This is one of my all time favourite Songcrafter song's, Tharek you are a genius brother
Jim I do not know how you sang this live, I have had half a dozen takes, I think this is OK, and hope to God I have not murdered it too much!

the original posted version is here, have a listen if you have not heard it, as it is just stunning! Jim, Geir, Flash, hats off gentlemen!

Finally, my thoughts are with you Tharek, and my thanks for letting me cover a wonderful song.

Something Silent

Words and music by Tharek Mokbul

Something silent reachin' in
From the moment it begins
Let's you think the edge is middle ground
And nothin' wins the day

Stunnin' souls rest immunized
Against the fibres of this life
From the light that tries to creep on in
But not the coldest night

Nothin' left inside the shell
Just the armour left to tell
What was here before and nothin' more
These wares are yet to sell

This ain't life as we prescribed
All the beats have passed us by
Still we seek a note to lead us on
A stick to keep our time

Screamin' soundless rage inside
What you feel is what you hide
I will call again another day
When you can hear your cries

Stubburn stains revealed inside
Takes the sparkle from their eyes
Never seen, so we can't clean them up
Or burn them in the fire

Nothin' left inside the shell
Just the armour left to tell
Who I was here before and nothin' more
These wares are yet to sell

Secret safe reclusive isle
Sunless shores roll intertwined
With icy seas that came on in
And won't go out again

Stop, succeed, renew, ignite
Make your mind up, stand and fight
Feed the power back into your life
A fire blazin' bright

Nothin' left inside the shell
Just the armour left to tell
Who I was here before and nothin' more
These wares are yet to sell
These wares are yet to sell
These wares are yet to sell
These wares are yet to sell

A mighty song to take on Andy. This is one of my favourite ever Songcrafter tunes, and have to say that you have done a stunning job with this. Jim's vocal on the original was incredible, but you have matched this in your own way, and love how you kick in straight away with it...no messin about!

As soon as it finished I instantly hit play again...this is the real deal!

[64Guitars]

Such a great song! I love the Met Norway version. I love the Easy London version by Tharek, Owen, and launched. And I love this version too. Well done.
