Dutch classics

Double dog dares in my veins, jeans with holes and lots of stains. Friends go, but friendship remains. We still play football in the rains. Yeah, home run derby in the dark, tryin' to kiss Mary on a lark. No bad days on memory lanes, with Double Dog Dares in my Veins.


Double Dog Dares in My Veins

What I'm Livin' For
Lyrics By: Thomas W. Peterson AKA RedHeart 
 ©COPYRIGHT 9-9-25 All Rights Reserved ©


(Verse 1) From the honky-tonks in Texas to the stages up in Maine I've been blessed to share my music through the sunshine and the rain Met a farmer in Nebraska who knew every word I'd sung Saw a grandma in Kentucky dancing like she was still young

(Verse 2) Played a dive bar down in Georgia where the crowd sang every line Shared a beer with truckers passing through on Highway 99 From the Grand Ole Opry stage to a county fair in June Every single show reminds me why I love this crazy tune

(Chorus) This is what I'm livin' for Every face in every crowd This is what I'm livin' for When they sing my songs out loud From the small town Friday nights to the big city lights Every mile, every smile, every encore This is what I'm livin' for

(Verse 3) Met a soldier on leave in Denver, said my song got him through Signed a guitar for a little girl whose daddy loved me too From the mountains of Montana to the beaches of the coast These moments with the people are what I treasure most

(Chorus) This is what I'm livin' for Every face in every crowd This is what I'm livin' for When they sing my songs out loud From the small town Friday nights to the big city lights Every mile, every smile, every encore This is what I'm livin' for

(Bridge) Sometimes I'm tired and lonely, missing home and family But when I see those faces light up, I know where I'm meant to be This old guitar and these worn-out boots have carried me so far Living out my childhood dreams underneath the stars

(Verse 4) Shared the stage with legends that I grew up listening to Sang harmony with heroes who helped make my dreams come true From Nashville to Las Vegas, with the best this town has known Standing next to greatness, but never felt alone When Garth called me up for a duet in Dallas that one night And Keith showed me some licks backstage underneath the lights Carrie sang my chorus at the Ryman, what a thrill These moments with my heroes give me goosebumps still

(Final Chorus) This is what I'm livin' for Every face in every crowd This is what I'm livin' for When they sing my songs out loud From the small town Friday nights to the big city lights Every mile, every smile, every encore This is what I'm livin' for Yeah, this is what I'm livin' for

(Outro) From sea to shining sea, sharing melodies This is what I'm livin' for


What I'm Livin' For 9-9-25

Verse 1
You rolled in pretty with that big city grin
Turn my cap forward said let's dress you again
Now you got me on a rooftop skyline view
But I'm thinkin' tailgate fold-up chair for two
Pre-Chorus
Your different world is a hell of a ride
But now I'm  here I can see what's inside
Chorus
I’m still that guy turns wrenches for fun
Hands get dirty and the work gets done
Spend Friday nights where the bleachers lean
Our whole town cheering for the hometown team
Cold beer's better when the day is through
And a backyard fire makes a better view
Girl you can light me up just like the 4th of July
But I’m still that guy
Verse 2
You ordered cabernet, I popped a can
You want valet but I just park the van
I tried to keep pace,  some things I  just can't hide
The dirt on my boots eat you up inside
Pre-Chorus
Guess you think you could change this southern man
Turns out I’m the same, yeah I am what I am
Chorus
I’m still that guy turns wrenches for fun
Hands get dirty and the work gets done
Spend Friday nights where the bleachers lean
Our whole town cheering for the hometown team
Cold beer's better when the day is through
And a backyard fire makes a better view
Girl you can light me up just like the 4th of July
But I’m still that guy
Instrumental
Bridge
You are city streets, I’m a county line
Two different worlds just yours and mine
Final Chorus
I’m still that guy turns wrenches for fun
Hands get dirty and the work gets done
Spend Friday nights where the bleachers lean
Our whole town cheering for the hometown team
Cold beer's better when the day is through
And a backyard fire makes a better view
Girl you can light me up just like the 4th of July
But I’m still that guy

Still that guy

ELECTRONICO is an electronic music duo 
formed in Brussels in 2019 by Nicolas Elbo & Petia Staneva​​​​​​​


Biography of Nicolas Elbo

Born in Brussels, Nicolas is rocked by music since his childhood (his mother is a dance teacher). His adolescence is marked by the electronic musics he listens to in clubs and festivals in Brussels, Ghent, Antwerp, Leuven and Liege. Nicolas spends his nights compiling the most innovative artists in eclectic playlists: house, techno, electronica, intelligent dance music, drum and bass, nu jazz, trip hop or psytrance. Soon, he started as an amateur DJ for private parties.

In 2014 Nicolas meets Petia Staneva, a Bulgarian violinist and singer who settled in Brussels. He follows her during her performances and starts his career as a professional DJ mixing for weddings, celebrations and corporate cocktails.

In 2018, in order to convince his partner to engage in music production with him, he released two first EPs under the pseudonym ELECTRONICO. Self-produced, Nicolas is introduced to the music industry and creates a network for its own promotion on the internet.

In 2019, Nicolas participates in contests and remixes internationally renowned artists. He collaborates with a French lyricist, Jérôme Attal, and puts to music one of his poems. With these experiences, Nicolas reaches a certain maturity and is joined by Petia with whom he is now preparing the continuation of the adventure of ELECTRONICO in duet.


Biography of Petia Staneva

Petia started playing the violin at the age of 7 and graduated from the Conservatory of Sofia in Bulgaria. She then studied for one year at the Conservatory of Turin in Italy to become concertmaster. After graduating, Petia was awarded the position of principal violin in the "First Private Orchestra of Bulgaria".

In 1994, Petia had the opportunity to sign a contract with Hilton, Sheraton & Conrad: three of the most prestigious hotels in Brussels, Belgium. In a few years, she created a repertoire covering a wide range of genres, from classics to contemporary pop music. This allowed her to start an independent career based on a unique act of virtuoso violin.

Today, in addition to playing the violin, Petia also sings. She works now with the best companies and event organisers from Belgium, France and the Netherlands. Petia often appears on stage as an opening act for famous Belgian artists such as Dana Winner, Axell Red, Will Tura, Salvatore Adamo, Johan Verminnen, Bart Herman, Gary Hagger, Jean Bosco Safari, Coco Jr., etc. She also works for exclusive events such as Miss Belgium, Miss Belgian Beauty, Night of Exclusive, La Strada Fashion Show, Eccentric, Xenses and many more.

ELECTRONICO will be a new duo adventure in her beautiful career.
