Excellent songwriting, amazing lyrics, Great performance very original and good. Nice work Adam!

Great arrangement and lovely sounds, Adam!!!

Ive been working on this song for some time now. I was hoping to have it come out before thanksgiving. Its a little bit about the future and a little bit about the past.

Lyrics:


Someone told me long ago about a land so far away
 For fortune and for freedom we left out homes for better days.
No one thought that life would come to this though we counted out the cost
Now the simplest necessity is the thing that I miss most

What was lost, what was lost, I often think about the world we lost. What was lost what was lost, I often think about the world we lost

Bitter nights and winter days weigh heavy on my mind
Last time the ice had melted there weren’t many of us alive
Though a simple life and privation has always been my way
When the days grow short and the weeds are tall you got to get on your knees and pray.

Dornland

que je vous laisse découvrir. 
Nice farniente for summer to everybody.
« J’ VAIS BIEN » (lyrics)
J’ aperçois le soleil dans mon sommeil 
Il n’ a qu’à m’ emmener ou ça lui plaît 
California beach c’ est là 
Je pars en voyage en tapis de plage    
Sous mon plafond’ étoiles, je mets les voiles

Aujourd’hui, j’ vais bien , je fais des bulles dans mon bain 
Aujourd’hui j’ pense à rien, à rien
Je t’ emmène bien loin, les idées c’ est pour demain
Aujourd’hui c’ est trop bien,  trop bien

 Un collier de corail sur ton chandail 
Tu t’ appelles la folle au parasol.                                      
California song, chaise longue 
Dis, tu me suis dans mon envie de ne rien faire 
Tu sais des fois l’ hiver tourne à l’ envers 

Aujourd’hui, j’ vais bien , je fais des bulles dans mon bain 
Aujourd’hui j’ pense à rien, à rien
Je t’ emmène bien loin, les idées c’ est pour demain
Aujourd’hui c’ est trop bien,  trop  bien

"Each of us deserves to have a special day, a day when everything is fine, without problems, to let go anywhere in the head, to travel according to our desires without any borders, to be completely cool, whatever. .! So that's what my song is about
which I let you discover.
Nice idleness for summer to everybody.

(google lyrics  traduction: I'M GOOD
i see the sun in my sleep, He just has to take me where he likes California beach it's there
I'm going on a trip in a beach mat, Under my star ceiling I set sail
refrain: Today, I'm fine, I make bubbles in my bath Today, I think of nothing, of nothing
I'm taking you very far, ideas are for tomorrow Today is too good, too good
A coral necklace on your sweater
You call yourself the madwoman with the parasol.
California song, lounge chair
Say, you follow me in my desire to do nothing, You know sometimes winter turns upside down
Refrain:Today, I'm fine, I make bubbles in my bath Today, I think of nothing, of nothing
I'm taking you very far, ideas are for tomorrow Today is too good, too good

J' Vais Bien

This is the story of an elderly gentleman who succumbed to the charms of a beautiful young woman and was only used by her for her own ends.

S U G A R   D A D D Y

Such a big disappointment
I feel like I´m being used
as I´m sitting here in silence
just hurt and so confused

I wasn´t     much more than     your stepping stone
a stupid     sugar daddy     who paid it all alone

you made me     think we were     more than just friends
you took all     that I had     every song, every cent

INTRO

Such a great enchantment
your voice can make tough men cry
once you get the attention
your beauty blinds the guys

BRIDGE    ohohoho

CHORUS

INTRO

Such a huge illusion
all the promises you broke
among all guys you´ve been foolin'
I was just another bloke

BRIDGE   ohoho

Everything Must Go

Sugar Daddy  (Bye-Bye Paris Girl)

I recall I wrote most of the melody of this song inside my head while travelling and on some pre-written lyrics.  However when I got down to the singing, I couldn't cope with some of the notes.  I'm so glad Terry came to the rescue and did a marvelous job here.    He also brought some very nice tweaks to the melody, lyrics & harmony arrangement.  Hope you like our collaboration.

[LYRICS]
Skies, inconsistent skies, bring uncertainty
Rain, incessant rain, keeps on pouring...(pouring down)
Hopes, elusive hopes,
Only keep us dreaming
Endless waiting is the saddest place to be

Oh I have tried so many times to do the best I can
Somehow it doesn't seem to matter at all
I ask myself what I'm gonna do when all's been done and fallen through
Now I'm standing with my back to the wall

(Chorus)
Life, everyday sort of life,
Living everyday through the rain and shine
World, this ruthless world,
Keeps on spinnin' in time
Empty days, and rocky ways,
Far too many for us to face
It's been one of ….......
It's been one of…........
It's been one of those days
It's been one of those days

Instrumental break

Repeat Chorus

It's been one of, it's been one of….
It's been one of those days

One Of Those Days (featuring Terry Wigmore)

My new track ‘Sainte-Chapelle’; written, recorded and produced by myself. This track is a dreamy folk track and I made it using my acoustic guitar and 80s synth keyboard. The French chorus was originally going to be a backing vocal but I quickly realised that it sounded better on its own and so made it the main chorus. As with a lot of my songs, I originally plan on making them very minimal in terms of production but I always end up throwing much more than intended at them. However, I really tried to hold back with this one and purposefully made the production quite simple; just adding a few synths on the final chorus. For those who don’t know, the Sainte-Chapelle is a gothic-style chapel in Paris that was commissioned by Louise IX as his personal place of worship and it got me thinking about the contrast between the grandeur of these medieval cathedrals and the poverty of the surrounding cities. Even with these places of immense beauty, the misery of the people cannot be hidden. Not a political or religious message, I just find these kinds of things interesting. I studied it in university cos I am a huge nerd lol. I hope you enjoy.

Lyrics:
Dive from Heaven, golden waterfalls
Sing the light of Christ on these sacred walls
But what blood was spilled in His holy wars?
I guess beauty don’t conceal our Earthly chores

À la Sainte-Chapelle, je prie le Christ
À la Sainte-Chapelle, je prie le Christ

An amethyst jewel of the ancient city
A guardian sky, stars and saintly kings
But what of Paris and its wicked sins?
I guess beauty don’t conceal what lies within

À la Sainte-Chapelle, je prie le Christ
À la Sainte-Chapelle, je prie le Christ
Ooh

Sainte-Chapelle

From our 2017 debut album which will be released properly one day soon. This song is the story of making a rough time all better again, but then there is the matter of John, and who is he in the song? I thought it was most obvious when I wrote it and that everyone would get the reference, but so far no-one has mentioned the connection or had an "aha!" moment. Perhaps one of you will. ;-) 

Pictured is Yoshi who was our first and amazing cajon player whom we greatly missed when she left for Japan. 

Does all this silence give you space
To turn things over
I hope you get it bright side up
It was never meant to fall apart like this
O babe we were never really s'posed to

You know I feel with you
You make me laugh 
I make you smile
And there's no need for goodbye
I dig you out you lift me high
Oh high

Can I keep on running with you
Close by me
I never meant to say goodbye
I want you with me
Through all of this
Oh babe
We were never really s'posed to

You know I feel with you
You make me laugh
I make you smile
And there's no need for goodbye
I dig you out 
You left me high
Oh high

He told her in the beginning she was a gem.
They had a good thing going
Don't ruin it
But they gave a little more and more and more
Hey John is yes always the answer?
Look at this mess.
They said no first
And then yes yes yes.

Watchglass

If you love me keep me

Dont Blame John

Ever since the day my poor life first began
They say I gotta be a man
Boy you gotta be a man
You gotta slave away like bacon in a frying pan
If you want to be a man
Well I don’t want to be a man

‘Cause I’m a boy, I’m a boy
I’m a wonderful bundle of joy
And it feels so good
It feels so right
I’ll be a boy my whole life

Cash in hand, on demand
I got the world in the palm of my hand
It’s ecstasy just being me
You’re never gonna understand 

Lucky me, lucky you
What a very lucky thing to do
‘Cause to be a boy is to be in love with you

Back in 1985
The world is young and so am I
Daddy says that boys don’t cry
As the tears fall from my eyes
Then I heard the word on the radio
The word is good the word is rock and roll

X and why?
Just because
It’s a thunderous wondrous buzz
So be a boy and you’ll always be in love

(Piano/Organ solo)

Good Boys Do Fine

This old boy has a plan
I’d rather die than be a man
I’ll drink my cup and when I’ve had enough
I’m heading to the promised land

Lucky me, lucky you
What a very lucky thing to do
‘Cause to be a boy is to be in love with... 
 To be a boy is to be in love with...
To be a boy is to be in love with you  
And you
And you

I'm A Boy

JustForYou


Feeling kind of dark inside
On the edge just scraping by
And hoping for more
Cynical of the past
Waiting for another chance
Then you came through the door

When I looked into your eyes
Couldn’t help loving you, loving you
And I still get kinda high
When you come by

No matter what’s in store
I know one thing that’s for sure
I’ll be saving all my kisses for you
Just for you

I was lost in a black abyss
Needing more than a quick fix
And the spark for the catalyst 
Was the passion of our first kiss

Well things don’t always go as planned
Sometimes you know shit hits the fan
But I don’t get sore
Counting blessings yes indeed
Got what I want and what I need
When you came through the door

Now when I look into your eyes
Can’t help loving you, loving you
And I still get kinda high
When you come by

No matter what’s in store
I know one thing that’s for sure
I’ll be saving all my kisses for you

I’ll be saving all my kisses for you
Just for you

JustForYou

Baby of the 80s, teen of the 90s, obsessed with the 60s and 70s; an FM wannabe in a Youtube world. I guess I just wasn't made for these times. I like songwriting in the Gershwin, Tin Pan Alley, Lennon/McCartney tradition. I prefer records to singles. I prefer three minutes to ten.

According to my mama, I was whistling before I learned to talk. I played organ in the Memphis garage rock scene between 2000 and 2016. I've done a lot of studio work, adding keys to records by songwriters that I really admire.

I'm now focused on recording my own songs. I have a minimal home recording set up with a laptop, microphones, cheap guitars, drums, piano, and a grab bag of other toys. All my lyrics rhyme with the truth, or at least I think they do. 

Life is short and there are more good songs then there are raindrops. Which is to say: thank you very much for lending me your ears.

Rock 'n' roll is dead, long live rock 'n' roll.
