Go way back in this blogs history...

And you will find old posts where I repeated song lyrics of several SJ Tucker and Blackmore's Night songs. I did that mostly because I was trying to memorize songs and they were all in one place. Now I'm doing it again because SJ Tucker has released another CD, or at least a digital single. I'm very happy and I've been listening to them over and over. The songs I'll put on here are called Rootless and La Sirene. Rootless is my favourite but La  Sirene is close behind. They are both kinda long but see if you can follow them. They're small cause there are type issues. If you want to hear both song (which you will because they're awesome) and to get some background info please visit SJ Tucker's music page to see all her songs and Cd's. http://music.sjtucker.com/indexpage



Shield brother calls to beg me 
get a message to his girl 
ancestors stirring, sending messages 
through our own across the world 
I am listening, I am following 
as warriors of the light can only do 
we ride rootless 
on heavy medicine 
every day until our lives are through 
CHORUS 1 
we ride rootless on heavy medicine 
disconnected from the ground 
we ride rootless in dark places 
unafraid that we might fall or die or drown 
we are working, we are tireless 
we are seekers of the way 
we ride rootless on heavy medicine 
and we live to fight another day 

Time to do the work while my bones and blood are wild 
with lessons learned and secrets shared 
Friends and lovers help me put my armor back together 
and never let me leave home unprepared 
My comrade sets his fiddle to his shoulder 
and I know today there'll be no turning back. 
We'll ride rootless 
on heavy medicine 
unashamed of what we lack 
CHORUS 2 
We ride rootless on heavy medicine 
disconnected from the ground 
We ride fearless in dark places 
hearts in danger but our spirits safe and sound 
We are working, we are tireless 
singing songs to stir the sky 
We are honor bound to share these visions 
walking tall and getting by 
walking tall when we don't fly 

Dirt beneath my nails 
I claw my way home from the forest 
just as crazy as before 
but I am breathing and I am laughing 
taking one step at a time 
bringing truth from door to door 
and I'm not the only one 
one of many 
unafraid to open eyes or heart or mind 
We ride rootless 
on heavy medicine 
and we do it all the time 
CHORUS 3 
We ride rootless on heavy medicine 
disconnected from the ground 
We ride windward across the wasteland 
skin in danger but our hearts all safe and sound 
We speak the language of song and shadow 
We are tenders of the flame 
We ride rootless 
on heavy medicine 
and from day one we've never been the same 
CHORUS 4 
We are healers working retail 
or working graveyard without pay 
We tell stories in our circle 
We listen or we dance or we just pray 
We are working, we are tireless 
We are teachers of the way 
We ride rootless on heavy medicine 
and we walk it every day 
CHORUS 1 
END COUNTERMELODY: 
we are here so the stories get told 
don't give up ride out be bold 
build the fire bright and strong 
speak your truth and sing your song 

you are here so the stories get told 
goddess bless your weary soul 
raise your voice to call the cry 
storytellers never die 
goddess bless your weary heart 
tried and tested, torn apart 
holding hands around the flames 
healed and whole we rise again 
goddess bless your weary soul 
we are here so the stories get told 
and we live to fight another day






I pray to La Sirene 
she who calls the waves her own 
I pray to La Sirene 
I pray to La Sirene 
I dance for La Sirene 
she who calls the waves her own... 
I sing for La Sirene 
she who calls the waves her own... 
I sing for La Sirene 
I sing for La Sirene 
I pray to La Sirene 
final tag: 
I sing for La Sirene 
I dance for La Sirene 
I pray to La Sirene 
counterpoint 1: 
sirens sisters singing low 
show me how your gardens grow 
tell me how how the current flows 
teach me how to breathe below 
let what flows through me prove as true 
as roll of ocean under moon 
upon the shore I'll sing to you 
I'll gladly come and see you soon 
water bids me come and dance 
to float on top and take a chance 
by water be this spell enhanced 
say hail and welcome now 
I pray to La Sirene 
help my voice like siren song 
ring out bright and clear and strong 
to keep on singing my life long 
I pray to La Sirene 
let what flows through me prove as true 
as roll of ocean under moon 
upon the shore I'll sing to you 
I'll gladly come and see you soon 
help my voice like siren song 
ring out bright and clear and strong 
to keep on singing my life long 
I pray to La Sirene 
I pray to La Sirene 
counterpoint 2: 
Yemaya, o ya Mambo 
Yemaya, o ya Mambo 
Yemaya, o ya Mambo 
pray to La Sirene 
counterpoint 3: 
I sing for La Sirene 
I sing for La Sirene 
I pray to La Sirene 
I pray to La Sirene

Rawr!

I really don't have a lot to say. I have no new manga to read and now I'm just clicking "random" and reading every single completed one. It's hard to find completed ones now. Ones that are actually good.

Wow, new post! And one where I'm just a smidge mad!

Okay so I am doing homework today because of conferences. I'm working on Hamlet journal, and I was working on allusions (Ideas is literature kind of passed down like the idea of the Bible in the Lion King. Really, look at it closely.) So a lot of Emilie Autumn song's have references to Hamlet. (To those who haven't read Hamlet: You have not lived and "For shame, for shame")
I had to search up many songs anew because all the ones I listened to privatized all her videos. I listened to the song then wrote what I thought with the similarities. So I was re-searching Opheliac when my sis decides to wake up. She told me that she needed her music to relax before work. I calmly told her I needed to do my homework with my music first. She decided to have a bloody meltdown with whiny voice! She told me I promised and she needed to listen to the songs before the 12 hour shift. I said that this was for homework and I also need to find them. When she told me I could listen to her songs while doing homework, I again, calmly, said that I can't concentrate with other music while trying to write about a specific song when it is a completely different genre.
She decides to sit on the couch and cry. And it didn't even look like she was fake crying or really crying. Let's just say WORST ACTING EVER. So I finally relented because I knew she would keep whining like a freaking toddler until I played her songs. So now I'm here on blogger trying to type while horrible music choices are playing. Only two of the 17 songs so far I listen to.
Now what happened next made her whine again. My mom needed to go online. They had their own battle about the computer and I got kicked off. Now, I'm back on and working on Hamlet again. Except instead of listening to EA I decided to go with Trance- Secret Melody.
That was my day. Wasn't it amazing? Ciao till next time.

I'm tired so no complaining.

I didn't get to film much of the party and there were so many inappropriate jokess I would never have gotten away with it anyway. I have made a new video for school so if you want to check YouTube it's on there. (This was supposed to be published last week so....It's time travelling!)
