Song Information:
This song was inspired by a camping trip Jan and I did in February this year - and it's taken this long to get together (for many reasons). The long gestation has however given me the opportunity to try to develop my skills in the production department, and hopefully that comes accross in the result. I simply couldn't wait any longer to post this one!!
This has the significant benefit of 4 collaborators: Anne Cozean (SISTERS) and my wife Jan on backing vocals; Mike Watkins (kevmikwa) on drums; and Alf Solti (alfalpha) on keyboards. I play guitars and bass (and sing a bit). A big thank you to Alf, Mike, Jan and Anne for their time and talent!
The lyrics are simple snippets of things which happened during our little trip, and may not make much sense, but they sum the trip up rather well to me. The distinct Italian influence here was unexpected, but fits the song nicely.
The "Blue Pool" is at Bermagui, 90km from our place, and is simply a beautiful place to
Play it loud!
Song Lyrics:
Blue Pool
© 2007 Neil Porter
Well I’m packing up the wagon
Time to do some camping by the sea
It's ninety ks to Paradise
Ninety ks from nowhere you and me
Heading up to Bermi
Pick a beach that isn’t far away
The water temp’s been falling
You couldn’t get this man in there, no way
Blue Pool
Warmer than the ocean
Blue Pool
Quite the place to be
Blue Pool
Poetry in motion
Blue Pool
Hangin’ in the sun sounds fine to me
Fine to me
Fine to me
Blue Pool
INSTRUMENTAL
Blue Pool
Warmer than the ocean
Blue Pool
Quite the place to be
Blue Pool
Poetry in motion
Blue Pool
Hangin’ in the sun sounds fine to me
Fine to me
Fine to me
Blue Pool
Fresh caught calamari
Fishing boats that loiter in the bay
Moto Guzzi mayhem
80 years and clearly here to stay
Gelato by the seaside http://www.macidol.com/jamroom/images/smilies/face-grin.png
