I've just released five full length albums and one EPon last.fm! You can listen to some selected tracks with the radio player on the upper-right hand corner of eights.org.

Melody received in Damanhur; lyrics received from Hebraic Tradition (Talmud Bavli, Sukkot 53a) and Shmot (Exodus) 15:11: 

A short clip from last night's concert here in Damanhur:

My Sister in California got this audio to Italy.... It includes the English verses and the more recently added Hebrew:

I'm here, my dear,
    I'm clear
        and bright
            and true.

With
    every single breath,
    every single simile.
    Every single step, of
    every single mile.

The truth
    comes slowly
        And that's okay (or so they say)

I choose
    to be with you,
        to see it through

Both
    night and day
    so I can say...

I heard the call and the voice of laughter
I looked around, I was alone
I heard this song and the words came after
That’s how I found I am never alone

Adam Olam Katan, Olam Adam Gadol
Everything that we see is a reflection
Of the Great Mystery surrounding and filling me
I submit willingly to this perfection

Adam Olam Katan, Olam Adam Gadol
Everything that we see is an expression
Of the Great Mystery surrounding and filling me
I submit willingly to this perfection

I heard the call and the voice of laughter
I looked around, I was alone
I heard this song and the words came after
That’s how I found we are never alone

Shir Yaakov - Fall Waterfall

If I had a name
I would give it to you
But to play at that game
Takes at least two

So I'll wait my turn
Until you recall
Again & again
Fall waterfall

Fall waterfall x2

If I hid a love
Inside of my heart
You'd glow & buzz
Until I would start

To love if you laugh
And love if you cry
To love with no reason why
Fly firefly

Fly firefly x2

The rain always falls
Filling the streams
The light in the sky
Igniting our dreams

I echo your call
You are my reply
Fall waterfall
Fly firefly

Fall waterfall
Fly firefly x2

I'm sorry I love you* there's no use in hiding
Or fighting the light that we are
I bless all your choices and thank all the voices
Inside you that help me hear mine

I know there's no reason to ever stop loving
The thought that you're gone don't last very long
I hear my heart say "there is no away,
of course you can stay where you are."

In your heart I find my heart
In your heart I find my heart

I take it for granted you're loving him deeply
I see what you see in his eyes
I hope that you love him  as I love you
And let him take rest in your arms

I know no good reason to ever stop loving
The thought that you're gone has lasted too long
I hear my heart say "there is no away,"
of course you can stay where you are....

In your heart I find my heart
In your heart I find my heart

I love you I'm sorry* if you met resistance,
At your insistence to fly
Perfect, unique, completely complete,
I need not compete, I comply

I don't have a reason to ceaselessly love you
The thought that you're gone inspired this song
I hear my heart say "there is no away,"
of course you can, stay as you are....

In your heart I find my heart
In my heart I find your heart
In my heart I find your heart
In your heart I find my heart

Inspired by Yaakov and Jessica's love, this song came through (sung with Josie Lehrer): [audio:http://www.eights.org/mp3/imhere.mp3] I'm here, my dear I'm clear and bright and true With every single breath With every single smile With every single step of every single mile The truth comes slowly And that's okay (alt.: Or so they say) And I choose to be with you To see it through Both night and day So I can say...
