Inspired by a hike to the Pico Ruivo on the portuguese Island of Madeira with my son David.  When it is cloudy at the sea level and you pass the low level clouds on the way up to the summit then you feel like heaven's gate is opening and you look the from the mountain tops down to the sea of clouds. The spirit of the olympic gods seems so close (except that Greece is not just around the corner ;) ).

A Place

Lyrics/vocal by me
Music made in Garageband

Lyrics:
I lost important pieces of myself
They wouldn't stay with me
They flew in all directions
But I think I know where they can be

Hey you! Can I get back my pieces
Why are they still with you?
Be sure, I will get them back
And hold them in place with glue

So, will you give them back?
Or else I don't know what to do
don't want my precious pieces
To be stuck with you

Hey you! Can I get back my pieces
Why are they still with you?
Be sure, I will get them back
And hold them in place with glue

Mmm, you've had them long enough
Its time to give them back
I need to finish my puzzle
With my pieces, where it is black

Hey you! Can I get back my pieces
Why are they still with you?
Be sure, I will get them back
And hold them in place with glue

Lyrics :-
If it's working for you
Entitled to your 
Point of view
But it's not working 
For me
I would rather find the truth
No matter
What the scholars say
They don't 
Mean much these days

History
Don't reflect
And it 
Don't resonate
Brave new world
We found out
What this place
is about

If it's working for you
Entitled to your 
Point of view
But it's not working 
For me
I would rather find the truth
No matter
What the scholars say
They don't 
Mean much these days

Don't mean much these days

Mean Much

Mean Much - Lou Osiavo & winkandwoo

A very good friend gave me this wonderful song as a gift, with a lyric that bites hard in the heart. Thank you very much my dear friend. And as you hear, I couldn't help but let my own thoughts and feelings make some additions. ;)

In a world that rumbles, shakes and spins ever faster, there are unfortunately many fine people who lose their footing, and fall into the darkness created by various mental illnesses.
Give them a thought and an honest smile. Because an honest smile can do wonders for whoever meets it. And best of all, it only takes a few seconds of your day and is completely free, doesn't cost you a penny. ;)

Glide Path

Breaking of the snow
Turns my head, to face the west
Where memories play for show
They never rest.
Eyes are clouding down
The more I hide, the less I smile
Saddest clown
For miles and miles.

Portrait of my face
Staring back, from times long past
The blackest space
Where my shadow’s cast.
Conversation stalls
Me and I, in fractured sense,
Childhood’s pall
On emotion’s fence

And where from here?
And when to there?
And what of fear?
And who should care?
And why the tears?
And whose despair?
And how to see,
What once was me?

Water kissing salt
Cry of pain, dissolves my mind
It’s all my fault
Crevasses of the conscious kind
Sharpest form of dark
Biting hard, my ego’s lip
Laser stark
As focus slips

Glide Path - Peter & Seagull

Lyrics:

I always played by the rules
Was so sure, I would never loose
But I lost..
Really thought in love and life
Everything would turn out just fine for me
I was wrong..

Just give me time
A bottle of wine
And I´ll be just fine..

I was naive, so believed that all I gave 
would  somehow come back to me
It wasn't true..
Thought I was leading my ship
With a steady hand
But I crashed on land
The ship was wrecked..

Just give me time
A bottle of wine
And I'll be just fine..

Just give me time
A bottle of wine
And I´ll be just fine...

I have failed, I have learned
So after all this have been good for me
I know better now..
Experience is good to have
Even though it can hurt so bad
Time will heal..

Just give me time
A bottle of wine
And I'll be just fine!

I´ll Be Just Fine  W/ Little Man Project

“A love song inspired by Foo Fighters, blink-182 and 90’s/00’s US Rock. Lyrically it is from the perspective of Earth reminding us how magical everything is on the planet.” 

YOU’RE MAGIC TO ME 

Keep me in your brain
Keep me on your side
I’m the chosen one
Yeah, you’re the kind I like 
People don’t understand 
And soon forget 
That you are loved
You are a gift 
Let the pressure go
You are all that l want and more
You are Rock and Roll
And the 4 on the floor, yeah yeah 

You’re magic to me
Open your eyes 
You’ve got to see to believe
You’re magic to me
Yeah, right now I feel so free

You’re magic to me
Never close my mind 
I’m looking,  I see 
You’re magic to me, you are 
You’re magic

I can only speak for myself
listen in 
“You are a miracle”
I’m not so sure, sometimes it feels like the end
There’s so much to change and so much to regret 
Can you really love each other? 
Will you ever learn from war? 
Is history written again and again and once more or is this time a new beginning?

You’re magic
You’re magic you are
You’re magic to me
You’re magic
