I wonder why I try to get back childhood feelings, anyway, I've done this in a kind of nostalgic mood. But the childhood is gone, and I should try not to miss it.
The fact is that I failed in a lot of things in my past life, but I fought, fought against my own lacks. And will continue

Reminiscence Of A Lost Childhood

This is a very special Christmas song written by organist, keyboardist, and good friend, Norman Goad.  It was originally recorded in 2008 by Carlos Casso, sung by the late Joe Bolin (whom this posting is in memory of), and featuring the 1st Presbyterian Church, Amarillo children's choir, Chuck Alexander on bass, Dean Yates playing 2nd guitar and acoustic lead in the break, Norman on keys, and a special thanks to him for asking me to play acoustic guitar on his beautiful song.  The sheet music is also available at: https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/this-is-christmas-octavo-digital-sheet-music/22314828
Lyrics:
Candles in the window, snowflakes in the air,
This is Christmas, this is Christmas time.
People giving gifts and showing that they care,
This is Christmas, this is Christmas time.
But some people don't know what Christmas is,
They can't tell for all the traditions.
Christmas is a baby boy who was born,
And lived and died for you and me,
That's the gift of Christmas.
Baby in a manger, proving that he cares,
This is Christmas, this is Christmas time.
Candle in our heart shows people everywhere,
This is Christmas, this is Christmas time.
Instrumental break
Candles in the window, snowflakes in the air,
This is Christmas, this is Christmas time.
People giving gifts and showing that they care,
This is Christmas, this is Christmas time.
But some people don't know what Christmas really is,
They can't see through all the decorations,
God's gift is a baby boy that lived and died,
And rose again triumphantly.
That's the gift of Christmas.
Candles in the window, candle in our hearts,
Baby in a manger, that's the gift of Christmas time.

This Is Christmas (by Norman Goad; keyboards, Joe Bolin; lead vocal, David; acoustic guitar)

Some of the best music currently and historically comes out of England. I am a huge fan of Pink Floyd, Iron Maiden, Genesis, Traffic, and many more. Even though I live in the U.S., my favorite radio station has been BB6 in London for the last 15 years. The Peel Sessions are fantastic.

Isleworth is a suburb of London. Within this song, listen for the background hum of WWII bomber aircraft. Isleworth certainly took some hits during the invasion.

Thank you for listening!

Isleworth

Hello… so have you ever noticed certain things about yourself that never change? This song, ‘Just Like I Always Do’ is about that very thing. I found myself  outside the other day, playing with rivulets of snow melt. Making channels with a rake, for the water to run down and I laughed… my feet were soaking wet and I was having a grand old time. Reminded me of a time in kindergarten, when I arrived late to school, soaked to the bone, as I was playing in the rain along the way. So that playful side of me has not changed at all. I also noticed, like flowing water, how vital it is for me to keep moving. A fluidity when it comes to living and learning about life. Recently, singing has been like that for me. Bear with me on this. A little backstory: As a kid, I had a brief stint in my middle school choir. I did not want to join the choir, that’s for sure. The music teacher had picked us out, after brief singing auditions. After our first performance, my mother, God rest her soul, told me I did not have to go back to choir anymore, if I did not want to. Out of the 50 kids on stage, I was the only one not singing. I just looked down so no one could see my mouth… except my eagle-eyed mom. Simple as that, I was done with it. There were other things I wanted to do as a precociously rebellious kid, running around the neighborhood, as it were. Now, half a century later, I have been learning to sing on my own. It has not been easy uncovering that latent voice of mine. Looking back, sometimes I wish I had stuck with it as a kid. So about a decade or so ago, this dude I worked with asked me if I’d show him some stuff on guitar. His mom was a musician and music teacher and he grew up with music in his life. He was always singing and playing guitar. As we hung out, he noticed I never sang and asked me why. After basically dodging his question, he told me the only thing stopping me from singing was me. Talk about a hard lesson to swallow. So now, bringing us up to speed, I had some fun exploring my nascent singing voice on this song. The image is of me and Garnet running the hills in early Spring. Hope you like it and thanks for listening. Take care, Mark

Just Like I Always Do

"Backfire" is a song about false friends and wishing that their toxic shoots fire back at them. However, your wish stays a wish, because your pride and dignity keeps you from causing harm. 
Lemonbrew started the collaboration with a catchy and energetic rock progression. I rearranged the song and wrote lyrics and a vocal melody. Later, Flinn joined us to rock out the vocals. Thank you very much for collaborating, it's been a lot of fun!

==== LYRICS ====

You wasted my precious time
on spreading rumours and lies
Shooting me in  a drive-by
drawing me into riptide

I'll catch this ricochet
I gonna... misbehave and disobey,
I wanna... 

Watch how burn your fingers and...
build a castle on quicksand
or wade through wasted land
(Of course I wanna...)

Catch a ball and I fire it back to you!
Catch you out and I fire it back to you!
Catch hell and I fire it back 
And again and again and again 
That's what you make me do!

So I light up a light
To escape from the twilight
Not ready for the limelight
Not ready to start a fight

I'll catch this ricochet
I gonna... misbehave and disobey!

Catch a ball and I fire it back to you!
Catch you out and I fire it back to you!
Catch hell and I fire it back 
And again and again and again 
That's what you make me do!

That's what you make me do!

One day, I gonna be tough
give way for vengeance and grudge
I'll push you into the sludge
Where there is noone to judge

And I wanna... 

Catch a ball and I fire it back to you!
Catch you out and I fire it back to you!
Catch hell and I fire it back 
And again and again and again 
That's what you make me do!

That's what you made me do!

Backfire (with Lemonbrew feat. Flinn)

I wrote this song about Johnny Cash who is one of my favorite singers

the man in black

A collaboration between :
Shane Beck, The Last American Poet (Words)
progettosonoro (Music)

If you should repeat the words of the poem in which I gave
Were they meaningless things you said, a poet you swore to save
Could you truly feel all those things that you said that made me sigh
To silence the poet of your life, knowing without you I will surely die
And yes, She Called Me Her King, only to let it all go & pass me by

To say it is best to let go because giving me hope is cruel & wrong
I wrote thousands of poems for you & used your name in a song
Why has She Called Me Her King when it was never really true?
Knowing that all those years I never once let go of you
I never once let go of you

Shane Beck & progettosonoro - She Called Me Her King
