Hi guys, a lot of people wrote me why there are no more new songs from me and why I don't respond to the comments anymore. The reason is that I was burnt out, my head was burnt out. I wrote and produced 70 songs in 3 years and collaborated with wonderful artists, so I took a creative break for a few months to write and produce new ideas and songs. I want to thank all the people who wrote me such wonderful comments and listened to my music and followed me. Thanks thanks thanks and again a thousand thanks. and this is my new song ( Dancing Like A Fool ) I wish you a lot of fun with the song. I hope you like it.  And as always. ++++Turn it up loud++++

Dancing Like A Fool

The Union crosses the Rappahannock river and clears Fredericksburg. The Confederates retreat to the surrounding hills behind a 4 foot high stone wall. Union frontal attacks, while valiant, are futile with casualties 2:1 ending in total Union withdrawal. History would later lay blame on the Union high command for the debacle. 
Lyrics - have multiple meanings: Crossing the river, subsequent fears and sorrow, poor Immigrant and runaway slave Negro soldiers compelled by their conscience to fight for a better free world; give their all often dying slowly and painfully while left alone on the battlefield - now the Lyrics:

Rivers of tears
Unending fears Lord
These souls
Longing to be free
Their all
Is all they have to give oh Lord
Their blood
Buying liberty

Rivers of Tears (Battle of Fredericksburg - with Vocals - Description inside link)

lorsqu'elle m'est apparue
elle avait déjà tes yeux
ta force inouïe
et ton air obstiné

elle avait aussi des mains 
qu'elle avait héritées
de chasseurs revenus
du froid des temps glacés 

elle m'a dit:

voyageur du temps, voyageur imprudent 
qui s'aventure dans la forêt sombre
écoute les griffes, entends les dents
de prédateurs tapis dans l'ombre

apprenez à vous défendre  (x2)
apprenez à vous soigner
car vous êtes le départ
et vous êtes l'arrivée

vous n'êtes pas que vous
vous êtes d'où vous venez
vous l'êtes et vous l'étiez
sur des millions d'années 

voyageur du temps, voyageur imprudent 
qui s'aventure dans la forêt sombre
écoute les griffes, entends les dents
de prédateurs tapis dans l'ombre

Je ne peux parler de toi (x2)
sans parler de ton père
parler de ton père
c'est parler de sa mère
pour parler de sa mère
faut parler de son père
et parler de son père 
fait revenir à toi

Forêt sombre

Mysterious creatures of the forest.

Across The City
