THERE IS A SONG IN EVERYTHING



matt: so what kinda song is that?
breon: that’s a spirit you aint even ready for..
eagle: so i asked grandma about that.
i said, “does she have a song?”
and she said, “yes. i will telepath it to you..”
that’s how she works
mark: hey joe.. feels like i’m in a dream
like, one that i had when i was a little kid
john: the one that made you a star…ahaha….
ahahahaa…
mark: you know, about being an adult
and you know, wondering about like,
just dumb stuff like you know,
“am i still gonna like dinosaurs?”
“do adults look different from the inside?”
eagle: wait, no..
mark: but yeah it’s one of those moments
where i’m starting to feel like being able
to transmit from the future to the past.
you know, to go backwards..
eagle: ok, ready..
john: hand the cup. the “sacred cup..” (the ashtray)
mark: hope it’s a good day.. it’s really cold here.
uh… alright talk to you soon. was’te

eagle: for the 28 powers of the universe,
you gotta know every power.
mark: 28?
eagle: 28. i sang that one time..
in the sweat. so, i got done..
everybody’s just quiet.
and one of the guys in there said,
“uh, loren.. could you uh..
sing songs that we..
that we just know?”
haha…
so, i said “ok”
but that Cannupa was filled,
so.. i never sang it again.
mark: woah..
eagle: so, just sing songs that..
just the songs that they know.
mark: wait so who said that?
eagle: his name was Gus..
mark: woah… Gus.

nelson: ok so i was playing this game
and i won like 10 times..
and now i get the fastest car in the game.
eagle: oh my grey shoes, what kinda car?
nelson: lamborghini. that’s the fastest car
eagle & mark: woah…
nelson: cuz the lamborghini can go 40,000 mph
eagle: woah
mark: hahah 40 thousand..
eagle: that’s fast
mark: that’s pretty fast..

eagle: i learned that up in green grass
with them old men from pine ridge..
me and Arlo was the youngest ones there
Arlo took off with that song
he was the only one singing
so i just sang the vocable part
but the name..
everybody stopped and he would
give me the name and everybody would sing
he said “that’s honoring the 28 powers of the universe”
mark: wow..
eagle: that’s where i learned that
mark: so it’s - the four directions.. and then..
eagle: earth, fire, wind, & water
you know so.. there’s uh..
earth, fire, wind, & water
then the 13 powers or the 13 altars
you know…
13 altars
and you gotta know the other 7 altars of the stars
13..20..28
