"Bela Lugosi's Dead" is a gothic rock song written by the band Bauhaus. The song was the band's first single, released in August 1979, and is often considered to be the first gothic rock record to be released.[1][2] It did not enter the UK charts. The B-side featured the song "Boys" and some versions also include a portion of an early demo recording of what would be their next single, "Dark Entries". It was released on CD in 1988[3] and was compiled on the 1998 album, Crackle - The Best of Bauhaus. The original sleeve art was taken from a still of the film The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.[2] The authors listed on the single are David Haskins, Kevin Haskins, Peter Murphy and Daniel Ash.[4]

Troubled Sea
Lyrics & song, Acoustic Guitar & Production & Piano: Stella Schiavo

My soul is a troubled  sea
No boat can  sail on  it
No  matter how  strong it’s,  it always will sink
Into the depth of me 


The sky remains the same
While the clouds are sailing away
No matter if a thousands of stars will fall down
The  waves keep on moving…
And the  sun keeps on burning…

And  if someday you miss me
Go search for the waves
I’ll be there 
My feet buried in sand
With chaos inside my head

Seagull rise and fly
The beauty of white against light blue
No matter the sound it makes, I still hear the song
The ocean keeps on singing
And the wings keep on gliding

And if someday you miss me
Go search for the waves
I’ll be there 
Both hands buried in sand… 

And when you finally have forgotten me
Don’t sail along the bay
I’ll be there with storms in my heart
My waves will drown you again…

Troubled Sea

Times are strange. 
Times have been strange for two years now. Everything that made our human bonds has been damaged and altered, each one becoming the enemy of his brother, the presumed responsible for his misfortune. Each one being ready to do anything to survive this anguish intrinsic to each one, maintained without interruption, of the fear of dying and the fear of losing everything. We have entered into a logic of survival, even if it meant sacrificing part of the population (nurses, doctors suspended, social death of the unvaccinated, limited access to care and more complex procedures). Debate and critical thinking were forbidden. Ideologists versus scientists. Fact checkers (gaming experts sometimes) versus international medical experts. The narrative (narratif is an adjective in French, but the noun does not exist in this language.It has however been imposed as a standard in French in order to exclude any other discourse than the official "narrative" during the health crisis) has become an indisputable truth and no matter what the realness is. 
In these strange times, state violence has reached a crescendo. France, country of the declaration of human rights, but not of the rights neither of the human nor of the demonstrators. 
State violence and the arrests of demonstrators abroad arouse indignation and shock French public opinion, but not those that take place in France. Too bad for the injured and the mutilated. Sometimes they no longer have two eyes to cry with. 
Every authoritarian regime knows that art is subversive. Artists are often the first to be muzzled or locked up unless they pledge allegiance to the ideas of the political party. In France, an artist from Nice, Chloe Sage, was handcuffed, brutalized and taken to the police station.Her audience was gassed and manhandled by agents who were supposed to be under oath and representing the state. 
Her crime, a street concert at 7pm with songs where the word freedom came up maybe a little too often. A problem of songwriting probably...
Victor Jara whose politicized songs and tragic destiny still serve as a symbol of freedom in Chile and elsewhere, moved in their time the so democratic democracies, maybe it was necessary that Chloe, also guitarist, had her hands mutilated like Victor Jara, so that we notice better the censorship and the violence that she suffered, even that we believe in it. 
Moreover, France is honored in the first places for its intensive censorship on the internet and FB since the last years, and for its always lagging behind in terms of press freedom, 34th in the international ranking. 
Back to our fear-mongering narrative, it has now changed its theme, but it continues with a new geopolitical manipulation. 
The problem is not the lies, the propaganda, the instrumentalization of facts, the problem is that real people are paying the price with their lives. 
Innocent victims died during the health crisis, innocent victims die from the conflicts.
We stand with these victims, not with the oppressors who use their sacrificed lives to scare and influence opinion. 
Imagine a world without countries, without borders, without wars, imagine a world without cold-hearted puppeteers where people would share the world in peace...

Canción Para Antonia



I very much enjoy working Kellie. She is an excellent singer who pushes me to be better.

Similar to me she likes to explore different musical territory. She asked me to write a jazz song for her. So I came up with this. It is smooth and easy and I enjoy it very much. I hope you do too.

Lyrics: Memories On A Breeze
Kellie Rowley and Dan Lockhart

Can I tell you the truth? Are we present right now ?
I can't read your mind, but I'm trying.
It's a dark night of this soul,
Here in at the summers golden end
And I'm just wandering. ( With an a)
Memories come on a breeze and how I long to retain them close to me.
The future falls like a wave and we're somewhere in between.
It seems like the moment gets lost and we've forgotten just how to be
I can't read your mind, but I'm trying.

Chorus
It's ok, I don't expect you to answer me. Me and the moon are just thinking out loud
Feel my heart, it still pounds in a steady beat.

Chorus x2

Once again I had the privilege of working with a great instrumental track from a great SoundCloud artist.  Once again I wrote the lyrics based off his established title “Something New”.   I felt the underlying music track was classic epic, so gave a classic saga -  breakup, internet search, leading soul searching and more important discoveries.   I hope you enjoy.

Yesterday I looked around, you’re not there 
All the places and I found, you’re not there 
I am lost without this 
Thought about it one more time 
There still me, there’s no you 
Need to find something new

Across the globe and down the hall, you’re not there 
A bottled message floats to all, you’re not there 
Upon the net its drifting 
Tells of how I’m missing you 
How I need something new 
something new

Got my message out there 
Cyberland of despair 
Is anybody prepared 
Do you want to make a start

You’re not there 
Gotta find something new 
Something new

What is it I’m missing, Is it something from inside 
If I’m not mistaken, Something new is breaking free 
While I’m out there searching, it was lying deep in me 
And it took your leaving, to shine the light for me to see something new

Something new inside of me, something new

Something New (Collaboration between 1st50 and Cookada3)
