    • Short but said so much. Just walk it off. Something to keep in mind.

    • Terrific little write.

      Having dealt with the darkness of depression myself I can feel your friends soul just aching for peace.

      Bloody scary but the only way out of suffering is in….give your friend a hug from me.
      🙏🙏🙏

      • The only way out is in…truth there. Unfortunately my friend needs help finding a light source at this point. Too deep and too dark and there’s no exit found. Or rather, only a final exit. Thank you, Peter

    • When my friend explained the things they were unable to get done because of the debilitating depression, the doctor actually asked “Why not? Why don’t you just don’t it?” My friend responded (quite rightly, I thought) with “fuck you.” If they don’t understand they judge. When they judge, it adds to the damage. I don’t know why it’s so hard for people to just be kind to each other. Thank you, my friend

    • This is so cool. I happy you both did it. Nice going to Ricky;))

      • Chère F.,
        This was the coop I was telling you about.

        I hope you listened with as much fun as A. and I had while making it.
        On the SoundCloud version (identical version) I thank Ricky as well.

        Also on behalf of Adelphina, grateful for you listen and comment!
        Warm regards, Gus

      • Hahaha. Thanks!
        Thank god for Ricky, he helped me sound decent. lol
        It was an experience for sure:)

    • Nicely done, Adel. You and Gus did an amazing job on this song. Love the trippy effect on the chorus, I’m assuming with reverb.. You got a better voice than I do. Appreciate you.

      Damian

      • Hi Ramian,
        I’m grateful for the listen en want to thank you, also on behalve of Adelphina of course.
        Kind regards, Gus

      • Hey Damien

        Much respect for the singers out there!
        Ricky had me doing pushups so I would project my voice better.
        It’s not my thing but I had to give it a shot. lol

        Thanks for taking a listen!

    • Chère A.,
      Hope this finds you well?!

      You see, it’s not half as scary as you may have thought I guess.
      There’s a first time for all fun and harmless things, and this is such a thing. Kicking some ideas around with a very happy sounding outcome!

      I simply loved the whole process. I am grateful for you having done this coop with me. And extra grateful for children who support the quirkies of their parents. And a very nice touch of voice doubling on the chorus.

      I love it from the first to the last second! Until we’ll meet again… electronically (to prevent gossip – there’s not a first for everything I think). Wish your first song published Tuesday will sound as happy as your voice.
      Warm greetings, Gus

      • Thank you for the invite and pushing me out of my comfort zone.
        I will never forget it, that’s for sure. Haha
        Ricky did great with me and as so patient! lol

        Thanks again Gus!
        Rock on buddy!

    • Well, darn. I love how you are branching out in so many directions creatively. And yes, I smile every time you serenade me with this song. (hey thats what you called it!). Props to Gus and Ricky for their help. keep in mind that this is your first try at something like this, and it is not horrible! So don’t knock yourself over it, punk!
      And then this evening, you did another poetry reading in your town. Damn! I am so happy sharing your enthusiasm and energy. You are incredible my love.

      • Hoi hoi S.,
        The line between bragging and pride is thin. I choose pride. Grateful for your listen and comment.

        You, the reason A. set this up/wrote and sang it, Ricky who supported his mother, and me by the coop all have our role in this. And I love what is happening.
        The professionals who have listened so far, mentioned:
        – Velvet Underground and Nico
        – Early Jefferson Airplane
        – Early Blondie
        It can’t be bad if profs compare you with their heroes.

        A. has links and screen dumps of the comments.
        I envy her courage and love how this all developed.
        Happy Friday/weekend to you and A.
        Warm regards, Gus

      • Hey you!
        Trying something new is always scary for me.
        But you only live once and I had to do this! It felt wrong for someone else to sing those words.
        They are from me to you!
        So yeah. We all did an our best with this coop and I am very proud of how it turned out.
        And hey! It’s Friday!! I’ll be seeing you next week punk! Hahaha

        Love you babe

    • Nicely done! Especially this line:

      sending you vivid dreams
      of how the night has short curves
      and breathes falling stars
      and breathes falling stars
      that traveled 51 years

      That gave me chills.

      Thank you for sharing

    • You did it!! So cool! Love the song Adelphina and Gus.
      Hoping on more 🙏

      • Hey chica! Thank you!
        I was terrified posting this, had a stomach ache and everything! Hahaha
        Turns out I didn’t have a heart attack so it all went great.
        My son has his set up in his room and helped immensely!

        I’ve also started going to open mic night for poetry in my community
        Now that almost gave me a heart attack!

        I love all of your music so thank you for the inspiration:)

        • I’m so glad you posted it! I’ve been checking in every now and then after you told me about it. Can’t believe I almost missed it… 😓

          Ooh open mics for poetry? I don’t even have a clue if that’s a thing where I live.
          That sounds awesome! I might have to research that.

          I’m so happy you like the music I post 💕
          I could never sing though 🫣
          Respect to you! And your son!

    • As we would say back in the day, “I’ll give it a 99.8. It’s got heart, it’s got soul, and a beat you can dance too.” So where can I get the album?? Tell me there’s an album. Way to go Adelphina, Gus and Ricky. Rock On!! -Curt

      • Hahah! Thank you Curt!
        This was quite the opportunity to do a coop with Gus.
        Never in a million years did I see this coming. I’m so glad I saw it through.
        Thanks again for the awesome comment!

    • @anyone doubting the power of coops/update
      Posted on StarsRite And SongUTD (very very small forum) but still 66 listens.
      Plus posted on Gitaarnet.nl/forum.
      The counter there says 245, so a steady 20 people (musicians) per day who come to listen to this.

      A very nice way to start a new week!
      Kind regards, Gus

    • This takes me back to the early days of MTV…has that feel to it. Makes me wish I could still sing. Nicely done, both of you!

    • Hey, I just found this, it’s not bad. Your voice sounds pretty good for someone who isn’t a professional singer. Better than I anticipated. I wouldn’t mind hearing another one in the future. Great job, Adelly!!!

  • The bass line.. The message.. What else do you need to know??? Appreciate you.

    Damian
