Ross James of the Terrapin Family Band

My brother Brian P talked me into signing up

 to perform Live Karaoke

at the Terrapin Crossroads venue

with the Terrapin Family Band.

I had reheased the song "Sugar Magnolia",

but when I got to Terrapin Crossroads and saw

the setlist, I decided this song didnīt fit.

Grahame Lesh of the Terrapin Family Band shows up

& I ask him if they know Bob Dylanīs song, "Seņor".

And Grahame answers, "Yeah, I think we can do that one".

There were so many cables on the floor of the stage that night

when I first performed with the Terrapin Family Band.

The whole restaurant scene was rearranged and different.

This picture reminds me, this band is educational for me.

EL MISMO CIELO

Song by Marcela Gandara

Spanish Vocals, Uncle John

The Same Sky El Mismo Cielo

Although it's the same sky and the same sun

Aunque es el mismo cielo y es el mismo sol
They are the same streets but I am not

Son las mismas calles pero yo no soy
I am not the same

No soy el mismo
And like a tourist I can walk

Y como un turista puedo caminar
Discovering new things as I go

Descubriendo cosas nuevas al andar
Why are you with me

Por qué estás conmigo

Why are you with me I start to discover

Por qué estás conmigo empiezo a descubrir
The simple things I didn't live before

Las cosas sencillas que antes no viví

The voice of the sea &the stars that speak so much about you

La voz del mar y las estrellas que hablan tanto de ti
The voice that screams in the silence that you want me here

La voz que grita en el silencio que me quieres aquí
Close to you

Cerca de ti
Your kiss and every drop that wets me as I walk

El beso tuyo y cada gota que me moja al andar
The light that flows in the sound of a child crying

La luz que fluye en el sonido de un pequeņo al llorar
You make me live, you make me laugh, and breathe

Me haces vivir, me haces reír, y respirar

Although you were with me I couldn't understand

Aunque estabas conmigo no pude entender
That I was surrounded by so much pleasure

Que estaba rodeado de tanto placer
By so many reasons

De tantos motivos
And from my routine I had to break free

Y de mi rutina tuve que salir
To stop and see you smile

Para detenerme y verte sonreír
And feel alive

Y sentirme viva

Because you are with me I start to discover

Porque estás conmigo empiezo a descubrir
The simple things I didn't live before

Las cosas sencillas que antes no viví

The voice of the sea &the stars that speak so much about you

 La voz del mar y las estrellas que hablan tanto de ti
The voice that screams in the silence that you want me here

La voz que grita en el silencio que me quieres aquí
Close to you

Cerca de ti
Your kiss in every drop that wets me as I walk

El beso tuyo en cada gota que me moja al andar
The light that flows in the sound of a child crying

La luz que fluye en el sonido de un pequeņo al llorar
You make me live, you make me laugh, and breathe

Me haces vivir, me haces reír, y respirar
And breathe, Lord, my God

Y respirar, seņor, mi Dios

You make me live, laugh, sing

Me haces vivir, reír, cantar
And breathe

Y respirar

And breathe

 Y respirar
