This caught me by surprise, a new track from singer/songwriter Donovan Leitsch who started out as a Dylan wannabe, then became a jazzy hipster before discovering Transcendental Meditation from the Maharishi Mahesh yogi and staying pretty cosmic ever since.
If you’re already not a fan of this or vintage psychedelic folk — this might be a big too precious for you. But if you dug songs like “Atlantis” or his Rick Rubin produced “comeback” album, Sutras – you likely will enjoy this

I AM THE SHAMAN
Yon wheeling of great stars has cast a silver web around my heart
On an Elfin Sea in a Ship of Filigree
And look upon her prow – a sign upon her brow
She guides us on our way when hearts they go astray
Lorelei Lorelei who will dry your pretty eyes
Lorelei as you fly around those starry skies
Lorelei why O why why O why O Lorelei
Yeah Mon – I am The Shaman
Yeah Mon – I am The Shaman
Yeah Mon – I am The Shaman
Yeah Mon – I am The Shaman
All those wheeling of great stars they cast a spell on me
As I wander through the stars Linda Love and me
I don’t know how I got here but I know where I go
As I wander all I know all I know
Yeah Mon – I am The Shaman
Yeah Mon – I am The Shaman
Yeah Mon – I am The Shaman
Yeah Mon – I am The Shaman
