Hummingbird
- Words & Music by David Elias, all rights reserved worldwide
Hummingbird keep your back to the highway
Hummingbird keep your eye on the sun
Hummingbird will you come and fly my way
Hummingbird a new day has begun
I wish I was a tall tree in a meadow
Higher than the blue sky by a mile
I'd shake my arms at the ground down below
And pray the stars let me sleep for awhile
Hummingbird keep your back to the highway
Hummingbird keep your eye on the sun
Hummingbird will you come and fly my way
Hummingbird a new day has begun
When I can't walk no longer to the water
When I can't reach my arms up to touch your hair
When I can't rise up and look any further
Then I'll be with hummingbird in the air
Hummingbird keep your back to the highway
Hummingbird keep your eye on the sun
Hummingbird will you come and fly my way
Hummingbird a new day has begun

David Elias recommends:
-
Intricate, exacting, sonically meticulous, extemporary in all its planning, takes you into a room then into a field then into the void.

Because of a Flower
by Ana RoxanneBought the vinyl. Spectacular use of sound with some insane vocal tracks overhead.
go to album -
Start at the end and play it backwards. Or forwards. Sideways either way. Squarely unsquare and rapidly descending. Captured.

Meet Me at the River
by Dawn LandesOn “Meet Me By the River,” Dawn Landes’s self-described “Nashville record,” buoyant country melodies settle deep into lush instrumentation.
