about

You wouldn't think, to look at me, that I was the sort of person who has skied runs with names like The Swiss Wall, a.k.a. The Wall of Death.

But I have.

More than once, in fact.

lyrics

You might have difficulty breathing
Up here, the air is mostly ice
Make one more check before proceeding
Chances like this don't happen twice

Edge past the warning sign
Feels like the whole world's mine

Days like these
Are days I thought were long since past
When I have skis
I don't mind going downhill fast

You're going to pick up speed in seconds
Pick where you're going to make your turn
Although the far horizon backons
make sure that you don't crash and burn

Don't waste attention on what's stressful
Just put your head down, and commit
The joy you feel when you're successful
Nothing else in life compares to it

about

Chris Harris Bristol, UK

I'm still trying to get the music I record to sound like the version I can hear in my head. To do this I've ended up playing every instrument I can get my hands on. These days, I'm closer to "That Sound" than I used to be, but the journey continues.
