the wobble, tight mix and references to trees and clover got me fixated, thx

Wonderful instrumentation choices in this fine little pop ballad! Very nicely done Chris!

Nice song with interesting harmonic passages...

CREATING TUNES THAT MEAN SOMETHING....IT'S ABOUT BEING TRUE TO OURSELVES!

Seems #Soundcloud are now under new management, and will be staying in business, but for how long is dependent on how much activity we, the musicians, create and sustain!

DON'T JUST LIKE, LISTEN; DON'T JUST LISTEN, COMMENT; DON'T JUST COMMENT, SHARE!

Just clicking the like button doesn't prove you listen! I only return listens and feedback to those who give it. If you only subscribe to my page, or only click the like button, you won't hear from me.

Just adding numbers, or just clicking like buttons, makes us all wary, and that's what kills these music sites off; why should anyone keep giving support if they never get any back!

If all you do is post your tunes, sit back and wait for a miracle, guess what, it'll never happen! Only a small number of Soundcloud musicians are proactive, which is why Soundcloud is struggling to survive!

Without these music sites, your chances are screwed, so you need them, I need them, and we need each other! EXCHANGE SUPPORT!

Have I Told You Lately

do you remember, when you were young
everything you did, was just for fun
life was easy, oh so good
never made the effort, when you should

now your dreams, have disappeared
it all turned out, just like i feared
now your schemes , are up in smoke
i hope your words, make you choke

i remember, the lies and deceit
you were a liar and you were a cheat
you never cared, for any one else
everything you did, was just for yourself

now your dreams, have disappeared
it all turned out, just like i feared
now your schemes, are up in smoke
i hope your words, make you choke

Lies and deceit.

For my mother

Lyrics:

Mommy mommy mommy
Where did you go?
I never got the chance to tell you
That I love you so.
.
Mommy mommy mommy
Why did you leave?
I miss you every day
How do I continue this way?
.
Mommy mommy mommy
Mommy mommy mommy
Tell me how
Tell me now
Tell me
.
Mother!
Is it cold?
You faced something to which
We must all race
Death's door
.
Mother!
You're keeping me warm
My memories are blankets around my heart
They help me to mourn
.
Mommy mommy mommy
Mommy mommy mommy
Tell me how
Tell me now
Tell me
.
Are there stars where you are?
Can people see your smile?
Are there gardens filled with flowers,
For you to walk around, in?
.
Are there hopeful dreams?
And waterfalls and trees?
Sunny days with music playing?
Do you ever think of me?
.
Mommy mommy mommy
Mommy mommy mommy
Tell me how
Tell me now
Tell me
.
Mommy mommy mommy
Mommy mommy mommy
Tell me how
Tell me now
Tell me
.


Tell Me

Tell Me (2022)

Not really alt rock but the guitar solo at the end is fairly anarchic. 

To Fly or not to Fly 

To fly or not to fly YES!
To fly or not to fly NO! 

To fly or not to fly that is the question.    
It’s a no brainer ‘cept for the greedy and absurd.   
There’s kilos of carbon coming from engines. 
While the earth below - floods and burns

M’lady says she’s gotta fly yeah it’s in the blood            
She’s gotta have exotica - it’s there for the taking
Even though people of the world - are under the pump
And down there in the wheat fields – the crops are baking

To fly or not to fly YES!
To fly or not to fly NO! 

Hate being a gloomy carrier pigeon
But the writings there on the internet
The forecast for earth - it’s grim and turgid
Makes it dumb to fly airliner jets

M’lady says the scientists - will find a solution
There’s no need to live  - like a peasant farmer
She don’t need to feel shame - about her vapor trail
Hey she’s never been - to West Estonia

LYRIC

In happier days
I can’t remember when
But happier days
Than those we’re living in
You could enjoy the delusion 
Progress would bless our lives

Now here we are
Bitten by the bytes
And all of this awfulness thrives
 
A man of my years' seen things
He knows what tomorrow brings
Is another today
To piddle away
And though disillusion stings
A man of my years still sings his heart out

My last birthday wish
I asked to be ignored
But granting me this
The world could not afford
It had to be firing off rockets
Singing a children’s song off key
You see
A man of my years is done
Pretending he’s having fun 
If he feels it he laughs
If not he asks
Would it bother anyone 
If a man of my years should run and hide
While a shred of pride remains 

A slice of cake I’ll handle
Please don’t light that candle
My age in the icing
Is that meant to be a nice thing?
You tell me to blow now
But I will not
I have got to go now

I promise you this
I’ll make no promises
You’ll say I just did
But that’s not what this is
I’m merely aware of my standing
I’ve got to get off my feet

There’s kids on the lawn
I could shout at them
Instead I just yawn and repeat

A man of my years sits back
with a cold drink and salty snack
His work is long done
He’s had enough fun
Now he wants to relax
After laughter and tears
All the hurrahs and jeers
I’m a man of my years!

She’s in Black
Happy to a fault, sunny and forgiving
Taken for a fool, she’s in black
Once she had it all, once she was in clover
Nothing worried her, she’s in black

Picks up the pieces that scatter the floor
Puts them together as good as before
She will be back, no doubt of that
This time she’s wiser, not nicer and all in black

She's In Black

Zep inspired climate song.  As tu vu mon visage perdu?  L'as tu Vu?  This version is in English but if you want to hear my original lyrics check out Digues Deux Point Zero.

DON'T JUST LIKE, LISTEN; DON'T JUST LISTEN, COMMENT; DON'T JUST COMMENT, SHARE!
Anyone can click a like button; it doesn't prove you actually listened! Anyone that doesn't show proof they are actually listening will be removed from playlists! If the only support you give is to cynically click like buttons, you are contributing to the eventual demise of #Soundcloud and other music sites; without these sites to post your music on you are basically screwed; there won't be much point to making tunes if you don't have any kind of audience!

If you don't give REAL support, the support you get will eventually come to an end; we all eventually get tired of giving and getting nothing back. In the end, not only does it ruin the chances of everyone else, it will destroy your own. It is also a big mistake to underestimate the talent of others and overestimate your own! Don't assume their music can't be as good as yours; burying your head in the sand might protect your ego, but it doesn't do much for your reputation!

If you can't show respect, you don't deserve respect, so don't just click the like button, listen, and leave feedback to prove you listened. If you don't get into the habit of doing this, #Soundcloud won't be around much longer!

CREATING TUNES THAT MEAN SOMETHING....IT'S ABOUT BEING TRUE TO OURSELVES!

Seems #Soundcloud are now under new management, and will be staying in business, but for how long is dependent on how much activity we, the musicians, create and sustain!

Just like writing songs.
