018 may 2018 april 2018 march 2018 february 2018 january 2018 reading right now search search follow month june 2024 gudrun gunnars vögguvísa lullaby hey people last december i wrote here about how excited i was to re discover an album of icelandic covers of cornelis vreeswijk s songs recorded by gudrun gunnars i shared one of them called morgunglenna a translation of my favourite song by cornelis grimasch om morgonen today i thought i d like to share yet another song from that album my second favourite it is a translation of a lullaby that cornelis wrote for his son jack i featured the original explored its themes a bit and shared my literal translation of it in this post as you may be aware jack vreeswijk who sadly passed away in april last year was also a singer and songwriter and covered a lot of his father s songs including this one if you like this you might also want to check out this live version by jack that i featured in the past and if you still want more jack wrote quite a similarly themed lullaby himself called lilleman little man sadly i have no idea how different this translation is from the original as i don t speak icelandic posted on june 26 2024

saoirse mná na héireann women of ireland hey people here s my overdue song of the day pick for sunday it s from the irish harpist lynn saoirse whose music appears on my blog regularly especially her renditions of turlough o carolan s tunes i ve shared this particular song in other versions before sung by celtic woman and also played on the harp by aryeh frankfurter and in those posts i shared more about the song s background posted on june 18 2024 categories bibiel hears things tags celtic celtic music ireland irish music lynn saoirse women leave a comment on song of the day 16th june lynn saoirse mná na héireann women of ireland anne briggs living by the water hey people today i thought i d share this pensive and quite idyllic feeling song by anne briggs which first came out on her eponymous album in 1971 it is one of two songs on that album which anne wrote herself the other one by the way is called go your way and i shared it a couple of years ago sung by scottish singer julie fowlis i shared anne briggs s rendition of she moved through the fair last year and in that post i wrote a bit about her and her short but very influential career this song from what i ve read was inspired by anne s experience in summer of 1967 when she spent a few weeks on a beach in the west of ireland all alone that sounds like such a cool holiday to me this song has always had a very appealing hermit vibe to me in this song anne accompanies herself on the bouzouki which she also learned to play around that time posted on june 8 2024 categories bibiel hears things tags british music english english music summer water leave a comment on anne briggs living by the water bibiel hears things griff lynch kombucha hi hi hi people do i have news for you griff lynch is making music again yaaaayyyy but first let s recap a bit for clarity maybe and explain why i m making such a big deal out of it those of you who have been familiar with my blog for a while might recall that since february this year i ve had a new faza peep which is griff lynch btw if you re new here and don t know what a faza is and find this post confusing you might want to click that link as it might just explain some things for you so far i ve shared one song by griff s band yr ods and one of his solo singles as part of my bibiel hears things series the initial peak of this faza is still going strong for me however one thing i d never mentioned on my blog regarding griff and my faza on him was that he d actually been mia from making music for a couple of years this to be honest i found quite concerning for one thing it s hard to sustain a faza long term when your faza peep is basically inactive but also i was just plain worried because i care about my faza peeps to me as someone who just got to know griff and his work on a somewhat deeper level this year it seemed like he d been very active and doing all kinds of things only to suddenly go virtually radio silent for 2 3 years i thought he maybe just got burnt out and quit deciding to get a normal mediocre job instead while i could totally understand that it would nonetheless be such a flipping shame so when i d heard nothing new about him or from him in those few months a large part of my brain gradually came to terms with the fact that he s probably not coming back any time soon well now imagine my sheer surprise and shock when two weeks ago i learned that griff is coming back i d been so sure that it wouldn t happen at least not while this faza of mine was still the dominant one that at first i thought i had to be hallucinating i just couldn t believe it perhaps you d be inclined to say gentle reader that i was overreacting after all i have only had this faza for less than half a year and it s not like he d been absolutely completely quiet all those three years he wrote and directed a welsh language short film and last year released two songs with his siblings casi and lewys wyn as a trio called main man but nonetheless for the most part we heard very little about griff during that time especially in the last five months this gave me the impression that he wasn t doing much anymore so for someone with my perspective it felt like waking up from an unpleasant dream disturbing but not quite a nightmare where things aren t as they should be and in the dream you know they ll never be normal again then you wake up and realise phew it was just a dream how cool that i woke up and it s not like that for real you get this rush of relief and happiness and silently vow never to take this thing the thing that was off in the dream for granted again not sure how understandable this analogy is going to be for most people but i get dreams like that quite often from which it s a sheer pleasure to wake up and this experience has been kind of similar so despite not knowing griff all that well prior to last february it feels like that break was longer than three years so his comeback feels like a big deal to me deserving of as much fuss as possible like the fuss enya fans make whenever she releases a new album after a decade after everyone had decided that this time she surely must have ran out of ideas and is not going to release anything new like the fuss all the traditional folkies of england were making when shirley collins came back to singing after 40 years or so something that no one would have expected to happen like the fuss around elvis presley after his seven year hiatus lol i can t come up with anymore examples but yeah i m so relieved just try to tell me again that my defensive pessimism doesn t work last week griff has released his first single after the hiatus and early next year he will release his first album which i am really looking forward to he is also going to play some gigs again i ve seen that he s set to perform during tafwyl an annual welsh language music festival held in cardiff as well as sŵn which is also a cardiff based festival i want to share griff s new single kombucha with you it s been a week since it came out but whenever my faza peeps release something new i always need some time with it even if it s just a single before i share it on the blog assuming that i decide to do it at all just to get a better idea of it and explore how i feel about it today or rather yesterday because i started writing this before midnight the video for the song came out too unfortunately it s completely lost on me because i obviously can t see it but i figured it s a good time to finally feature the song here especially since it doesn t seem to be getting a lot of attention so far which is so unfair the whole of wales should be talking about this in my view or maybe they are but they do so on social media on which i don t exist so i don t know to my knowledge it seems like i m the first person writing a post about this song in english which feels weird absurd and intimidating to think about but it s yet another thing that proves my relatively recent conclusion that i always like to make things more challenging for myself just because needless to say i like this song it s slightly different from griff s previous solo singles musically it has string arrangements created by owain llwyd as griff told the welsh language music website klust he wanted to have a live element to some of the songs lyrically as far as i can tell i m a welsh learner as you know and don t understand all of his songs perfectly yet this is griff s happiest most lighthearted song to date even though not without some subtle underlying anxiety in my perception those of you who have followed my blog and the bibiel hears things series for a while or those who know me likely know by now that i am one of the first people in the world to appreciate a thoroughly depressing song but happy songs are just as cool i especially like it when my faza peeps write or sing happy songs because there s a decent chance they come from a happy place and i obviously like it when my faza peeps are happy and it is so insanely catchy and sticks to your brain hahaha in the aforementioned post from klust griff was quoted as saying he wrote the melody and the riffs for this song in 2021 a few days after the green man festival which was the first festival in wales after the lockdown so the song captures some of that euphoric feeling of people being able to experience this kind of thing again after a really long time it s a really fun song and very deliciously and skilfully produced but that has always been the case with griff s music the lyrics are as griff said a tongue in cheek look at healthy living consumerism and the background concerns of getting older and thus buying into the fun this instantly makes me think of my healthy lifestyle obsessed mum who has gone through all sorts of phases in her healthy life and nutrition journey curiously though i don t think she s ever had a kombucha phase now i doubt she will because just a couple weeks ago she turned carnivore which she s feeling very well as and isn t likely to quit anytime soon kombucha isn t exactly a carnivore thing still i think most of my polish compatriots carnivore or otherwise will agree that fermented foods and drinks are essential if you want to stay healthy as for me personally some of you might remember how i once wrote that my three favourite drinks are kefir kefir and kefir btw why has no one made a song in praise of kefir or maybe someone did but i just happen not to be aware of it i guess i ll go looking once i m finished with this post or maybe not i think i ll follow all the normal people to sleepland kefir can wait maybe i ll even find something good or weird enough to feature on my blog in the future kefir is very healthy especially if you have your own kefir grains and make your own kefir my mum used to do that in the past and it boggles my brain that so many people in english speaking countries just haven t heard of it it always used to give me severe culture shock when i first started writing with people in english and they d say they d never had kefir or even didn t know what it was they don t know what they re missing although it definitely seems to be this kind of thing that you either love or hate always with a passion it is so refreshing the best probiotic that exists and if you re not particularly hungry but feel like you should eat something it can totally work as a light but nourishing meal another slightly less healthy polish fermented drink that i love to have occasionally is podpiwek made from grain coffee hops yeast water and sugar but i ve actually never had kombucha i remember the first time i heard about it and someone told me what it is my initial reaction was something superficial along the lines of yeast tea ewwwww which i now realise makes no sense because with that logic you could just as well think of podpiwek as yeast coffee or something just hearing about what it s made of may not sound very enticing to someone who s never had it but in practice it doesn t taste like yeast coffee in my view now that griff has made a song about kombucha i think it means i have to try it after all that s the whole point of fazas developing gaining new experiences and all that so here s a new one waiting for me but what i think is really cool is that griff said that the real reason for writing a song about kombucha is just that he wanted an excuse to use the word solely because of how it sounds as a logophile i obviously really like the reasoning behind that it s quite a hilarious word the person from whom i d first heard about kombucha pronounced it the polish way phonetically and i remember thinking that the word totally didn t sound like a drink but made me think of some giant noisy steam vehicle but i dare say kefir sounds better and it rhymes with zephyr whereas i don t think kombucha has any intuitive rhymes in english interestingly i surprised myself again this year because i was able to translate this song i m quite sure it s not a particularly good translation and likely has some mistakes or jarring bits and it wasn t exactly easy but it is a translation and so it can give you even more of an idea of what the song is about i have marked the lines in case of which i have even the slightest doubt that i might not have gotten everything correctly which is almost all of the lines in the verses as you can see so that you may take them with a grain of salt though that probably won t taste too well with the kombucha the video for the song was also directed by griff kombucha it makes me feel great a very tasty remedy for a dry tongue bacteria that extend life and help me keep a clear mind as i grow older difficulties are easier to flee it s difficult to sum up what do i do to avoid the fears breathe through the nose lotion on the skin kombucha it makes me feel great a very tasty remedy for a dry tongue bacteria that extend life and help me keep a clear mind the ideas are half baked without the plate to be served on so as they are being devoured by the teeth grind of the day remember there will be a tomorrow kombucha makes me feel absolutely great a very tasty remedy for a dry tongue bacteria that extend life and help me keep a clear mind i will drink kombucha throughout my life keep my gut from hurting my stomach is fizzing with pleasure and my innermost
