The Upload  - 15 octobre 2018

This is a track by Dan X2 that was made in May of 2016.  It has gotten lost over the years.  Dan Blackard recently mentioned that it is missing in our song lists.  So here it is.  Brought back from the Dead.  I don't know what genre this should be called.  What do you think is the genre?

Here are the Lyrics:
yrics;

There's this island
In the sky
No one can see it
with ordinary eyes

A comfortable breeze
Is rocking the trees
The weather so fair
And It floats in the air

My Family and friends
Where they all stay
And I'm always welcome
when I come by there way

The hills fill with flowers
cool running streams
Beach sand for the hours
Of living the dream

There's an island in the sky
Just right for me
When clouds pass by

But The bottles gone dry
And so very tired am I
A doorway for me
To sleep by and by

soon I'm alone
And I take all I own
To my island in the sky

There Is An Island In The Sky

lyrics:
As the night draws in
it casts shadows from the trees
high road
village street
sink into a silvery dream
a scene in my life
scene in my dreams
and every day the river flows
beneath the moon that glitters so bright 
scene in my dreams

How do you remember who you are?
Looking like the loneliest of stars

If only we could stand up straight
to hesitate
to fall and disappear 
Some day
the moonlight shade
the long too late, 
the rolling credits fade.

How do you remember growing old?
Written on your only rubbered soul
How can we still play it safe?
the teeth too straight
some day we'll take the stage
we'll start again
One day we'll run away from it all.

You should be in movies to the stars
You should be in movies, you're the star

How far am I supposed to fall?
How far am I supposed to fall?
Running away from it all.

We should be in movies, you're the star
You should be in movies, you're the star
You should be in moves, to the stars
(running away from it all)

How do you remember who you are?

You should be in movies

Please enjoy the deep sax sound!

Watching my brother Bri living out the last few months of his life was probably the most difficult thing I’ve ever had to do.  We had been told that there was no cure for his illness and that, at some point, the inevitable would happen.  But right up until the final few days, he refused to accept this, believing that, somewhere out there, there was some magical remedy he would find to take it all away.  He consulted with so many ‘alternative’ therapists, who all promised their brand of snake oil would deliver him from all that ailed him.  These were always both expensive and totally useless.  

A few weeks before he died, I was sitting by his hospital bed when he actually asked me, “Do You Believe In Magic?”  Knowing what I knew, what possible answer could I give?  Bri already knew the answer too but, all the same, I wished I could have given a convincing and unequivocal ‘yes’.  Difficult though it undoubtedly was, I had to reply that I didn’t but wanting to support him as best I could, told him I believed in him and would always love him 

There is nothing worse than watching someone in their final moments, particularly when they have been such an essential part of your life.  As you get older, facing this scenario becomes unavoidable and though age provides a better understanding of the fact, it never reduces the pain.  Both Gal and I faced similar bedside questions from Bri and this song tries to reflect those onerous, interminable times when one has to be both supportive and honest all at the same time.   

What can you say about Hans that hasn’t already been said?  When I sent him the demo of this song I did wonder if the subject matter may prove difficult.  But his  incredible ability to manifest every emotional nuance in his arrangements is something that always inspires and impresses, as demonstrated so beautifully here.  (Terry Reeves)

Do you believe in magic?
Do you believe in changing world?
Do you believe it's tragic?
Do you believe there's more to be told? 

Casting spells with waving hands
Praying thoughts with pagan strands
Making deals with Devil's soul
Sharing fears for spirit parole
No, no

Do you believe in magic?
Do you believe in immortal thoughts?
Do you believe in metric?
Do you believe in nine times nought? 

Tribal dancing, releasing curse
Tantric thinking, avoid the worse
Watching stars for future needs
Not drinking tea but reading leaves
No, no

Do you believe in magic?
Do you believe in sacrifice? 
Do you believe in panic?
Do you believe in rolling dice?

Chanting mantras one more day
Reiki heat takes pain away
Resurrection not in the plan
Wooden cross protect the man
No, no

Do you believe in magic?
Do you believe in searching prayer?
Do you believe in medics?
Do you believe in going nowhere? 

Holding bible in folded arms
Writing words, performing psalms
Chasing shadows, finding light
Avoid the truth, increase the fight
(Repeat verse)

No, no

Do you believe in magic? (Repeat until end)

It’s been a year since the tragedy of Kyoto Animation arson attack in Japan.
As many as 36 talented artists were killed with no reason.They were no doubt treasures of Japan.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyoto_Animation_arson_attack
Many young innocent artists fell victim to malicious crime. Families are still devastated by the sudden unjust deaths of their sons or daughters.
With condolences and support from many fans worldwide, Kyoto Animation has come to life again and is producing new excellent works.

I dedicate this song to the victims and Kyoto Animation.

HE NEVER GOT A FAIR SHAKE			
NO MATTER HOW HARD HE TRIED			
NEVER GOT A BRAKE			
ALWAYS WANDERIN' WHY			
			
NO MATTER WHAT WAS GOIN' ON			
HE NEVER CAME OUT ON TOP			
WHAT DID HE DO WRONG			
HAD WORKED NONSTOP			
			
(CHORUS)			
HIS GRANDPA ALWAYS SAID			
JUST KEEP ON KEEPIN' ON			
NEVER GIVE UP THE FIGHT			
KEEP ON KEEPIN' ON			
ALLWAYS DO WHAT'S RIGHT			
KEEP ON KEEPIN' ON			
ANGEL'S ARE ALMOST IN SIGHT			
			
HE DIDN'T LET IT GET HIM DOWN 			
DID THE BEST THAT HE COULD DO			
RUNNIN' FOR THAT TOUCHDOWN			
CAUSE HIS TIME WAS OVERDUE			
			
HIS LIFE WAS FILLED WITH STRIFE			
NEVER STOPPED DREANIN'			
WANTED THE BEST THINGS IN LIFE			
NEVER STOPPED TRYIN'			
			
(REPEAT CHORUS)			
			
NEVER GIVE UP THE FIGHT			
ANGEL'S ARE ALMOST IN SIGHT

Keep On Keepin' On - Lyrics by Tony Harris - Featuring Chuck Aaron - New Original

This is the opening track of my newest release "Channel to Change" due out in the middle of January on music platforms. As always, thanks for your support. 

Lyrics
Decent wage it never rang, rings around your head
Wisdom glossed and lustful drops left holding up the bed
Rings and magic for little Rosey
Pockets full of Posies

All fall down
All fall down

Always tried to make the contact
Reflected in the mirrors of days
Dancing graceless in the vein
Shameless in its game
 While the scores for more
And tempted taste texted me in a haze.
More than that a mysterious cat
Came by to stake its claim

All fall down
All fall down

Down to this I knew it would be
sedated in a trance
Nestled soft like mama’s milk and tender 
With a glance
 Side step problems
And their Goblins
To laugh it up at the dance. 
 Measured thought and pillow talk
Makes room for romance.  

Reveler of Days
Reveler of Days 

Decent wage it never rang, rings around your head
Wisdom glossed and lustful drops left holding up the bed
Rings and magic for little Rosey
Pockets full of Posies
Rings and magic for little Rosey
Pockets full of Posies

All fall down
All fall sown

All Fall Down

I wrote this song during the lockdown, imagining how much more difficult things would have been in days gone by, when earlier generations had so very little means of communication. Travelling minstrels would go from town to town and entertain the local people. In my mind, I pictured townsfolk gathering to listen to a minstrel's song, bringing a message of hope, that their future would be brighter, all joining in to sing in candlelight, illuminating the darkness. I hope this song brings some joy in dark times.
LYRICS:
The people gathered round
To hear the minstrel sing
A song to bring them hope
That winter would turn to spring
The frost was biting deep
And the snow had lain so long
So the people gathered round 
To hear the minstrel’s song

The winds of change are coming
Let them hear you sing
The winds of change will turn
Winter into spring

Times may be hard
But somehow we know
That seasons will come
And seasons will go
So together all as one
With voices so strong
People gathered round
To sing the minstrel’s song 

The winds of change are coming
Let them hear you sing
The winds of change will turn
Winter into spring

Their voices all rang out
Out into the night
The magic of a song
Sung by candle light
Watching the flames
Of the candles burn
Waiting …for 
The winds of change to turn

The winds of change are coming
Let them hear you sing
The winds of change will turn
Winter into spring

The Winds of Change

The Winds Of Change

I started with music in the 60s. I was part of several bands.
While my blood boiled to the rhythm of the best Rock & Roll, a tsunami called The Beatles came from Liverpool. That tide lasted twenty years during which the best musicians of the 20th century appeared.
I was there !!!
In the mid-seventies I completely abandoned music. I didn't play a single note for the next fifty years. And now, a little older, I play music in my studio again with more enthusiasm than ever. I think I never should have left it... It gives me life.....
Thank you all, friends, for taking part of your precious time to listen to my humble noises...

Loving You Slowly
