Pink Floyd/Learning To Fly - [link]

Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Stretched to the point of no turning back
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Standing alone my senses reeled
A fatal attraction is holding me fast,
How can I escape this irresistible grasp?

Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted, just an earth-bound misfit, I

Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings, I thought, I thought of everything
No navigator to find my way home
Unladened, empty and turned to stone
A soul in tension -- that's learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try

Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I

Above the planet on a wing and a prayer,
My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air,
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
Out of the corner of my watering eye
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night

There's no sensation to compare with this
Suspended animation, a state of bliss

Can't keep my mind from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I

You don't need to.
If you like the art that is all that matters.
I usually put music with my art.
I like the song.

Wow, Joe...too wonderful for words (and yet I have many...always )...feels like a delicate and soft embrace for the released soul/spirit? Love the colors, makes me want to paint my toe nails and be all girly.

The lyrics are very reminiscent of your want of home. Cool.

Joe-Maccer In reply to astrangeallure [2012-11-18 01:11:25 +0000 UTC]

Oh God...you killed me with that toenails comment, Marni.
I hope it's not a girly piece.

I think most of the music have in some ways
my inner feelings about Home.

astrangeallure In reply to Joe-Maccer [2012-11-18 01:23:43 +0000 UTC]

Ha! No, no, it's very manly. That color of pink is very lovely, just makes me want to surround myself in it for a little while, before I go fight in the UFC women's championship.

Did you create with the song in mind or did you realize the song fit this piece afterwards?

Joe-Maccer In reply to astrangeallure [2012-11-18 01:30:30 +0000 UTC]

I was playing around the time I was ready to title it
and it kinda worked.
PINK??? I thought it was orange...

Do you fight in the UFC...whatever that is...

astrangeallure In reply to Joe-Maccer [2012-11-18 01:41:35 +0000 UTC]

It works.

Oh no...it does have some orange in it. It's so lovely, Joe...don't worry...maybe it's just my monitor??

Ha! Do I look like I could possibly be a fighter??? UFC = Ultimate Fighting Championship...[link]

Joe-Maccer In reply to astrangeallure [2012-11-18 01:48:33 +0000 UTC]

I have no idea...I don't know what you look like.

You're being very kind, Marni...you think it's a sissy piece.

astrangeallure In reply to Joe-Maccer [2012-11-18 01:54:20 +0000 UTC]

No way. Definitely not...goodness...nothing sissy about it...hardcore, but with a softness. I love it, Joe. And so many others do too. It touches something within. Psst...don't make me come beat your ass.
