Be In a New Music Video

 

Sunday,  July 20    11:30 am - 1 pm

 

Gonzales Beach, Victoria

Organized by Mary Lloyd and Renn Butler, this Silent DJ beach dance will be a fun dancing event, as well as an opportunity to be in two music videos: “The Dream is Back” and “Loving Heart Solution” by World Rock Devotion (Renn and Todd Butler’s songwriting project).

Admission is $10 and you will receive a set of headphones. Wear fun and colorful clothing, and a change of top for variety partway through, if you want.

Hope to see you there!


                                                                  Lyrics

It is not necessary to learn these lyrics and most people won't, which is totally fine.  :-)

But if you want to learn the lyrics in bold below (the chorus and bridge parts), you can lip sync them with a few other people during the filming, and you will appear in more shots in the videos. (But everyone who comes will be in some of the shots.)   :-)

 

Let me know if you would like to hear the music in advance. Email: rennbutler@shaw.ca. :-) 

Loving Heart Solution

 

Mr. Jones preaches on from house to house

Working hard to be one of the chosen few

He raised eight kids, the way they told him to

His favorites didn’t make it, they just couldn’t take it

 

Connie is a / lab technician

Supervisor of / vivisection

Thought she was makin’ a better world, but instead

She’s got those monkeys screamin’ in her head!

 

Be a part of the synergy solution

Take a chance on your inner / evolution

Put your heart into a we-all-win solution

Feel the power of the inner revolution

 

Bob stopped believin’ in anything

He says it’s all a big conspiracy

He sees right through every facade

Of everything except himself, he thinks he’s God

 

Free, free

Free, free, free

 

Burn down the structures of your crumbling inner prisons

Storm the Bastille locking out your higher vision

Every heart is needed for the world to awaken

Look beyond the black and white and see what you can bring  

 

Let the old world go

Let the new reality flow

Let your old world go

Let the new world flow

​

Be a part of the synergy solution

Take a chance on your inner / evolution

Put your heart into a we-all-win solution

Feel the power of the inner revolution

Note: The idea of inner revolution refers to the process of emotional healing and resolution of trauma that occurs during deep and systematic self-exploration.

The Dream is Back

​

The sun is out and old Dan’s sittin’ under his favorite tree

From the cappuccino bars the young people look at him curiously

They think he’s crazy, just another leftover from the Sixties

But if you take the time to listen, he’s longing to tell someone

 

He was here as a young man when it all / began

When a new sun blazed its promise on the land

A generation had a dream, a feeling that would last forever, it seemed

But when the curtain came down in ’72, he knew what he had to do

 

I believe in friendship and love, I believe in good things from above

We can be connected and free, create a caring world to be

Deep down I still believe in Beatles

I believe in you and me, you and me

 

In the heart of the sanest, loneliest man

He can feel something familiar and freeing

A new spirit stirring, a gentle dawn from West to East

  

But it’s a sad life when you’re the only one who remembers    

How it used to be

It’s lonely when you’re the only one, the last ember                                  

The way it could be

The spirit that he kept alive didn’t die, didn’t die

The love that we have inside is still there, don’t hide it

 

I believe in friendship and love, I believe in good things from above

We can be connected and free, create a caring world to be

Deep down I still believe in Beatles

I believe in you and me, you and me

 

When the last Be-In was over and the clouds rolled slowly across the sky

He had nowhere else to go, he just couldn’t say goodbye

 

The dream is back, the dream is back

The dream is back, what can we say 

The dream is back, this time to stay

The dream is back, what can we say

The dream is back, this time to stay

 

​The dream is back, what can we say? 

The dream is back, this time to stay   

The dream is back, the dream is back
