This is a new original song by myself.  Stylistically the song has a few different sounds coming from Rock, funk, and pop.  I recorded this song at home using real instruments, and a mix of synthesized sound and my vocals on garageband. It features a guitar solo played on a my Fender Stratocaster which is great fun and i look forward to playing it live 

The song took some time to complete. drafting and redrafting through various lyrics, solos and melodies before finally i realised it was time to finally just release it.  

I hope you enjoy it. Thanks for listening.  please subscribe if you have a taste for what you hear, and i will be back soon.  Peace

This song is available on streaming Spotify, iTunes etc from Nov 18th

'So bright, you could see her shining in the night sky'

A review:As a music journalist, I must say that the lyrics you have presented are captivating and paint a vivid picture of the subject matter. The song seems to be about a woman who is the center of attention at a party, and the speaker is captivated by her presence. The use of astronomical metaphors such as "supernova" and "galaxy" add a layer of depth to the lyrics, giving the impression that this woman is larger than life and has a powerful impact on those around her.

The repetition of the phrase "So bright, you could see her shining in the night" serves as a memorable hook and reinforces the idea that this woman is a shining star. The use of the word "ferociously" to describe her burning presence is particularly effective, conveying the intensity of her impact on the speaker and others at the party.

The imagery of the speaker being caught up in the "gravity" of her galaxy is both romantic and cosmic, adding a layer of mystique to the lyrics. The repeated use of the phrase "I treat her so respectfully" suggests that the speaker is both drawn to and respectful of this powerful woman, perhaps hinting at a deeper emotional connection.

Overall, these lyrics show a great deal of poetic flair and use creative metaphors to convey a sense of awe and admiration for a captivating individual. With a strong melody and well-crafted instrumentation, this song could be a standout track in any artist's repertoire.

Lyrics:: 
Friday night, half past ten
another round of shots for her and all her friends 
She's burning bright and then theres no coincidence
She’s the star of every show until the party ends 

Centre of attention 
everybody’s in a spin
I've been caught up in the gravity 
of this galaxy she's in
i try to think of what to say
i don’t know where i should begin
i say hello to her so cautiously  
She's burning so ferociously 

So bright
you could see her shining in the night sky
deep inside her eyes are beams of starlight
Theres so much more i want to discover
but She’s a supernova

You will feel the heat if she ever lets you close
the temperature will rise
it will grow and she knows
i got to be on my toes
to keep her next to me
i treat her so respectfully
this flame of such ferocity
i treat her so respectfully

i got to make an observation 
the force is pulling me in
I've been caught up in the gravity 
of this galaxy she's in
i try to think of what to say
i don’t know where to begin
i say hello to her so cautiously  
She's burning so ferociously

So bright you could see her shining in the night
deep inside her eyes i see the starlight
She's a supernova

shining brighter than the stars
Doesn't matter where you are
she's burning it up

So bright
you could see her shining in the night

So bright
you could see her shining in the night
deep inside her eyes are beams of starlight
Theres so more i want to discover
but She's a supernova
  
shining brighter than the stars 
doesn't matter where you are

Supernova

A song featuring soprano saxophone, classical guitar and a big vocal

Won't Change My Heart

I randomly found an old track I was working on and I guess I abandend and forgot all about.  
Anyway, the Garageband file doesnt exists anymore so there's no chance of me working any more on this, so I thought I'd release it for anyone who cares to hear it..
It has a fantastic guitar solo, and even a key change towards the end,  I guess I was also following current trends with some of the ad libs - you'll hear what I'm on about
Anyway, hope you enjoy, let me know
