• 0:23
  Speaker 1: Music's Lost History, only on Arrow.net. A-R-R-O-E dot net. Enjoy
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: your exploration. Ernie was my blue crown conure. For over
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: 34 years, he and I looked over this forest right
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: here in South Charlotte, North Carolina. I mean, every day
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: we would sit in this beautiful home overlooking the trees,
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: the nearby lake, and every bit of wildlife that peacefully
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: strolled upon the earth. Ernie and I shared the same vision.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: It's this forest. We both looked into these trees and
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: somehow studied the earth below because there's always something very
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: spiritual going on. The lyrics from Ernie's Forest. We both
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: received an amazing amount of energy, and I put all
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: of my trust and skills as a student into what
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: he was willing to share with me. These aren't my words.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: These are the lyrics from Ernie's Forest. Chapter number 453,
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: October 27, 2024. I take several transition walks through this
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: forest every single week, mainly because there's something here that
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: keeps calling me out to hear whatever it wants to release.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: Like so many things, if I don't document it as
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: it's happening, that moment is going to quietly whisk itself away.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: I began a journey a few years back called vocal defragging.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: Now the goal on this was to capture the very
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: moment that something is happening as I walk through this forest.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: And by the time I get to the editing part
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: of it, which is about three or four months down
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: the road, that's how many moments that a human being
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: can miss. I mean, sitting inside this studio, listening to
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: what the forest was willing to share is always an
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: unexpected experience because the human memory lately is can only
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: hold on to so much. Everything else is based on
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: a true story. Think about that. 32 years of daily writing,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: and in reality, the interpretation is this is based on
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: a true story. I will never say these words are
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: my lyrics. They are what comes from this forest. But
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: let's go back to that one little area where you're
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: receiving something new. And everything you speak of from that
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: moment on is really just based on a true story.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Unless you have captured it like I have with a
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: vocal defrag, which is on this phone. It is a
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: digital device. And as I'm going through this force and
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: you can physically hear the moment taking place, that's the
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: true story. I can't go back and recreate that. But
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: with a writing instrument, yeah, I can do that. It's
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: taking a moment. In fact, I'm very guilty of this
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: thing called hidden speak. If it's negative as a creative mind,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: I'm going to figure out a way to turn it around.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: It was Roman Gabriel, the great quarterback from the Los
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Angeles Rams, who sat with me one day because we
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: worked together for many years. And he would say, you know.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: That bad mood that you're in, you can turn it
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: around because having that bad mood requires more energy than
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: just being happy. That changed me. And that's how I
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: walk into this forest every day. And that's what I'm
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: trying to share with you is learning how to take
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: things that are based upon your true story. and make
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: them an actuality. Even if it's good, bad, ugly, a twisty,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: a turny, something that made you upside down, there's still
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: something there that you're supposed to carry forward. And really,
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: are you the boss of your own machine? Are you
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: truly in control of where you're walking? Those are the
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: questions that you need to ask yourself as you take
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: your stroll through a park. Through a mall? Through your business?
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: Your mind is already taking off, but are you ignoring it?
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: I'm Errol. These are not my words. These are the
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: lyrics from Ernie's Forest.
