My sincere apologies if you commented on this track before.  I had to delete the entire post because it was not showing up.  For some mysterious reason a few people could see it but in general it was invisible.  Who can understand these mysteries?  So I have given up and am reposting.  

Thank you David Dunham for your unfailing help in mastering my tracks.

Lyrics
Where's everybody going to in such a constant rush
it seems to me like were constantly in a constant state of flux
and everything we want is everything we see
and this constant clamour for me me me
Where's everybody going to in such a rush

This keeping up with the Joneses well it's killing us
This out with the old and with the new
Replaceable, disposable including me and you
These ideal homes and designer clothes
and this constant clamour for me me me
Where's everybody going to in such a rush

Life goes so fast
Living everyday as though it's going to be the last
Well I feel I'm losing pace being left behind in this human race x 2....

Dear friends, here is a humble folky folk song, in my own language,
maybe too much harmonica - I would love to be able to play the flute - it sounds so beautiful! This is also a mild protest song.
These flowers are called Morning Glory - Snårvinda in Swedish. They have different colours, and these pink-white are very rare (Growing in Simrishamn).

Lyrics in English

The Most Beautiful Flowers

The most beautiful flowers grow here in our meadows
they shine brightly even in the rain
and the soul it feels good just to see
what nature shows there must be someone who fixes everything for us

Who planted these flowers here in our meadows
it must be someone with power
over everything that is there worms and earth
and who can decide when our sun will come out and shine on everything we have

Please, you can arrange for everyone here to be very nice
You can probably do that You speak up
We trust You now is the time
indeed, it has gone too far now evil people have gained too much power


Lyrics in Swedish

De Vackraste Blommorna

De vackraste blommorna växa här på våra ängar
de lyser klart - också vid regn
och själen den mår bra - av att bara se
vad naturen visar upp - det måste vara någon som fixar allt för oss

Vem är det som planterat dessa blommor här på våra ängar
det måste va - nån som har makt
över allt som finns där - maskar och jord
och som kan bestämma när - vår sol kommer fram och lyser på allt vi har

Snälla Du, Du kan väl ordna så att alla här blir jättesnälla
det kan Du nog - Du säger ifrån
Vi litar på Dig - nu är det dags
det har faktiskt gått för långt - nu har elaka människor fått alltför mycket makt

Baby It's Cold Out There.wav

The city lights they shimmer bright
We dance on rooftops through the night
No fear no fuss we own the sky
Our feet they fly we're never shy

Got rhythm in the neon glow
We twist and turn and let it flow
The bass it thumps it steals the show
This groove a vibe we all should know

Feel the heartbeat of the street
With every step our spirits meet
We're drumming up a symphony
In this urban jubilee

The moon it hangs above the bay
Its silver beams they guide our way
We sing a song with every sway
Our voices echo night and day

Feel the heartbeat of the street
With every step our spirits meet
We're drumming up a symphony
In this urban jubilee

Trumpets blare and trombones slide
Percussion deep we won't subside
A fusion sound we can't deny
Freestyle rhythms make us high

Evaporate (Demo)

No words needed — just that feeling of being lifted, confident, and free. This one’s about finding a new world with someone who makes you feel like you’re floating above it all.

HIGHER GROUND

AIN’T NO WORDS NEED TO BE SAID
I FEEL FINE WITH YOU, I FEEL FINE WITH YOU
NO NEED TO GO TO CHURCH TO PRAY
I BELIEVE IN YOU, I BELIEVE IN YOU

THERE’S A VOICE IN MY HEAD
SOMETHING I CAN’T EXPLAIN
AND IT FILLS ME  WITH CONFIDENCE WHEREVER I GO

THERE’S A VOICE IN MY HEAD
SOMETHING I CAN’T EXPLAIN
AND IT FILLS ME WITH CONFIDENCE WHEREVER I GO

YOU MAKE ME FEEL HIGHER
MY FEET DON’T TOUCH THE GROUND
ONE WAY OR ANOTHER
I HOPE IT NEVER ENDS

OPENING A NEW WORLD
HERE THE BIRDS SING BIGGER SYMPHONIES
OPENING A NEW WORLD 
WHERE EVERYTHING IS LIGHT

I DON’T BELONG TO ANYWHERE
COS I BELONG TO YOU, I BELONG TO YOU …..
I DON’T BELONG TO ANYWHERE
COS I BELONG TO YOU  I BELONG TO YOU ….

Higher Ground V1 (Demo)

Hello,
Here are some songs wot I wrote. Mostly recorded at home as a sort of one man band set up.
Sometimes other musicians play on the tunes too.

A little stroll on the mild side 🎧

"Dave was awarded 4th best tambourinist in his cul de sac whilst still only 37, he still plays tambourine today whilst his peers have abandoned tambourine. Think that speaks volumes to Dave's commitment to his music". (Big Hits Magazine}



I have a tendency to remove songs to tweak them and reload. Sometimes they never return 🤔

Headphones recommended.
