Follow the Wild is the title of a duet I wrote today... just the lyrics. I am simply in Heaven that the great Italian singer Nicola Rossi agreed to sing the male part of the song. This piece will take time. I gotta learn Cubase and I haven't touched a piano since I was a child. It will be a lot to learn, but I won't write the song with the guitar. I do not have the opportunity to make a good record with an acoustic guitar. When I was 16-17 I wrote songs with a piano, so it can't be that hard... Thorbjörn will of course help me to arrange the whole thing and I'd like Nicola to write his own vocal lines... Exciting!

I am listening... all from Sarah Brightman, The Gregorian, Nightwish, Manowar, Vivaldi and of course Jethro Tull is taking a lot of space. Heavy Horses is a great album. They are so genious and since they have English a mother language, it feels like whatever I write is patethic and simple, but I do it anyway. That's the inspiration right now.

It it going slooow with Pavlovian Dogs. We have 9 great song, but nothing happens. I still think Kari makes great music and when I am listening to what we have done, I am so proud and actually sad... yes, I feel pain and frustration that we've done great music with wise and original message, but we need a producer to make a better mix and a serious record label to serve the music as a product of great quality, so public can appreciate it. I am also sure we gotta rerecord everything form the beginning too. Right now it feels like we have upploaded our music here on my space, but imagine you throw gold coins on the street and people are just passing by and don't notice them. Well, I am not so much for sex, violence and drugs but the bruthal truth is that the mass-listener wants exactly violence and sex, gossip and intrigues... Sodom and Gomorra... Well, I can't do anything about that either... I am not God.

By the way, I am beeing social now during the summer (something I am usually not rest of the year), I drive horse and carriage in the museum part of the town and I am doing it better than the riding stuff. My garden feels abandoned because I do not have the time to be there, but I don't have the inspiration either this year since the garden was destroyed a few times, firstly - by kids, then - by the storm and now - the insect invasion makes me feel totally helpless...

It took some time since I got that My Space deletes my blogposts if I paste others poetry or songs texts. So lots of my posts have disappeared and until I understood why it happened, I just was annoyed and did not write as much as I wished.

Well, some of my favorite horses in the riding club has gone to the eternal green fields and one of them was very special to me... Her name was Anemon:

        Anemon

You didn’t know you were going to die soon.
Animals are not supposed to know.
How would it feel to let you go
Because I knew and so
I wondered all those times
While walking in the forest by your side
Would you come back, would you survive…

And when I looked into your deep dark eyes,
So beautiful, so warm and wise,
I saw the tameless soul once running wild
In endless fields, but may be in another life…
Was it all that you have been dreaming
Of the right to choose your way of living…

I hope you’re free there under or above
I promise to remember you with all my love,
Because you let me fly with the elegance of yours
Though I wish you were the one to choose the course.
Thank You for teaching me to trust another species,
To be closer to nature’s energy unleashed.

I still can’t believe you are forever gone,
My beautiful friend Anemon.
