Top of the World by The Carpenters (Terri’s choice for the WSC on Singeo). This song is a cheerful love song by The Carpenters, released in 1972. It expresses the feeling of overwhelming happiness and gratitude inspired by love. With its catchy melody and optimistic lyrics, the song became one of the duo’s biggest hits and remains a classic example of their soft pop style. (more…)

Gods of the Dust is my second song. It was written for the Singeo Song Writing Challenge. This time, we had to write a song in a style we had never worked in before. I chose a reggae style because I find its rhythm fascinating — especially the emphasis on the second half of the beat. It’s about a locust, the last god of the swarm, grounded but still soaring in memory. I’ve written the music and the lyrics, and also performed the song. Hans did the production and the video.

For the Weekly Song Challenge on Singeo, I chose Scarborough Fair (originally sung by Simon & Garfunkel). I recorded multiple vocal layers for it, as we also sing this song in harmony with our choir. The other participants in the challenge are free to choose any Simon & Garfunkel song. Hans took care of the production and created fitting visuals to turn it into a video. Enjoy!
