A song for a place that once was.

Lyrics, vocals, and arrangement by Ian Michalski.

Lyrics

Melody Lane

Here we are

Two wanderlust souls who've ventured far

We've traveled by night when all was still

past Troubadour Cove and Busker's Hill

And here we stand before you now

but something's missing

How can you be silent?

Oh such silence...

And your melodies that echoed through the land

Have turned to sand

The fairytale things we've heard of you

have somewhere in time became untrue

Were you really as grand as they all said?

and how could we arrive to find you dead?

And here we thought your magic song

would be here waiting when we finally see you

Well we see you

but now we find for all our faith and trust

You've turned to dust

Crumbled to the ground

and left us as the only living things

inside your ghost town

And we laugh about it

so as not to cry

And we say goodbye

You deserve a bigger stage than this community. I hope and wish that you don't miss opportunities because you are formidable!!!

 

 

Sandro Glavina is an italian composer, named L'Uomo e L'Ombra. The choice of the name derives from the title of the album "L'uomo e l'ombra" of the band "Abstract Music Nuova Esistenza", an experimental group founded by Sandro Glavina together with his friends in the mid-70s.

In the period 2009-2022, L'Uomo e L'Ombra has done 84 albums. The compositions of Sandro Glavina are partly influenced by progressive rock. Sandro has developed a personal style with many experimentations and actualizations. He offers music beyond borders by intertwining different styles in crossover with each other. Prog, psychedelia, classical, post-rock, jazz, pop are some of the influences that dissolve in ambient atmospheres, citations of contemporary music and minimalist nuances. Sandro Glavina aka L'Uomo e L'Ombra plays the music using VSTI synthesizers, keyboards and adds some loops. Sandro isn't a professional musician, composes and plays music just for fun, but his works reach a good outcome, pleasant to listen. L'UOMO E L'OMBRA

Ian and Arianna, What a place to go; a sad place, but there is a charm about that place for sure, my friends! Sad when time changes our memories, but that's the price of progress. I love the mandolin and banjo and once again, Ian your voice is so rich and full and pretty, man! What a place it still is, Ian! Quite and full of spirit and heart, my friends! VME! CBW 10,000 Suns! 💯👍👍👍👍👍 P.S. You two are a brilliant duo! I love the photo of the banjo against the tree that was. A picture is worth a thousand words, and your words are poignant, Ian! "And we laugh about it, so as not to cry." Great line!
