So my honoured friends You have seen and experienced the sacred Like the dandelion and like the deer We have learned from nature the law of unity to nurture the seed All life shows the wisdom that allows it to continue Life, through this humble stillness Gushing up pouring out into the deep A vibration, sweet and unmistakable A voice can be felt through these blended senses Here now and forever surrendering The eye cannot see the eye Nor can the ear hear the ear As your light of life gushes A shower of rose petals, like smouldering embers Wash away your weakness Here, now and forever surrendering Pouring out into the deep, a vibration, sweet and unmistakable Stronger than the lion as your light of life gushes Nature's secret curve, the sperm head The acorn grows and develops at the time of ovulation The voice recorded as a true sine wave Simultaneously the universe stops forming The eye cannot see the eye Nor can the ear hear the ear The newly arisen placed in the context of the past, Brings the power of a realised objectivity Within the static field of the stream The image leaks into the weaker field Here, now and forever surrender Pouring out into the deep, a vibration, sweet and unmistakable A song of glory conquers A song of the future spirit of love A song of the spirit future A song pouring out into the deep Fill your heart with the song of love A song of praise A song of gratitude A song of praise and joy in the spirit future of love! from 'Blended Senses' by Nocturnal Emissions

about

This track takes it's title from the words of a beautiful poem by Nigel Ayers called 'Blended Senses' that originally appeared on an album by Nocturnal Emissions back in 1987.

These remixes not only feature the vocal recording from that record but also 2 brand new readings of the poem by Nigel Ayers himself.

I am hugely grateful for Nigel, for his support, generous contribution and for giving me consent to make use of his work.

The orchestral and solo piano versions of this track are also available on the 3rd Gifts From Crows album, 'Etudes of the Crow'.
