http://www.eunan.net/aud/isolationblue.mp3 light rock catagory. Isolation Blue In a distant world of darkness far from the home town girl in the midst of foreign oceans there's a lonely soldier's world where the pen of love stops talking when a promise turns untrue and far away there's isolation blue Chorus: Memoirs of pages filled with passion tear stained letters in pockets full of truth dreams inked on promise after action a river of words in isolation blue There's night skies lacking moonlight when a lover loses face and a soldier can get buried in the dirt inside his veins and the chapters of defeat are written with ancient rules and far away there's isolation blue. There's a lover's fire an old desire a distant fading flame where wayward winds keep blowing cross an icy memory lane and the brightest leaves of Autumn become colors of the truth and far away there's isolation blue. Memoirs of pages filled with passion tear stained letters in pockets full of truth dreams inked on promise after action a river of words in isolation blue. The role of poetry is to utter the un-utterable; to open up spaces of consciousness and resistance; to language oppressions; to re-language historie [This message has been edited by ethome (08-20-2002 11:04 AM).] |

![]() (BIG HUGGGSSSSSS) Oh my gosh, I am speechless, I clicked on the MP3 to start it then I sung along, this brought me to tears as it is so sad but soooooo beautiful! (sigh) You are a very talented artist, sweet friend, I believe this is worthy of hitting the Billboard Hot 100, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Eric, thank you for sharing! ![]() May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

I have a strong background in the music business as a "wife" email coming to you for a laugh. I have to tell you this is an incredible song, and I know a good one when I hear it trust me on this one. As a poem, the words stuck me hard, and the ones that stabbed the most were these... and a soldier can get buried in the dirt inside his veins I heard that from someone once that they felt that sand and dirt now ran through them instead of blood, so I am sending him your song. Also, I am sending it out to everyone here that is on my mailing list out of sheer pride that we have in Passions someone as talented as yourself. Thank you for sharing this with us. The most valuable thing you own is a smile, wear it, and share it. |

![]() ![]() Eric .... I loved this! ![]() I loved the guitar, I loved the beat, I loved the melody, I loved the words, I loved the voice ... OK ... so have I said I loved this???!!! ![]() This is just wonderful, and I am sooooooo glad you posted the MP3 file so we could have a listen. It's one thing to read your work, and make up a melody in my head, as I often seem to do, lol ... but this just blew me away to be able to hear you for real. Very, very well done. Easy listening ... oh, I just loved it (did I say that already? lol) ![]() Best wishes and big hugs, /Kit |

I love it, Eric! But I do have one small suggestion. When listening to the phrase: "Memoirs of pages filled with passion" I found it a bit awkward, and in my mind, I felt it would sound better as 'memory pages' or 'remembered pages.' But perhaps that's just me. Overall, I think it is outstanding, and will send the link to a friend. ![]() |
