What grows in the music bed budding

Songs I have borrowed for a while.

Covers go here: usually a video take, sometimes only an audio file when the recording is rougher than the playing. Where a song is in neither Spanish nor English, I will often set the original lyrics beside my own translation — which is the point where this bed quietly turns into the language one.

These are not performances and I make no claim to be a trained musician. They are closer to reading something aloud: a way of paying proper attention to a piece of music I like, and finding out what is actually inside it once you have to play every part yourself.
