Fire Up My Imagination by The Scolars (Geoff,jg./Kari) violin by Bruno

[Redler]

Hello!

On one day I was browsing song sketches of an old SD card and started modify a draft to a new song. I think the final result was close to a jazzy tune.

I sent the instrumental track to Geoff to asking him write lyric and sing. I listened to the instrumental track and I felt it needs something. Then I remembered a great violin player! I posted the track to Bruno and he did excelllent job on violin(s). So, here we go...Thanks, Geoff and Bruno!!

Fire Up My Imagination

Here I am, sat at work,                       At a desk, in front of a screen,
Fingers gliding over the keyboard,     around the world, my work is seen.

I fire up my imagination          -       Start it up and     Let it fly.
It'll work for you if you're willing   -   All you do is        Take your time.

Another stream of information,       Uploaded to a busy site,
Sets my mind a'drifting,               What to do after dinner tonight.

I fire up my imagination          -       Start it up and     Let it fly.
It'll work for you if you're willing   -   All you do is     Take your time.

I'm willing, so willing,      I'm willing to fire up my mind again,
You're willing, so willing,      so lets,   fire up our minds again.

Here I am sat in my bedroom,    Looking at my lap top screen,
More than a hint of romance,   From a woman looking back at me.

I fire up my imagination          -       Start it up and     Let it fly.
It'll work for you if you're willing   -   All you do is     Take your time.

I'm willing, so willing,      I'm willing to fire up my mind again,
You're willing, so willing,      so lets,   fire up our minds again.

Here I am back at work,             Getting bored of the daily grind,
My mind starts a'drifting,         Wish my access could be denied.

I fire up my imagination          -       Start it up and     Let it fly.
It'll work for you if you're willing   -    All you do is   Take your time.

I'm willing, so willing,      I'm willing to fire up my mind again,
You're willing, so willing,      so lets,   fire up our minds again.
I'm willing, so willing,      I'm willing to fire up my mind again,
You're willing, so willing,      so lets,   fire up our minds again.

My mind again                        My mind.... again

Rich of fantasy, well recorded, and the violin's addons sound really good.

A great collaboration, indeed.

Great.

Fantastic fellas! Kari, I'm glad you found this gem hiding on the SD card to spark off a new song. Bruno the violins are excellent...the style reminds me of ones used in The Beatles productions. Geoff, great words and delivery!

Pure class!  Indeed!

Wow this is really good!

Great work from all involved
What did you use for the drums Kari?

[Pine]

Push the play button on most any song on this site and you never know hwat you will get!

Not disappointed here by a long shot. This is really different and has special charm to it. Loved the instrumentation...bruno's violin imparts a cool old time flavor and geoff's vox are up front and personal.

Great idea here Kari and it shows it pays to keep those old sketches around. Dead ends sometimes turn out to be highways to new frontiers! Hats off to you all for a collab well done!
