
Leon Thank you,Leon! Had listen to this on the headphones last night and today on the monitors. Very cool tune Robert. Loved the lyric and super vocal. Well done Scott, I appreciate those plays and your thumbs up. Doing the folk tunes keeps me a little grounded and rests the vocal chords for the next Spirit Level outing! Cool listen! I could have sworn I heard a jaw harp hidden in the instrumentation. Nice imagery, good match with the instruments. Take a trip, get a song - pretty sweet deal! David, I should change that header to include the jaw harp. A trip without a song? Not allowed! Thanks for your listen and comments. Love the intimate vocal in this one, Robert. Really like the way you mixed in the harmonies during the chorus! Just a lovely song, enjoyed very much That`s very kind, Dave- thank you! Robert
