A hint of Jonathan Richman. Love the whimsy.

Hey Neil Thanks for your complimentary comment. I always enjoy the whimsical side of music.

Solo Piano - Chris Bright

sonoma morning - 10:9:23, 6.53 AM

This song's written only....
for the lonely and cold,
who've spent each holiday
with nobody to hold....
Just like Christmas trees left
on the curb every year,
stripped of all that was pretty,
'cept some icicle tears..

It's a sad little ditty,
but I hope it will show,
There are folks who will love you,
cause they've known what you know.

Loneliness is so cruel, but it's just temporary,
it's the emptiness felt that is so much more scary,
That deep longing denied to have love by your side,
while the world celebrates their most happy yuletide.

It's that bright Christams morn
when you lift up your head,
to find that you're facing
a half empty bed,
it's that tree with no presents
from those you once loved so,
it's T.V. Christmas dinners,
cause you've no place to go.....

Loneliness is so hard, but it passes away.
just like Christmas, it's fleeting, it's not here to stay,
soon you'll face a new year, full of hope and good cheer,
and perhaps love will wander your way.

If I could be Santa, I'd find ways to bring,
a wish list from someone whose been suffering,
to another whose lonely and reads every line,
then by mid-February they'd both share Valentines.

Love is life's greatest gift, but it has to be shared,
put a smile on your lips, and then go forth prepared,
to face this new year, making lots of new friends
then perhaps by next Christmas, love will come round again.

There are places where lonely folks gather to be
companions to others who are also lonely,
but you have to get out and make your feelings known.
cause your only alternative is to be left alone.

This song's written only for the lonely and cold..........

"A Christmas Song For All The Lonely & Cold." By Chris Bright & M.F. Blowers III

La Despedida

No hay Tiempo para el Dolor (Instrumental)

Sensibilität

Sensibilität (Sensibility)

everything's better everyday - 2:15:24, 8.47 PM

I met a lovely girl named Ellie
who fell for me but wouldn’t tell me
she had no time for love’s embrace
she had far stronger dreams to chase

She longed to be on stage and radio
and she had hopes to grace the telly
she was auditioning for movies too
aiming to be called the "Popstar Ellie!!"

She sang so sweet 
I knew that she could be a 
recording female artist, 
Earth’s next great Diva
her songs could make the 
worst skeptics believers
with all the listeners 
eager to receive her

and I was left a blip on her radar
on the road that she 
had planned to take her far 
a passing fancy who could play guitar
a guy in no way up to par.

So I just walked away 
and whispered “Damn!
She is my soul mate 
but I’m not her man!”
though I did everything a lover can 
I was left behind…. her biggest fan.
in her chances for 
love I was an also-ran

She had a cruel crook for a manager
which far too often in show biz occurs
he was a slick, get rich quick handler
walking across the backs of amateurs,
he’d get all of his clients hooked on drugs 
he’d slip pills in their drinks and coffee mugs
till they became more pliable 
convinced he was desirable
while blinded by prescription love
he offered all that they’d  ever dreamed of
while he stole funds that were quite sizable
but they couldn’t hold him liable
cause they were too high to be sure.
I witnessed him do that to her

She was famous but she never knew
how much the crowds adored 
what she could do
so one day I became a hero who
saved her from spending 
her life getting screwed.

I tracked him to a club where she would be
singing a stellar show performed for free
and in the alley where he parked his car
I damaged it so he could not get far 
and when he came out and saw the results
I beat his face into a bloody pulp
and told him if he came near her again
he would no longer be a living man.

I bundled her up and I took her home
she didn’t argue much cause she was stoned
And when she sobered up and learned the truth
her attitude towards me was quite improved.
and three days later a huge check appeared
from her ex-manager, I’d blessed with fear
and most amazingly that damn check cleared

Now I’m her agent and she’s on the path
to all the dreams he never let her have
contracts are rolling in as well as cash
and Popstar Ellie is the latest smash
and soon our wedding notice will be splashed
across the headlines and we both will be
two perfect soul mates for eternity.

What Planet Are We On Tonight

My house was struck by lightning this past week and so I am without my recording studio as well as many other household electrical devices. We are fine but I will be down for a week or more until electrical breaks are repaired and devices that blew out are replaced or I buy new ones.


The Hollow-Days Of Addiction.
(A Christmas message for all )

Christmas has come back again
For the third year in a row
And we haven't seen 
our precious son
Ever since he had to go
To jail then off to rehab
Then violating 
two probation's
the court ordered no contact
So we've had no conversations
Cause he'd abused 
his Mom so much
Leaving her soul terrified
and came after me so angrily
Every time that he got high
we both tried in 
every way we could
But then we had to say goodbye....


Christmas on drugs and alcohol 
Was never a good mix
Hanukkah plus cruel addictions
Just brings candle sadly lit
Santa Claus and faith in God
Are not enough to bring a fix
Only he can save himself
No one else can heal his needs
That have made both our hearts bleed
while he spends his hollow days
Struggling to find ways to succeed.


He'll spend another Christmas
In sober living all alone
Far away from both his parents
Knowing that he can't come home
And it cuts us deeply to the bone
Cause our tough love is no fun
But drugs and alcohol have stolen
Our most precious son
Until he proves that he is cured
and his addictions are all done.

So if you too are like our son
Suffering the same afflictions
I hope this poem moves you to flee
Back to the true life 
you've been missing
Because those who 
love you can't survive
Living with the endless friction
Of your lies and thefts 
And thier hopes left swept
Underneath your opposition
Your loved ones all must separate
themselves from your positions
Of your loving highs even as they cry
Over your tragic conditions
Leaving you alone 
while they sit at home
Praying for you and each one wishing
That you will give all that you've lost
Some serious recognition
Before you end up lying 
Under a marble inscription
that leaves them all 
Without your love
Another victim of addiction
so many others just like you 
Have faced Death's Benedictions....

This poem is dedicated to ny son,
my only child who has been 
through his fault alone absent from
my wife and I for 3 years 
without contact
