Winter’s Moon: Lirycs by Timothy Price. Music and Vocals by Teagan Ríordáin Geneviene.
The song for this year’s Winter Wolf Moon is very special because Teagan came up with the melody and music using my lyrics. In the past, I wrote the lyrics and music for the songs that Teagan sang for me. Teagan had to learn the melody before she would record her vocals for me to mix into the song.
I wrote the lyrics for Winter’s Moon in early November 2024 and sent them to Teagan to review. She was inspired and came up with the melody and played the piano as she sang. I added acoustic guitar to the song, and we used NightCafe to produce images based on the lyrics and music.
Then I made two more versions of the song by adding electric guitar, bass, and percussion for a Metal version of the song, and then I made a version with only acoustic and bass guitar. I will post those videos later.
This has been a really great collaboration, and I am so impressed by the melody and music that Teagan produced for the song. I am also grateful that Teagan is willing to work with me on music.
Happy Winter Wolf Moon!

Thanks, Dale.
Thanks, Dale. This project was wonderful fun. Hugs.
Wonderful! By the way, I’m on book two of the Delta Pearl. Loving it!
Really?! That’s music to my ears, Dale. I’m so glad you’re enjoying it. The riverboat and the characters became so real to me.
You can thank Resa for her fabulous review. 😉
The Delta Pearl books are wonderful.
Agreed!
mesmerizing, entrancing: makes me so glad I subscribe; great music and lyrics and the visuals are stunning; the work that has gone into this …….
You are so kind, John — thank you. I appreciate this great feedback. Hugs.
you earnt it, Teagan, you and Tim —
Thanks, John. It was a great collaboration.
Tim, you did fabulous work on all the videos. That work deserves to be seen, so I’m glad you’re going to share them.
Creating the tune (or even sharing it with another person) was a good exercise for me in stepping outside my comfort zone. Feeling that I achieved that much is a good thing. I really enjoyed working on this song. Hugs.
I happy you stepped outside your comfort zone to create the tune. It’s a great tune.
PS: Here’s the link to my companion post with story inspired by the lyrics.
I forgot to put your link in. Like duh! I added it to the post. Thanks for the reminder.
No worries — I didn’t think about the link to mine until then. 🙂
The collaborative posts with you and Teagan are always special, this one even more so.
I had wondered what you would post for the Wolf Moon. I have to admit I didn’t expect what you and Teagan accomplished here.
The video was also spectacular and beautiful!
Thank you kindly, Susan. I hope your year is off to a great start. Hugs.
Thanks, Susan. The video was an interesting exercise and learning experience.
Wonderful.
Thanks, Gigi.
Thanks for listening and commenting, Gigi. Hugs.
Another beautiful collaboration of two talented people! Great song!
Thanks, Herman.
Thank you kindly, Herman. I hope your 2025 is going well. Hugs.
My pleasure! Thank you so much, Teagan!
Thanks, Tim and Teagan. Your collaboration keeps coming up with incredible creations. Thanks to both. And the video is wonderful as well. ♥
Thanks, Olga. it was a fun collaboration.
Hi, Olga. I really appreciate you visiting both posts. Heartfelt thanks for all your support. Big hugs.
What a wonderful ode to the Wolf Moon you two! Beautiful melody and voice, Teagan and lyrics and orchestration, Tim. Great collaboration!
Thanks, Marina. I learned a lot about making AI images from this collab.
Hi, Marina. You are so kind — thank you. Tim’s lyrics were inspiring. I appreciate you listening and commenting. Hugs.
Wow! That was great! This was perfect for the Wolf Moon!
Great collaboration!
Thanks, Nancy.
Hi, Nancy. Thanks so much. Everybody needs to tap into their inner wolf once in a while. 🙂 Thanks for listening. Hugs.
My pleasure! 😊
Wow! I’m blown away by this music. Teagan has a powerful voice and together with your words has created an amazing piece of music.
Thanks, Darlene. Teagan di a wonderful job coming up with the tune.
Hi Darlene. What a wonderful comment — thank you. LOL, I was “blessed” with “a voice that carries” which got me into trouble in school more than once. Thanks for listening. Hugs.
😁❤️
A fantastic collaboration between you and Teagan to craft this song. Well done all around, from the music to singing to the video!
Thanks, Dave. Teagan did a fabulous job crafting the song. I am really happy with the results.
I’m delighted that you enjoyed this, Dave. Singing is one thing — it’s just fun. But doing the music took me outside my comfort zone in a satisfying way. Thanks for listening and commenting. Hugs.
I can certainly understand how Teagan became entranced by your words, Timothy. You two work well together!
Thanks, GP. I wrote the lyrics shortly after the election, which influenced the lyrics.
GP, those lyrics took my mind in many directions. They’re very evocative. I’m delighted that you enjoyed this. Hugs.
You do know how to steer us!
Fantastic video and collaboration!
Thanks, Dawn.
You are so kind, Dawn. Thanks for listening and commenting. Hugs.
That is a beautiful music and video collaboration, Tim and Teagan! Keep them coming!
You are a gem, Lavinia. I appreciate your encouragement so much. Hugs.
Hugs back!
Thanks, Lavinia. It was a fun collab.
I really enjoyed this video collaboration! I could sense so many stories behind those lyrics and images. Congratulations to you both!!
Many thanks, Liz. I agree about the many stories within Tim’s lyrics. I imagined it from several different angles. Hugs.
You’re welcome, Teagan.
Thanks, Liz.
You’re welcome, Tim.
Impressive collab Tim. I wanted to get up and dance around like a spirit of the wolf moon, but my back decided I should remain in my recliner and just gawk at the amazing talent presented. 4 dragon thumbs up!
Thanks, HS. I’m happy it made you want to dance.
We definitely wouldn’t want to see that on social media. But, it was a great feeling.
LOL, dragon thumbs… I can’t shake that image. My back has a similar opinion of dancing. Thanks for this delightful comment, Daniel. This was a fun project. Hugs.
The fun came through very well. Normally, I would have to pay big bucks to see such a great presentation. I feel like I just came back from the theater and my tux didn’t get wrinkled.
You are much too kind. But we really appreciate it. A wrinkle free tux is very special.
Thank you, Tim. 🤵🏻♂️
Beautiful! Happy Wolf Moon.
Hi, Denise. Thanks for listening and commenting at both blogs. I’m happy you enjoyed this. *Arroooo!* Happy Wolf Moon to you too. Hugs.
Thanks, Denise. Happy Wolf Moon!
Creative collaboration between you two! Gorgeous moon and sky viewing last night.
Thanks, Michele. The moon was great last night close to Mars, too.
Yes! 💫
I appreciate you visiting, Michele. Hugs.
Thank you and hugs. 🌼
Moody and haunting. (K)
Thanks, MTM.
Hi, Kerfe. Thanks for your feedback, and for visiting both posts. Big hugs.
Fantastic both of you, really wonderful
Thanks, Adele Marie. I’m happy you enjoyed it.
Hi, Adele. Thanks so much for visiting both posts! Big hugs.
Hugs across the water. x
This is a beautiful collaboration, Tim/Teagan. The song captures the winter moon very well. I was out very early the other day. It was 12 degrees, and the full moon through bare trees was very much as you described it. Great job!
Thanks, Dan. The moon was beautiful in the clear, cold sky yesterday morning, with Mars shining at its side.
Hi, Dan. That’s just too cold to be out… burrr. Although it was 19 the other morning way down here. I’m delighted that you enjoyed the song and video. The moon was very bright here last night too. Many thanks for visiting. Hugs.
Wonderful collaboration – haunting song.
Thanks, Noel. It is haunting.
Hi, Noelle. The first time I was reading Tim’s lyrics, the tune spontaneously popped into my head. I sent it to him just kidding around. To my surprise, he liked it. Many thanks for commenting and listening. Hugs.
🙂 🙂
Wow, what a great collaboration. You are getting very good at the music and visuals combinations. The lyrics and music are wonderful.
I’m happy you enjoyed it, Robbie. Please take care of yourself during this difficult time. Hugs.
Thank you, Teagan. It is best to keep busy and engaged.
Thanks, Robbie. I’m happy you liked it.
My pleasure
This acoustic version is simply beautiful.
Terrific song, Tim and Teagan. The words, the voice, the video. the lyrics, the production, all excellent.
I’m thrilled to know both of you!
What a nice thing to say. Thanks, Resa. I feel privileged to you and Teagan. Both of you are so talented and creative in art and writing.
My comment landed in the wrong place… Thanks, Resa. Be well. Hugs.
Hugs!
(PS. Misha has become what my vet calls indoor feral. I love Misha a lot, and we are in this together)
Hi, Resa. It’s a joy to know you as well. Thank you for this wonderful comment. I imagine it was painful to type. I hope your hand is well soon. Big hugs.
Saved as well, it is sporadic which works for general browsing, but crappy network here is dropping streams.
Same thing. Without a large buffer, it can’t load large files. Thanks, Brian.
Oh great job! You are both so clever … thanks for sharing
Thanks, Julie.
