Janis, you are such a special talent, but when you combine your skills with those of Ed, it is a magical moment indeed. Your voice is nothing short of spectacular, with perfect pitch, intonation, and inflection. You are truly a rare talent and we are all lucky you have graced Looperman with your presence. Thanks to you and Ed for this wonderful collaboration. Definitely added to my favorites. I hope all is well.

I "fell" on Looperman by chance and yes, speaking of grace, that's what I feel with this opportunity to share and meet and "work" with passionate and very friendly musicians here ...
I would never have dreamt of such a nice place to fulfill my wish of music sharing .
Ed made me a beautiful gift and you came over to listen to the song . I'm overjoyed and very touched .
Yes, all is well Bear, thanks a lot for your gentle words .
Take care my dear friend ;)

oooh, very sooothing, quite impressed, this is only my firstime listening to you Janis. Awesome.

excellent lyrical content and awesome execution.
I love birds :) actually kinda funny - when I do sing it's either about animals or food, and 1 song about both lol

ps: I have an african djembe if you need some sometime lemme know... also lots of acoustic stuff ; )

Hi Neal,
Nice to meet you !
I thank you for this adjective you used, "soothing" ... That's exactly what I felt when I first heard Ed's music .
I'm delighted this song managed to say what we had in our hearts .
Ths for your offer, I will definitely have a walk in your garden, Sir ;)
Cheers,
Janis

I think when you can bring vision to your music you've actually reached the starting point of what it's really all about,it then transforms into storytelling.
I part company with my long time creative muse Salavador Dali here for his abhorrence of folk (and jazz) music,no doubt founded on a misconception that these forms represented an unsophisticated and anachronistic section of society,nothing could be further from the truth...all the culture of the world has at it's heart the voice and memories of the people and nowhere is this more personified than in folk music,and this composition is a superb example.....Such a beautiful song that transports the listener to a multitude of dimensions,you just don't get that everyday,it's a rare thing...I'm amazed,astounded..dare I say dumbfounded!..Now if Salvador had his head screwed on right he might comment.."This song is autobetrothed by it's own chastity".
To Janis and Ed..I salute you!
cheers Dave :)

I'm always amazed by your clever, deeply thought and interesting comments, Dave ... !
I agree with what you say about this misconception about folk music and the fact that folklore is the people's ancestral oral tradition, culture and rituals . Some people look down on folk music considering it as too "rustic", and tend to forget that each musical style has its origins in a previous one, just like blues was born after slaves work songs for instance .
As Ed's music's so pure and delicate, I felt I could sing about tenderness, nostalgia, nature and memories .
I'm very much honoured by your words, Dave and thank you warmly for the time you spent commenting on this song . What pleases my friends, fills my heart with bliss and I'm indeed very glad Ed and you all liked it .
cu around,
My friendliest thoughts,
Janis :)

Life, love and unity, that's what Ed's music infused into my heart when I first heard it . I kept listening to it as a child who wouldn't get out of the water on a sunny and warm afternoon ... Words and notes came naturally when Ed told me that Aghalee was this little magical place very dear to him .
This music is so full of these three elements in your motto, Billy ...
I'm so happy you enjoyed it and paid us a visit here .
Big kisses,
Take good care my dear friend ;))

Description : "All my songs are inspired by the work of the bands King and Jester and Kukryniksy. I wrote the lyrics for this track, and the music was created by artificial intelligence. The lyrics are original; I wrote them myself. I don't have the ability to create music for this track, but I hope you'll at least like the lyrics." I'm presenting these tracks to you in the form of a demo - this is what they might sound like; I want you to evaluate my lyrics.

Description : Mindway and The Monzder Squadd go together like peanut butter and jelly man. This is our 4th or 5th collab, I think, but for this one, Pnnywze wanted to blend his and Mindway's production styles and see what happens. This is what happens.

NOTE - Shared this one yesterday before I realized that Rob Fame's verse at the end was messed up. So I'm sharing it with Rob's part cut out until my brother fixes it tomorrow.

Description : This is hardcore hip hop. Very Dr DRE, Lil Uzi Vert, Nicki Minaj style with a euro dance vibe /feel and with a hip hop beat. Lot's of bass in the track too. Hope you enjoy my new rap track. I have edited the previous track since I am allowed only 1 upload per day here. This is the final mastered version. The previous version had mastering problems which I have adjusted here.
