Grand Premiere! Alex Henry Foster's New Video for "Winter Is Coming In"!

I am very glad you enjoyed the two previous teasers I sent you, which of course, were both way too short as you nicely took the time to share with me...! I expected this kind of reaction from you, and I honestly was quite delighted by it, as always!

But today is a completely different Cult Missive! It’s the one you’ve been waiting for for a long time! Alex and I are very fortunate to finally share this unique moment with you all. I also added the lyrics of the song for you, as I received a few requests in that regard, being slightly different from the original version of the song found on the album!

I will share the rest of my conversation with Alex probably next week, since it will resonate a little more after you've watched this new video!

So here! For you! "Winter Is Coming In", live from the Festival International de Jazz de Montréal, filmed and recorded on July 5, 2019, at the Club Soda!

Your Host and Friend,
Jeff

"WINTER IS COMING IN" LYRICS

So I heard another winter’s coming

It might be hard to believe, looking back at it now
As if my world lost its senses so many, many years ago
Like old wooden horses turning through childhood memories
But pure laughter doesn’t come that easy anymore
As we keep turning around, looking for places to land our long saddened days

Have I lost, have I lost my senses?

May we be saints, may we be whores or just like a little bit of both, like much of everything else
I guess in the end, it’s not that much about the truth
But how good we became at turning late night illusions into a bright morning view
It’s never that easy I suppose, to kneel down with a smile
When we kept denying our souls from the magic shining through
Have I lost?
Have I lost my senses?
Have I lost?
Have I lost my senses?
I don’t know?
Have I lost?
Have I lost everything?
Have I lost?
Have I lost?

Our winter’s coming in
Our winter’s coming in, I heard
Our winter’s coming in
Our winter’s coming in

I wish I could say it’s looking at the sun that I’ve lost all sight of hopeful colors
That I’ve turned blind to others, others’ hearts beating their breezes and gentle kisses
And I’m laying down, my shoulders stroked, and I’m crumbling on dirty ground,
I’m tired and weary, I’m tired
If only I could stop
If only I could stop the overflowing mournful sand from falling from my hourglass eyes
I swear, I would
My darkened ruins, into a brand new let go filled with wonders
With wonders, with wonders, with wonders

Have I lost my senses?
I don’t know
Have I lost, have I lost, have I lost my senses?
Have I lost?

Our winter’s coming in
Our winter’s coming in, I heard
Our winter’s coming in
Our winter’s coming in
Our winter’s coming in, I heard
Our winter’s coming in
Our winter’s coming in

Have I lost my senses?
Have I lost my senses?
If only I could stop for just one second
I would kneel down at your feet, kneel down at your feet
If only I could stop for just one second
I swear I would tell you everything
I would tell you everything I kept inside for so long
Have I lost my senses?
Have I lost my senses?
I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know
If only I could stop for just one second
I swear, I swear
If only I could stop for just one second
If only I could stop for one, just one second
If only I could stop for just one second
I would tell you, I would tell you everything
I would tell you everything
I don’t care anymore

I’ve lost everything

Goodbye youthful shivers, goodbye
Goodbye youthful shivers, goodbye
Majestic halo, my dazzling twilight
Goodbye, goodbye

Goodbye youthful shivers, goodbye
Goodbye youthful shivers, goodbye
Majestic halo, my dazzling twilight
Goodbye, goodbye
