My personal style is Neo-Folk for the New Millennium (!), but i enjoy MANY different kinds of music ranging from Indian (traditional ragas, & the style of the poetry of mystics such as Mirabai & Lala set to music), Middle Eastern (in moderation - but admit to having a soft spot for the Oud!), Mediaeval (e.g. Hildegard von Bingen) thru Renaissance (Dowland, Byrd, Purcell), & Classical (Mozart & Vivaldi are my all-time fave composers BUT Beethoven's 9th, & late violin quartets, are undeniable, plus i really like Bach, too...particularly those astonishing Cello concertos!); some Romantic (Chopin, Mahler), Impressionist (Saint-Saens, Debussy), one or 2 'moderns' of the 20th century (e.g. Britten's magnificent Requiem, Prokofiev's 2nd violin concerto, ditto Bruch's, & most of what i've heard so far from John Tavener & Philip Glass), & jazz (Brecht thru Coltrane), & all the 60s Folk on both sides of 'the Pond' (DYLAN alone makes that trip worthwhile but who can discount Baez & Seeger?), & Brit-Pop (BEATLES forever!!!) which most predominantly influenced my own musical style...'fess up to having a bit of a weakness for '70s rock (e.g. Stones, T-Rex, Pink Floyd, Janis, & Jimi) & 'stuck in the past' so far as the GREAT songwriters of that same decade go (e.g. Carole, Carly, Cat, Neil, Joni, Buffy, Leonard = PHEW!!!)...skip over almost all of the '80s aka 'the worst decade for music in living memory of man (or woman)'!!!..thank heavens for the return of sanity with the new crop of 'Indie' bands & songwriters of the '90s (e.g. Radiohead, Kurt & Eddie & most of what Seattle gave the world...plus on the other side of the Atlantic, Coldplay, U2, Bjork, Peter Gabriel going thru therapy & expressing the results creatively...& with Kate Bush still periodically gifting us with more of her reliably enigmatic & Oh-SO-Artistic musical musings!) - to 'anything GOOD' this century thru today! :)

Abandoned by their mother, rescued from the street by my friend's now-grown-up son, under threat of euthanasia if they didn't pass the evaluation of the Humane Society, then fed, bathed, petted and interminably poop-scooped by me! Adorable and adoptable… :)
Eve & Ke'a-Kitty
Просмотров 189 лет назад
My beloved Ke'a-Kitty got himself killed in the wee hours of this morning of Pearl Harbor Day, under the light of the full moon; he was always fearless - I couldn't 'cure' him of that, no matter how I tried - but his brief life was happy and he lived it as he wanted to…and he was loved unreservedly by me - as he knew, and my love made him happy, strong…but sadly, not wise. He came to me out of ...

Song of Hope (featuring Kea-Kitty!)
Просмотров 1710 лет назад
OK so the singer's WAY above her natural range (!! = 'cause the song's composed for a Soprano whereas the Songwriter/Singer is clearly a Mezzo-cum-Alto)…but worth watching for the kitten, who is adorable &/or SUPER-cute!! :) SONG OF HOPE - sung by Arwen for proposed musical version of Lord of the Rings - imagine it begins by recital of the verse in Elvish spoken over orchestral musical cue/lead...

Opening number of NO-GMO Benefit Concert - August 30th 2013, Hawai'i (...the issue is present-day, the music was mostly flashback to the late '60s'...which was also the median age of the audience - myself excepted...haha!) ;) Fabulous vibe throughout the whole 2 hour show as the energy this kicked off with pretty much shows = continued throughout. Featuring: Graham Nash, David Crosby, Jackson B...

Trauma: I refuse to be defined by anything which makes me a victim - so i fight for what is right. Walking the (painful!) talk through the trauma i sustained, wasn't easy...but it was necessary...so i did it - :) - & this song is about that walk through trauma... ...to heal. Whilst the age-old abuses of one person encouraging another to overly invest in a relationship they then don't follow thr...

Grief is an intense other-worldly journey, but as the song I wrote infers, we must dig deep to find hope - the invisible rope which leads us out of the twilight world of deep sadness, back to a real life of actions, interactions, and purpose. It hurts to love deeply, but life without deep love is meaningless. More people should give more thought to what their words mean in real-life, instead of spinning web-words which have no real-life application, when push comes to shove. Real love is always All or Nothing, and love reaps what it sows, one way or another. Love is forever, but actions are worth so much more than words. After the fathomless hurts and humiliations I sustained, I found hope in faith, and my unassailable belief that I had survived because my life still had purpose. One of the ways forwards was to wean myself off all and any relationships not taking place in real life. The vast fantasy-land of imaginary friendships and romances spawned and supported by the phone, and internet, hold real-life dangers - as I discovered and paid dearly for. And anyway, real love makes a way in real life. I seldom say "I love you" to anyone anymore, and almost never to anyone I'm not able to say it to face-to-face. I know now more than ever before that my love has worth, and magic. Love is the conduit of the Divine, so those who abuse love will always pay a price. Those who honour love can find a way forwards. Amen.
😻❤️
There is a man somewhere really missing out on you I have the feeling.
? ! ;) …judging by his behaviour since, your feeling's right! (But no mo' of my medicine for someone who won't help himself, first - unfortunately…) :( Tho' thx 4 yr supportive thought! :)
No - i'm almost certain, not; tho' he did do a song later on during this same show...
What State are you in, Eve? I absolutely cannot tell. Loving your music, so far, btw. Good stuff.
Power to the Peaceful. Respect from Michigan. Be well Eve. Your new Friend, DON
@detroitMC313 Thx = NICE of u 2 think & say so...!
BEAUTIFUL!!! you have a gift.
@Bluesdivine - but OF COURSE i put u/yr name in the tags (='duh'!!); couldn't have done THAT quality of recording w/out u, 4 that budget & in those conditions...so thx, again! Have had lots of gr8 feedback 2 this version of my song, btw...the video is only so-so LOL (= very limited technology @ my disposal on that side of things!), but nice of u 2 b nice about it anyway! BTW will be in the studio 4 the 1st time w/Michael Ruff next week, very much looking 4wards 2 that! Glad all going well w/u!!
Hi Eve ! Great video and song sounds lovely ! I got linked to this ...maybe you put my name on the tags . Anyway thanks , and I hope all is well . Philippo
@ojms97 ...the voice is me! Thx! (btw my motivation for becoming a 'serious' songwriter (b/c i'd written a few songs since age 5 w/out thinking about it @ all) was that i wanted songs to sing which expressed what i was feeling = it was that simple! I remember making that conscious choice when i was around 13/going thru puberty hell haha, dissatisfiedly going thru my repertoire of songs & annoyed b/c none of them 'said' what i was feeling @ the time; flash of inspiration hit me - 'Write 'em!' ;)
who is the voice?? awesome
@gitaclick ...U r correct; he is! Did i write Romanian?!? Really?!? I DO know the difference, so that was a complete brain-fog on my part! Let me correct myself. Apologies!
...i've just sent them 2 u = u r welcome! ;)
Thx!
...whaddya wanna know? ;) There's already a wealth of information from really successful songwriters out there, so i'm not sure there are any tips i can specifically give U which they can't/haven't already...but thx 4 asking anyway! & thx 4 checking out my song!
Hey thx!!! ;) U can get the song from my Zebox website; RUclips won't let me type the url here, but the link is posted on my main page just underneath my photo; the song is on the main page @ Zebox when U scroll down, or/also on the Music page @ the bottom.
...oh cackles 2 that = EVERY1 has influence, nobody is totally w/out it...even people in the most dire of circumstances (e.g. homeless, or sick folks) have SOME influence; the key 2 'being dangerous' is understanding that being a child of God gives ALL of us power beyond the personal = period...yeah yeah i knwo that's 'deep' & easier said than done; but it explains soooo much about amazing 'impossible' things people have done = they aligned w/the Divine, limitless source of influence.... ;)
...well, 0 doubt about it = whether aural, visual, oral - etc, good health IS a blessing...the gr8st asset any of us have, i believe - but as 4 U coppin' out by saying i already said EVERYTHING there is 2 say about the subject of my song = blaugh bah humbug HA O Hen fox got yr beak/U can't do better than that cackle cluck!!??!!! ;)
CLUCK U r hilarious O Hen...all U do is notice the photos, not the song haha cackle LOL!!!!! ;) ...definitely U r PRIMARILY visual vs. aural = 4 sure... !!! ...i reckon i've run out of photos so 'famous last words', this'll be the last o' my slideshows...next up, it's x 2 take the plunge & get a couple o' videos, right?! Tho' my 1st b-friend got in touch again & he has a STASH of ol' photos of me (most v. artsy & good!) but gawd knows where he's stashed/hidden 'em from his new wife...tee-hee?!
...yeah O Hen i did!! ;) = felt it was x 2 pull down the amateur/1st recording & put up the mo' polished version instead, since there'd been SO many mo' hits 2 it than i'd ever imagined... from viewers world-wide...which amazed me!!! (Of course, that doesn't mean this improved version will get that kind of attention, 2 - cackle!!! But just in case....i decided 2 offer something which showcased my song a bit better.)
His name is Hamilton Dixon & his birthday is exactly one day after mine! What d'ya mean, what's THAT got 2 do w/it?!...hmmm....well just that we seem 2 think alike in lots of similar ways - only he says it all in a Southern drawl while i do mine in my Brit-clip... ;) ...just joking! = he's an artiste - like me - & so is his lovely & charming wife, Carly...heck, U know us artsy types tend 2 be on the same page w/'stuff' = creative ideas/ worldview/whatever...so yeah it just gelled, i guess!
i agree, this moodier version is much more apropos 2 a vampire movie...but it wasn't what the director envisaged, so i had 2 adapt it...radically! ;) ...yes, that Cat Stevens song DID inspire the name of my darling cat-child!!! Being the full moon 2nite reminds me of how she lived up 2 her name by always going out when the moon was full & sitting under it in some secretive cat-contemplation = adorable creature that she was...
'MAHALO', Ladies/long-time friends/family/fans!!! ;)
...hmmm, well...2 uploads later & unfortunately, MUCH has been 'lost in translation' so far as this video-transfer-2-UTube goes = 2 bad... ;) ...it looks pretty cool on my laptop (really!!!)...maybe U can enjoy it anyway (here's hopin'...)
