LifeInMono(GreatExpectationsSoundtrackCover)

Another evening in the traffic
stucked for hours on the highway
and all that , just for a ghostly day
behind a cash register

she wanted to write
sad but beautiful stories
just to sublimate her memories
her own little secrets
and reinvent her future
made of special days
without anyone having anything to say 

she dreamed to write
that she was a fighter , a rebel 
able to avoid the worse
and never grow old 
she dreamed to write
that she was blonde ans sensual
just to give herself the right to lie
and go laughing 
to see her own name on a book 
her name on a book 

she wanted to write
eternal stories
of betrayed hearts and feelings 
words that talk of her 
about this love that kills 
and reborn even stronger
some romantic comedies

she dreamed to write
that she was a fighter , a rebel 
able to avoid the worse
and never grow old 
she dreamed to write
that she was blonde ans sensual
just to give herself the right to lie
and go laughing 
to see her own name on a book 
her name on a book

Romance in Time

Somewhere in Time

Somewhere In Time

Soar (Original Instrumental)

Empathy is the ability to share someone else's feelings or experiences by imagining what it would be like to be in that person's situation, to take on another's perspective, to understand, feel, and possibly share and respond to their experience.

I Feel You

i feel you

'Seeking the Light' evokes a mood that is both relaxing and subtly melancholic. The flute's haunting melody dances gracefully above the soothing backdrop, creating a sense of longing and hope. This track is for modern classical fans who enjoy relaxing instrumentals or those seeking solace in the beauty of neoclassical compositions.

Seeking The Light

Composed & Produced by Val Akey.
Thank you for listening!

Release date: 29 April 2024

MEMOIRES DE VIE

Le temps passe lentement
La roue tourne comme on dit
Mais le passage des ans
Ne créé jamais l'oubli.
Les années qui avancent
Et continuent toujours
En prennent de l'importance
Dans ce qui fait l'amour.
Et plus on prend de l'âge
Conscient évidemment
Dans nos têtes voyagent
L'ancien et le présent.
Dans les jours qui vieillissent
Et voient passer l'antan
Tous les temps qui se glissent
Doucement et pourtant.

Il reste dans nos mémoires
Amour et belles histoires.
Tout ce qui fait la vie 
Réchauffe nos cœurs aussi

Il reste dans nos mémoires
Amour et belles histoires.
Tout ce qui fait la vie 
Réchauffe nos cœurs aussi

Bien s'aimer, se comprendre
C'est un toujours un voyage
Et on se laisse prendre 
A s'écrire de belles pages

Sur la terre en plaisir
De grands moments passés
Pleurs ou éclats de rires
Nous ont fait exister.

Revivre dans ses pensées
Ne voyant que lueurs
Et jamais oublier
Que c'était le bonheur.

La vie suivant son sort
Nous laisse de bons moments
Si jamais on s'endort
Sans des mots et pourtant

Il reste dans nos mémoires
Amour et belles histoires.
Tout ce qui fait la vie 
Réchauffe nos cœurs aussi

MEMORIES OF LIFE

Time passes slowly
The wheel turns as they say
But the passage of years
Never create oblivion.
The years that advance
And still continue
take on importance
In what makes love.
And the older we get
Obviously aware
In our heads travel
The old and the present.
In the days that grow old
And see yesteryear pass by
All the times that slip by
Slowly and yet.

He remains in our memories
Love and beautiful stories.
Everything that makes life
Warm our hearts too
He remains in our memories
Love and beautiful stories.
Everything that makes life
Warm our hearts too

Love each other well, understand each other
It's always a journey
And we let ourselves be taken
To write beautiful pages

On earth in pleasure
Great times past
Crying or bursts of laughter
Made us exist.

Revive in your thoughts
Seeing only lights
And never forget
That it was happiness.

Life following its fate
Leave us good times
If we ever fall asleep
Without words and yet

He remains in our memories
Love and beautiful stories.
Everything that makes life
Warm our hearts too

MEMOIRES DE VIE

My first work recorded in Kharkiv during the war. They will never steal our peace of mind... My dear Dad was always with me when I was a child, but now we've been apart for over 2 years due to the war. My parents' home exists only in my memory. I wish all the children in Ukraine whose fathers have to defend the country peace and reunion of their families.

La Fableuse 

Texte : Say M
Chant : Karine
Musique : Alain Illos

Qui es-tu ?
Toi que je ne connais pas 
Qui refuse les maux de tête 
Qui s'amuse des mots de soi 

Je suis la Fableuse
J'aurais pu dire la Fabuleuse 
Mais je ne bois pas

J'ai donc ignoré le «u»
Qui ira où il voudra
Je n'ordonne pas les lettres 
Mais je ne les laisse pas 
S'installer comme on sème 
Les mots ne repoussent pas 
Déjà qu'ils changent à peine 
Oui mais, voilà... 

Regardez, au moins ceux qui s'aiment 
Les mots, ils ne les cherchent pas
Ils fabulent parfois, peut-être
Mais de chaque instant, ils croient 
On les croisera le nez en l'air 
Respirant celui des sous-bois 
Ils rentreront saouls à tue-tête 
D'un amour qui, in fine, finira

Qui es-tu ?
Toi que je ne connais pas 
Qui refuse les maux de tête 
Qui s'amuse des mots de soi 

Je suis la Fableuse
J'aurais pu dire la Fabuleuse 
Mais je ne bois pas 

Car le «u» parfois s'entête 
dans rupture, se place deux fois 
Je n'ordonne pas les lettres 
Mais je ne les laisse pas 
S'installer comme on sème 
Les mots ne repoussent pas 
J'écris des maux
Des morceaux d'êtres 
J'écris des mots 
Qui parlent d'émois
 La Fableuse, c'est moi

La Fableuse avec Karine

Mediterranean Connection (For three guitars)

If I can stop one heart
from breaking
I shall not live in vain
If I can ease one Life the Aching
Or cool one in pain

Or help one fainting Robin 
Unto his Nest again
I shall not live in Vain.

The song-part recorded in 1999, the instrumental added in 2017. 

English / Italian lyrics

like thoughts
containing heat
as if forming
thunderstorms of words
and then you stop to look for
something important to say
something special
unlikely treasures to safeguard

Do you see these images 
of fleeting clouds?
Do you see these evenings 
that spend lonely?
When for a moment you regain
your usual good mood
I climb into your hair
I rest on your multicoloured gaze  

like thoughts
containing heat
as if forming
thunderstorms of words
when for a moment I think back
to your multicoloured gaze
you will already be sleeping
hugged at my words 

----

come pensieri
che contengono calore
come se formassero
temporali di parole
e poi ti fermi a cercare
qualcosa di importante da dire
qualcosa di speciale
tesori improbabili da custodire 

le vedi queste immagini
di nuvole passeggere
le vedi queste sere
che trascorrono da sole
quando per un attimo ritrovi
il tuo solito buonumore
mi arrampico fra i tuoi capelli
mi poso sul tuo sguardo multicolore  

come pensieri
che contengono calore
come se formassero
temporali di parole
quando per un attimo ripenso
al tuo sguardo multicolore
starai già dormendo
abbracciata alle mie parole

------

Vendrá un viento del sur (Circe Maia)

Vendrá un viento del sur a golpear en las puertas cerradas y en los vidrios a golpear en los rostros de agrios gestos.

Vendrán alegres oleajes ruidosos subiendo las veredas y calles silenciosas:por el barrio del puerto.

Que se lave la cara de la ciudad endurecida
sus piedras y maderas polvorientas, raídas
su corazón sombrío.

Que por lo menos haya asombro en las opacas miradas taciturnas.

Y que muchos se asusten y los niños se rían
y el verdor de la luz del agua nos despierte
nos bañe, nos persiga.

Que nos de por correr y abrazarnos que se abran las puertas de todas las casas y salga la gente por las escaleras, desde los balcones llamándose…

Nuit et Jour .... Que l'on pourrait aussi définir comme sans cesse .... Ne dit-on pas que l'homme est aux prises avec la nature, sans cesse il la modifie, et sans cesse il en est modifié? 
Cette société qu'il a créé, s'auto-produit sans cesse mais hélas aussi, s'auto-détruit sans cesse.    
 
Avec Clara Sorace (Italie) et Sergi Yaro (Ukraine) ....

***************************************************************************************************

Night and Day .... Which could also be defined as ceaseless .... Isn't it said that man is at grips with nature, ceaselessly modifying it, and ceaselessly being modified by it? 
The society we've created is constantly self-producing, but also, alas, constantly self-destructing.

In The Dark (feat. Aldae)

Listen here

For many years I have wanted to see the beauty of the Celtic Highlands. I imagine it would be wonderful. I have been inspired by the previous track ("Ginger Angel") by my friend David Dunham, in which I was able to play.
I know that David has a similar wish and he loves celtic music. Since I have come to appreciate him very much in the past, I would like to dedicate this song to him. This song is for you and "Keep Celtic", David. And please forgive my poor guitar playing. 😉 

I invite you to explore the Highlands in your mind with this track to my music.
I wish you a pleasant journey.

I have TMJ jaw surgery on my birthday 20 August.. good or bad we will see.

Unbelievable, Spotify people still try to sabotage me. A girl from instagram (AC) and her piano, string label tried to secretly release her songs/album (oh, just coinicidentally 8 tracks as well) on the day before all my releases and my album). Sad she does not believe in her own music?? I believe in my music. I have changed all the dates now.. Stay tuned for the details. You can still presave without a problem..

In my heart the memory of what would never be
will remain forever free..

A fragment of a dream
in an achingly bright reality never seen..

Digits

This is the last one of 44 songs I wrote with my mom’s Spanish guitar in my university years, songs I’ve been arranging and posting to SC for the last 6 years (I’ve skipped 4 of them which will become a conceptual album soon).

I’m so glad to have https://soundcloud.com/janinelevinson’s help on polishing the English texts and lending her vocal and painting arts to such an important song for me.

Also must credit https://soundcloud.com/user-498459842 for kindly and freely mastering the track.
 
CANCIÓN TRISTE CUANDO ESTOY SOLO (SAD SONG WHEN I’M ALONE)

Canción triste cuando estoy solo, para que sepas que yo nunca me iré.
Canción triste por todo lo que amo, último recuerdo de lo que pudo ser.

Sad song when I'm alone, so that you know I will never be gone.
Sad songs for all I love, are the last reminders of my ancient glow.

Do you think that someone somewhere else would ever care that I was here?
Do you think a future living man will give a damn for you and me?
Who could he be?

¿Piensas que a alguien a quien no conocí le importará si estuve aquí,
o no estuve yo?
¿Piensas que alguien que viva después se acordará de ti o de mí?
¿Quién podrá ser?

Canción triste…

¿Piensas que una nueva vida de amor nos bastará para creer,
para sentir?
¿Acaso te importa lo que piense la gente de mis intereses para morir por mí,
para morir por mí?

Do you think another life of love will be enough for us to see,
for us to feel?
Do you care what people really think about my pride, and will you die,
will you die with me?

Sad song…

The moon touch of our hearts reveals

The embracing hearts slowly heals..
