The Ballad Of Jack Doolan - Warren Mars (Bendigo)
This is the true story of Jack Doolan, the person who is named as "The Wild Colonial Boy". His real life is completely different from the famous song and after finding out about it I rewrote the song to tell his sad story.
I apologise for the out of focus camerawork and the intrusion of my music stand into the frame. I don't know what went wrong but I have to do everything myself so I guess I was concentrating on performing the song rather than checking the camerawork...
0:00 Intro
1:41 Song
You can find the details online in the Bendigo Advertiser or you can just go and read Paul Slade's retelling of the story uncovered by Granville Allen Mawer.

Wayfaring Stranger (Mars Version) - Warren Mars (Troopers Creek)
Просмотров 9114 дней назад
It's been a while since I've been out in the bush with my hat on in the warm but my trusty ute is back in action and I drove it to Trooper's Creek in the Northern Grampians and decided to record this famous old American folk song. I wrote the last verse... 0:00 Intro 1:01 Song
On The Nickel - Warren Mars
Просмотров 3721 день назад
I thought I'd have a go at Tom Waits' classic: On The Nickel. It's very challenging, with 3 different keys: Gb, Ab & Bb and a vocal range of 2.3 octaves. I knew there would be a few pauses but I love the song so I just went for it! No editing or overdubs, no pitch correction, just some compression on the vocal.
Flower's Grave - Warren Mars
Просмотров 27Месяц назад
This is my cover of Tom Waits & Kathleen Brennan's song from 2002: Flower's Grave. I love the song, it's simple but satisfying and great on the piano! One take, no overdubs, no backing track, no pitch correction, some compression on the vocal. 2 mics on the piano, 1 on the voice and two cameras. Audio mixed in Adobe Audition. Video assembled with Shotcut.
The Mounds Of Mundburg - The Martian Pipes & Drums
Просмотров 1402 месяца назад
This is my setting of Tolkien's words from "The Battle Of Pelennor Fields" from "The Return Of The King", arranged for pipe band. I didn't set it in my first tranche of LOTR songs as I felt that alliterative verse was somewhat impenetrable and the lack of a steady meter I deemed too difficult. That was in 2002. In 2019 I had grown as a composer and I was ready to tackle the more difficult poems...
Salute To Eorl The Young - The Martian Pipes & Drums
Просмотров 3952 месяца назад
Way back in 2002 when I was writing my first tranche of the songs from The Lord Of The Rings, I came up with my setting of "Lament For Eorl The Young", the words for which you can find in "The Two Towers" in the chapter: "The King Of The Golden Hall". I loved the song immediately but it really came into it's own when I produced the orchestral arrangement which included a bagpipe salute between ...
A Man Like Me - Warren Mars (Cape Nelson)
Просмотров 462 месяца назад
A song about the semi-taboo feeling older men get sometimes around younger women. We're not supposed to be attracted to people a generation below BUT it happens all the same... This song is built on "Crooked Tree" written by Molly Tuttle and Melody Walker in 2022. You can check out the original here: ruclips.net/video/9zIlaJ-RroQ/видео.html 0:00 Intro 1:50 Song
Carry Me Back To East Kentucky (piano and vocal version) - Warren Mars
Просмотров 482 месяца назад
I made a guitar and vocal video of this song first and finally, here is my piano version. I have been trying for over a month to get this song down on the piano and after an insane number of takes I have finally got a decent version! Whew! I really love this song. It has something special about it... ISWC: T-325943840-5
Love Minus Zero (Maths version) - Warren Mars (Cape Bridgewater)
Просмотров 763 месяца назад
I was listening to Bob Dylan's "Love Minus Zero (No Limit)", which, like many of Bob's most charismatic songs doesn't really mean anything but just sounds good, when I started asking myself a number of questions: What does the title mean in mathematical terms? Is it even correct? What would I have to do to it to make it correct? Can I write an equation for love that might actually be true and k...
Carry Me Back To East Kentucky (guitar version) - Warren Mars
Просмотров 864 месяца назад
I'd been watching RUclips vids about East Kentucky, (the poorest place in the USA), and the Appalachian dialect and I decided to write a song about all those people that left the drug-ridden poverty of this special place to seek their fortune in the big cities of the north-west. This is a really complex song and a little different from my usual style. I guess you could say I was inspired at the...
I Am Australian - Warren Mars (Portland)

To honour ANZAC Day I have done my version of Bruce Woodley and Dobe Newton's great song. My version adds verses about suburban life and war to their wonderful verses about our history, iconic figures and natural environment. Hoping for a great game of footy this arvo!

A Welder's Life - Warren Mars (Portland)

As mentioned in the clip this is the life of Brian Walters, (aka Barney), from the time he began his apprenticeship in Portland to the time of his divorce. I wrote most of the words but Brian wrote the line: "Filling cracks with good penetration"... Every boilermaker's ideal! The music is Bruce Springsteen's "The River".

Look Out Below (Australian goldrush song) - Warren Mars (Ballarat)
Просмотров 2306 месяцев назад
This fantastic old Australian song about an Englishman who comes to Ballarat for the gold was written by Charles Robert Thatcher in 1855. It is at least partially autobiographical as Thatcher himself came out from Bristol in search of the yellow ore. Thatcher was moderately famous as a singer and he toured around Australia and New Zealand giving concerts with his wife Annie Day (aka Lydia Howar...
The Wild Colonial Boy - Warren Mars (Castlemaine)
Просмотров 1066 месяцев назад
There is considerable disagreement about the subject of this famous Australian folk song dating from the 1860s but the police record shows that a would-be-bushranger operating in central Victoria at the time was known as Jack Doolan and was born in Castlemaine, Victoria. Most of the song however does not match his life but better matches the careers of Jack Donohue and also Harry Power, so it i...
The Eumeralla Shore - Warren Mars (Codrington)
Просмотров 807 месяцев назад
I drove down to Codrington in SW Victoria today to the Eumeralla River to record this famous old Australian folk song which is a sarcastic dig at the policy of "free selection" and its proponent "Jack Robertson", introduced in the 1860s. The Eumeralla River is a small river at the best of times and dry through most of its course during early Autumn as it doesn't rain here over summer. Despite t...

    • @hexagonal6000
      @hexagonal6000 3 месяца назад

      This image presents a mathematical and philosophical interpretation of love as a function of care. Here's a breakdown of the key elements: The function is defined as Love(x), where x represents care. The graph shows Love(x) as a wavy, generally increasing function. This suggests that as care increases, love tends to increase, but not in a perfectly linear way. The y-axis is labeled Love(x) at the top and Hate(x) at the bottom, implying that hate is the opposite of love on this scale. The function is defined for all x, meaning it exists across the entire range of care (both positive and negative). There's a note that "Love(x) ~ care", indicating that love is approximately proportional to care. The bottom of the image includes a mathematical limit expression: Love - ε < lim(x→a) Love(x) < Love + ε if a-δ < x < a+δ This is a formal mathematical definition of the continuity of the Love function at point a, suggesting that love changes smoothly with small changes in care. Overall, this function represents love as a continuous, generally increasing function of care, with some fluctuations. It suggests that while more care generally leads to more love, the relationship isn't perfectly linear and can vary. The inclusion of hate on the negative side of the y-axis implies that a lack of care could lead to negative feelings or hate.

      As you are no doubt aware: I took liberties with Schubert's score in my adaptation. I assigned a program to the piece with details that you are not aware of. I had good reason to alter his dynamics and I don't resile from my changes, nor from any of my many liberties. If you ever read my score with my program details and instructions you will understand why I did what I did. In my setting Schubert is pleading his case with God for more time, a plea that is vehemently denied! There is a lot of story going on behind the scenes. Hopefully one day I will publish it...

  • @garrysmodsketches
    @garrysmodsketches 10 месяцев назад

    F minor section: just a bunch of arpeggios + Schubert's melody. Doesn't convey the character of the original. 😒 Although in fairness, I imagine it would be very difficult to make a playable piano version that does that.

    A lovely little gem of a song, with a touch of Percy Grainger about it. I can just imagine Bilbo Baggins staring into the fire and reminiscing about his adventures as a young hobbit (and his hand stealing to his ring finger every so often).
