Crossroads

My mum always played the piano in her slippers, her mother did not want her to damaged the instrument.  She even took her slippers to the Guildhall School of Music and Drama exam, she thought everyone played the piano in slippers. So I recorded a favourite track of hers, in one take, which I was very happy with, though I did shed a tear as I put my slippers on.

The music for "Blueberry Hill" was composed by Vincent Rose with lyrics written by Larry Stock and Al Lewis. The song was turned down by another publisher until being bought and published in 1940 by Chappell & Company. The song was recorded over ten times that year.

Blueberry Hill (Vincent Rose, Larry Stock & Al Lewis)

A storm of notes from the hillside's crest 
Bagpipes wail in their Sunday best 
Fiddles scream like a sparrow in flight 
Drums like thunder shaking the night 

Whisky and wind Oh they dance in my veins Heartbeats pounding like the highland rains 
Sing it loud Sing it wild Let the music begin 
Life feels alive with whisky and wind 

Boots on the floorboards Clapping in time 
Echoes of stories in every rhyme 
Fields of heather Skies so wide 
Bagpipes calling They won't be denied

Whisky and wind .mp3

THE DARK SIDE OF THE EARTH

Music : Janne Hennie & Little Man
Lyrics & vocals : Janne Hennie

Every time I came to visit
You danced around my feet
Made happy noises, barked a song
Lots of cuddles, lots of love

You are my friend, like a brother to me
We could talk, have long good walks
Always faithful, with trust in us
So much comfort in my mothers dog

But now you're tired, you need to rest
I know you did you're very best
I will carry you on our last walk
My little brother, my mothers dog

If I was sad, you licked my hand
could always sense and understand
Whenever something was bad or wrong
You were there, your presence so strong

Take a rest now, my brother, my friend
I'm pretty sure I'll meet you again
Then we'll take a long good walk
Lots of cuddles, lots of love

But now you're tired, you need to rest
I know you did you're very best
I will carry you on our last walk
My little brother, my mothers dog

Ground Zero 
by David Husted 

When you find your answers can you tell me how? 
I’m still searching and I haven’t found 
It’s time to take a stand, say what you believe 
the un-named heroes gather on the streets 

You would speak your mind, but you don’t know how 
you would fan the fever but you don’t know how to climb 
crooked ladders toward a better day 
past the rising seas and that bitter sweet way home 

Ground Zero (never give up or give in) 
it’s time to say what you believe 
gather around your un-named heroes ; (my heroes) 
arm in arm we’ll take the streets 

When you find your answers can you tell me how 
I’m still searching and I haven’t found a way through. 
I’ll take the road beside you 
It’s time to take a stand; say what we believe 
with the un-named heroes gathering on the streets 
We’ll find our, Our Ground Zero 

Ground Zero (never give up or give in) 
it’s time to say what you believe 
gather around your un-named heroes ; (my heroes) 
arm in arm we’ll take the streets 

and when you survive the days 
and when you survive the nights 
thats when you’ll find ground zero 
thats when you’ll know ground zero 

Ground Zero (never give up or give in) 
it’s time to say what you believe 
gather around your un-named heroes ; (my heroes) 
arm in arm we’ll take the streets

How is it Going;   This song, "Ground Zero",  is the final song on my new album "Perfect Storm" released in Apr 18.  This whole package was created in a little over one years time and I enjoyed every step of the process along the way.   This particular song was arranged after I listened very carefully to music I currently like already out there in the world.  As I listened, I methodically picked apart the structure of some of my favorites (deep listening).   I then, very carefully, focused on some of the sound tones and effects I liked in certain songs selected.  I  attempted to emulate and construct some of the sounds via synth design techniques and a little bit of sampling.  I could go into a lot more detail but I will not bore you.  Again, the most important thing is the "song" itself; melodies, lyrics  and rhythms.   Enjoy the music friends and thank you for listening.

Thank You

Dave
