"Some kind of Happiness": Whilst spending a day walking through the countryside around Glastonbury , the phrase "Some Kind of Happiness" arrived , which, as often happens, started the creative process going and by the end of the walk the song was written. The walk was led by Emma , an astrologer, who was guiding the walkers on an annual pilgrimage, she organises, around around the Glastonbury Zodiac
lyrics
SOME KIND OF HAPPINESS by RAVI (JP FREEMAN)
1) THE PEOPLE I'VE MET, THE PLACES I'VE BEEN
THE SONGS I HAVE SUNG, IN THE TEMPLES AND STREETS
THE NEAREST AND DEAREST, WHOSE LOVE I'VE RECEIVED
KEEPS ME MOVING ON, TO TOUCH , SOME KIND OF HAPPINESS
2) FROM THE OLD SACRED YEW, TO THE FIELDS OF LIGHT
TO THE WELLS AND THE SPRINGS, OF THE PILGRIMAGE SITES
EVERY STEP THAT I TAKE, IS A GIFT OF THIS LIFE
KEEPS ME MOVING ON, TO TOUCH, SOME KIND OF HAPPINESS
3) THE STORIES OF OLD, THE WAIT TO BE TOLD
THE HERBS AND THE PLANTS, OF THIS SACRED LAND
THE WINDING ROAD AND THE OLD STRAIGHT TRACK
THAT IS CALLING US, TO TOUCH, SOME KIND OF HAPPINESS
4) DEATH AND DECAY, BIRTH AND RENUAL
WHERE IS THIS LIFE LEADING US TO
THE SALMON WILL LEAP, TO ITS DESTINY, AND THE LOVE THAT WE HOLD
Ravi's music is the result of a lifetime exploring the edges of music through songwriting, world music and a journey that
has taken him from India to the indigenous musical and spiritual culture of The Amazon. Ravi plays open tuned guitar, is a songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and also one of the longest established European players of the kora (West African harp)....more
