Misty Light's Alive

Liner Notes

@kc_ : Wrote this sitting at the ocean on a foggy beach day. Liked the title and the chorus, after listening to some of @newukenewyork 's tunes I had to ask if she would be interested in in setting it to music and she did! I had no expectations and on first listen think she knocked it out of the park! Love the build/lift in the chorus! Thanks @newukenewyork !!

Lyrics

Misty Light’s Alive

V I
Fogs erased the horizon line
Misty light’s alive
Around your face as you dance
Then running, jump and dive

V II
Hippy hands, ten gallon hat
A quart of love for me
Piggies sinking in the sand
All ten she’ll let ‘em be

C
They wave and roll on
Washed up and gone on
The shore break the shore break
The shore breaks for shore

V III
Weightless in water
like we’re dancing on air
You’ll be my ‘Ginger’
I’ll be your Fred Astaire

V IV
Hear you flying by
But I can’t see a thing
Close my eyes in the setting sun
Hear moon rise crickets sing

C
They wave and roll on
Washed up and gone on
The shore break the shore break
The shore breaks so long

Outro
So long along a song
The shore breaks so long
so long, so long

This is lovely. Good imagery in this. I like the melody in this as it takes it time and we can really dig in and feel the vibe and it's relaxing. And I like how the vocal is gentle and strong at just the right spots. Great job!

Really, really, really love these lyrics.

And you can't go wrong having newukenewyork put ANYTHING to music and sing. Great collaboration! ❤️

So beautiful! Emotional feeling with the lyrics and easy to feel the atmosphere at the ocean. Jenni's voice is like water fondling the shore.

@newukenewyork I just listened again found such power in vocals, the dynamics, clarity IDK almost mesmerizing...

the first two lines of the verses reminds me of "White Bird" by its a Beautiful Day. Like that song, this one could stretch out for lengthy psychedelic jams. It isnt easy to write music that can support the excesses of a jam band, but i cold listento this for half an hour without my attention drifting elsewhere.
