This song is about losing my wonderful big brother when I was a young man. He bought me 'The White Fender Strat' and said quietly through his smile "No excuses now...". Thanks forever bro, this is for you as always.

SMOKE

Growing up, looking up
I have never had my toast buttered on both sides
I started crying the day 
I watched my father clearing the overgrown weeds at the top of the garden and realised 
And realised
That wasn’t what he was doing
Ooh no

It was a still day 
So still
It was a still life
And the smell of the smoke never quite left our clothes
Five years
And another
Five years

There was a silence 
Where my beautiful dead brother still lived between us 
And that quietness wasn’t burned with the weeds

It was a still day
It was a still life 
So still
And the smell of the smoke never quite left our clothes
Five years
Another
Five years

Digging the sod in Donegal 
Praying for muscle, bunched like a ball 
Sweat and pride loved standing tall 
Anticipating 
Eye-watering 
Peat-stove fire 
That would 
Warm 
Cook 
And flavour our bones

It was a still day 
Still day
It was a still life 
Still life
And the smell of the smoke never quite left our clothes

Another
Five years
And another
Five years...

Five years
Tick tock
Five years
My father lost his sense of smell and his pulse in cenotaph central heating
Five years
And my orphaned senses 
Five years
Still feel that fire

And smell that smoke...

Another collaboration with Torbjørn Vagle and Jimmy Rivas.
Torbjørn sent me a demo of his new song and asked if I would be interested in collaborating.
As with our previous collaborations, Torbjørn and myself traded ideas until we had a reasonable draft of the song to send to Jimmy for him to write lyrics and record his vocal.
Thanks very much to Torbjørn for asking me to contribute to this gorgeous song (visit his page to hear how he got the title) and of course to Jimmy for his outstanding vocal and lyrics. Working with these guys is awesome.

Many years ago (at the age of 21), I started dating this really cool girl. A few weeks into the relationship, I naturally wanted her to know me better, so I decided to share one of my favorite hobbies. One evening, with precision gaming Fung Shui, I configured the dining room table for an optimized evening of Advanced Dungeons & Dragons; and I began an adventure for her and a few of our friends. I thought it was going well. But unfortunately, after a few sessions, she indicated she wasn’t too hip on my ’mind-numbingly tedious, micro-rules’ play-style (apparently not all people enjoy having the spontaneity squeezed out of an exciting moment, while the Dungeon Master rummages through the rulebooks). It was a hard lesson to learn. My love of gaming rules and nano-details was not as fascinating (or sexy) as I first imagined.

Fast forward 30 years. That girl (despite having a great deal of common sense), is still sitting by my side. And although I was never able to amaze her with the ‘pen and paper’ world of gaming (a hobby that now resides exclusively with our oldest daughter); we both love geeking out over the latest video games. I’ll take that. :D

Interestingly though… one D&D concept stuck. And she recently told me she uses this in real life… and on a regular basis. It is the idea of ‘disbelieving’, as a conscious action (choosing to see past the illusion before you). Seems like a strange idea, I know. But in a fantasy world, that’s how you get past the illusionary dragon guarding the treasure; or avoid the siren song lulling you to your doom. 

And ya know what? She’s right. Disbelief is actually a cleverly disguised life practice awaiting our usage. 

Am I suggesting we can disbelieve ourselves right out of the visible illusion? Pop from the Holo-Deck? Probably not (but I’m not sure about that yet). One thing we can do is disbelieve that it has to be this way; that we have to be this way.

Navigating this life requires a certain willingness to commit to the agreed upon illusion. Every day, we wake up into this man-made idea (and lets face it, this really is the product of men, not women). Every day, we watch our fears grow… “I gotta secure mine. Cuz there isn’t enough to go around”. We find ourselves fighting over the strangest of things (see: COVID Toilet Paper Days). And depending on which side of the fence you occupy, it is absolutely undeniable… the other side is out of their minds, and entirely to blame. It’s a mighty convincing illusion; and I honestly spend way too much time lost in it.

But that’s just it. I’m tired of being lost in the illusion. Believing in the current illusion requires a strong investment in fear. And I don’t have the strength for that anymore. I suspect many of you feel the same way. So for just a moment (or perhaps 24 hours a day), let's play with the idea of disbelieving this is all there is. Disbelieving is a great way to see past the illusion. And when the dragon disappears… we can finally get to the treasure. 

I hope you enjoy my latest musical effort, ‘I Disbelieve’. :)

Alley Lyrics:
Closer to the way I see you now
And I never want to see you frown
When im asking you to come with me
Just to see what we can see
Im tight in my chest
I'm holding my breath
I just won’t last
With the weight of the world
Caught in the whirlpool
Riptide of my soul
Just say you won't let go
Let it go
Closer to our loving mind
Heart beating two at a time
Promise that I'll make you mine
Love you till the end of time

I don't worry anymore
Kick dumb feelings out the door, hey
I feel just right, what do you say?
Beat down, keep up if you're sticking with me

Weighed too much for too long, yeah
There's nothing gonna stop me from singing my song
Might as well sing along man
You're never gonna stop me from singing my song
I am soaring, I am flying, and I can take you away
Every day where I belong
Cause nothing gonna stop me from singing my song

I'm not wary anymore
Feeling sunshine to the core, hey
Might last, might not, what can I say?
Laid back, light up, you can kick it with me

Weighed too much for too long, yeah
There's nothing gonna stop me from singing my song
Might as well sing along man
You're never gonna stop me from singing my song
I am soaring, I am flying, and I can take you away
Every day where I belong
Cause nothing gonna stop me from singing my song

Weighed too much for too long, yeah
There's nothing gonna stop me from singing my song
Might as well sing along man
You're never gonna stop me from singing my song
I am soaring, I am flying, and I can take you away
Every day where I belong
Cause nothing gonna stop me from singing my song

My Song - Music & Lyrics by Shark Teeth | Music by Echo Garage | Music by REKHA - IYERN [Fe] | Pop

Lyrics by me, music made in Garageband.   A simple song, from my heart❤️   

My Chaos       (Original)

This is a song inspired by a wonderful poem of the same title that I came across on the web recently.  It's written by a guy named Christopher without further information (not me though).   I eventually took the liberty & converted it into a song.  I gave it a bit of a country feel and hope you would enjoy listening.

[LYRICS]
She looks into air, herself falling rain
Dripping coldness past, memories old pain.
Drops fall, the puddling her damp water-life.
Spiraling a mirror, self-lonely strife.

Clouds a-whorl, dark sky sheltering fair heart.
But how can she joy, while taking no part?
Covering cold soul, corona of defense.
Defying the stab of her fate's intents.

This is madness, she thinks in plaintive cry.
I'm here, on the cusp, of lay down and die.
What my destiny, but an empty-off dream?
A plaything with which gods and angels scheme.

Am I doomed then to live, time never-free?
Subsumed wholly 'neath life's scattered debris?
Is justice outside this torrential doubt?
Perhaps more than sorrow,  painful fall-out?

Instrumental break

Personal paradise, which I can own,
Evoking happiness, hither unknown?
She raises from streets of lonely no more.
Light slicing through darkness, hopes washed ashore.

Her withered gait now straightening with pride.
She glides like an angel 'cross future's tide.
Caressing the ground, sing the beat of her heart.
Into the sun seeking love's brand new start.

Into Every Life

A Murmuration of Starlings

"The Egerton Manuscript listed a 'murmuracyon' back in 1468 & most subsequent lists from the 15th Cent include this entry. As with many terms describing flocks of birds this one is inspired by the sound the birds make when they flock together."
[Chloe Rhodes]

I'm delighted to finally release a Solo Piano piece in which there is so much Beauty, so much space  to dance within it's symmetry.  

May it be a blessing, and contribute towards Peace and understanding on this yet warring planet.

May I sit myself
Right here
I’m feeling tired
Now
I have run out of breath
While trying to keep my vows 

We don’t have to say
A word
Just gaze
Blankly out
As the leaves drop to the ground
Feet up: what was the noise about?

So silent
Yet windy hair 
So peaceful
Yet full of life

Oh, thank you
For my chair
I feel so much
Better now
You’ve calmed down my breath
Oh let us, just stay here

Oh, let us, just stay here

Silent Here

Lyrics:

You are beautiful
And i have completely fallen for you
Oh you are wonderful
And i run after you...

I will keep on running
You are absolutely stunning
Iam running after you 
You're my hero 
You're my glue
You lift me up
And i will never stop
Running fast after you..

Your smile is beautiful
Your hair so soft and smooth
Your arms so good and strong
Your eyes so deep and blue..

I will keep on running
You are absolutely stunning
Iam running after you
You're my hero
You're my glue
You lift me up
and i will never stop
Running fast after you...

Your heart is beautiful
Your words so smart and true
You're ears are listening
To my feet that run after you..

I will keep on running
You are absolutely stunning
Iam running after you
You're my hero
You're my glue
You lift me up
And i will never stop 
Running fast after you....

Oh You are my whole world
And i have nothing but you
I will never stop
Cause iam obsessed with you...
