Something like that.
I was hammering some chords on the keyboard, and this composition came about. I guess I was happy it sounded good upon the first few tries. One of those good days when anything I whack on the keyboard seemed to work.

Which reminds me... Kevin just turned 30 not too long ago. He wrote: "Woke up this morning, realizing I was now thirty… and that there’s nothing I could do about it."
Heh. I'll make a song out of his post.
Happiness is:
a cake in a cup, from your mother;
discovering joy by accident;
standing by the sideline and watching the world go by;
when age makes no difference.
Happiness, is.
A Belated Happy Birthday, my friend.

Awe Ivan, that's a sweet song! Thank you. Lots of hard work put into it, yet it doesn't demand that I notice anything (like the voices in the background). Calming yet energizing.
ReplyDeleteI can imagine myself waking from slumber and running around the room, then out of the house and onto the grassy fields, bathed in the warmth of the sun. Then I realize how I had no one to share this feeling with, so I feel empty inside. As I fall backwards onto the soft field of daisies, I watch the sky take over my vision. There is more to life if I look beyond myself.
Nice piece :)

Very heartwarming :)
Kevin, I wish CGI software was as easy to use as GarageBand. Then I can make a music video from your vision :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Michal & Veron, for taking time to comment.
I like what Charles Schultz said in his Peanuts comic strip: "Happiness is a warm puppy"
ReplyDeleteI surly believe that would be a beautiful piece of note and I know where it comes from.. Whenever you send to me by email I can't open it to listen so it's quite shame to ask every single time to double work you have to do it for me.. Do you mind this time again??? Please
ReplyDelete@ Kyara: No problem. Here's the link to the MP3 file.
