I Want You

By Mark E Smith and the Inspiral Carpets, 1994



(The whole fucking kitchen sink)

There are already all these rumours circulating around
I think you should remember whose side you are on
No one said it was gonna be easy
No one ever said
It was gonna be easy
The pain's to teach me the barrier's broken

The pain's to teach me the barrier's broken

And climbing aboard a white knuckle ride
Climbing aboard
On a white knuckle ride
I think you should remember whose side you are on
Churns my insides
And the wheels are in motion

There are already all these rumours circulating around
I want you
I think you should remember whose side you are on

My heart is set
Harder and harder
No chance of defeat
It's not in my nature
A course, receiver)
I've set a course and
I'm the great one, two, three wham bam
You're the receiver
I'm the retriever
I'm out to get you
(Barrier)

I want you
(And I want you back)
Right now
And forever

No one ever said
It was gonna be easy
A pain's to teach me
The barrier's broken
(Rough breakdowns)

(You say you lost two stone in weight
So why did you look like that?)

I want you
(I want you back)
Right now
And forever

(The Dutch East India Company
In the the you. S. A of A
Think they can fool with their sincere yous urea)

I want you
(I want you back)
Right now
And forever

I want you
(I want you back)
Right now
And forever

(You're)
The barrier's broken
(Harder and harder)
The barrier's broken
(Next year you'll be)
The barrier's broken
The barrier's broken
(I've set a course)
I want you

Old and Wise

By the Alan Parsons Project

Performed by former Zombies vocalist Colin Blunstone 

As far as my eyes can see
There are shadows approaching me
And to those I left behind
I wanted you to know
You've always shared my deepest thoughts
You follow where I go

And oh when I'm old and wise
Bitter words mean little to me
Autumn winds will blow right through me
And someday in the mist of time
When they asked me if I knew you
I'd smile and say you were a friend of mine
And the sadness would be Lifted from my eyes
Oh when I'm old and wise

As far as my eyes can see
There are shadows surrounding me
And to those I leave behind
I want you all to know
You've always shared my darkest hours
I'll miss you when I go

And oh, when I'm old and wise
Heavy words that tossed and blew me
Like autumn winds will blow right through me
And someday in the mist of time
When they ask you if you knew me
Remember that you were a friend of mine
As the final curtain falls before my eyes
Oh when I'm Old and wise

As far as my eyes can see

Enhancing Your Connections with Self and Others

By the Andromedans

Channelled through Natalie Glasson, 10 June 2016


It is with love, truth and blessings, we the Andromedans come forth to greet you. The love we share to you is not greater than any other love within the universe of the Creator; it is simply an expression of the Creator. We love you deeply and wish you to know within your mind and heart that we are present to support you in your present and coming stages of ascension.

A question you might wish to ask yourself when connecting with all different types of souls and beings of the Earthly reality and the inner planes reality could be, ‘Am I allowing myself to recognise the true source and essence within each being, connection and experience?’ This question invites you to realise that there are so many levels of connection and communication. When you connect with a soul/ person you may only allow yourself to connect on a superficial level because of inner fears of receiving the Creator or a feeling of being unworthy. You may find yourself distracted by the reactions of your mind, emotions and personality when creating and recognising connections with others or even the Creator. The question we have shared with you encourages you to contemplate what a true connection or a source to source experience is, why it is important and what stops you from recognising the true essence of the Creator in all souls, situations and experiences.

Giving yourself time to explore inwardly while holding a focus of recognising the source or essence of everything around you especially connections and in communication, will give you the opportunity to know yourself more fully. It is your divine right to experience a connection with all aspects of the Creator and to recognise yourself as a valuable aspect of the Creator. It is also your divine right to be in constant communication with the Creator; this can take place through the diverse aspects of the Creator such as flowers, Goddess Beings, Ascended Masters, family members, Star Beings, in truth anything that holds and resonates as the Creator’s vibration.  The more you seek a divine and sacred connection and communication with all aspects of the Creator the more you will realise what is hindering your natural existence as the Creator. It is often fear or feelings of being unworthy which disable you from fully connecting with the Creator in every experience and person. Alternatively, maybe there is simply a need to develop and practice recognising the essence and source of the Creator within all.

Allow yourself time in your reality to recognise how deeply you permit yourself to connect with another soul. Realise whether you connect on an emotional, mental, spiritual or soul level. Realise if you are willing to see only the negative or positive aspects of the soul or whether you wish to know their true essence; their Creator essence.

When you connect with the Creator essence within a soul, situation or experience you allow yourself to realise and connect with all levels of energy. In doing so you can let these go which allows you the space and freedom free from attachment or reaction to acknowledge the truth and essence of the Creator. The Creator’s truth and essence are within everything. You will know when you are connecting with another person or situation’s Creator essence because you will feel your inner Creator essence be magnified, shimmering and filling your entire being with blissful sensations and light. Recognising the Creator in another magnifies the Creator within you. Your communication with the Creator will enhance and develop to the point that you will experience a divine powerful message and confirmation of truth with each true essence connection you make. Whether the other person realises or not, or even if you are connecting with the energy of a situation the messages you receive from the Creator will be awe inspiring.

Imagine if you were in constant communication with Creator in your daily reality through a cat you see beside a house, a stranger that passes you on the street, a newly blossomed flower in your garden or a person or situation which you are currently finding challenging. Imagine if you were in the practice of looking, sensing, acknowledging the divine essence within, accepting the personality and all levels of the being or situation while letting them go to embrace the truth in an instant. You would understand the purpose, meaning and reason for every person present in your life and every situation. To you, it might feel like a fast track because the actions and reactions of the person, yourself or connected to a situation would just seem superficial and unimportant. An example of this is, you may experience a negative person entering into your reality. This person creates numerous unpleasant reactions within your mind, emotions and maybe even spirit. You might become engrossed in the reactions within you and the actions of the other, losing yourself and feeling confused. If you have the intention and focus of seeing, sensing and acknowledging the true essence and source within the person, then you may still experience your own inner reactions and their actions. However, you would be able to let go of these maybe instantly, connecting with the truth of the person. It will actually be your truth reaching out to connect with their truth or Creator essence. It only needs to be an intention. In that moment, any unpleasant energies would fall away, and you would understand the reason, purpose and message the person or divine essence before you wished to share.

You will also be able to recognise that the message is directly from your soul and the Creator to support your ascension. The person before you is present simply to reflect the truth within your being so that you can be the witness.  The message or understanding may not be to due to the unpleasantness of the person; that was simply to catch your attention. Although the message may not seem profound, it will be deeply moving and meaningful. It may offer guidance such as to love yourself, to release anger, to ground yourself and so forth. You may glimpse a deeper understanding of the Creator or receive a healing vibration. The universe and Creator are miraculous and will guide you accordingly if you open yourself to receive and connect, seeking truth in every moment of your reality.


There is so much to discover. Everything that you recognise concerning the Creator will be born from within your being. Everything you seek will always be within you. When you realise that everything you need and require whether at a mental, emotional, physical or spiritual level is within you this creates a powerful acceptance and acknowledgement of yourself. Then you are able to look outside of yourself realising that you are not seeking answer or validation, you are seeking reflections of yourself. This means that you never give your power away to others. In fact, you will experience the complete opposite as you will be constantly empowering yourself and others as well.

While you can be conscious of recognising the Creator essence within every person or situation as if you are looking beyond their current manifestation into the truth of their soul, you can also practice and affirm this process in your own time so it becomes a positive pattern in your reality.

Allow yourself to gain a deep meditative state, through breathing deeply and relaxing your body. Take the attention of your mind and third eye to the presence of your soul within your heart chakra.

Repeat out loud until you can sense and feel the meaning of the words as if they are present within you: ‘I permit myself to see, sense and acknowledge beyond the physical reality to recognise the truth essence of the Creator.’

Breathe deeply and experience the energy forming within you from your intention.

Repeat out loud until you can sense and feel the meaning of the words as if they are present within you: ‘I choose to connect with and embrace the truth essence of the Creator within every person and situation.’

Breathe deeply and think of people you know or if there is someone you wish to connect with on a deeper level or wish to resolve a problem with, think of them, even a situation. Imagine, sense or acknowledge yourself gazing through all they are into the truth within.

Repeat out loud until you can sense and feel the meaning of the words as if they are present within you: ‘I trust in the truth essence of the Creator within every person and situation as I recognise it to be a reflection of my truth.’

Breathe deeply and when you are ready bring your intention back to your soul, experience the growing energy in your soul.

Repeat out loud until you can sense and feel the meaning of the words as if they are present within you: ‘I acknowledge and gratefully receive the wisdom, guidance, healing and empowerment which flows forth to me from the truth essence of the Creator.’

Breathe deeply, sit peacefully and receive any insights which may align with you or be shared.

Repeat out loud until you can sense and feel the meaning of the words as if they are present within you: ‘I honour the truth within me and the guidance it shares through my being. I honour the reflection of my truth in others and situations, thank you.’

Breathe deeply and ground yourself, coming back into your reality when you are ready.

After practicing the meditation, when you then move through your daily life, you will discover that a connection with another’s Creator essence will simply occur and all you will need to do is be observant and aware of that which unfolds.

It is time to see the truth within and all around you.

With eternal love and always truth,

Andromedans

Gangsta's Paradise

By Coolio

'Gangsta's Paradise' is a song by American rapper Coolio, featuring singer L.V.  The song was released on Coolio's album of the same name, as well as the soundtrack for the 1995 film Dangerous Minds. It samples the chorus and instrumentation of Stevie Wonder's 1976 song 'Pastime Paradise.' (Wikipedia).

Official video


As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I take a look at my life and realize there's nothin' left
'Cause I've been blasting and laughing so long,
That even my mama thinks that my mind is gone
But I ain't never crossed a man that didn't deserve it
Me be treated like a punk you know that's unheard of
You better watch how you're talking and where you're walking
Or you and your homies might be lined in chalk
I really hate to trip but I gotta loc
As they croak, I see myself in the pistol smoke, fool
I'm the kinda G the little homies wanna be like
On my knees in the night saying prayers in the streetlight

Been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
Been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
Keep spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
Keep spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise

Look at the situation they got me facin'
I can't live a normal life, I was raised by the streets
So I gotta be down with the hood team
Too much television watching got me chasing dreams
I'm an educated fool with money on my mind
Got my 10 in my hand and a gleam in my eye
I'm a loc'd out gangsta set trippin' banger
And my homies is down so don't arouse my anger, fool
Death ain't nothing but a heartbeat away,
I'm living life, do or die, what can I say
I'm 23 now, but will I live to see 24
The way things are going I don't know

Tell me why are we so blind to see
That the ones we hurt are you and me

Been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
Been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
Keep spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
Keep spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise

Power and the money, money and the power
Minute after minute, hour after hour
Everybody's running, but half of them ain't looking
What's going on in the kitchen, but I don't know what's cookin'
They say I gotta learn, but nobody's here to teach me
If they can't understand it, how can they reach me
I guess they can't, I guess they won't
I guess they front, that's why I know my life is out of luck, fool

Been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
Been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
Keep spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
Keep spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise

Tell me why are we so blind to see
That the ones we hurt are you and me
Tell me why are we so blind to see
That the ones we hurt are you and me
[Fade out]




The original song, 'Pastime Paradise' by Stevie Wonder, is from his 1976 album Songs in the Key of Life


Pastime Paradise




They've been spending most their lives Living in a pastime paradise
They've been spending most their lives
Living in a pastime paradise
They've been wasting most their lives
Glorifying days long gone behind
They've been wasting most their days
In remembrance of ignorance oldest praise
Tell me who of them will come to be
How many of them are you and me

Dissipation
Race Relations
Consolation
Segregation
Dispensation
Isolation
Exploitation
Mutilation
Mutations
Miscreation
Confirmation.......to the evils of the world

They've been spending most their lives
Living in a future paradise
They've been spending most their lives
Living in a future paradise
They've been looking in their minds
For the day that sorrow's gone from time
They keep telling of the day
When the Savior of love will come to stay
Tell me who of them will come to be
How many of them are you and me

Proclamation of Race Relations
Consolation
Integration
Verification of Revelations
Acclamation
World Salvation
Vibrations
Simulation
Confirmation.......to the peace of the world

They've been spending most their lives
Living in a pastime paradise
They've been spending most their lives
Living in a pastime paradise
They've been spending most their lives
Living in a future paradise
They've been spending most their lives
Living in a future paradise
We've been spending too much of our lives
Living in a pastime paradise

Let's start living our lives
Living for the future paradise
Praise to our lives
Living for the future paradise
Shame to anyone's lives
Living in a pastime paradise
