Gino's Diary [Sunday Roulette #132]

I hear him on the radio talking, 
I watch him on the TV news, 
Some people tell me he’s a popular fella, 
Some people say they disapprove

On the surface he’s an intellectual, 
On the surface he’s a leader of men, 
I really want to get to know him better, 
I really want to be his friend

He isn’t left, he isn’t right, 
There’s no one specific in my mind, 
He’s a preacher to the choir, 
He’s a cheater, he’s a liar

And we hate him like nobody does, 
We love him…

All he wants is a master narrative, 
Something on which he can rely and build his life around, 
He took a look at religion and bits of conflicting political thinking, 
For all it’s worth, 
And now he’s one stop on the train from his heaven on Earth

I tell you what I think he’s really not worth much more than the price of a ticket to the circus, 
But I find no one likes a visit to the circus like I do… 

He isn’t left, he isn’t right, 
There’s no one specific in my mind, 
He’s a preacher to the choir, 
He’s a cheater, he’s a liar

And we hate him like nobody does, 
We love him…

All he wants is a master narrative, 
Something on which he can rely and build his life around, 
He took a look at religion and bits of conflicting political thinking, 
For all it’s worth, 
And now he’s one stop on the train,
One stop on the train,
One stop on the train from his heaven on Earth…

Pardon me boy, 
Is that the Chattanooga Choo Choo? 
Can you afford, 
To board the Chattanooga Choo Choo?
Pardon me boy, 
Is that the Chattanooga Choo Choo?

If It Looks Like Magic

Soul Syndrome

Winter Song
Lyrics: Anna Tabbush, Music: Trad. Swedish

Winter Song is about the things we do to survive the cold and darkness of winter: lighting fires, gathering friends around us and having faith that spring will come.

The music is based on a traditional Swedish psalm.

Winter Song - Anna Tabbush + Ben & Dom

‘I Get It’ acknowledges the feeling of a relationship getting tired. It tells of the recognition of a love that once felt exciting, sexy and new becoming a worn-out reminder of better times.

I Get It

Feel This Forever

Lyrics:
Drawing lines in the sand
that i can hardly say
reading faces under the sun
in the hope i can get a pun
while the daemons are here behind me
and I am putting my armour down...

Have i failed your love?
i am doing it all wrong
being the lonesome one
it's lonesome gone

the storm between you and me
blame meteorology
did i just spot a sudden blush?
you know, it's already been forgotten
wishing each other goodnight
and the wine from the south of France 

it's going to carry us on
how about one more glass?
before the night is around us
and the euphoria gone...
it's lonesome gone
into the sundown

every step back i take
no religion to be saved
Is just an own selfish god?
the only one i am aiming for....
Have i ever given my all?

gone
gone

i am doing it all wrong
and you are still giving your all
to the lonesome one
the awkward one
it's lonesome gone 
it's lonesome gone

Lonesome Gone

I guess it ain't over until the poet speaks...

I thought I was done with music for 2023. 

But London Poet TheNarratorSpeaks sent me his vocals for my song We Was Once and I simply had to finish it for Christmas.

We Was Once explores the theme of a parent's love and wisdom for their child. The song is based on a poem written by TheNarratorSpeaks, who delivers the poem with his distinctive voice and style making the words resonate with the listener whether a parent or child.

The song is a powerful and moving tribute to the bond between a parent and a child, and the lessons that are passed on from one generation to the next. 

The song will be released on December 18th and will be available on all major streaming platforms, the video is out now.

The Daisy And The Marigold - #3664 (872 Left) By Chair House 231226

Ben & Dom are a singing duo from London. Ben takes the high notes and Dom takes the low notes (most of the time). The intricate blend of their harmonies comes from a close friendship and shared love of singing together. Ben & Dom weave their voices around songs old and new, performing original material alongside new interpretations of folk songs. Their lyrics touch on friendship, nature and what it means for two men to sing together in this modern day.
