The Day Was Not Ready for Darkness
By Steve Yungen, Jan. 2025

The day was not ready for darkness    It did not want to forfeit the light
But then the moon made the day a promise  That it would reflect the sun’s light at night

The day thought it over for a moment     And decided to accept the moon’s plan
That night with encroachment of darkness     The moon rose to shine on the land
For several nights the day was happy      Everything was going as planned
But, soon the moon lost  interest      And went hiding at the day’s end

The day was not ready for darkness    When the day was replaced by the night
Without the light there is darkness    And without the darkness there’s light

What has happened, asked the day      Why has the moon neglected the task?
Now, the darkness has taken over       And covers the earth like a mask

“Here I am”, said the moon      As the sun set in the sky.
“I didn’t want to go hiding       But, the sun was blinding my eye”.

“I was hidden by the earth’s shadow        Which will happen every now and then
You see, I will go through phases      Now I’m feeling brighter again”.

Only For You

Love me tender-Elvis Presley

Dealing with loss and plans not working out, this song is about moving forward through all of it.

Der Song handelt davon einen Menschen zu verlieren, den man sehr vermisst. Irgendwann wird man die Person aber wieder sehen. 

Nie allein - Saesch

Love song to no one. 

This is unfinished, but it has been for a while, and im not sure it ever will get done, so im sharing it as is, because i think its decent enough.

Keep the Line

One of Denmark’s strongest, most distinguished voices goes solo on 8th album!

Danish vocalist, guitarist, and songwriter, Mike Andersen, releases his first acoustic solo album, One Million Miles.

“I’ve always striven to write songs that can be performed simply, songs that are stripped down to the voice and accompanied by an acoustic guitar. Still, I have never released songs in this way. Now’s the time to do that,” Mike says.

One Million Miles is the title track and first single from this upcoming acoustic solo project―an album with nine, new original songs, recorded the old-school way. All you will hear on this album is Mike singing while playing his acoustic guitar and tapping his foot. No overdubbing of any kind.

Only For You
