It does feel like home listening you great singers, songwriters, lyricist, musician friends! Most are the newer songs, reflective or mood-setting, with intermissions of nicely played instrumentals. Hope you guys enjoy the collection :)   

Musically yours!
Sam.

(I'm sorry that I've locked my reposts for a week and was not able to actually repost some songs, but don't want to wait on this fantastic set, so please share it for me, ok?)

ROOTS

Dear friends, it's with honour and pride that I present you a new collaboration between the amazing guitarist and composer Frank "Pio" Piochowiak ( @pios-hausmusik ) and yours truly. (Remember the wonderful guitar in Far So Far, https://soundcloud.com/copyc4t/far-so-far-with-marlinda-song ? That's him!)&#13;
Pio has recently published a beautiful song, Pauls Art&#13;
https://soundcloud.com/pios-hausmusik/pauls-art-song&#13;
telling us the tale of Simon & Garfunkel's concert in Central Park, in 1981.&#13;
Later on, he offered me to sing it. Right after my https://soundcloud.com/copyc4t/soundcloud-fair parody, how could I miss such a chance? :)&#13;
Resisting the temptation to add harmonizing vocals was futile, so here we are: 3 guitars and 2 voices, just by the 2 of us.&#13;
I assure you you'll enjoy Pio's production, so visit his cloud for a great listening experience, you won't regret it!&#13;
&#13;
By the way, this song has been recorded and produced entirely with Linux !&#13;
&#13;
Lyrics&#13;
&#13;
In 1981&#13;
in Central Park&#13;
The Sound of Silence&#13;
Fills the growing dark&#13;
&#13;
To songs two men perform&#13;
The people dance and sway&#13;
The Sound of Silence&#13;
makes a perfect day&#13;
Lay La lay&#13;
&#13;
Cheerful side by side&#13;
a peaceful party starts&#13;
The Sound of Silence&#13;
fills the peoples hearts&#13;
Lay La Lay&#13;
&#13;
Feeling groovy by the sound&#13;
The people got to dance&#13;
The Sound of Silence&#13;
fills the audience&#13;
&#13;
The People stand and hear&#13;
the Songs the men recite&#13;
The Sounds of Silence&#13;
touched them deep inside&#13;
Lay La Lay

Stu Larsen - Thirteen Sad Farewells

Now with video!!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEcuwKYVLf0

Dear friends and listeners, this is definitely not everyone's cup of tea, but after almost 1900 followers and over 15000 listens that I could never foresee when I first appeared here with https://soundcloud.com/copyc4t/speed-limit because of a Freesound Dare (a composition challenge on http://www.freesound.org ) history comes to a full circle.
("The Day After" update: make them over 1900 and over 16000, thank you all!)

This track happened because of another Freesound Dare (http://www.freesound.org/forum/dare-the-community/35370/) and it's a sort of soundscape based on more or less random radio recordings from this site: http://websdr.ewi.utwente.nl:8901/

Sad and awful as it is, I've tried to convey the sense of oppression we get from all the ongoing events against peace all around the world.

Attack Of The Drones (check description before going WTF :D ) - Video link in description

This is my first collab and it's with Anne Lee. I love her voice.

I wrote this song to describe the catharsis that comes from the sense of total loss in this world, during a time that I would consider a very low point in my life. The strong negative feelings I once felt, the mantra needed to get through the hours when nothing was distracting enough to cope. "The person that broke me can't possibly fix me it's more than we both can afford".

Waltz Of Regret - Crisp Bellemono f. Anne Lee

Simply too beautiful a song not to cover ... 

Lyrics :

Rows and flows of angel hair 
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere, 
I've looked at clouds that way.

But now they only block the sun, 
They rain and they snow on everyone
So many things I would have done, 
But clouds got in my way.

I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down and still somehow
It's cloud illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all

Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels, 
The dizzy dancing way that you feel
As every fairy tale comes real, 
I've looked at love that way.

But now it's just another show, 
You leave 'em laughing when you go
And if you care, don't let them know, 
Don't give yourself away.

I've looked at love from both sides now 
From give and take but still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall
I really don't know love at all

Tears and fears and feeling proud, 
To say "I love you" right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds, 
I've looked at life that way.

But now old friends are acting strange, 
They shake their heads, they say I've changed
Well something's lost, but something's gained 
In living every day.

I've looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all

I've looked at life from both sides now 
From up and down, and still somehow 
It's life's illusions I recall 
I really don't know life at all

It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life
I really don't know life at all

Both sides now - Joni Mitchell cover

When life gives you lemons you make lemonade
But SoundCloud's orange, and Orange was made

A matter of days and she stormed the place
Our streams were filled with her pretty face

She has a really great life - da, da, da, da
She makes our lives great too - doo, doo, doo, doo

[...]

She sings and writes and collaborates
and everything she does is just great

But then one day a thought crossed her mind
A brand new name was what she had to find

Thinking by day, and dreaming by night
Paper Messages sounded just right

So after this long and really really tough choice
She brings us new songs and the crowds rejoice

She has a really great life - da, da, da, da - sha la la la la
She makes our lives great too - doo, doo, doo, doo - sha la la la la
(Orange Orange Orange aren'tcha glad we got Paper Paper Paper Messages)

She has a really great life - da, da, da, da - sha la la la la
Let her make your life great too - doo, doo, doo, doo - sha la la la la
(Orange Orange Orange aren'tcha glad we got Paper Paper Paper Messages)

After my appearance with @Yugin83 in https://soundcloud.com/copyc4t/if-i-know-you-se-ti-conosco , translation of Ian's https://soundcloud.com/groups/if-i-know-you-like-i-do , Ian Melvin recently proposed me to translate Heart Shaped Hole in Italian, so I want to thank him publicly for:&#13;
- his trust in me as translator and singer&#13;
- his creativity in adding and processing the background vocals&#13;
- his patience in teamworking with me on the production phase, across different hardware and software&#13;
&#13;
Special thanks to Cindy Eichardt for her dreamy vocals!&#13;
&#13;
Listen to this and other beautiful songs on Ian's cloud too (@ian-melvin)!&#13;

&#13;
Ho perso il mio cuore&#13;
In un posto buio&#13;
Laggiù da qualche parte&#13;
Dimmi che son io, si, dimmi che son io&#13;
Non trovo più la chiave&#13;
O è rotta nella porta&#13;
Credici o no&#13;
Non trovo più il mio cuore&#13;
Non trovo più il mio cuore&#13;
Non trovo più il mio cuore&#13;
Non trovo più il mio cuore&#13;
Solo il vuoto che ha lasciato&#13;
Solo il vuoto che ha lasciato&#13;
Solo il vuoto che ha lasciato&#13;
&#13;
Anche l'anima è andata&#13;
Scoppiata in mille pezzi&#13;
Al sorgere del sole&#13;
Sarai stata tu&#13;
A tagliarmi tutti i fili&#13;
Per poi farmi crollare&#13;
Al buio non so dove&#13;
Non trovo più il mio cuore&#13;
Non trovo più il mio cuore&#13;
Non trovo più il mio cuore&#13;
Non trovo più il mio cuore&#13;
Solo il vuoto che ha lasciato&#13;
Solo il vuoto che ha lasciato&#13;
Solo il vuoto che ha lasciato&#13;
&#13;
Ho perso il mio cuore&#13;
In un posto buio&#13;
Laggiù da qualche parte, può darsi che sia lì&#13;
Ai piedi delle scale, delle nostre scale&#13;
Fossi solo io&#13;
A non aver la chiave, a non aver la chiave?&#13;
&#13;
Quella serratura&#13;
L'avessi mai trovata&#13;
Anche senza chiave&#13;
Magari l'avrei forzata&#13;
&#13;
Non trovo più il mio cuore&#13;
Neanche qui al buio&#13;
Non trovo più il mio cuore&#13;
Neanche qui al buio&#13;
Non trovo più il mio cuore&#13;
Solo il vuoto che ha lasciato&#13;
Solo il vuoto che ha lasciato&#13;
Solo il vuoto che ha lasciato&#13;
Solo il vuoto che ha lasciato&#13;
&#13;
Translated into English:&#13;
&#13;
I lost my heart&#13;
In a dark place&#13;
Somewhere over there&#13;
Tell me is it me, yes, tell me is it me&#13;
I can't find the key&#13;
Or it got broken in the door&#13;
Believe it, or not&#13;
I can't find my heart anymore&#13;
I can't find my heart anymore&#13;
I can't find my heart anymore&#13;
I can't find my heart anymore&#13;
Just the emptiness it left&#13;
Just the emptiness it left&#13;
Just the emptiness it left&#13;
&#13;
Even my soul is gone&#13;
Blown in a thousand pieces&#13;
As the sun was rising&#13;
It must have been you&#13;
To cut all my strings&#13;
And make me fall down&#13;
In the dark, don't know where&#13;
I can't find my heart anymore&#13;
I can't find my heart anymore&#13;
I can't find my heart anymore&#13;
I can't find my heart anymore&#13;
Just the emptiness it left&#13;
Just the emptiness it left&#13;
Just the emptiness it left&#13;
&#13;
I lost my heart&#13;
In a dark place&#13;
Somewhere over there, maybe it's there&#13;
At the foot of the stairs, of our stairs&#13;
Maybe it's just me&#13;
That never had the key&#13;
&#13;
That lock&#13;
If I ever found it&#13;
Even without the key&#13;
Maybe I could have picked it&#13;
&#13;
I can't find my heart anymore&#13;
Not even in the dark&#13;
I can't find my heart anymore&#13;
Not even in the dark&#13;
Just the emptiness it left&#13;
Just the emptiness it left&#13;
Just the emptiness it left&#13;
Just the emptiness it left

Ho Perso Il Mio Cuore (translation of Heart Shaped Hole by Ian Melvin)

Exploring music and sound possibilities on Linux. The search for software that can make me appear talented has failed so far; oh well... O:-)

...what software can't do, people can: collaborations!
