Welcome to February!

What a fabulous month this is! 28 days placed perfectly inside 4 calendar weeks. My heart sings a merry song everytime this kind of occurrences happen.

Funfact: 29th of February is in Finland commonly known as “karkauspäivä” (=the day of escaping).

So, sorry for all of you, who are in dire need of getting away: You’ll have to wait until 2024.

Also, MAKING FACES.

Also 2, this post contains a hidden & very childish joke.

Ok so, this one’s a follow up on “Pantomime villain empty cage”, that can be found below. That tune was uploaded by me on 12th of december 2016.

PANTOMIME VILLAIN GOOD RIDDANCE.

Further explanations are unnecessary.

Complete transcript of KENT REVISED would be small leaves in a big tree.

– Me after shower: “Hmm, should I put moisturizer in my face? Nah, I’ll put some tomorrow.” Me: Puts moisturizer.

– Me in the grocery store: “I feel like cooking some healthy food. Maybe salad of some kind of a risotto?” Me: Picking up a ham-cheese-pepperoni-ham-n-spam frozen pizza.

– Me in the evening: “Hmm, movie or gaming? I think I’ll go with the movie. Me: Starts reading a book.

What’s this thing, and does it have a name? Like, when you make an absolute decision of mundane nature, and immediately switch it.

Switchision. Yeah, that works.

SERENDIPITY SERENADE was the result of: “I don’t feel like playing acoustic guitar today.”

…started with me changing all the dates in this text file from 2121 to 2021…

My own joke tripped me up!

Anyway, HALLONSYLT. It gets you going.

Note to self: Do not write jokes that are smarter than you are.

Happy!

Lots of worming’s been going on.

Early in the year it was “A Visit From The Dead” by King Diamond. (Love that song!)

In the summer it was “Zig Zag Wanderer” by Captain Beefheart. (Love that song!)

However, two pieces by the Move are the clear winners here, the songs being: “Hello Susie” and “Looking On”. Both of them are first songs of their respective albums, both of which came out in 1970!

Man, they were working back then!

And yes, love those songs!

Also SAHKO.

See you in 2121!

What we’ve got here is failure to understand when a song is done. “Nothing’s ever really completed”, said George 50.

I could have easily spent 2-7 days more making this tune. Writing hieroglyphs with my quill, while looking all dreamy, and at the same time minding that my prog-cape doesn’t get wrinkles. Also, I’d do some rehearsing, playing & editing.

Unfortunately, I have a schedule to keep.

The solution: Replace one word with another!

SHAMELESS PART TWO. This is the part where our heroes are at their lowest point.

Scroll way down for the first one.

Yes. It’s December.

The nights are dark, except for the strange & colouful phenomenon up in the sky, that is Australian wildfires caused by climate change.

People go happily shopping for Christmas stuff. Tramful of passengers spontaneously bursts into singing “Always Look on the Bright Side of Life”. Strangers greet & hug smilingly at the market square.

Not.

The most anticipated event of the history is a vaccine, rather than the second coming of the Beatles.

…

Oh well, December is still December: ELF PARTICLE.

At the time when I produced ICONIC, I was reading the autobiography of Phil Collins. So, something from the book definitely slipped into the tune. The general mood of the piece certainly is somewhat adultish & 80’s-like.

Phil’s a weird figure. The man is responsible for some of the most heinous crimes in pop music history, and on the other hand he’s the guy who played drums on “The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway” and drummed & sang on “Dodo/Lurker”!

The book really reinforces the dual image I had about Phil: Very down to earth kind of guy, who occasionally could be not so considerate fellow.

Sounds like a human to me.

Phil – good songwriter, great singer, UK’s second richest drummer.

Yeah, that’s right.
