Chantée ici par l'excellent Stéphane Jacques, composée et  jouée par Alban Bouquette au Studio d'Azy, une chanson sous forme de maquette, à l'origine destinée au répertoire des Pères Jacques, inspirée par le malheureux suicide du grand et regretté cuisinier  Bernard Loiseau.

Even though we’re separated by an ocean, we’ve promised to break every barrier until we’re together again.

I wrote and recorded the foundation myself, then used AI to craft the sound exactly as I imagined it — warm, emotional, and filled with that unmistakable analog 80s atmosphere. It’s a modern creation built on retro spirit: shimmering synths, deep bass, and textures that breathe like old tape.

As stated with earlier tunes, once in while exiting music reviews pop up. They drift away from the usual brabbles into some more distant, eventually experimental, declarations. One of these (from an AllAboutJazz review) makes it into the lyrics of this track.

Halloween track with Jordan Latini on guitar. Recently I've been building up an army of dark guitarists on my team so I can keep creating deeper music. I've been on the brink of death and back again so these dark vibes are so familiar to me.

🎃"Halloween Special" by Dreaming While Awake💜🌆

This one’s a walk straight into a haunted memory. It’s about stepping into a house that feels alive — every door whispering secrets, every wall breathing with things unseen. You can almost hear the past singing through the cracks, luring you deeper even though you know you shouldn’t go. It’s that mix of curiosity and fear that pulls you in — the thrill of the unknown, the echo of footsteps that might not be your own. It’s my little Halloween spell, where melody meets menace, and the house never truly lets you leave.


LYRICS: 

[Verse 1]
Dusty frames and shadows crawl
Hallways whisper tales of all
These walls have seen these walls have seen
Secrets buried deep within 

[Prechorus]
Don't you dare turn back now
You've crossed the line somehow 

[Chorus]
Each door sings a different song
Each door each door all night long
Lost inside the house of dread
Echoes bouncing in your head 

[Verse 2]
Cobwebs cling like ghostly lace
A chilling smile on every face
Portraits watching cold and still
A symphony of fear and thrill 

[Chorus]
Each door sings a different song
Each door each door all night long
Lost inside the house of dread
Echoes bouncing in your head 

[Bridge]
Twisted hinges start to moan
You're never ever all alone
Footsteps follow getting near
The singing doors are always here

Bad Habits -Mavis (Feat Asher, Rock Mix)

Piano only draft, I think I do intend to layer some synths and such almost immediately.  (note on 11-11-2025: i finally noticed the comparison with 'At The Zoo' by Simon & Garfunkel "zebras are reactionary &c" against my modes-of-travel couple of seconds in there...lolz because the list items are politics

Lyrics:

The fools clearly cannot stop me deary
I'm now powered by Functional Programming and Category Theory

Punk in twenty twenty five
Is a giant list of rules
Like some experiment that strives
To sort the donkeys from the mules

I was dealing with the stressors
And the chill going through my bones
And getting nasty bouts of cooties
Indiana Jones
Is a fantasy about a professor
With no admin duties

In the midst of all the spam
I found this nugget to be true
That you can just meet a cutie on a tram
And form a sex cult of two

She made an involuntary glance at my pecs
And said look you silly chud
If a man is scared of period sex
He shouldn't have sex peery ud

What a pity it isn't a sin to drink water
For how good it would taste
And when i saw the rich guy's daughter at the table
I had decided
That she wasn't going to waste

Not to get too raw
About contextualizing Fick's law
But women are position
And men are momentum
So to cap off his patron's tantrum
Her father's chef was giving a rendition
Of his confused proclivity
To identify with kinematic diffusivity

This budding culinary poltroon
Spun his wooden spoon like a virtuoso torsional
He said your nose and your weenie length are proportional
This tends to trump your looks
The girls all to go for bestial
Therefore Pinocchio writes the history books

He had his mind in the gutter
But his take was immaterial
For he wasn't just cooking
He was pan frying with butter
Something downright magisterial

I'm far too busy keeping my hair and nails in sheen
But the male brain cannot comprehend
Pasta with no protein

Are the twenty-twenties going to be known
For an anticipated hype bubble
Their entire length
I try I swear to stay out of trouble
But Lord give me strength

She was an actuary
With a minor in geo-visceral
The mailed fist in the soft glove
And had a habit of mogging
And I balked at her solipsistic
Acrobatics and took to deriding her fake
Emulation of the yokel frankly it was rather sus
Her take on politicization of movement or the lack thereof
Was That Bedrotting is aristocratic
Taking a walk is communist
Hiking is reactionary
Riding the bus is social democrat
And Jogging is neoliberal

I'm way ahead
On getting her to make me a sandwich
You need to get up to speed
I'm impressing her in her DM's
Saying things in a dead language
She can't even read

With eyes that pierced me like a laser, she asked
What the fuck is this Frutiger Aero erasure
I'd lost the plot somewhere but I knew
She'd never been where she was referring back to

I said self-improvers trying to give advice
Are like here are the numbers i used to win the lottery
And then I paid the price
She screeched at me
Kind of like a peer reviewer
When you try to sneak in irony

I decided to hit below the belt
I said hey don't pout
This pasta is delish
And you look positively radiant
But as regards Billie Eilish
I'd venture that sleepy trout
Probably have a perfection gradient
Just like anything else
My remark may be out of place
But who are we to dump on her creative space

She fired back
We went to Plymouth Rock
And your idea of being expressive was
Sorry if you find the terminal moraine
Insufficiently impressive

The backers of mass media found out how to
Find their way to society's garbage disposal
They overestimate humans' entertainment value
Except in the absurdity of the proposal

Welcome to the you and I verse
It contains a bunch of lines
Instead of being rather terse
X and Y combines
Some things that could be worse
Like making wine before it's time
