StarViking: Blackened Bones Lyric Video (2019 NSW Fires Australia)





https://sandybigara.bandcamp.com/track/blackened-bones



So I felt a song and had to get it out.

This is for the burning earth, the koalas, the animals, the plants, the sacred spaces burning up.

This is for the spiritual ones, those who have held space for this land as it is consumed but not destroyed by the fire.

For the Volunteers who have manned shelters, donated food, water, clothes, times and love.

This is for the custodians who danced under the smoky skies to ask for help, to lay themselves bare and call out as one.

This is for the Firies who are laying their lives on the line minute by minute. Bravery in the face of the most aggressive and wild flames.

This is for the people who have been displaced. For the lost homes. For the memories, photographs, toys, clothes, chairs, kitchen tables... that will never be seen or felt again, only in memory.

And this is for those who I have forgotten to mention.

Blackened Bones


In the very heart of me,

In the eye of the storm, I see

Changes

(wait)

When the moon is high,

The sky full‘clouds, and little me

Changes

(wait)

Ooh Ooh Ooh

Changing

Ooh Ooh OOh

Changing

(wait)

(wait)

Feel your soul rise, up

Feel your heart fill up

Feel your feet walk on

Feel your hands hold on

(wait)

Rising sun, on land undone.

Scarred like blackened bones.

Running hands along me now

Goddess becomes Crone...

Rising sun, on land undone.

Scarred like blackened bones.

Running hands along me now

Goddess becomes Crone...

StarViking: The Seven Sisters Lyric Video





A cinematic love song, dedicated to every person who has ever sent a loved one off to war... with no assured promise of their return.

The chorus of the song is over 2000 years old! Derived from a poem for Seafarers, by the Greek Poet Hesiod.

StarViking: Far Below Lyric Video

StarViking: Mother Heart Lyric Video





I've just played this for Kelsey and her response was so lovely! She giggled at the end and I got the sweetest "look" she's happy with it and that's all that matters
Anthemic, and based on a poem about a day that we spent together, Kelsey has been my "little mother" since she was about 18 months old. She has looked out for me, counseled me through hard times, and has told me a few times that she feels she was my Mum "ïn another time"
This song is about remembering and nurturing our Mother Spirit.
