GAMARET music and lyrics by Eliane Amherd
flames of desire
born to get higher
born to be free
in the spirit of 1970
this is when you came to be
purple haze and blackberry
in the spirit of 1970
this is when you came to be
colorful and peppery
you were meant to blend
but you set yourself free
no one could deny
your density
you were meant to blend
but you rather stand out
you’re a tough mother…
other wines better watch out
you were meant to blend
deep purple child
your color is bold
driving other wines wild
you were meant to blend
such a peppery tease
you’re so resilient
standing your ground with ease
flames of desire
born to get higher
born to be free
GAMARET
An early grape, productive and disease-resistant. Initially planned to add color to blended wines but was soon discovered to be a great soloist. Developed in 1970 by André Jaquinet as a cross between Gamay and Reichensteiner.
Nose: Aromas of black fruit, spices.
Mouth: Very rich in color, dense yet lively, black fruit aromas over slightly spicy, grainy tannins.
HUMAGNE ROUGE music and lyrics by Eliane Amherd
I’m never gonna wipe that
Humagne Rouge of your lipstick trace
I will never erase last night
Ruby my dear
I remember you here
with your dark smokey eyes
you are my demise
Ruby ma chère
ton rouge à lèvres sur mon verre
que jamais ne s’efface
la trace de la nuit dernière
que jamais ne s’enlève
le souvenir de ton rouge à lèvres
I woke up this morning
with my head exploding
your subtle attack
turned me into a wreck
whatever happened last night
I gave up that fight
to resist your charms
I was lost in your arms
bewitched, bothered and bewildered was I
bewitched, bothered and bewildered was I
comme je veux
tes yeux charbonneux
je me jette
sous tes conquêtes violettes
chacune de tes souples attaques
m’allument
je t’en supplie partage
tes fruits sauvages
ensorcelée, égarée, déboussolée tu m'enivres
ensorcelée, égarée, déboussolée tu m'enivres
I’m never gonna wipe that
Humagne Rouge of your lipstick trace
I will never erase last night
Ruby my dear
how I want you near
with your dark violet lips
kissing my fingertips
Ruby ma chère
ton rouge à lèvres sur mon verre
que jamais ne s’efface
la trace de la nuit dernière
et je rêve
de l’Humagne Rouge de tes lèvres
HUMAGNE ROUGE
A vigorous grape that ripens late and makes wines who seduce with rustic aromas of wild fruits, wooded undergrowth, bark and violets. An old cross made in Val d’Aosta, Italy, between Cornalin and an unknown variety, which came to Valais via the Great Saint Bernard pass at the end of the 19th century.
Nose : Floral aspect (gentian or violet) with a “venison” presence, cocoa and Suze bitters.
Mouth : Oak bark is characteristic. Supple but the finish is tighter.

HEIDA
Heida or Païen, comes from the Savagnin grape - which is also known as Traminer. First grown around the village of Visperterminen in up to 1150m altitude, some of the highest vines in Europe. Its pagan name implies that it appeared before Christianity. It is said to be the “pearl of the Alps” and has a reputation to “weaken your legs” before you know it.
Nose: Gently aromatic with wild, rustic notes of stale rye bread, dried fruit, citruses and exotic fruit.
Mouth: Good length and associated vinosity, refreshing liveliness and structure. Sustained acidity. Can be consumed young, as well as after a few years in the cellar.
PINOT OU FENDANT music Eliane Amherd, lyrics Pauline Lugon
Qu’est-ce que tu prends ? Pinot ou Fendant ?
3 heures du mat
dans un dancing défraîchi
à l’heure où tout est permis
au Spycher, on a tous atterris
on se sent libres et affranchis
on parle fort, on s’endort
plus de partis
les verres de rouge
de vert, de jaune ou noir
tout devient gris
on se mêle à l’aristocratie
am morge am drii
11 heures du mat
au bistrot du village
tout enveloppés de fumée
on étouffe
car c’est l’apéro
on sort de la messe en famille
on parle fort, même à tort
on est gamin
on goûte au vin
on n’a pas l’âge
mais c’est pas grave
il faudra attendre quelques années pour apprécier
les églises seraient moins peuplées que ça si l’apéro qui suit n’existait pas
la vie serait moins enivrante
dans n’importe quelle situation
il est important de bien choisir son camp
Pinot ou Fendant et toi mon ami valaisan
est-ce que ton coeur balance entre le rouge et blanc
Pinot ou Fendant ?
l’après-midi
les vendanges sont finies
on a le temps de se noyer dans un ballon de Fendant
ou dans les yeux de sa belle, c’est selon
on se fait la cour, les heures s’étirent
la terre, petit à petit, s’arrondit
et l’été prochain, on récoltera enfin le fruit
de l’après-midi
j’en connais certains qui ne seraient pas là
si le vin blanc fruité n’existait pas
la vie serait moins pétillante
dans n’importe quelle situation
il est important de bien choisir son camp
Pinot ou Fendant et toi mon ami valaisan
est-ce que ton coeur balance entre le rouge et blanc
Pinot ou Fendant ?
PINOT NOIR
An early harvest. Resistant to dryness and cold. A success in Valais with its chalky soils and its diversity of terroirs, mirrored in Pinot’s very varied wines.
Nose: Strawberry, raspberry. Subtlety and elegance. A riper fruit offers impressions of wet leather, tobacco, dead leaves, forest floor.
Mouth: Intense fruit blended with natural glycerine and noble tannins.
FENDANT
Chasselas, called Fendant in Valais, gets its name from a feature of the ripe grape: the skin and pulp melt or split ( fendre ) when pressed gently between fingers. An early, vigorous plant, able to adapt to many soils and micro-climates, reflecting the subtlety of each terroir.
Nose: Floral aspect tending towards lime tree. Can be fruity with a mineral character ( flint, hazelnut ) due to the terroir.
Mouth: Often slightly bubbly. Playful, light and easy to drink. The fruit tends towards lemon or well-ripened apple.
Pinot and Fendant are the two most planted grapes in Valais. They are part of any social occasion.
CORNALIN music and lyrics by Eliane Amherd
you’re such a piece of work
you greedy son of a gun
the center of attention
I cannot even mention
the times you’ve done me wrong
and you are always late
I lost my faith and almost abandoned you
but somehow I always knew
with passion and obsession
that my vision would come true
when you were young
you were so boisterous and strong
your body sheer perfection
fresh fruity your complexion
a spicy carefree son
unruly and wild
an arrogant child
but somehow I always knew
if I took care of you
with time you’d grow and shine
and my vision would come true
and now oh
you’re the star of the show
shameless noblesse, aristocratic finesse
royalty all the way
such a smooth operator
everybody turns their head
when you enter in your red
cherry velvety robe, you’ve fulfilled my hope
you went from sassy to classy
et pour cela, tu es le roi
Cornalin
toute seule
je regarde la lune
avec mon verre de Cornalin à la main
toute seule
je regarde la lune
avec mon verre de Cornalin à la main
ta robe cerise foncé
aux reflets violets
parfumée par ton bouquet épicé
tu m’as mise en transe
avec ta suave élégance
sacré charmeur
en douceur
t’as fait fondre mon coeur
et tu m’enivres
je ne sais plus comment vivre
sans toi, mon roi
Cornalin
CORNALIN
First mentioned in the 14th century. Matures late, capricious during production and therefore nearly abandoned in the 20th century. Thanks to the perseverance of visionary producers it has become the king of the Valais reds. Deep cherry red color with rich purple highlights and fruity strength. When young it is impudent, wild, with a tonic and fresh body. With age it grows smooth, elegant, and classy.
Nose: Spicy and fruity black cherry notes.
Mouth: Intense, long, smooth fruit with elegant mouthfeel and well developed tannic structure.
PETITE ARVINE music and lyrics by Eliane Amherd

PETITE ARVINE
Internationally renowned wine, grown in Valais exclusively since 1602. A delicate grape, sensitive to wind, ripens late. Gives an exquisite range of wines: nervy dry with aromas of wisteria and grapefruit; slightly sweet with notes of rhubarb; and sweet flétris wines, often exceptionally concentrated, with intense aromas of exotic fruits. Said to be the “muse of the Valais”.
Nose: Floral hint of wisteria or gentian. Pineapple, mango, passion fruit, grapefruit.
Mouth: Complex, concentrated, virile and intense. Acidity can be high. Rhubarb notes. Subtle iodine-like character.

JOHANNELY FY
Celebrates the ambiguous myth of Johanna, a successful tavern owner around 1680 in the Simplon Pass region, accused of stretching wine with water. After her death she had to repent her sins for eternity in the alpine glacier waters. Legend has it, that you can still hear her laments at night. The ruins of her tavern still exist today.

JOHANNISBERG
Sylvaner, known as Johannisberg in Valais, originated in Austria but is mainly planted by the Rhine river in Germany. It came to the Rhone valley mid 19th century. Sensitive to disease and cold, but nevertheless a vigorous plant. At home on light, schistose and gravelly soil. Ages well beyond 20 years. The perfect Apéro wine.
Nose: Notes of infused flowers over a base of orchard fruits and almonds.
Mouth: Vinous with a voluptuous mouthfeel. A pleasant bitterness of almonds lingers, coated by fattiness. Fully ripe harvests can tend towards pineapple. Tender, low in acidity. A dry or sweet wine.
LAFNETSCHA music and lyrics by Eliane Amherd

LAFNETSCHA
An ancient grape from Upper Valais dating back to 1627. A natural cross between Completer and Valais native Humagne Blanc making complex, age worthy wines. Its name derives from “Laff nit scha”, which is the Wallis dialect for “Don’t drink yet” – a reference to the wine’s high natural acidity and consequent cellaring potential.
Nose: Densely structured, with nectarine, elderflower, chamomile and Golden Delicious.
Mouth: Pronounced acidity and a very persistent floral finish.
FLEE FLAILING ( Tube man ) music and lyrics by Eliane Amherd
Have I brushed my teeth or was this yesterday
Flee flailing the day away
Flee flailing the day away
Did I take a bath or was this yesterday
Flee flailing the day away
Flee flailing the day away
Aimlessly waving my arms up and down
I am anxiously flailing while glued to the ground
I am restlessly flapping my limps through the air
I got hours to spare
Blending days
Stuck in place
Slowing pace
Going no where
Did I check my mail or was this yesterday
Flee flailing the day away
Flee flailing the day away
Did I watch the news or was this yesterday
Flee flailing the day away
Flee flailing the day away
Tired from waiting
purpose deflating, procrastinating
Quarantine
Drinking wine
Feeling fine
Most of the time
waiting for better days….
Blending days
Out of place
Slowing pace
Going no where
QUARANTINI TIME music and lyrics by Eliane Amherd
Happy hour just went sour
everything has gone down the drain
the city that never sleeps is taking a nap
but we don’t complain
smooth your troubles with vermouth
use vodka or some gin will do just fine
then hook up with your friends online
it’s quarantini time!
all music and lyrics by Eliane Amherd
Never is
I remember the very first time
electrified by a thousand lights
bubbles rising up my spine
fired up by sleepless nights
New York New York, New York New York
but it never is like it used to be, it used to be, it used to
but it never is like it used to be, it used to be, it used to
I remember the day I arrived
I felt so excited I felt so alive
this is where I wanted to be
so sure of myself like they were waiting for me
New York New York
New York New York
but it never is like it used to be, it used to be, it used to
but it never is like it used to be, it used to be, it used to
and now we don’t even go out anymore
because we have been there we’ve done that before
sitting on the couch watching the city go by
and now we don’t even go out anymore
because we have been there we’ve done that before
it’s all so expensive, New York left us high and dry
It’s funny however don’t you agree
how this old lady grew on me
still no place I’d rather be
New York it isn’t you it’s me
it never is like it used to be, it used to be
to believe that it
never is like it used to be, it used to be, it used to
and despite your sky high atmosphere
we are survivors we are still here
cause we have each other
we are creating our own world
and despite your sky high atmosphere
we are survivors we are still here
we’re part of this, we are ones to keep that magic alive
New York New York
it’s ok that it
never is like it used to be, it used to be, it used to
it never is like it used to be, it used to be, it used to
Money ain’t no friend of mine
Money’s got a lot of friends but he’s no friend of mine
every time I call him up he’s ready to decline
ready to find an excuse, tryin’ to get him is no use
don’ know why I try so hard ‘cause he’s no friend of mine
Money always likes to go where money’s always been
has a taste for luxury the common’s not his scene
doesn’t like to make new friends, he sticks to what he knows
money’s at the country club and that’s where money goes
oh oh money money, money, money
well it’s understandable how awkward it must be
if he has to visit folks who won the lottery
they get all loud, they build a crowd around him
they don’t know how to help themselves around him
even worse is charity, oh my god what irony, that’s not where he wants to be
just to think of awful trends, like those benefit events
but a friend of money knows
money’s at the country club and that’s where money goes
oh oh money money, money, money
but lately he’s gotten a little bit fat
and lately he’s gotten a little bit sad
‘cause you see my days of chasing him around are done
and he knows he needs someone like me to have some fun
deep inside he knows that he has nothing going on
and he needs someone like me to show him how it’s done
but money you got a lot of friends keep hanging with your kind
I’ll find you at the country club, bored out of your mind
I’ll find you at the country club, bored out of your mind
Gonna get up
Oh the music keeps on playing through the middle of the night
oh the people keep on dancing til they see the morning light
oh the rhythm keeps on beating full of life and full of joy
oh the drummers keep defeating what you never can destroy
you will never bring us down with your crazy beliefs
we’re standing here we’re standing strong
we fight with love and peace
you wanna get us down but we gonna get up
you wanna get us down but we gonna get up
oh the trumpets keep on blaring til the rising of the sun
and the people are declaring we are living we have fun
you will never bring us down with your crazy beliefs
we’re standing here we’re standing strong
we fight with love and peace
you wanna get us down but we gonna get up
you wanna get us down but we gonna get up
oh the horns keep on blowing keep on blowing all night long
and the people are enjoying and the spirit’s growing strong
Counting grains of sand in Puerto Rico
I was a fool
to think that I could take a plane
to think that I could fly away
and let the miles between us make the choices
that I couldn’t face
and now I’m sitting on the shore
less certain than I was before
unwilling and unable to let go
the sun and the sea
are not doing it for me
the waves in the wind
are not enough
this time they’re not enough
I was cold
I tried to stay out of your way
exactly why I couldn’t say
it’s just that everything was more then slightly off beat
more then slightly off beat…
You're counting the raindrops in New York
I’m counting the grains of sand in Puerto Rico
the sun and the sea
are not doing it for me
the waves in the wind
are not enough
this time they’re not enough
to save my soul
not enough to save my love
not enough to save my sanity
in this ocean of emotion - not enough...
You're counting the raindrops in New York
I’m counting the grains of sand in Puerto Rico
Knowing that i’m a fool
you came my way when i needed some affection
and i fell for the attraction to you
you had this way to make it seem o.k.
cause you never really loved her anyway
i gladly believed your half ass stories
i gladly ignored and didn’t worry
that i would make a fool of myself
that i would make and ass of myself
knowing that i’m a fool
i am still missing you and you have no idea
knowing that i’m a fool
i am still missing you and you have no idea
you couldn’t leave her side
for so many tears she cried
that’s why you blame her for your misery
the truth is my dear
that you are full of fear
to be a man who takes responsibility
and now instead to change your situation
you go ahead to be a slave of your frustration
and there you make a fool of yourself
and there you make an ass of yourself
i had to let you go
but knowing that i’m a fool...
Don’t wanna be
sometimes it happens that there’s too much love for one woman only
it seems it happens to me
but i don’t wanna be your love
can’t you see i don’t wanna be your love
your love is so strong strong like a man like you are
and i’m so scared of your eyes they’re eating me
and i’m so scared of your heart it’s beating me
and i’m so scared of your lips they are so soft
much too soft for me
but i don’t wanna be
the reason you’re living for
i don’t wanna be
the girl you’re giving more and more of your love
of your life of your love
you say that we were meant to last forever
i was made for you and you were made for me
but i don’t wanna be
can’t you see i don’t wanna be your love
don’t you get it
i don’t wanna be
the reason you’re living for
i don’t wanna be the girl you’re giving more and more
of your love of life of your love of your life
Andromeda
she said that i was born on a special day
when the earth was open to a cosmic ray
she said that i was born on a special day
that made me like her right away
andromeda princess andromeda
andromeda princess andromeda
have never seen her ever since
and it’s already a long time ago
i guess that she has gone back home
back home to new mexico
her father half irish and half from brazil
her mother a cherokee
she liked everything from outerspace
was as beautiful as she could be
as beautiful as she could be
andromeda princess andromeda
andromeda princess andromeda
i said what are you doing what are you doing all day
she looked right through me
and this is what she had to say
we are human beings not doings
human beings not doings
and what is time anyway
she sat down on the floor like she did the day before
and stared out of the window
down on avenue B
was as beautiful as she could be
i know that one day you will rise up to the skies like remedios
and they will make you their queen
and you’ll leave all behind and you will go to places
that no one has seen
andromeda princess andromeda
Steady and slow
sometimes I wonder
why it always takes so long
why I always gotta be strong
and patient
sometimes I wish I
I wish I had what other people have
wish I did what other people do
and I can’t
but than I recall
what a good friend once told me
you got to remember where you’re from
and I’m a mountain girl
and the mountains are my home
and people, people from the mountains
they sure do know
if you want to reach the top
you - gotta walk slow
that’s the way to go
steady and slow
if you want to reach the top
you gotta go - steady and slow
if you don’t want to loose your breath
you gotta go - steady and slow
Trust you ( I just don't know if I can trust you )
i found a hair on the floor
lying there
i could swear
that i saw it before
black, thick and strong
what’s goin’ on
it’s not mine
mine is fine
it’s lying down there on my floor
i just don’t know if i can trust you
i just don’t know if i can trust you
i just don’t know if i can trust you
i just don’t know if i can trust you
you say what do you mean
makin' a scene
it could as well have been you
who dragged that hair in on your shoe
you say what do you mean
makin' a scene
could be true
what should i do
should I decide to let it slide
i just don’t know if i can trust you
i just don’t know if i can trust you
i know one day i’m gonna bust you
i just don’t know if i can trust you
what have i become
what have i become
the old me is gone
the old me is gone
eifersucht ist eine leidenschaft die mit eifer sucht was leiden schafft
I got feeling can’t find no healing
I got feeling can’t find no healing
i just don’t know
what have i become
what have i become
the old me is gone
the old me is gone
Let me explain
i know that it takes time
for things to get refined
i know that it goes slow
for love to grow
yet today i think that what i feel for you couldn’t get any stronger
only to find out tomorrow that i couldn’t be possibly wronger
and i know that you know know that you know
and i know that i know know that i know
and you i know that you know know that you know
know that i know
let me explain to you
that all you have to do
is just to ask me and i will stay
let me explain to you
that all you have to do is just to ask me
and i will stay forever and anothenr day
we haven’t seen the winter yet
we haven’t felt the cold
but baby i’m not scared at all
to show my soul unfold
you say bein’ in love so deep is dangerous
it can cause a lot of pain
i say you can live your life to the fullest
or you can live a life in vain
and i know that you know know that you know
know that i know know that i know
know that you know know that you know
we both know that this is the real thing
no need to explain to you

Where is home

gotta say goodbye
to say hello
and to arrive
first gotta go
do i go east

which way is best
i don’t know how

but home is never
the way i go
home is where my heart is
but my heart is here nor there
my heart anywhere
my heart anywhere
i love you both
i love you dear
i love you more
when you’re not near
and if i stay
for a bit too long
in just one place
i feel i don’t belong
and if stay
just one more day
my heart will burst
gotta go away ... now
home is where my heart is
but my heart is here nor there
my heart anywhere
my heart anywhere
and so i long
to know where i went wrong
and so i long
to know where i belong
where is home
where do i belong
where is home
where do i belong

I’d like to swim in the ocean
like to swim in the ocean
like to be in the deep blue sea
but all i have is a river
all i have is a river
much to wild and to cold is he
the ocean is far away
the ocean is far away
it’s all the way down in marseille
and if i jumped in the river
if i jumped in the river
he’d take me down to the deep blue sea
what i have ain’t what i want
what i want i do not have
what i have ain’t what i want
what i want i do not have
hey now i float down the river
now i float in down the river
who thought how much fun this could be
i want to start this all over
want to start this all over
go back to the top of the valley

i found myself a good reason to stay
hey marseille see you next year

As if
so i put my feet into the warm sand
watching beautiful people walk by hand in hand
they all seem happy having a lot of fun
and i pick up my book to read chapter one
and there it goes
hi how are you what’s your name
where are you from how long to you stay
hi how are you what’s your name
where are you from how long do you stay
do you like rio
do you like rio
você gosta do rio
so i go to the museum of modern art
to do some cultural stuff to play my tourist part
there approaches mister intellectual
he wants to chat me up i could tell
and there it goes
hi how are you...
and i am always walking
as if i knew my way
i am always walking
as if i knew my way
i cross the streets by red light
don’t wait as the tourists do
i’ve taken off all my band aids
no more bruises from the summer shoes
and my skin is getting darker day by day
and i am always walking as if i knew my way
i am always walking
to avoid the usual
hi how are you what’s your name
where are you from how long do you stay
oi qual e seu nome
de onde e você
quanto tempo vai ficar
você gosta do rio
eu gosto de você
Now and from now on
you got dreams
they are closer then it seems
you got plans
got to keep them in your hands
take a stand
got to make them understand
you mean action
instigating chaine reaction
'cause baby baby
now and from now on
it’s your time it’s your time
now and and from now on
now and from now on
the world is yours the world is mine
now and and from now on
you start with an imagination
get over your inhibition
and then you take the first step
before you take the second one
don’t you just love anticipation
the promise of a new creation
it ain’t easy but it’s not that hard
if you believe that you can start it
take the first step before you take the second one
like i said
i got you your back just go ahead
i got love for you baby
it’s a yes not no or maybe
i’m on your side
i got the ticket for the ride
we got dreams
they are closer then it seems
now and from now on
it’s your time it’s your time
now and and from now on
now and from now on
the world is yours the world is mine
now and and from now on
