about

A tropical tune recorded in Four Mile Canyon in the Rockies of Colorado in 2004 and remixed in 2020. A lyrical ramble through the mountains with a beloved dog. Chaplin could bark on cue.

lyrics

As I went out this morning
Butterfly and cactus bloom
Full creek and cool breeze
All together sang this tune:

Thank you for
Fair skies,
Thank you for
sunny weather
Life can’t be
-- Ay que bella --
Much better.

There’s a dog called Chaplin
Not quite brown, not quite red
I call and he comes running
So I kneel and scratch his head
“Hear me Lord, when I pray
Thank you for this lovely day”

(Chorus)

This world may not be perfect.
But still I say “well done”
This life will have my answer
“Lord, it was fun”

about

Blomberg & Nelson Chicago, Illinois

Blomberg & Nelson grew up listening to Latin American folk music and 1960s-70s American pop and jazz. Blomberg plays trumpet, harmonica, and piano, and Nelson is a multi-instrumentalist. Their songs combine upbeat tunes with wry, thoughtful lyrics about the human condition. A bit Randy Newman, a smidgen Steely Dan, a touch Beach Boys, and a dose of country blues.
