  • The Base feat. Gerald Ganglbauer

    [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nj5wtDXpma8&w=560&h=315]

    Norbert Wally from The Base and I connected immediately six years ago at a Postgarage Graz concert on January, 19, 2013. It was a late discovery – the Indie band was founded back in 1989, the same year I had left for Australia and lost touch with Graz. So I reviewed their tenth album „Secret Second Thoughts“, and some more new releases since. Singing alongside such a great voice was an honor and a challenge, but fun in the end. I dig this song, because I can fully subscribe to the lyrics, and the tune doesn’t get out of your head. Gerald Ganglbauer

  • Spring and the Land feat. Gerald Ganglbauer

    Filmed on a trip to Vienna across the Semmering some weeks ago in January 2019. I was driving at constant speed, thanks to cruise control. The tunnels had some hypnotic or psychedelic affect on me and suit this song perfectly. Spring and the Land agreed and approved the clip. Gerald Ganglbauer

  • Red Light Blue Light

    Parkinson duet performed by Joerg Veselka and Connie Weixler
    Words and music by Joerg Veselka

    Red light blue light is shining, shining through the night
    Red light blue light, I’m crawling, I’m crawling, on the floor
    Red light blue light, I’m hoping, yeah I’m hoping to see you again
    Red light blue light, I’m crying, yeah I’m crying, I miss you so

    Life’s unpredictable, incomprehensible incredible, unimpossible
    Life’s unpredictable, incomprehensible, yeah incredible, unimpossible – without you

    Red light blue light is shining, shining – through the night
    Red light blue light, I’m crawling, crawling – on the floor
    Red light blue light, I’m hoping, hoping – to see you again
    Red light blue light, I’m crying, crying, I miss you so

    Life’s unpredictable, incomprehensible, incredible, unimpossible without you
    Life’s unpredictable, incomprehensible, oh incredible, unimpossible – without you

    Red light blue light is shining, shining – through the night
    Red light blue light, I’m crawling, I’m crawling – on the floor
    Red light blue light, I’m hoping, yeah I’m hoping – to see you again
    Red light blue light, I’m crying, yeah I’m crying, I miss you so

    Life’s unpredictable, hmmm incomprehensible, hmmm incredible, unimpossible without you
    Life’s unpredictable, incomprehensible, hmmm incredible, unimpossible – without you
    Hmmm, Hmmm, life’s unimpossible – without you

     

  • Wasn’t I the One

    Parkinson duet performed by Jacques Bush and Gerald Ganglbauer
    Words and music by Jacques Bush/Marino Acapulco

    Spring and I - 1
    Gerald Ganglbauer, Jacques Bush, Marino Acapulco

    You treat me well, but I don’t mind.
    From the well the plight is coming … coming bad.
    I sit and watch the hours,
    Wonder if I’ll ever make it home … so tired of hanging.

    You treat me well but I don’t mind.
    You think your every wish is my command.
    Once I was waiting for the fame,
    But things ain’t never what they seem to be.

    When I wake up, I feel homeless,
    Wasn’t I the one?
    Understood and punished all the way.

    You treat me well, but I don’t mind.
    From the well the plight is coming … coming bad.
    I sit and watch the hours,
    Wonder if I’ll ever make it home.

    When I wake up, I feel homeless,
    Wasn’t I the one?
    Understood and punished all the way.

    So long, hey! Do I know
    Wasn’t I the one.

    I drank the whole week away
    Give me everything to be …

    When I wake up, I feel homeless
    Wasn’t I the one …
    So misunderstood who’s found where he belongs …

  • Paul and Michael

    Apparently Michael J Fox performed a duet with the great Paul Simon, but unfortunately none of them responded to my enquiries. The only proof is in the picture above, found somewhere on the Fox Foundation’s website without the music. A pity, because I would have loved to listen to them singing together. Could it perhaps go on Volume 2 of Parkinsong Duets?

  • So Here I Am

    Parkinsong duet performed by Johnny Schwarzinger and Uli Sajko
    Words and music by Johnny Schwarzinger, poem by Uli Sajko

    Johnny Schwarzinger

    Noch wirft die Sonne einen Blick
    Durch mein Fenster jeden Tag
    Das Morgenlicht für mich ist Glück
    Wünschte es nie enden mag

    Doch schwächer wird von Mal zu Male
    Das Strahlen kürzer und im Nu
    Legen sich dunkel herbstlich fahle Gedanken
    Dem Schweigen noch dazu

    Contemplate myself in the mirror
    Mirror inside my soul

    I’m on the warpath with myself
    Really out of step

    Feels like I’m on a wire
    Cutting all the lines

    To come out in the open
    Not aching anymore

    So here I stay – So here I go
    No matter if it’s sun or rain
    So here I go – So here I stay
    No matter if it’s sun or rain
    So here I go – So here I stay
    No matter if it’s sun or rain

    Put the sun in my pocket
    Wash the clouds out of my mind

    There’s no need to protect
    My eyes from the light

    To come out in the open
    Not aching anymore

    So here I am – So here I stay
    No matter if it’s sun or rain
    So here I stay – So here I go
    No matter if it’s sun or rain
    So here I go – So here I stay

    Noch wirft die Sonne einen Blick
    Durch mein Fenster … jeden Tag
