Almost on a daily basis I am told by one Soundcloud user after another that my music is crap, that I have zero talent....what do you think? Are they right, or is it a case of sour grapes?

With so many people making music--literally tens of millions--there is a serious overcrowding problem, creating a wall of white noise; to stand out from that background, a musician must bring something very different to the table :)

Lenny 

Lenny comes, Lenny goes
This guy is free
Just like I’d like to be
It comes on my bed every night and day
(‘n) It leaves me when I’m far away

That’s the way Lenny does
That’s the way Lenny shows
That’s the way Lenny loves

It says 
No self-pity 
Resentment 
Nor tragedy
Forget me not
Forget me not 
Forgive me not

Lenny was born all alone
It was left abandoned
But Lenny chose love
That’s the way Lenny does
That’s the way Lenny shows
That’s the way Lenny loves

It says 
No self-pity 
Resentment 
Nor tragedy
Forget me not
Forget me not 
Forgive me not

Let it come, let it go
Being free is the only way to be
That means a lot for this little puppy
It doesn’t think
It feels an act for free

That’s the way Lenny does
That’s the way Lenny shows
That’s the way Lenny loves

Lenny was born all alone
It was left abandoned
But Lenny chose love

That the way Lenny does
That the way Lenny shows
That’s the way Lenny loves

It says
No self-pity
Resentment
Nor tragedy
No, no, no

Is that a ghost?
Is that a shadow?
Is that thing lost?
Is it my fellow?
It is not love
It’s just me 
Or you 
In the dark!

Lenny comes, Lenny goes
This guy is free
Just like I’d like to be
It comes on my bed every night and day
(‘n) It leaves me when I’m far away
That the way Lenny does
That the way Lenny shows
That’s the way Lenny loves…

Lenny was born all alone
It was left abandoned
But Lenny chose love

That’s the way Lenny does
That’s the way Lenny shows
That’s the way Lenny loves

It says
No self-pity
Resentment
Nor tragedy

Forget me not
Forget me not 
Forgive me not
Lenny
Bambambambambam…
Lenny lives on Mars

LENNY

I run.
I scream.
I sing.

You enter my soul
breaking beliefs.
I'm just aware
living pure love.
You're trying to be
more than I feel.
I try to sing
I run and I scream (when)...

All the colors are talking,
talking and loving me.
And I don't know where to go.
I don't know what you are.

Why can't you see
that I find in me.
The eyes that you've been,
the ones that you seem.
My dream is with you,
but you seem to be.
So far away...
and now I can't see.

Oh, afraid of troubles/travels: NO.
To other worlds I go.
Take me to see once more
the ones that I miss.

I sing along.
Why do you fight?
I heard a song,
you will unite.
You sing and you scream
and I ran from my dreams
And I sing and you scream
like a bird, fly away.

All the colors are fading, NO.
And I have no worries, NO.
Take me to feel once more
fears that I really have.

Oh, afraid of troubles/travels: NO.
To other worlds I go.
Take me to see once more
the ones that I miss.

Colors are talking,
talking and loving me.
And I don't know where to go.
I don't know what you are.

Colors are talking / talking and loving.
Talking and hating me / talking and hating.
And I don't know what you are / talking and loving.
I don't know where to go / talking and hating.
 / talking and loving
 / talking and hating.
 / talking and waiting.

Run, Scream And Sing

Stark

The Title of the song can be understood in 2 ways:
1. a reflection of the current Corona crisis we are in
2. the feeling I still have since I play this 8 string beast, that I bought myself in January 2020. Always used to be at home on 6 strings, this one is really a challenge, which I am getting only slowly under control.
 Never in my life I had to search on a guitar for the deep e-string :-)

Surfing On A Disastrous Wave

thanks for listening to my little ditty. 
lyrics.
know my friends we shall live on
if anything can take us out
it won’t be a 
little bug.
it will be us, by our own hands
and those who chose to make each day 
a little less
hard to live. 
all lost souls
rest as one. 
lets have a moment together
we might never
get again.

a moment together

I debated whether or not to scrap this one completely or just finish it, but I couldn't start anything else either, I was in such a rut. So, I took a couple of weeks off. It's hard to get out of a rut when you can barely get out of your house, but we went kayaking, and cooked some good meals and drank. a lot, a whole lot,  and I finally felt inspired enough to finish it. I've already started a new one so maybe the block has passed...

That's the first descant i've ever done in the outro, des CAN'T? more like des CAN, okay it's more of a des MAYBE...enough, I hate singing lol

You are everything to  me  
You loosened up the chains and set me free
Thank you for the love you’ve given me 
You are my destiny

I can see the magic in your smile
I’m sure that this is paradise
Slowly spinning out of time
Till I’m floating weightless in your eyes

It doesn’t have to feel this way
We don’t need the fireworks every day
Just holding hands can make me feel the same
I’m not ashamed to say

It’s the little things make it all worthwhile
Every day give me one more smile	
It’s a little bit of dancing on a Saturday night
A little bit of laughter when things don’t go right

the little things mean the most to me
A lazy day is all I need
A little bit of tenderness to ease the pain
A little bit of love to chase the blues away my baby

Look at all the ways our world has changed
Everything around us is so strange
But I would go through all of this again
For you my love and my best friend…

TAFFETA | Part 6

DON'T JUST LIKE, LISTEN; DON'T JUST LISTEN, COMMENT; DON'T JUST COMMENT, SHARE!
I don't respond to musicians that just add numbers, and i don't respond to musicians that just click the like button, because it doesn't prove they actually listened.

It is a myth that unsigned music equals inferior music; the only way we can blow that myth out of the water is to do it together!
DON'T JUST LIKE, LISTEN; DON'T JUST LISTEN, COMMENT! And support musicians that support you!

MY TUNES ARE ALL ABOUT CREATING ON THE FLY; NO COOKBOOK, NO RULES, NO PREPARATION, NO PLAN; IT JUST HAPPENS!

FORMULA THINKING AND BOUNDARIES PUT EXTREME LIMITATIONS ON THE CREATIVE PROCESS; TRUE ART CAN NOT BE PRODUCED WITHIN A RESTRICTED SPACE!

I DON'T BREAK DOWN BOUNDARIES, BECAUSE THERE WERE NO BOUNDARIES IN MY WORLD TO BEGIN WITH!

MUSIC MUST CONTINUE TO EVOLVE, AND THE ECLECTIC APPROACH IS NOW THE ONLY WAY FORWARD, BECAUSE INDIVIDUAL GENRES HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED!

CREATING WITHIN A SINGLE GENRE, THEREFORE, RESULTS IN REGURGITATION, REPETITION, AND MEDIOCRITY!

And way too much emphasis is placed on production value; actual creativity and diversity are taking a back seat! Inventive lyrics also rarely get the credit they deserve. This indifference to the talents that actually set musicians apart plays into the hands of a money-minded music industry, signing our own death warrants!

SUPPORT: I’ll show you mine if you show me yours!!! FAIR EXCHANGE!
FAIR EXCHANGE: Listen 4 Listen, Comment 4 Comment, Share 4 Share!

Almost on a daily basis I am told by one Soundcloud user after another that my music is crap, that I have zero talent....what do you think? Are they right, or is it a case of sour grapes? And do you think I take it to heart :) No! What's heartbreaking for all of us is....WHEN NO ONE LISTENS!

SECOND COMING OF THE CHAMELEON OF POP: THE MAN WHO BOUGHT THE WORLD instrumentals

SEVERAL MUSICIANS HAVE SUGGESTED I'M A IN A GENRE OF MY OWN, WHICH HAS TO BE THE ULTIMATE ACHIEVEMENT FOR A MUSICIAN!

MY APPROACH HAS ALWAYS BEEN, LET WHATEVER WANTS TO COME OUT, COME OUT; NO PLAN, NO BOUNDARIES, NO FORMULA, AND ON THE FLY! 

With so many people making music--literally tens of millions--there is a serious overcrowding problem, creating a wall of white noise; to stand out from that background, a musician must bring something very different to the table :)

HOPE THE DAY EVENTUALLY ARRIVES WHEN INNOVATION ONCE AGAIN REPLACES REGURGITATION, BUT, IN THE MEANTIME, IMITATION AND REGURGITATION CONTINUES TO GRAB THE AUDIENCE, WHICH IS BAD NEWS FOR THOSE OF US WHO INJECT OUR REAL PERSONALITIES INTO OUR TUNES :)

I COME FROM ONE OF THE MOST INSIGNIFICANT PLACES ON THE PLANET, CREWE! NO BAND OR MUSIC, OR ANY ARTIST REPRESENTING ANY OF THE ARTS, OF ANY SIGNIFICANCE EVER CAME FROM CREWE, AND I KIND OF LIKE THAT; A CREATIVE GIANT EVOLVING FROM A TOTALLY STERILE ENVIRONMENT :)
