Well, better late than never. This is absolutely immense. So sumptuous, you can dive right in and let it enfold you. It's a masterpiece, you two talented fellows.

Has the Beatles touch to my ears - with Brian May on lead guitar!

Love it, my friend.

oh, here another one - makes me think (and is a good thing ;-). Happy to hear from Jarle ! very good song, and a lot of interesting sounds there

[Geir]

I'm not sure you need to explain the lyrics for me - it speaks stuff to me anyway.... oh go on then, I'm intrigued.

When we posted this we didn't explain it so that everyone could have their own experience of it. Now I feel the time is right.

This weekend it was a year since my brother lost his beautiful 10 year old girl. And this song (as many of his songs this last year) is about that.  And it's about the 7 kids that got a second chance because of her death. My brother and his wife did an amazing thing in the horrible tragedy that struck them. They unselfishly put other kids lifes ahead of their own grief and donated the organs of their beloved daughter to kids who needed it. As a consequence of that 7 kids got a chance to grow up.

I'm telling this not only to honor the memory of my niece or to praise my brother and his wife, but most of all in hope that we all will think this through for ourself and talk to our close ones, yes even the kids, about this. I know that there's many different approches to organ donations around the world so I won't post any links. But I do encourage you all to register as an organ donor if that's an option where you live.

Thanks for listening.
