SECOND COMING OF THE CHAMELEON OF POP

WAS MET BY A FANFARE
THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE
SIX IN THE MORNING
ARRIVED WITH OUT WARNING

HE FELL OUT OF THE SKY
NOBODY BELIEVED HIM
IT CAME AS NO SURPRISE
THAT IT ALL CAME TO NOTHIN'

SECOND COMING OF THE CHAMELEON OF POP

HIS ACCUSERS, ON A HIGH
BOTH THE FOOLISH AND THE WISE
PREACH THE UNIVERSAL LIE
INSISTING HE MUST DIE

AS THE HECKLERS MULTIPLY
HIS EXISTENCE, THEY DENY
HIS REJECTION AND DEJECTION
A WRITTEN IN CONCRETE PROPHECY

SECOND COMING OF THE CHAMELEON OF POP

A WORD TO THE UNWISE
THERE IS NO SOLUTION
IF YOU THINK THAT YOU KNOW WHY
YOU ARE IN FOR A BIG SURPRISE

YOU LOOK IN THE RIGHT PLACE
BUT LOOK AT THE WRONG TIME
THE TRUTH IS ALL AROUND YOU
BUT NOTHING CAN OPEN YOUR EYES

SECOND COMING OF THE CHAMELEON OF POP

THE ABILITY TO REASON OR THINK FOR YOURSELF
HAS DEPARTED THIS WORLD, AND DESERTED THE PEOPLE

BEYOND THE POINT OF REDEMPTION
YOUR'E THE BLANK GENERATION
YOUR LACK OF INVENTION
GIVING WAY TO PRETENSION

SECOND COMING OF THE CHAMELEON OF POP

YOU MISTAKE THE GENII FOR JERKS
BUT FOR THE JERKS YOU GO BERSERK
AND PLACE THE JACKASS RAPPER
ON THE PEDESTAL HE BOUGHT

WHILE BORN AGAIN BOWIE
STARES YOU IN THE FACE
AWASH WITH NO PUBLICITY
DESTINED TO VANISH WITHOUT TRACE

SECOND COMING OF THE CHAMELEON OF POP

SWALLOWED UP IN A SEA
OF MEDIOCRITY
WHERE THE KING IS IMITATION
WITH THE PUBLIC ALWAYS LOOKING IN THE WRONG PLACE

SECOND COMING OF THE CHAMELEON OF POP

HE'S ECLECTIC, HE'S PERSISTENT
HIS SONGWRITING; CONSISTENT
TO EVERY PASSING WHIM
HE'S ETERNALLY RESISTANT

THE WIDTH OF HIS IMAGINATION
EVIDENT IN HIS CREATIONS
BEYOND ALL EXPECTATION
USHERS HIM FROM STATION TO STATION

SECOND COMING OF THE CHAMELEON OF POP

NON-EXISTENT BOUNDARIES
THE CORE OF HIS BELIEFS
WITHIN A BOX THAT HAS NO SIDES
THE UNIVERSE IS HIS FRUSTRATION

EVERYBODY ELSE IS WRONG
AND SURE TO UNDERRATE THIS SONG
THAT'S WHY I THINK I DON'T BELONG
THAT'S WHY I'M SOMEWHERE IN THE DISTANCE

SECOND COMING OF THE CHAMELEON OF POP

WITHIN MY MIND, EXISTING WALLS
LIKE JERICHO, AFTER THE FALL
WERE PULVERIZED AND GROUND TO DUST
THOUGH THEY WERE NEVER THERE AT ALL

IF ONLY THEY WOULD DROP THE ACT
PARTITION FICTION FROM THE FACTS
MY ONLY MISSION, STILL INTACT
WOULD BE THE ONE I CAN'T RECALL

SECOND COMING OF THE CHAMELEON OF POP

THE SUPERFICIAL MAKE SICK
CAN ONLY TURN A SINGLE TRICK
BUT PLASTIC PEOPLE ALWAYS WIN
IT'S ALL ABOUT SURFACE SKIN

IT'S DANGEROUS TO BE 

DANGEROUSLY DIFFERENT
TO THE SHEEP, I'M NON-EXISTENT
BEING DEEP IS AN AFFLICTION
SAYS THE UNNATURAL SELECTION

SECOND COMING OF THE CHAMELEON OF POP

TO DISAGREE WOULD BE SIN
TO SWIM AGAINST THE SEA OF MAN
WILL PUT YOU WAY OUT ON A LIMB
AND VULNERABLE TO EXECUTION

I HATE THE WAY THE MASSES THINK
THE MEDIOCRITY THEY DRINK
THEIR MOUTHS ALL MOVE IN PERFECT SYNC
WHEN OTHERS DO, THEY ALSO BLINK

SECOND COMING OF THE CHAMELEON OF POP

I'M HAPPY THAT MY MIND IS FREE
MY 'DON'T BELONG' PHILOSOPHY
THE LIFEBLOOD OF HUMANITY
WILL GIVE MY PSYCHE FULL PROTECTION

SECOND COMING OF THE CHAMELEON OF POP

DON'T JUST LIKE, LISTEN; DON'T JUST LISTEN, COMMENT; DON'T JUST COMMENT, SHARE!
I don't respond to musicians that just add, or just click like buttons, because it doesn't prove they actually listened!

Please don't just click the like button, because i don't know whether it means you didn't actually listen, or you don't think it's good enough to comment on! I will only return support to musicians I know have actually listened; anyone can click the like button, and many do, without actually listening!

I BREAK ALL THE RULES DEFINING THE MUSIC MAKING PROCESS, SIMPLY BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW THEM! 

AND BECAUSE THEY ARE UNFAMILIAR, UNPREDICTABLE, FROM ONE CREATION TO THE NEXT, ONE TUNE WILL ONLY TELL YOU AS MUCH AS READING ONE PAGE OF A NOVEL, AND ONE LISTEN, NO MORE THAN A PARAGRAPH :)

I DOUBT ANY MUSICIAN WILL EVER MATCH DAVID BOWIE'S BRILLIANCE; NO ONE WILL EVER INHERIT HIS CROWN, BUT I DON'T THINK ANYONE ELSE WILL COME CLOSER.

THIS MIGHT SOUND LIKE AN AMBITIOUS CLAIM, BUT I WOULDN'T BE FOOLISH ENOUGH TO MAKE IT IF I HADN'T REACHED THE POINT IN MY CREATIVE LIFE TO DO IT.

IN SOME WAYS I FALL SHORT, BECAUSE I PRODUCE TUNES SO RAPIDLY, THEY DON'T GET THE CARE AND ATTENTION THEY MIGHT RECEIVE IN A STUDIO, AND MY TUNES ARE NOT LITTERED WITH GREAT MUSICIANS; THE VAST MAJORITY OF MY TUNES ARE SOLO PROJECTS, AND I RARELY SPEND MORE THAN A DAY ON EACH TUNE, YET THEY ARE ALWAYS INNOVATIVE, CREATIVE, IMAGINATIVE, COVERING THE WHOLE SPECTRUM FROM DARK TO LIGHT.

NO BOUNDARIES IN MUSIC, SO I WANDER FROM GENRE TO GENRE WITHOUT THOUGHT OR INTENT, AND I CREATE ON THE FLY, YET MY TUNES ARE STRONGER THAN MANY TUNES THAT GET THE FULL TREATMENT, INVOLVING MONTHS OF WORK, AND PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERING!

IF LISTENERS KEEP THIS IN MIND, THEY WILL REALIZE THE TUNES I CREATE EXIST OUTSIDE NORMAL BOUNDARIES. VIEW THEM AS DEMOS, CREATED ON THE FLY, AND COMPLETED, FROM START TO FINISH, IN LESS THAN A DAY--HOW MANY MUSICIANS COULD DO THAT, WITHOUT SACRIFICING  STRENGTH,  DEPTH, ORIGINALITY AND FRESHNESS,

 THE UNBIASED LISTENER WOULDN'T DISAGREE WITH MY CLAIM OF BEING THE SECOND COMING OF THE CHAMELEON OF POP; IF ANYTHING, I AM MORE ECLECTIC, EVEN THAN BOWIIE, AND MY LYRICS ARE EVERY BIT AS INNOVATIVE AS THE MUSIC. BOWIE'S LYRICS ARE BRILLIANT, BUT ONLY MADE SENSE SOME OF THE  TIME... MINE MAKE SENSE MOST OF THE TIME, AND ARE LITTERED WITH SOCIAL STATEMENTS PRESENTED FROM A NEW PERSPECTIVE!

IN ORDER TO DISAGREE WITH MY CLAIM, THE LISTENER WOULD NEED TO LISTEN TO A FEW HUNDRED OF MY TUNES FIRST; IT IS THE QUANTITY OF MY TUNES, HOW ECLECTIC MY APPROACH IS, AND HOW CONSISTENT THE STANDARD IS, THAT PROVIDES EVIDENCE FOR MY CLAIM, SO TO DISPUTE THAT CLAIM YOU MUST LISTEN TO HUNDREDS OF THEM :) STE VAN HORNE

Musicians who don't give a crap about public or music industry approval write lyrics like these!

My parents listened to Franz Liszt - I still have the original record so I ended up a fan.  My music teacher was the late: Anatoly Miroshnyk (born August 19, 1923 - died July 14, 2011) was a Ukrainian composer, pianist, teacher, musician and public figure.

We often think of talented musicians as folks who start young and advance their skills via the finest education available to them. While this is certainly true in some cases, there are plenty who realised many of their artistic capacities without the aid of specialised instruction or a degree in music.

Where words leave off, music begins.. Not everyone has the ability to compose music I also sing Jazz & Blues with musicians on Wikiloops a truly amazing community.

 I've always been passionate about music composition and fortunately the internet & technology made it possible to build a community in the clouds.

Find my global music journey since 2012 below:

I've been tested by an examiner from the Australian Conservatorium of Music & apparently I have perfect pitch and blessed with the ability to accompany any musician, add hooks to any genre - as a singer I’m not great but who cares thats why most is spoken word.

I have my own style - either you like it or not -  always open for collaborations

🎤I have no fear of perfection - will never reach it 🎧   I don’t have the perfect voice nor am I aiming to be the best I'm only human with a passion for what I love music is in my heart.

Thank you to all who believe in me and MOST OF ALL my amazing Mentor thank you Sir for encouraging me to NEVER GIVE UP it all takes time and practice.

My mixing & mastering techniques have been learned from Youtube tutorials & experimenting with Logic Pro X.   I love the creativity and flexibility music production - a continual learning journey  of #passion #persistence #perspiration #patience
 
Having begun her musical journey at the young age of five with the piano accordion – an instrument initially more of an expectation than a choice, yet one for which she now holds deep gratitude – Heidi-Marie eventually transitioned into the captivating world of electronic music production a few years ago. This discovery led to the gentle retirement of her accordion, making space for her true passion: composing, producing, and sharing her sonic creations with the world. For Heidi-Marie, music is not just a pastime but a lifelong dedication, a constant until her final days.

Hello dear Soundcloud listeners,

I'm still determined to continue producing music, the music of Pier Will, which can only be heard on Soundcloud and which can also be recorded... for now.

The world of music is rapidly moving towards a huge upheaval where the true musician will very quickly become "rare," or even more and more of a shadow, a peculiarity, a memory. This time is not so far away, as AI takes a predominant place in everything that touches us and surrounds us and in Music, this can already be heard very clearly!

Apparently, everyone is taking this lightly, and the few diehards are being sneered at as anti-progress terrorists, for now. I already have two work computers disconnected from the internet, which house my software and everything I need to work. No more updates for them to work properly... updates are only necessary if you need to connect! Another computer is dedicated solely to internet connection and will be used exclusively for streaming the tracks.

This decision has serious consequences for my production, as there are no more options to add anything to it. It's a gamble, but for me, it's an obligation to remain completely independent and free from AI.

Pier WILL - ❤️🕊️🙏

Bonjour chers auditeurs Soundcloud,
Je suis toujours déterminé à continuer à produire de la musique, celle de Pier Will, que l'on ne peut écouter que sur Soundcloud et qui peut aussi être enregistrée… pour l'instant.

Le monde de la musique s'achemine rapidement vers un bouleversement majeur où le véritable musicien deviendra très vite « rare », voire de plus en plus une ombre, une singularité, un souvenir. Ce temps n'est pas si lointain, car l'IA prend une place prépondérante dans tout ce qui nous touche et nous entoure, et en musique, cela se voit déjà très clairement !

Apparemment, tout le monde prend cela à la légère, et les quelques irréductibles sont méprisés comme des terroristes anti-progrès, pour l'instant. J'ai déjà deux ordinateurs de travail déconnectés d'Internet, qui hébergent mes logiciels et tout ce dont j'ai besoin pour travailler. Plus besoin de mises à jour pour qu'ils fonctionnent correctement… les mises à jour ne sont nécessaires que si vous avez besoin de vous connecter ! Un autre ordinateur est dédié uniquement à la connexion Internet et sera utilisé exclusivement pour le streaming des morceaux.

Cette décision a de graves conséquences sur ma production, car il n'y a plus aucune possibilité d'y ajouter quoi que ce soit. C'est un pari risqué, mais pour moi, c'est une obligation de rester totalement indépendant et libre de toute IA.

Pier WILL - ❤️🕊️
