"A while ... and fly" (Geir original)

[Geir]

This ended up on a whole other planet than where it started well maybe not, but I'll have trouble playing it live alone

Lots of tracks ... 4 guitars, bass, at least 4 vocal tracks, one electric guitar and mbr drums.

Quite different from "Painted gray" tho written immediately after finishing that one.


ohhh... and it'n kinda related to "Venus", "I am a Spaceman" and "This is a song" ......

It even has a monkey in it, in the same way this sentence has not  

I am going away for a while
I just wanna see what an island can be
without a highway through my mind
In the trees the birds
no monkeys to be heard
on the beach alone
no men dressed in suits

I just wanna lie down
and watch the clouds go by
I just wanna
 spread my arms and fly

I am going to relax a little while
plug out the net, choose to forget
every worry in my mind
Get a riverboat
and watch the grass grow
learn to play "Lazy"
really slow

I just wanna lie down
and watch the clouds go by
I just wanna
 spread my arms and fly

I am going to dream a little while
drink from the flowers
and find out what's on their mind
get a telescope
watch the stars at night
se Mars race Jupiter
to get Venus in sight

I just wanna lie down
and watch the clouds go by
I just wanna
 spread my arms and fly

Wonderful Geir, this song has such a great feel to it.

You have created something really special with the harmonies, they just add so much the song.

One of my favourites of yours after just one listen.

[SwanSong]

me of the song girl by them . with those harmonies or nowhere man

Even by your usual high standards, this is a special one. Such a beautiful melody and arrangement. My new Geir favourite! I love it. You're on a real roll at the moment.

Straight to download.

This is one of my favorites not only of yours Geir, but on
this forum. Very Beatle-ish sounding, which is a huge complement.
This is going directly to my mp3 player.
Geir you ROCK!
