Well BB, you're the reason this song got made at all !!  This forum can spawn the strangest inspiration ..... This one is inspired by the things that happened to me after listening to  Saijinn's "(SONG REMOVED) " ;D and because Mr. B was so eager to know what happened, I felt obliged to make this one ,,,,,

I wrote this a couple of days ago, but since I've been quite busy, I have recorded a track whenever I've got the chance these last days and finishing it off today. After listening to it a few times during bounces and mixing I realise that my English pronunciation is a bit off here and there and since I'm not German I don't think it qualifies as krautrock, but I feel it may be in it's place to label it ... well ..... "lefserock" .....

One word is pronounced correctly tho and that is "Huldra" ;) ( google it if you feel you need to understand this tale !

Hope nobody will disappear after listening to this ;D

edit: lyrics added
I had a dream
I went out into the sea
Or was it real
It's so hard to tell

I dived down
to a sound
so sweet and pure
yet dark and mature

I saw a girl
the fairest I've seen
her charm was strong
I had to move along

I heard the call
like a soothing melody
like overjoy
and deep melancholy

I needed air
her skin was fair
I tried to get back
her eyes turned black

and as I tried to get away
a sinking ship gave her another prey


When I got up
The sun had left the sky
The moon was shining bright
cold air filled the night

I crawled up on a jagged stone
I got the feeling I wasn't alone

I ran into the woods
seeing creatures there with hoods

And as I ran
I fell down on the ground
In front of me
there stood a lady

Emeralds instead of eyes
her hair just like fire

Oh, she reached out
and touched my hand
a wave of heat
took me to another land

I walked with her
until she turned away
I got a glimpse of another tale

Like the Sirens of the sea
there's a lady living in the woods
It was "Huldra", I did meet
there was no escape
no way off the hook

I was under a spell
oh .. I gotta tell you

It was a dream
the sweetest dream of all
it felt so good
like nothing could go wrong

She is so kind
she's always in my mind


I need no more
she's got it all
She's in my head
she's in my soul

And that is
the way it should be
I feel captured
I feel free

This is so good it is beyond.  This is a monster song Geir, a monster.  I will download this and listen to this for ever and ever.  What a great frigging song.  If I am the reason this got made, my silly ramblings, just for fun, than I am humbled, for this is a masterpiece of Geirian proportions.  Damn, what a way to end a Saturday night.  Holy Shit this is good.  Hot damn man.  lefserock all the way.

Fantastic song Geir, it is mesmerising. Superb guitar work throughout, and the guitar solo highlights even further your skills on this instrument.
Love the vocal too, and no need to apologise for your English pronunciation, its sounds way better than most people who speak it as a first language!!

All in all, a top tune!!!

This is a pleasure to listen to. Mostly simple but with enough complexities going on to keep it  interesting. Nice job!

These days I merely dabble at being old and wise.
But I swear, I used to absolutely excel at being young and stupid.
