23.01.2022 Well... it’s more poetry time... Love’s Fool If I had a hand full of girls... Hanging on the line Because I couldn’t make up my mind I’d be pretty stoked If one got up and said to the World I wanna be Your girl Even if I didn’t have anyone else That I was thinking of But I was unsure of the one I had If she told the world she wants me It would not at all be bad Love might be a game For sure Nobody knows the rules But when we take someone’s love And twist it into hatred and fear There’s just no room for that here If I had any girl Tell the whole wide world How much she wanted to be mine I wouldn’t waste my time On petty plays Just to be cruel No matter how I felt for her I wouldn’t wanna make her feel Like Love’s Fool

20.01.2022 So... I had a request a few weeks ago.. the person didn’t know the name of the song.. all they had for me was .. it was long and had saxophone.. .. or something like that. Recorded in early 2014.. it’s called Fat. When my brother came over with his saxophone towards the end of the year, I ran through a few things I’d been working on and when he heard this one.. he said This!! is the one.. I wanna play to this.. so we recorded some sax and although it still needs some work... this is where it’s at, at the moment.. https://www.gernotgabriel.com/music/Fat.mp3

14.01.2022 I can handle rejection... they take all shapes and forms... I’ve had the silence and disappear thing... I’ve had the narcissistic psycho who’ll use every lie and loop hole in the law to keep you away... because they can't even admit the truth to themselves... ... I’ve had a simple no... and I’ve had plenty of excuses.. I've been cheated on... bla bla bla... I’ve even heard one as a threat... and it doesn’t matter what the threat was.. but it was delivered with such ferocity, passion and commitment on the deepest level that said.. "I will stop at Nothing !! if you don't withdraw your offer". It knocked My socks off !! Technically she didn't say no... she just hung up on me. But then.. I can see how a Marriage Proposal can be taken as a death threat... Technically it’s saying ... I wanna love you to death... and I'm not leaving... until you die... unless I die first. Here’s my latest Marriage Proposal.. I don't think it was received as well as it could have been, but what it says is .. I can see you for who you really are, when ever we're together and as well as when we're apart. I accept you for who you are and please don't change for me... "... bla bla bla.. I'm sure you'll get the jist of it... Feel free to use it fella's... it didn't work for me.. but what the hey.. it was a Sunday... and Life is Short... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hX-3l9qCbBM
13.01.2022 Here's a short film I made between my shifts at the 2020 Mitchell Creek Rock & Blue's Festival. It was created as I went... there was no script.. the story line was created on the fly once we started filming around the farm. It started when I was lying on the bed with a guitar... I looked up at the rafters and had a moment of inspiration... I spent more time setting up the camera and the set than I did working out what I was going to play.... The music and indoor footage was recorded in one take... with a phone on a tripod hanging off the rafters and a Zoom field recorder... the rest ... just came together. Before I knew it... there was a drone.. and at least 20 hours of editing video footage from around the property. So sit back.. watch.. or just close your eyes... and chill. https://youtu.be/7zJywwxSzy8
12.01.2022 So... Spotify has added a button so people can donate directly to either the artist, or a fundraiser of the artist's choice.. at least that's how it appears... for like Coronatime... BUT... ARTISTS... you have to log into Spotify for Artists and set it up... it's not automatic.. You can link your Paypal up to it.... In the mean time... if you haven't checkout my EP... here is a song off it...

02.01.2022 Someone mentioned something the other week.. something I haven’t heard in a long time.. but I’ve kept in my mind for decades since I first heard it... it was that old saying.. Obstacles are just the things we see when we lose focus of our goal. I thought about it for a bit.. and my response was...... Sometimes the oasis in the desert is merely a mirage.. perhaps some obstacles are just a guide to finding the real oasis In a world full of mirages, we have to keep moving.. and then the mirages disappear.. and yet we keep moving.. because we think we see the Real oasis over yonder.. It’s been 30 years, give or take, since I saw the first mirage of an oasis. I’d seen many mirages before, this is a dry, hot land after all.. but I’d never seen one that I didn’t recognise as a mirage pretty much straight up. I actually found a real oasis once.. it was soon after I’d first entered the desert.. I knew it was real.. and I drank. I drank and I drank... I drank until there was no water left. The trees dried up. The grass wilted and died. Soon that oasis became nothing but a distant memory that I often wondered if it had just been another mirage that I’d somehow dreamt up.. so intensely, that I must have simply believed it to have been real. Then after many moons, and many more after those... I found another one. Yet.. despite my dying thirst and my need and desire to quench it.. a thirst of decades of wandering through the desert... I didn’t drink. I just took my hand.. dipped it into the water and let a few drops trickle onto my cracked lips. When I awoke... the oasis was still there. I walked on. When I turned around, to see if had just been a mirage.. to my surprise, the oasis was actually still there. I was quite thirsty, so I went back. Yet something told me... not to drink.. because somewhere, inside, I knew.. that if I’d began to drink.. my thirst and my hunger for this beautiful paradise that I had found myself in.. a hunger that had grown over decades of wandering the desert only ever finding another baron wasteland over each sand dune.. this hunger.. I was afraid.. would just devour and consume this grace that I had found myself in. So I just dipped my hand in the water again. I held it up above my head and let the water trickle into my dying mouth. As I felt the water running down my throat, even though it had only been a few drops... I thought to myself... this has to be real. I’ve never felt something so real in my entire life. It was as true as I could ever know.. I’d been wandering and searching my whole life... and finally.. I have found what I’m looking for. The rest is a mystery. As for goals and obstacles.. who can really tell the difference when an obstacle appears disguised as a goal.. how are we to know.. if it is a mirage or an oasis... until we put our hand into the water... to see if it is genuine... ?
