greetings all,
so we took a saturday
and traipsed around charlotte nc,
looking for places to set up and play...
i call it guerilla style,
just bring the instruments
and create the show,
in this case the videos!
here's one from a playground.
called the "clear blue now"
todd ...vocals & guitar,
paul ..drums & cool tie.
and sonya...brilliant fluid camera. thank you.
we also graced the non existent stages
at a buddhist temple,
a waterspouting fountain,
a huge cat sculpture,
and
a famous sign at the heart of downtown charlotte.
but the first video:
here's "clear blue now"........(lyrics below video)
***clear blue now***
sometimes i feel like i'm falling behind,
sometimes you're so far away, sometimes i feel that i'll never find
a soft and beautiful place,
and so i walk these streets late at night,
kick my heels up to the wind,
rambling like a leaf, scattered and dry,
from chapel to chapel i have been,
lost in memory and shadow,
lost in memory and shadow,
tossed and turning about,
but i know what's mine,
it's the everlasting shine,
of the clear, the sweet, blue now.
sometimes the garden it's anywhere you are,
sometimes it's so far away,
i beg your pardon but i'll spent my time
looking for that beautiful place,
and so i dream my dreams late at night,
close my eyes and i cry,
a shell of a man and i don't understand
the seasons, the storms, the tides,
lost in memory and shadow,
lost in memory and shadow,
tossed and turning about,
but i know what's mine,
the everlasting shine,
the clear, the sweet, blue now.
yes, i know what's mine,
it's your presence shining through,
into the clear, the sweet, blue now,
the now,
now,
now.
