Lyrics:
Don't want to be a rose
You want to be a wildflower
Never mind the sun
You want to take a moon shower

Half a mile from here we'll disappear aboard the midnight train

You say you're getting old
You say you've reached a milestone mama
You're tired of being sold
You're tired of all the hometown drama

Half a mile from here we'll disappear aboard the midnight train

I love the way the moon glows
I love the way the wind blows
When it goes
Through your hair

Gonna be a wild ride mama
Gonna be a rodeo
Gonna be an LA drama
Gonna have to rope me down

Half a mile from here we'll disappear aboard the midnight train

Half A Mile From Here

The title is motivated by some new sounds I have created. The sounds for Blofeld, Microwave, ANA 2 and other synths are partly orientated on the sound of orchestral instruments from the woodwind section.
But since this is a classic EM track, I designed the video accordingly. There are hints of electronic music from the 80s/90s in the song and the video.

Das es sich aber um einen klassischen EM Track handelt, habe ich das Video auch dementsprechend gestaltet. Im Song und im Video finden sich Andeutungen zu elektronischen Musik der 80/90er Jahre.

“Dessau Dreaming “ by Luke  (in memory of my brother) 

Long time ago during the Cold War in a small apartment in Dessau 🇩🇪
a 2 year old brother was introduced to his new baby brother, both boys were adorable with blonde hair & blue eyes.. 
one year later the older brother went by train to visit his Oma in Berlin.. 
that was the last time the brothers ever saw each other again..
the barbwire went up & the wall was enforced, forcing the 3year old brother to stay in the East while his younger brother (and Mother) made it to Aachen to live with the other Oma.. 
20years later the wall came down only boy left was the younger brother who grew up with the PolarBears in🇨🇦Canada..
he was a Diesel mechanic by trade
but he’s been writing & creating music since he was 6 years old..
I Created this song In memory of my older brother..

“Dessau Dreaming” by Luke

Bright Stars In The Haze

Megacosm

Nacreous Twilight

Space is an album with its feet firmly planted in the hard rock that established itself between the Seventies and Eighties
thanks to groups such as Van Halen, Def Leppard, Motley Crue, Kiss, Whitesnake and Bon Jovi (who are thus considered
among the major influences of the music branded Hand On Heart), the single Roses has already been taken. A refined taste
of what you will find in this new, exciting release by Metal Zone Italia. The song won third place in the winter edition of the
international World Songwriting Awards, coming in ahead of artists who have received Grammy nominations and the band
has recently become a member of ISSA (International, Singer-Songwriters Association), an organization based in Atlanta, in
the U.S.A.

HAND ON HEART - Agony

Between writing sermons as a small-town pastor, I was also engaged in writing songs, some you have heard in my "Scenes of St. Francis". This particular song came to me after reading an article about love and marriage--ministers do a lot of reading for sermon preparation--but this one knocked me a bit sideways.  Turns out men on average will fall in love between five and seven times before meeting their wife, and then 1-1/2 times afterward!  This song is about the 1-1/2 times afterward, a little different kind of love song for Valentine's Day. 
I have sat on the text and melody for over forty years but thought I better do something before time overtook it as it had overtaken my singing voice.  I heard Axel sing in his magnificent song with Sarah Paradise-Brown "What We Still Feel" and felt he could give the song the vocal it needed, an international voice of "everyman".  When he received the guitar parts he set to work on it and gave the song a stunningly beautiful orchestral setting as well.  Thank you dear Axel for lavishing your vocal and orchestral skills on a song that needed both. I am deeply honored and indebted.  Hear more of Axel's beautiful music @axel-m-501052973.
"Faithful and True" lyrics:

I recall the day I said "I do",
I never thought that I could love anyone
Like I love you,
But of late I'm really not so sure
That the promises we made can hold
Us together as we both grow older
With each day.
Is it possible for love to endure?
Chorus:
But I've made up my mind.
I've made my choice,
This feeling will pass but never the voice,
That tells me I must remain,
Faithful and true.

Bridge:
It doesn't stop the pain of admitting what can never be,
But if love has any meaning it is found in trust,
And not in what we feel.

Instrumental break...

Repeat bridge:

There's a sadness as I say farewell
To a love that promised more than I could ever tell,
Or at least that is the way it seemed
To a man who found himself in love
With another 'till he counted the cost of fantasy.
It was more than he ever dreamed.

Repeat chorus and end.

Hoy les presento este sencillo doble sobre la dualidad. Me puse a parafrasear la melodía de Swoon y podría jurar que Nova alguna vez soñó con los Chemical Brothers. No sé qué será de la vida de los reggaetoneros, pero aquí les dejo este edit con todo el tinte Brenda que de vez en cuando me gusta revisitar. Ya disponible en mi biografía. Apóyenme para seguir en el camello. ¡Gracias!

Today I’m sharing this double single about duality. I started paraphrasing the melody from Swoon, and I swear Nova must’ve once dreamed of the Chemical Brothers. I don’t know what the reggaetoneros are up to these days, but here’s this edit—fully dipped in the Brenda flavor I love to revisit from time to time. Now available in my bio. Support me so I can keep grinding. Thank you!

lyrics:

he guides me with holy light
it's deeper than wrong or right
most things don't happen overnight
but sometimes it might catch you by surprise
and it don't feel right to say goodbye
because i'd rather just talk and pass the time
you're an eternal shining light
and it shook my faith and caught me eye

give me holy light
it's deeper than wrong or right
most things don't happen overnight
but sometimes it might catch you by surprise
and it don't feel right to say goodbye
because i'd rather just talk and pass the time
you're an eternal shining light
and it shook my faith and caught me eye

i can guide you to the bay
rich with lapping ocean waves
where the mermaid cryptids lay
and their talons grip the clay
and there was nothing left to say
so i got down on my knees and prayed
no need to hang your head in shame
i suggest you do the same

where did i
go so wrong
it was here
 now it's gone
(X2)

Around summer 2013, I started writing some rock songs with former Funeral For A Friend drummer Ryan Richards for a bit of fun. The intention was to find a vocalist and put some material out but with our hectic schedules we haven't gotten around to that part of things just yet. That said, I'm really happy with how this came out and wanted to share it rather than keeping it sitting on my desktop gathering dust, hope you guys enjoy! 
We recorded this at Moles Studio in Bath, with Ryan's incredible Pearl Masterworks drum  kit he used mainly on FFAF's "Tales Don't Tell Themselves" album. Guitars were tracked with my wonderful ViK Hollowbody Caprice into a Diezel VH4 (kindly loaned by Paul of Zilla Cabs), through my Zilla 4x12 cabinet. Bass is my Dingwall Afterburner 6-string through a Darkglass B7K.
