about

Late one night, tired and about to go to bed, I was playing around with open tunings on my guitar and found a 3-chord run that deeply moved me. I quickly set up a voice recorder, and then just played the pattern over and over and sung whatever came to mind; stream of consciousness style.

What you hear before you is a refinement of that moment; played on keys rather than guitar, and a few of the lyrics have been tweaked or shuffled around to better fit the meter, but it's largely unchanged.

Diana Radha Rani Bradley added her beautiful voice in just 2 takes during a very busy recording session when she visited a few weeks later (wish you didn't live 1000km away!), and that's me half-speaking-half-singing as well. Spinging, perhaps?

I had no idea when I put this to tape that it would end up as an 11-minute epic; it's very chilled, and really a poem about and to Love. Not romantic love, but the essence of Love- call it God, call it the Self, or the soul, whatever you like. It's the deepest part of everything we are; the most precious gift within all of us, revealed if we only care to look.

The greatest is Love :-)

lyrics

A new day dawns
on everyone.
Who knows
what it brings?
We spend
so much energy
chasing after
ephemeral things…

Yet Inside
There is love.
Inside
There is Love.

How do we miss
each moment?
A baby’s cry
or a lover’s smile.
Thinking things will
be better when...
But it’s only now
and here
that we find

Inside
There is Love.

We have
so many questions;
We don’t know
Who asks.
We don’t know
who lives this life;
A few seasons
and it’s passed
(but look and you’ll see)

Inside
There is Love.

Sometimes our hearts
feel broken;
I guess all hearts break
one day.
And so I’ll live
each moment
Whatever comes
my way.


Cause inside
There is Love.

Inside
there is Love
for everyone.
Cause
inside everyone
is Love.

So I thank
the invisible
For everything
I see.
This life is changing
constantly
the only constant
is Me.

And inside
I am Love.

Om Namo Shivay
There is Love.

Jay jay Maa
There is Love.
