Description:
Hold Time.

Poetry by Jack Evans.
Voice - Lisa Corbett
Music by Bryn Corbett

Lyrics:
Words by Jack Evans.

Hold Time

If you could balance time
On the tip of your finger
It would be like glass
Catching the light of yesterday
Fooling you into thinking its tomorrow

If you could hold time in the palm of your hand
It would puddle like water
Sleek, silver hours would leap up out of the waves
Splash down in another hemisphere

If you could hold time tightly
Between thumb and finger
It would shine for you
Like a coin
Like a sun
Like a hundred things you give more value to than now

Flip it high into the air

If it comes down heads
Proceed to your next breath

If it comes down tails
Give yourself a goodnight kiss
And sing yourself to sleep

beautiful bed and fantastic voice - does Lisa sing too? Lovely production, and a real glossy feel.

Lisa doesn't sing, I wish I could persuade her to give it a go...in fact I think I am going to get her singing on 'Jesus Blodd Never Failed Me Yet....'

:-)

Thanks for the comments on Hold Time, I am glad you enjoyed

Much different than any genre i've heard on macjams. But love the music surrounding the poetry. Great work.

You could tie up the ambient market &mdash 06/23/07 - 10:15:04 AM
with quality productions like this. Was that "chanting" real voices "effected" or just synthesised sounds?

Nice one.

Cheers

Brilliant! &mdash 06/24/07 - 05:17:55 PM
This took me by surprise! What an amazing mix. Vivid aural soundscaping. Intriguing---almost Blakean---lyrics. Nice work man!

Be well!
