Caught a dragon fly inside a jar. Fearful when the sky was full of thunder and tearful at the falling of a star. And the seasons they go round and round and the painted ponies go up and down, we're captive of a carousel of time. We can return we can only look behind from where we came and go round and round and round in the circle game. Then the child moved ten times round the season. Painted over ten clear frozen streams. Tears like when you're older must appease him. And promises of someday make him dream. Chorus And the seasons............. So the years spin by and now the boy is 20 . His dreams have lost some grandeur coming true, but there'll be new dreams, maybe better dreams and plenty before his last revolving year is through. Chorus And the seasons............. Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now cart wheels turn to car wheels through the town and they tell him take your time now till you drag your feet to slow the circles down Chorus And the seasons............. Moondance Well, it's a marvelous night for a Moondance With the stars up above in your eyes A fantabulous night to make romance 'Neath the cover of October skies And all the leaves on the trees are falling To the sound of the breezes that blow And I'm trying to please to the calling Of your heat-strings that play soft and low And all the night's magic seems to whisper and hush And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush Chorus: Can I just have one a' more Moondance with you, my love Can I just make some more romance with a-you, my love Well, I wanna make love to you tonight I can't wait 'til the morning has come And I know that the time is just right And straight into my arms you will run And when you come my heart will be waiting To make sure that you're never alone There and then all my dreams will come true, dear There and then I will make you my own And every time I touch you, you just tremble inside And I know how much you want me that you can't hide Chorus Repeat 1st Verse One more Moondance with you in the moonlight On a magic night La, la, la, la in the moonlight On a magic night Can't I just have one more dance with you my love CHILDREN GO WHERE I SEND THEE Peter, Paul & Mary Children go where I send thee How shall I send thee? Well, I'm gonna send thee one by one One for the little bitty baby Who was born, born, born in Bethlehem Said he was born, born, born in Bethlehem Children go where I send thee: How shall I send thee? Hey, I'm gonna send thee two by two Two for Paul and Silas One for the itty bitty baby Who was born, born, born in Bethlehem. Children go where I send thee: How shall I send thee? (*repeat, singing verses in descending order*) I'm gonna send the: three by three, three for the Hebrew children four by four, four for the four that stood at the door five by five, five for the five that stayed alive six by six, six for the six that never got fixed seven by seven, seven for the seven who never got to heav'n eight by eight, eight for the eight that stood at the gate nine by nine, nine for the nine that dressed so fine ten by ten, ten for the ten commandments He was born, born, born in Bethlehem. THE CAT CAME BACK Old farmer Johnson had troubles of his own, He had a yellow cat that wouldn't leave his home He tried and he tried to get the cat away But the cat came back the very next day. Oh... Chorus: The cat came back the very next day Oh, the cat came back They thought he was a gonner But the cat came back He just wouldn't stay away, away, away, away The man around the corner swore he'd shoot that cat on site He loaded up his shotgun with nails and dynamite He waited and he waited for the cat to come around But 97 pieces of the man was all they found and... (chorus) He gave it to a man going up in a balloon And told him for to give it to the man in the moon Balloon came down 500 miles away But the cat came back the very next day, Oh... (chorus) He gave it a man going way out west And told him for to give it to the one he loved the best First the train hit the track and then it jumped the rail And no one else was left alive to tell the gruesome tale, but... (chourus) The A-bomb fell just the other day And H-bomb came in the very same way Russia went, Europe went and then the USA The human race was finished without a chance to pray BUT... THE... Cat came back... FATHER AND SON (Cat Stevens, from _Tea for the Tillerman_, 1970?) It's not time to make a change, just relax and take it easy You're still young that's your fault, there's so much you have to know Find a girl, settle down, if you want to, you can marry Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy I was once like you are now, and I know that its not easy to be calm, when you've found something going on. But take your time, think a lot, think of everything you've got For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not Chorus: How can I try to explain? when I do he turns away again it's always been the same, same old story From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen now there's a way and I know I have to go away and I know I have to go Verse: (away) (away) It's not time to make a change, just sit down and take it slowly (I) (know) (I have) You're still young, that's your fault, there's so much you have (to make this) to go through (decision) (alone) Find a girl, settle down, if you want to you can marry (know) [no?] Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy (stay) (stay, stay) All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside (why?)

If they were right, I'd agree, but it's them they know, not me Now there's a way, and I know that I have to go away. I know I have to go. Cat's In The Cradle Words and music by Harry Chapin and Sandy Chapin My child arrived just the other day; he came into the world in the usual way. But there were planes to catch, and bills to pay. He learned to walk while I was away. And he was talkin' 'fore I knew it. And as he grew he'd say, "I'm gonna be like you, Dad. You know I'm gonna be like you." And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon, little boy blue and the man in the moon. "When you comin' home Dad?" "I don't know when, but we'll get together then, Son. You know we'll have a good time then." My son turned ten just the other day. He said, "Thanks for the ball, Dad. Come on, let's play. Can you teach me to throw?" I said, "Not today. I got a lot to do." He said, "That's okay." And he walked away, but his smile never dimmed. It said, "I'm gonna be like him, yeah. You know I'm gonna be like him." And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon, little boy blue and the man in the moon. "When you comin' home Dad?" "I don't know when, but we'll get together then, Son.

  • Astral Weeks? – It’S Not Just Me, …
    ASTRAL WEEKS? – IT’S NOT JUST ME, … THE RECORDING Van: “The entire LP was recorded in two eight-hour sessions, plus two overdub sessions. That was the whole album.” (Yorke p.51). Astral Weeks was recorded in just two sessions (48 hours) at Century Sound Studios, on West 52nd Street in New York (25 September & 15 October 1968), using NY session (jazz) musicians: Richard Davis (bass), Connie Kay (drums) from the Modern Jazz Quartet, Warren Smith Jr. (percussionist/vibraphone), John Payne (flute/soprano saxophone), and Jay Berliner (guitar), chosen by Lew Merenstein (Producer) in consultation with Richard Davis (bassist). “Merenstein received a call from Warner Bros: ‘We’ve signed Van Morrison, go up to Boston, see what he’s got’. … Morrison played Merenstein his song Astral Weeks: ‘Thirty seconds into it my whole being was vibrating … I had to be the producer to do it. Not that producer, not that producer, regardless of their accomplishments. It had to be Richard (Davis), not that bass player, I don’t want to sound existential, but there was Van, and that was it; there was no band, there were no arrangements, the direction was him singing and playing – that was where I followed. That’s why it came out like it did. To this day, it gives me pain to hear it; pain is the wrong word – I’m so moved by it.” (Marcus p.52-8). Lew Merenstein (Producer): “The musical energy of Astral Weeks came from the great players. That was the jazz background that I had, and that I brought in to it.

  • Venturing in the Slipstream
    VENTURING IN THE SLIPSTREAM THE PLACES OF VAN MORRISON’S SONGWRITING Geoff Munns BA, MLitt, MEd (hons), PhD (University of New England) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Western Sydney University, October 2019. Statement of Authentication The work presented in this thesis is, to the best of my knowledge and belief, original except as acknowledged in the text. I hereby declare that I have not submitted this material, either in full or in part, for a degree at this or any other institution. .............................................................. Geoff Munns ii Abstract This thesis explores the use of place in Van Morrison’s songwriting. The central argument is that he employs place in many of his songs at lyrical and musical levels, and that this use of place as a poetic and aural device both defines and distinguishes his work. This argument is widely supported by Van Morrison scholars and critics. The main research question is: What are the ways that Van Morrison employs the concept of place to explore the wider themes of his writing across his career from 1965 onwards? This question was reached from a critical analysis of Van Morrison’s songs and recordings. A position was taken up in the study that the songwriter’s lyrics might be closely read and appreciated as song texts, and this reading could offer important insights into the scope of his life and work as a songwriter. The analysis is best described as an analytical and interpretive approach, involving a simultaneous reading and listening to each song and examining them as speech acts.

  • VAN MORRISON Born in 1945 Van Heard His Shipyard Worker Father's
    VAN MORRISON Born in 1945 Van heard his Shipyard worker father’s collection of blues, country and gospel early in life. Feeding off musical greats such as Hank Williams, Jimmie Rodgers, Muddy Waters, Mahalia Jackson and Leadbelly he was a travelling musician at 13 and singing, playing guitar and sax, in several bands, before forming Them in 1964. Making their name at Belfast’s Maritime Club, Them soon established Van as a major force in the British R&B scene. Morrison’s matchless vocal and songwriting talents produced instant classics such as the much covered ‘Gloria’ and ‘Here Comes The Night’. Those talents found full astonishing range in Van’s solo career. After working with Them’s New York producer Bert Berns on beautiful Top 40 pop hit ‘Brown Eyed Girl’ (1967), Morrison moved to another realm. “...there was never any suggestion that Morrison, one of the most prolific recording artists and hardest working live performers of his era, would ever rest on his laurels.” Recorded over 3 days with legendary jazz musicians Astral Weeks (1968) is a still singular album combining street poetry, jazz improvisation, Celtic invocation and Afro Celtic Blues wailing. Morrison would weave these and myriad other influences into the albums that followed in quick succession. Reflecting on new life in America on the joyous Sinatra soul of Moondance (1970) and the country inflected Tupelo Honey (1971) he summoned old spiritual and ancestral life in the epic St Dominic’s Preview (1972) closer track Listen To The Lion. Double live album Too Late To Stop Now (1973) highlighted Morrison’s superlative performing and bandleader skills.

    LISTENING TO VAN MORRISON PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Greil Marcus | 208 pages | 17 Jun 2010 | FABER & FABER | 9780571254446 | English | London, United Kingdom Listening to Van Morrison PDF Book The couple had one daughter in , Shana Morrison , who has become a singer-songwriter. Dylan--ever parenthetical and Midwestern, with intellect spilling out of his being--is a much better match for Marcus than the contemplative and uncertain Morrison. Following the death of Berns in , Morrison became involved in a contract dispute with Berns' widow, Ilene Berns , that prevented him from performing on stage or recording in the New York area. At concert's end, he and the other performers sang " The Tide Is Turning ". Thursday 27 August Monday 27 April Tuesday 12 May Morrison has a reputation for being at once stubborn, [3] [4] idiosyncratic , [5] and sublime. He plays a variety of instruments, including the guitar, harmonica, keyboards, drums, and saxophone. Tuesday 29 September Unfortunately, Marcus struggles to capture the essence of such moments, which is hardly surprising in a book about the inarticulable. He's a singer, songwriter, author, poet, and multi-instrumentalist, who has been a professional musician since The rough guide to rock — Google Book Search. He later attributed this to Van Morrison's influence. Wondering just how to qualify this collection--my rating isn't representative of this book as a whole. Friday 17 July Like the other songs on Astral Weeks, it has an unusual musical arrangement. Wednesday 1 July In that period, they released two albums and ten singles, with two more singles released after Morrison departed the band.
