Marlia performing one of the new album's songs 'Cosmic Dweller' from 'Ode to Self' (independent release, 2017) **Rising Voice - 21 Day: https://www.marliacoeur.com/product/r... All objects have an aura / Mental people discharge a glow Global spirits become real / as human spirits are dissolved Within the limits of pertinence / all life can be continued to crash and stain, betray and wane / and constantly ridicule Somebody draw a line Some boundaries must be set Without the need to cross them Without any common sense Most of us don't understand why we're running all day We seem to think that this is the only way and through the years we find that we can't change a thing as we slowly become entrapped in this It seems that somebody else has chosen life for us It seems that somebody else has chosen life for us I must regain my power and reconsider my path This is the one that came after the storm This is the one that came after the storm _

Today's Libra full moon is helping out with the official release of my new song "Palisandros" (meaning "Rosewood", one of the main kinds of tonal wood used in traditional instrument-making), which I have been procrastinating for some time now, because of how vulnerable and exposed it makes me feel in a lot of many different ways. First and foremost, singing in my native Cypriot dialect; this is the first song I have written in Cypriot. It brings tears to my eyes every single time. Partly I know why; partly I am waiting to explore.. Secondly, there is nothing fancy about this recording; yet the story is interesting: I conceived the melody 3 years ago while rehabilitating from a knee surgery and being hosted in Greece by my dear friend & exceptional guitarist Bill Stathopoulos, I wrote the lyrics while trying it on the piano of my brilliant songsister Arianna Tondo ヅ in Italy, I recorded it with special creature's Benjamin Hedengran Andersen classical guitar in a soundproofless hut in India, I used the chimes, rattles, cajon and djembe belonging to multi-talented musician and top-notch father David Esteban, while shooting the video in the wilderness of the Philippines with charismatic and tribal soulsister Dona Tumacder-Esteban, finally mixing and producing it in the company of my dogs in Cyprus. Lastly, I would like to dedicate this song to mother Earth and the four elements. And I would like this song to be a reminder to all of us: That no matter how tough people wish to look on the outside, remember there is a soft, tender and sensitive part somewhere deep inside them, that got trapped there for one reason or another. By all means, it wants to come out. If only we give it a chance, it wants to come out. And each one of us can help somebody else bring their trapped part out and breathe again anew. Each one of us can help another person lift that weight off their shoulders. There is surely a way. Each one of us is a key to unlock the buried stuff lying deep in
