Dear listeners,
An older coop this time. And a very interesting coop as well, if I may say so.
Kozo wrote the lyrics. And what a beautiful place of work it is. She knew, with wisdom beyond her age, that with a love like this some damage is to be expected.
I asked Kozo:
How would you like it if I ask a woman to sing this. You’ve already guessed her answer.
Blues world is considering Chris to be the best singer on the European continent.
Of course. After voting Jan Akkerman as the best guitar player in the world, they choose their words carefully.
At the time I wrote this song, I was having some talks with Peer Borgers (from a very very talented family, all musicians).We thought that the soloing most guitarists did was highly overrated. A song without solos, therefore.
The jazz mix is the exact same song as this one. Only mixed differently.

Katrina II
[Chorus]
Katrina, ain’t no surprise they named a storm after you
You catch my eyes with everything that you do
You’re beautiful, it’s true, but so dangerous too
Oh Katrina
Katrina, won’t you step closer and blow me away
I’m hanging on to every word that you say
Yeah you can ruin my life while making my day
Oh Katrina
Won’t you please move my way
Please move my way
[Verse]
Oh I knew it from the moment I saw her
That I’d never be the same
I’ve known ever since the day I met her
She’d be the cause of all my pain
But she drew me in with the sweetest kiss
Into this rain
Now there’s no turning back, no escaping this
She’s a fucking hurricane
[Chorus]
Katrina, ain’t no surprise they named a storm after you
You catch my eyes with everything that you do
You’re beautiful, it’s true, but so dangerous too
Oh Katrina
Katrina, won’t you step closer and blow me away
I’m hanging on to every word that you say
You can ruin my life while making my day
Oh Katrina
Won’t you please move my way
Please move my way

Hi
I really liked how you expressed the hurricane Katrina, I was in Beaumont when it hit. I was doing my Masters.
How much do you manage. For me life with husband is most prestigious because he enters the life after we become adult. And parents are always with you in any terrible situation. Kids stay with us still we end. I was in depression yesterday why i am suffering i see my own happiness in that suffering which has become routine.

Hi U.,
Hope this finds you well.
Thank you for your kind hearted reply!
Hope your Wednesday will be beautiful and sun shiny!
Kind regards, Gus
Hi Gus,
I listened to this in my car during lunch today!
The guitar in this is amazing, the whole song really.
Rock on!
Chère A.,
Lovely to hear from you!
A small technical hiccup prevents me from doing what I promised.
To post our coop.
A few days patience and I’ll have solved it.
Don’t worry. Your vocals are just fine!
This is an older coop.
And a very successful one too.
It has harvested some 16.000 listens, part of it pre Covid.
Kozo asked to rattle windows and doors. And I loved doing my best to get that effect.
Grateful for your time to listen and reply.
Warm greetings from Springlike (at long last) Amsterdam, Gus
This is amazing you two. OMG I love it
Chère F.,
Sorry:
I don’t like contradicting you, but:
Lyrics: Kozo Pinkwillow
Voice: Chris Spruit
Backing and mixing: Gus
May I ask you to ask me (as Drieks opened one of her fantastic songs) what I would love to be possible in StarsRite?
That’s a corner for real (not AI) self written songs. Or coops between StarsRite writers? Like this one.
With the tsunami of other posts in audio & video, coops like this disappear in no time from the radar.
And some songs like the upcoming and lovely one with Adelphine deserve a better fate.
Thank you for your listen and your work for StarsRite!
Warme greetings, Gus
Hi Gus, sorry for my assumption. the song is still amazing. Since the site is growing, we will discuss adding more to the site. It does take time. We take all request and suggestions seriously.;))
