One For The Eye by Terry Wigmore published on 2024-02-07T12:43:48Z February brings a slower, pensive, ballad from the WAG fellas. Perhaps we're feeling a little sentimental, or reflective in the bleak midwinter? Maybe it is the approach of Valentine's Day slowing things down, or is it simply age, and the desire to capture anew, the childlike wonder of looking up in a gentle snowfall? Change is the key to being fresh in our creative approaches to music. One For The Eye is a poem I wrote in celebration of the winter season. It was adapted by Keith to better fit an easy listening composition I had sent to him earlier. Keith ran with the challenge to make a song out of these parts and delivers a song that, we trust, gives one pause to conjure up those moments from childhood in the snow, and smile. Two observations offer a frame for this song: This week, Nova Scotia, where I have family, received a record setting dump of snow (Sydney N.S. received 1.5 m), and that is where the muse opens. The other observation is that in the west, in Alberta and Saskatchewan, where I also have family, there is too little snow accumulation leading to worries about water tables, crops, and forest fires this summer. Too much or too little is not good. Lyrics: One for the Eye Too much can be an undesirable burden Too little leave all hopes abandoned. One at a time, One on the tongue, and one in the eye. Or could it be a warm iconic postcard? Or would it be much better left just as Mother intended One at a time One on the tongue and one in the eye A light descent from heaven It may be euphoric Though always seen, never heard in the falling One at a time One at a time One for the tongue One for the tongue …and one in the eye Wigmore: Original poem, music, production Allen: adapting lyrics, vocals, bass.
