Requiem

A rather danceable version. V2.1.
Before you can sample the latin choirs you have to create and record them. V1.2.

A bunch of composers have taken the lyrics for the catholic death mass and created master pieces. This is Johan Jernstedt’s Requiem, also featuring Anna Lena and Alexandra (classic version).

(Parts of the traditional Roman Catholic Requiem)

Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine;
et lux perpetua luceat eis.

 Te decet hymnus, Deus, in Sion,
et tibi reddetur votum in Ierusalem.
Exaudi orationem meam;
ad te omnis caro veniet.

Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine;
et lux perpetuam luceat eis. Domine!

Dies irae, dies illa
solvet saeclum in favilla,
teste David cum Sibylla.
Quantus tremor est futurus,
quando iudex est venturus,
cuncta stricte discussurus?
Tuba mirum spargens sonum,
per sepulchra regionum,
coget omnes ante thronum.
Mors stupebit et natura,
cum resurget creatura,
iudicanti responsura.

Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine;
et lux perpetuam luceat eis. Domine!

Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi:
dona eis requiem.
Agnus Dei,
dona eis requiem sempiternam.

Lux aeterna luceat eis, Domine, cum sanctis
tuis in aeternam: quia pius es.
Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine;
et lux perpetua luceat eis. Domine!

Metoprolol dreams

My dreams are not really nightmares,
but they are
uncomfortable.
I keep running out of time,
not getting in time to
appointments or quite often
the toilet.

Another recurring dream
is that
I have forgotten to take my pills.

Gin & hypertonic

Don’t mix medicine and alcohol often.

The effect of Enalapril is increased in combination with alcohol.

Gin & hypertonic

The effect of alcohol is not increased in combination with Enalapril.

Gin & hypertonic – aaah! Perfect!

Aortic dissection

Enjoy Aortic dissection, but not literally…

Tells the story about aortic dissection and ends with a short instrumental “song” called Retarded fury.

Last year in January
I performed a general health test
checking height
checking weight
checking hearing
et cetera

Checking the blood pressure
was made twice
by the nurse in charge
then she had a colleague
to make it a third time
to assure that there was no mistake
My blood pressure was far too high

I was sent to the hospital immediately
for further tests and medication
Later that evening I was released
but a deeper investigation was started
After a few weeks I was put
into an X-ray computer tomography
to check my renal artery.
If the renal artery are too narrow
the kidneys will tell the body
to raise the blood pressure,
which could explain my state.

There was nothing wrong with my renal artery
but they saw something else on the images.
The innermost layer of the aorta was torn away
drifting loose in the middle of the vessel.
All personnel became quiet and nervous
asking if I felt pain or dizzy or strange.
I said that I felt good and wanted to go home,
but they didn’t let me in many days.

Then my wife remembered an episode ten months before.
That was it.
What I had assumed
was a serious case of lumbago
was in fact aortic dissection.
