501 Last Laugh

June 10, 2015 · Chant, Life In Song 2010's, Love Songs, present moment awareness, Songs of Transformation

last-laugh-ss5Today’s song is a world premiere. Only 2 other people have heard this so far.

The truth is I have no idea what this song is actually about… it just feels fabulous to sing… It somehow induces a very present moment awareness, a trance-like dream state, a Fellini-esque collage of images and feelings that pull up memories and connections we may have as well as the realization that “this too shall pass”. Endings are beginnings. Beginnings are endings. It’s all good. We ARE alive after all.

Sing along with me on the “last laugh” parts. The simplicity and repetition are inspired by all the devotional chants we do at Unity on Sunday evenings.

As you listen and sing along notice what happens in your body… and let me know what YOU think it’s about.

Last Laugh

Song #501 | 6/2015 | Open D Tuning   |   CD: tbd

1st kiss
2nd opinion
3rd house on the left

Last laugh

The Fourth Estate
The Fifth Amendment
That 6th sense that you have

Last laugh

7th inning stretch
Henry the Eighth
Beethoven’s ninth

Last laugh
Last laugh (5X)

Bridge:
I’m dreaming that
I’m dreaming
I’m dreaming that I’m dreaming myself awake

Good artists Borrow
Great artists Steal
I stole that from Picasso
So I must be a pretty big deal

Last laugh

The last supper
The last picture show
Free at last oh free at last…

The last kiss
Before she left that day
Her last laugh
As she waved and drove away

Last laugh
Last laugh
Last laugh
Last laugh
Last laugh
