such a heartfelt song..gonna have go check who russ tamblin is

I love this. For some reason, he also made a big impression on me as a child. Something about the way he looked... or maybe something in the tension between the way he looked and the energies he emitted. There was an affecting blend of boyishness, innocense, and sexiness. I didn't know any other kids noticed!

Hey man, this is a beautiful song. Very heartfelt and sincere sounding vocals, too. Way to go with this, my friend!

great 💖 melody reminds of something, hallelujah maybe? not sure :)

“Inspired by various moments in the blink-182 back catalogue this song is from the perspective of the universe telling you to enjoy this amazing journey here on earth.” 

blink. 

This place here and its people
They are all evergreen to me
You’re awake in a daydream
Go unbox it impatiently 
Sometimes you’re lost in a repeat
Sometimes you lose yourself in anxiety
Go out and tackle a lion
Go out and believe in yourself wholeheartedly 

Na na na 
Na na na na na 

Blink and you will miss me
“Open your arms wide hold on and kiss me tonight”
I said, right here on the ground and in the sky
“I am all around for you to live so don’t blink or you will miss me”

Open your eyes
It’s just us here tonight in town 
Keep me hanging on your words
I love hearing your sound

It's hard to keep faith
It's hard to save strength
All around me, slamming doors
No one is listening
No one is dreaming
Recall me what we’re fighting for

No one can take me down
I'm breaking out through the pains
I won't be pushed around
I feel the sun in my veins

No one can take me down
I'm breaking out through the pains
I won't be pushed around
I feel the sun in my veins

The clock is a chain  
Dragging my name  
Every second hurts me more  
Dreams are scattering  
Futures shattering  
Show me what we’re living for

Yet sometimes 
When the sun shines
Through the cracks I see the shore
Another story
No shame, no glory
Giving up, I leave the war 

No one can take me down
I'm breaking out through the pains
I won't be pushed around
I feel the sun in my veins

No one can take me down
I'm breaking out through the pains
I won't be pushed around
I feel the sun in my veins

-----
C'est dur de garder la foi
C'est dur de garder des forces
Tout autour de moi, les portes claquent
Personne n'écoute
Personne ne rêve
Rappelle-moi pourquoi nous nous battons

Personne ne peut m'abattre
Je m'échappe à travers la douleur
Je ne me laisserai pas malmener
Je sens le soleil dans mes veines

Personne ne peut m'abattre
Je m'échappe à travers la douleur
Je ne me laisserai pas faire
Je sens le soleil dans mes veines

L'horloge est une chaîne  
Qui traîne mon nom  
Chaque seconde me fait plus mal  
Les rêves se dispersent  
L'avenir se brise  
Montre-moi pourquoi nous vivons

Pourtant parfois  
Quand le soleil brille  
À travers les fissures, je vois le rivage  
Une autre histoire  
Ni honte, ni gloire  
J'abandonne, je quitte la guerre  

Personne ne peut m'abattre  
Je m'échappe à travers la douleur  
Je ne me laisserai pas faire  
Je sens le soleil dans mes veines  

Personne ne peut m'abattre  
Je m'échappe à travers la douleur  
Je ne me laisserai pas faire  
Je sens le soleil dans mes veines

No One Can Take Me Down


this song  is partly a tribute to actor, singer, dancer, artist, and author Russ Tamblyn, who turns 91 in December.
I wrote the song around the time I retired from my  medical career. So  along with references to  Russ and childhood memory, there are veiled allusions to this strange  new exciting but a bit unsettling life circumstance in the lyric.
As per Russ 
He danced and acted in Westside story  and Seven Brides for Seven Brothers most famously but was in a bunch of movies in the 50s and 60s.. and ....my favourite as a kid was the War of the Gargantuas, which  for Russ was a creative low point ..but  it got him to Japan
opening clips from WotG...the middle and end clips from his movie Highschool Confidential

PS The line in the last verse Words stuck in my throat..lifted from the song The Words Get Stuck in My Throat From the movie War of the Gargantuas...sung by the wonderful Kipp Hamilton who has to contend with a Gargantua groupie..dont worry she survived....clip of the song in the movie is here

Devo did a cover of it years later


Russ Tamblyn

I'll get a Tokyo life                             
Say some words off the script          
Monsters in play                                
Career gone adrift                               
I can make it in spite                          
Of the way they dub my lines              

I'll sail to the East
Maybe take me a bride
Dance out regret
Act up with pride
Let me do it 
Let me do it
Let me do it brother, what do you say?
My little boy brain wants to be Russ Tamblyn for a day

I wanna be cool
I’d like to be strong
A fighter who dances
A singer of songs
Add some rhythm 
Put some muscle on these rhymes 

The streets of the West
I'll be taking a side
Living forever 
This world’s opened wide
Let me do it
Let me do it
Let me do it, what do you say?
My little boy brain wants to be Russ Tamblyn for a day 

In 1970                                         
I saw him on the TV screen        
With those creatures, one             
brown, one green                         
My Gargantuan celluloid dream   

They said I could bail    
I’d much rather swim
Head above water
Life on a whim
I can make it in spite
Of their doubts and their goodbyes

Words stuck in my throat
What's left to say?
There's only myself
I can't stay away
Let me do it 
Let me do it
Permit me if I may
My little boy brain wants to be Russ Tamblyn for a day
My little boy brain wants to be Russ Tamblyn for a day

A song that blends styles and themes. Perhaps it will somehow get you somewhere.

Ride or Die

One of those back burner incomplete songs that I started writing back in 2018 timeframe. Pulled it out awhile back and things started to flow, crazy how that happens. Made some changes with the melody, and added a few new lyrics, which were inspired from events of this past year. Trials make us stronger. I hope you enjoy this live recording on my trusty little Baldwin.  Never stop believing in yourself:) Keep fighting! We are overcomers! Blessings to ya'll. Thank you for listening!:)

Stronger 

I've learned
To put a fight in my spine
From all the climbs
Without your hand in mine
Stronger now
Doing better than just fine
In the valley I'm still on cloud nine

Just like the sun whenever I go down
I'll rise in the morning
Just like the stars surrounded by the dark
My soul keeps on shining 
Just like the moon when I'm invisible
I'll never stop believing Oh Oh 
Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh 

And I've learned
To breathe when under the gun
Every battle I face
And never run
Pressing on 
From a past that is done
Wherever I go I will be someone 

Just like the sun whenever I go down
I'll rise in the morning
Just like the stars surrounded by the dark
My soul keeps on shining 
Just like the moon when I'm invisible
I'll never stop believing Oh Oh 
Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh

Instrumental 

Ohhh Ohhhhhhh

Just like the sun whenever I go down
I'll rise in the morning
Just like the stars surrounded by the dark
My soul keeps on shining 
Just like the moon when I'm invisible
I'll never 
I'll never
I'll never
I'll never 
Stop believing Oh Oh 
Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh

  Lyrics:

I have to ask myself
Is it all your fault, is it just you?
If I need someone to blame
It's easier to turn away
Feel big for one more day

But I am here to learn
And see myself for how I am to you

Are you the only one who did wrong?
If I need someone to blame
I don't see myself, only you
But I can make mistakes
It's easier to turn away
Feel big for one more day

But I am here to learn
And see myself for how I am to you

Am I the only one who can see..?
We are both to blame
You also make mistakes, like me
If we need someone to blame
It's easier to turn away
Feel big for one more day

But I am here to learn
And see myself for how I am to you..

I am here to learn..

I am here to learn...

-------------------------------

-Thank you so much for listening! 🫶

I Am Here To Learn

There’s a treasure down deep in this wonderland
To find it, plug your nose, feel the dirt on your hands
The word and rhyme, a message, in a song it stands
my rock n roll Rosetta Stone
