Waiting for my real life to begin — Colin Hay
Querverweis
Seemed I had to do this after the video I played guitar with that injured finger and that was the same title.
You may ask, why there is only one verse, I recorded. The answer is as simple as the song is part of my life. I don’t like the second verse because of the line “suddenly nothing happened …” — don’t play around with such severe things — and the third verse is too much like the first, so: There is only one verse in my cover!
Why this song is part of my life? You could say, that I’m currently in a kind of “wait state”. After a few personal desasters — twinkle — I’m now working on a “new beginning”. And even if this new start is almost done, there are some missing parts, that now have to be found and being integrated.
Yes, I know, this song is maybe much more about people who are looking back to their lives and find out there wasn’t any.
Don’t worry: I had much life before and I will have much in the future. Actually, I’m maybe living my life — right now — much more than all those “permanent-activity” fanatics out there.
If you ask me, those people are acting like little children: On the one hand they fear to miss something, on the other, they are repressing the real missing parts of their lives. What parts? Don’t know really! But when they ever come to rest — “and suddenly nothing happened” — they know! Could be to have some children or maybe just this real-love-thing that all these people try to get around by getting together with the first one, who isn’t up in the trees fast enough.
But activity makes you happy? Your job makes you feel good? Travelling around the world gets you up? Hope you find a way out. That is just like being addicted to a drug: You have to act all the time, or you get really sad, or?
Happiness can not be found in rushing activity, but in tranquility.
But — thank godness, twinkle — nobody asks me!
Hope you apologize, that the song isn’t very accurate! Please remember, that I’m no real musician, and that I recorded that song under very poor conditions — at my home computer. And I’m not making ten takes for a instrumental or singing part, laugh. There could be two times of recording maybe, a third time of singing this voice, but …
There are two Versions actually: The newer one, that is shown above, is a bit fuller, it has an additional, deep third voice and a second, much higher tuned guitar. You can find the other one on my Youtube-channel

“Serenade in trash minor” — creative project
Yes! Had some fun yesterday 
. Want to now a “Sereneade in trash minor”? Nature and music. Know something better?
From the original description
A study:
Just a survey about some minimalist music as a background for some video-clips. Called it Serenade in trash minor, according to that garbage-like-distorted finger bass in the middle part. It’s copying the first, gentle part to the end, giving it a kind of more expression.
The main part is containing two totally different grand pianos who are building up this carpet-like sound-construct.
Think it’s just working somehow, I can hear it again and again without getting bored. Try it maybe.And another trial:
Trying the look of a video you get while recording the way of your favorite walking path. Just wanted to memorize the nice home-environment since we’re probably moving somewhere else … — whenever.
Like this rhythmic up and down of the foot steps.
Choose that clips randomly as you see and have not really worked on it to get it quiet straight, as you can imagine, if you ask yourself what horses and cows have to do there
Hmmm, should be 720p however! … Ah, there it is! Took a bit of time, obviously!So few studies and one result — incomplete as you may see, but quiet impressing, or?
Have fun and never forget:
Lots of love,
Thorsten
