We considered ourselves to be in a sort of nomansland sociologically, each for different reasons, but The Vosges valleys provided The most beautiful "nomansland" imaginable for our discussions. This song is The slightly mystical, and somewhat understated, memory of those days: Here in nomansland where all had fled The weaTher we waited patiently and enjoyed God's sun togeTher Here in nomansland a grandson of Adam residing in his earthly grandfaTher's home The woods and sun presiding Here in nomansland Hermes' and Aphrodite's son sings cuckoo to The ill-shorn mountain top and Then is gone Here in nomansland we sing to The oTher's consolation whilst peaceful dog and cows look on at our natural perchance divine oration  less

At first sight it is a simple sentimental piece, but beneath it lies a history of pure imagination, enchantment and impossibility. The composer already realises he is no longer feeling what he is writing, he is just weaving a spell, over an ostinato guitar motif, to try to bring The feelings back (hence The title "Incantation"). He has found in his life that whenever he writes a song for The object of his desire, he has already begun to stop feeling that desire ... it is a sign that The relationship is about to change or disappear. But The whole thing is indeed enchantment and magic: you can dream and you can take The song at face value if you wish.  less

The words are set to The melody of The Scottish Minstrel "Common' Frae The Toun". (This is a variant of The tune to which Auld Lang Syne is usually sung—The melodic shape is almost identical, The difference lying in The tempo and rhythm.) It is performed here by The dwsChorale, with a cheeky insertion of a hornpipe! Gin a body meet a body Comin' thro' The rye Gin a body kiss a body Need a body cry? Ilka lassie has her laddie Nane, They say, hae I Yet a' The lads They smile at me When comin' thro' The rye. Gin a body meet a body Comin' frae The toun Gin a body greet a body Need a body froun?
