  • BY THE RIVER was written after spending some time on my own, in a little cottage on the Whanganui River in New Zealand, in perfect solitude. I can’t remember a time where I felt so calm or thought more clearly. No television reception, no phone service, no internet connection, no distractions. I went to sleep when the sun disappeared and I woke up to the hum of nature each morning. It was truly magical and it felt like this was how life should be.
    The accompanying video is full of random footage I’ve collected on my phone and camera over the last few years on the road, from my first solo journey back in 2010 through Japan, Europe and USA, to more recent adventures in New Zealand and Scotland and everywhere in between!
    The new album 'RESOLUTE' is out now - StuLarsen.lnk....

    First time I heard a song of 7 minutes long, and still having the feeling it was too short.

    For guitarists wanting to play this... this should help you get going. They're standard chords with some alterations:
    Tuning: 1 Full step down.
    Em (leave the 6th string open + 7th fret 5th string + 5h fret, 4th string)
    D (5th fret, 6th string + 5th fret, 5th string + 4th fret, 4th string)
    C (3rd fret, 6th string + 3rd fret 5th string + 2nd fret, 4th string)
    D (2nd fret, 3rd string + 3rd fret, 2nd string)

      [Verse 1]
      By the river, through the summer
      I waited patiently
      You had promised, with all your power
      To come and rescue me
      To come and set me free
      [Verse 2]
      And you were running, through the valley
      Heading straight for me
      My mind was shaking, but I was ready
      For you to rescue me
      For you to set me free
      [Verse 3]
      I found a letter, floating in a bottle
      Being washed away to the sea
      Penned by freedom, addressed to no one
      For who now could it be?
      [Verse 4]
      I saw a vision, some kind of apparition
      But it felt so real, so free
      I had a conversation, a faint of liberation
      For who now could it be
      For anyone but me
      [Outro]
      Something fell apart in me
      As I watch my soul depart from me
      Now I fade into eternity, I'm free
      Something fell apart in me
      As I watch my soul depart from me
      Now I fade into eternity, I'm free
      Something fell apart in me
      As I watch my soul depart from me
      Now I fade into eternity, I'm free
      Something fell apart in me
      As I watch my soul depart from me
      Now I fade into eternity, I'm free
      Something fell apart in me
      As I watch my soul depart from me
      Now I fade into eternity, I'm free

    I accidentally started listening to this at 1.5 speed before realising my error. This song works at both speeds in two very distinctly different ways.
    Before I realised the speed error I was convinced that this was Stu's best track to date. Listening to it on normal speed it still holds up and has a more delicate feel to it. Good work.
