The discursively-associative and surreally-paronomasiacal powers of the unregenerate half-baked human mind
can be a scary thing.
Tulsa-born but Dallas-raised Anne Erin Clark (perhaps better-known by her stage-name "St. Vincent"), composed this for inclusion in yMusic's Beautiful Mechanical (2011).
"This is moving through different eras of classical music. Expressionists well represented. Along with other styles and ideas; there is definitely an 'American' music tone; inspired by Copland, Gershwin, and even Dvorak from his Symphony #9. But what the hell do I know. I like it." -- astute SchmooTube-page commenter's 2-cents'-worth
Here's her uncle, Tuck Andress (with his wife, Patti) killin' it Jimi-style, from a great jazz-harmonical height. As a teenager Annie C. roadied on one of his European tours.
"Little Wing"
Well, she's walking through the clouds,
With a circus mind that's running wild,
Butterflies and zebras,
And moonbeams and fairy tales.
That's all she ever thinks about.
Riding with the wind.
When I'm sad, she comes to me,
With a thousand smiles she gives to me free.
It's alright, she says it's alright,
Take anything you want from me,
Anything.
Fly on little wing.
And so castles made of sand slip into the sea, eventually.
BTW, you have to straighten up and fly (and eat) right in Texas -- trust me on this one:
Crosby, Stills, & Hash (actually Hutson & Harris, Attorneys, Waco, TX)
A law unto himself.
What any of this has to do with anything besides the fevered mind-distortions of really bad jet-lag is anybody's guess.
