Liner Notes
Another go at the prompt, with guitar this time
Lyrics
The moonlit stream, a silver thread,
Sparkles where the fairies tread.
The night is still, yet full of song
,
A world where wonder does belong.
The air is thick, something for everyone,
Battles lost, battles won.
In every shadow, light takes flight,
Enchanted whispers in the night.
It’s magic, you have to believe
It’s magic, you feel like a child,
On Christmas Eve
It’s magic, and it’s here now
Magic, it will change the world somehow
(C) words and music G Todd 2025

I love the feeling of this one -- something genuinely sweet and hopeful in it. (The melody and your voice reminded me of Nick Lowe -- which is about the highest praise I can offer!) Great skirmish!

There's some deep sentiment here. I'm getting a bit of a Velvet Underground vibe; I'm waiting for the band to kick in and blow this up! It's like: we know in our core the world needs to change and we just want to see that magical reveal in an explosion of colors or something. Evocative.

I love "In every shadow, light takes flight." Really digging your voice, and the sincere delivery and tone, it's almost punk!

The guitar set me in a hot desert western and yet the lyrics took me to a cool Christmas morning. That was magic.
