Bloody Brilliant song..... How am I not a bigger megastar?

One of the last great places to enjoy a meal is a diner, and these are going away. From all the options to the clientele you come across to the 24/7 schedule, diners are one of the best things going. SOME THOUGHTS ON THEM in a very calm non swearing way

Finally get to hear how these lyrics work when produced into something that sounds like an actual song.
........................................................

Time stood still, just for a moment
And the earth was flat and endless

And a light shone down from a higher realm
And the peace was totally limitless

And my dreams they all crashed down
In a sculpture on the ground

And all my loss was found
And all my sorrow drowned
And everything was fine
Just for a moment

Time stood still, one more moment
Let it last a little longer

And justice was held high and real
And the love could never be stronger

And my heart could never cry
And my mind it could not lie

And my fear lay down and died
And my soul lit up the sky
And standing still was I 
Just for a moment

SOLO

And my heart could never cry
And my mind it could not lie

And my fear lay down and died
And my soul lit up the sky
And standing still was I
Just for a moment

Just one moment
One moment that will never be again

Time Stood Still

Strip it all back, cut through the noise,
Find the core truth that everyone enjoys.
Mission in a sentence, vision crystal clear,
Values that align—now the path appears.
Purpose like a beacon, lighting up the way,
A story worth telling in everything you say.

[Pre-Chorus]
What are you offering, what sets you apart?
Define the value, let it come from the heart.
No more clutter, no more haze,
The sharper the message, the louder it plays.

[Chorus] 
Simplify!
Amplify! 
Let it resonate
Take the simple truth and communicate.

Simplify! 
Amplify! 
Make the message strong,
Every word's a spark, lighting up the song.

[Verse 2]
Target in sight, you know who they are,
Speak their language, and you'll make them feel like a star.
Value proposition in a single breath,
It’s the heartbeat of the brand, no no nothing less.
Position in the market, gotta take a stance,
Precision in the pitch makes it more than just chance.

[Pre-Chorus]
Craft the key message, watch it align,
When everything is clear, it stands the test of time.
Less complication, more focus and drive,
The simpler you get, the more it comes alive

....and loud!.

[Chorus] 
Simplify! (....and loud!)
Amplify! 
Let it resonate
Take the simple truth and communicate.

Simplify! 
Amplify! 
Make the message strong,
Every word's a spark, lighting up the song.

Amplify
Simplify!
Amplify!
Let it resonate,
Take the essence and communicate.
Simplify, amplify, feel the echoes grow,
Once you've got it right, the world will know.

Bridge: Make It Real
Strip it to the soul, and the people will feel,
Clarity in purpose, the story becomes real.
No more confusion, the spotlight's on us,
When you know what you stand for, it builds the trust.

[Outro]
Simplify to amplify, make the impact last,
The future’s in our hands, and we’re moving fast.
From a whisper to a shout, a message to ignite,
Simplify, amplify, and shine in the light.

Simplify!
Amplify!
Make the message strong
Every word's a spark
Lighting up the song

Amplify!
Simplify!
Amplify!
Let it resonate, 
Take the essense and communicate.

Simplify. Amplify. Feel the echos grow.
Once you got it right, the world will know
Make It Real strip it to the soul, and the people will feel,
Clarity in purpose, the story becomes real.
No more confusion, the spotlight's on us,
When you know what you stand for, it builds the trust.

Simplify to amplify, make the impact last,
The future’s in our hands, and we’re moving fast.
From a whisper to a shout, a message to ignite,
Simplify, amplify, and shine in the light.

Simplify Amplify [Sketch Pad version]

It’s Osmosis, Bruv’ – Early life evolution UK Rap

Oi, way back in the ooze, bruv, just single cells,
No eyes, no legs, just vibes in the swells,
Primordial soup, tryna get that divide on,
Mitochondria movin', power up the icon.

Nucleus guardin' DNA for the spin,
Cell membrane flex, keep the baddies out and in,
Oxygen's toxic, ain't no air to breathe yet,
Just chemical reactions, energy we get.

Flagella whippin', tryna get a move,
Floatin' through the sludge, no groove, no tune,
Splittin' in two, that's the only kinda plan,
Asexual hustle, no need for a clan.

It’s osmosis, bruv, diffusion keep us thrivin’,
Everyone just strivin', enzymes keep it vibrant,
Ain't no predators yet, but survival's still tough,
Bubble in the sludge, bruv, you gotta get buff.

Ammonia in the mix, acid in the tides,
Chemical concoctions got the big divide,
Ribosomes chattin', buildin' up proteins,
Little factories workin', ain't no rest in the scene.

Mutations poppin' off, new functions in the brew,
Some get stronger, others, they’re through,
Competition’s silent, ain't no roars, just survival,
Adapt or get absorbed, it’s all about revival.

Cytoplasm bubblin', keepin' things floatin',
Endoplasmic reticulum, proteins promotin’,
Ridin' on a wave of ancient molecules,
This ain’t no jungle, but it’s got its own rules.

It’s osmosis, bruv, diffusion keep us thrivin’,
Everyone just strivin', enzymes keep it vibrant,
Ain't no predators yet, but survival's still tough,
Bubble in the sludge, bruv, you gotta get buff.

Cells gang up, tryna form that first link,
Multi-cellular dreams, gotta think, gotta sync,
Collaboration's key, specialisation comin' through,
Photosynthesis risin', gettin’ energy from the blue.

Sunlight hittin', some cells start to change,
Chloroplasts in the mix, bruv, energy exchange,
Oxygen spreads, some can’t take the vibe,
Others learn to breathe it, evolution on the rise.

Protozoa on the come-up, tryna find that next level,
Lookin’ at the neighbours like, “how do we settle?”
From slime in the depths to complex situations,
That’s the way we hustle, primitive foundations.

It’s osmosis, bruv, diffusion keep us thrivin’,
Everyone just strivin', enzymes keep it vibrant,
Ain't no predators yet, but survival's still tough,
Bubble in the sludge, bruv, you gotta get buff.

So, back in the soup, where it all began,
Tiny little hustlers makin’ moves, layin' plans,
Life's first struggle, every split's a new start,
Survivin' in the muck, single cells playin' their part.

SHOOT UP
The trip today saw you on your way
Wave your friends goodbye
You got a ticket for a holiday
In the air you’re gonna fly

Lose yourself on a distant plane
Astral dream of liquid mind
Another ticket and you’re off again
Never knowing what you’ll find

Waiting for the needle
To carry your soul away
Shatter your plans for tomorrow
You’ve only got one more day

So Shoot Up, you’re gonna get high
Shoot up, you’re gonna die
Shoot up, you’re gonna get high
Shoot up, you try to hide from yourself, but you can’t
So shoot up…

The trip today made you pale and grey
Man, you flew so high
Maybe you should find another way
Maybe you’re living a lie

Waiting for the needle
To carry your soul away
Shatter your plans for tomorrow
You’ve only got one more day

So Shoot Up, you’re gonna get high
Shoot up, you’re gonna die
Shoot up, you’re gonna get high
Shoot up, you try to hide from yourself, but you can’t
So shoot up…
So shoot up
Yeah!!!
Shoot up!

Shoot Up

An attempt at the ultimate timely tribute, to capture U2's incredible song from 1983 and make it feel like it could have been written today, all the while trying to engineer an authentic reproduction of the original, as the basis. Anyway, Happy New Year! :-)    Keep the song on in the background and go back to what you were doing, if you like... Thanks for visiting :-) Cheers, Stefan.
