Some songs contrast so beautifully that they need to heard together, back-to-back.  This is how I first heard them together via my Soundcloud's random rotation. Here some of my favorites so far. I've tried to pair them so the sequence goes 1&2, 3&4, etc

Great Pairings

i clean up the world
you fall in beside me
i’ll cover the Wuhan lab
you shore up the army

i follow the news
the news is disaster
i’ve given up on my booze
to wash the world faster

every morning
every hour

stop at the top of mountains
soul care repair

it happens this way
to each generation
the entropy cabaret
and reason’s cessation

every morning
wake up to the truth
every hour
plenty more to do

stop at the top of mountains
rest there fresh air 

every morning
wake up to the truth
every hour plenty more to do

stop at the top of mountains 
pure prayer up there

Love soulful emotional ballad. Lyrics by DjSas. Song by Joy

-Just Friends

—-Verse 1]
I see your face
 and my heart aches.
Standing so close but we're worlds apart.
Every laugh we share 
cuts deep
 beneath the skin.
feelings that 
no one will win.

[Verse 2]
Your hand in mine feels like a spark. 
A love we can't call ours
 drives me 
insane.
Each glance a secret that we bury in the sand,
Pretending we're just friends 
when our feelings 
are much more. 

[Chorus]
Just friends 
is a lie we tell
ourselves.
 Our hearts
 rebel,
Falling 
for the one
 you can't have.


[Verse 3]
I watch you smile but it tears me to shreds.
Every word spoken dances round the things we don’t
say to each other. 
The way we joke it’s as if we’re free,
But behind this 
 is a love that’s 
breaking me.

[Bridge]
The love is true but you say
 no.
I hold back my tears,
 though they threaten to overflow. 
In your shadow I’m lost 
 feelings 
we can’t let win.

[Chorus]
Just friends
 is a mask we wear.
A fragile oath that hides despair.
Living,
 but never whole.
Your touch
 I’ll never hold.

Just Friends ( seems like it )

l'art pour l'art - Chiaroscur

it's about a man ghosting. when someone is coming on strong!! 

I took you to London
Where we used to be
The city lights shone so bright 
And that big old moon peering down 
That's the way we should stay 

Make a pact departure 
Float on out with the tide 
As the waves crashed over my face 
I Swear for you I could have died 

And the angels cry 
Even the Angels cry 
Go to sleep my baby
Go to sleep my little child
Wake when the storm is over
When the tides no longer wild
And the angels cry 
Even the Angels cry 

Arms of an evil ocean 
Pull me out to sea 
Love with no devotion 
Is there any life left in me. 

And the angels cry 
Even the Angels cry 
Go to sleep my baby
Go to sleep my little child 
Wake when the storm is over
When the tides no longer wild. 
And the Angels cry
Even the Angels cry 

instrumental 

Washed up on a distant shore 
A tred on empty shell 
Why is love so pitiful 
Like a living lonesome hell 

And the Angels cry
Even the Angels cry 
Go to sleep my baby 
Go to sleep my little child 
Wake when the storm is over 
When the tides no longer wild 
And the angels cry 
Even the Angels cry

a little musical gift for my dear friend Francesco

la favola della buonanotte

Just a little impromptu-ish take on "Anything You Can Do" from Irving Berlin's 1946 musical "Annie Get Your Gun".
I was joined by mezzo-soprano Bethan Morris, and the piano track was provided by Helen Roberts.

We were making a cake, and found that we are altogether much more fond of fondant than of guns...and honestly who would sign up for a mass shooting if they could join a cake tasting instead..

We hope you'll enjoy our inanities.

Nous avions rendez-vous
à "La Petite Madeleine"
où nous étions chez nous.
Un café comme on l'aime.
C'est jour anniversaire
de la première fois,
mais tu es à la guerre
et tu ne viendras pas.

J'ai commandé un verre
comm' si tu étais là ;
peut être, je l'espère,
le vin te remplacera.
Tu veux m’écrire une lettre,
je suis venue pour ça,
s'il l’vin tourne la tête,
je crois qu'il m'aidera.

Pour essuyer le fard
qui coule de mes yeux,
je me sers du buvard,
mais je n'y vois pas mieux.
Tu n’as pas écrit une
seule ligne, tu vois,
vu que le porte-plume
se refuse à mes doigts.

J'ai bien peur que la page
ne reste toute blanche
autant que ton visage
qui pleure sur tes manches.
Mais il faut qu'elle s'en aille
te dire tout là-bas
que j'ai le cœur en bataille,
prêt à mourir pour toi. 

Ici, dans notre café
où j'ai vidé mon verre,

l'alcool fait son effet,
elle est finie la guerre
et ma lettre s'envole
pleine de mots d'amour
te dire ma joie folle.
Je rêve à ton retour.
 
Nous avions rendez-vous
à "La Petite Madeleine"
où je suis un peu soûle ;
Dépêche-toi, je t'aime !
Et fais-moi oublier
mes frissons et ma peine,
car je n'ai pas pensé
à mettre une petite laine.
Il faut que tu reviennes.

At Café 

Our appointment was
at "La Petite Madeleine"
where we felt right at home.
A café just the way we like it.
It's the anniversary
of the first time,
but you're at war
and won't be coming.

I've ordered a glass
as if you were here;
maybe, I hope,
the wine will replace you.
You want to write me a letter,
that's why I came,
if l'vin turns his head,
I think he'll help me.

To wipe the blush
from my eyes,
I use the blotting paper,
but I can't see any better.
You haven't written a single
line, you see,
since the
penholder refuses to accept my fingers.

I'm afraid the page
will remain as blank
as your face
weeping on your sleeves.
But it's got to go
tell you all the way over there
that my heart's in knots,
ready to die for you.

Here, in our café
where I've emptied my glass,

the alcohol takes its toll,
the war's over
and my letter flies off
full of words of love
telling you of my mad joy.
I dream of your return.
 
We had an appointment
at "La Petite Madeleine"
where I'm a little drunk;
Hurry up, I love you!
And make me forget
my shivers and my pain,
because I didn't think
of putting on a little wool.
You've got to come back.

The only bomb that should be acceptable to mankind.

"Sex Bomb" is a song by Welsh singer Tom Jones (you probably waited for this ;)). Performed in collaboration with German DJ and producer Mousse T., it was released in November 1999 on Jones' 34th album "Reload".

Guitar by my son Gideon.
We hope you'll enjoy the show.

Soul Piano Love 
Lyrics by Sas. Duet with Joy

From my playlist-I Adore You 

-Perfect Love 

[Verse]
Is there a love that stands so tall
A partner who breaks down every wall
A bond so strong it never fades
A perfect tune our hearts have played

[Verse 2]
Is there a touch that feels so right
A hand to hold through every fight
A voice that calms the stormy seas
A perfect love that sets us free

[Chorus]
I’m searching for a love
A Perfect Love
A love with endless nights and golden days
A heart,  my home
My guiding star

[Verse 3]
Is there a smile that lights the sky
A look that whispers never lie
A love that burns but never scars
A perfect flame that never fades

[Bridge]
 a story with no end
Each chapter new
No need for words
The truth is clear
Perfect love is what I’m searching for.

[Chorus]
I’m searching for love
A love so perfect
Of endless nights and golden days
My  hearts home
My guiding star
Perfect love

Is that you?

Lyrics song by Sas 
From my Playlist-Gospel 

-Confessions 

[Verse]
Saw my local priest today
He asked me how can I help you son
I said father I’ve lost my way
I need to confess what I have done

[Chorus]
Oh cleanse my heart make it whole
Wash away the weight on my soul
Forgive me Lord for I’ve been blind
Help me leave my shame behind

[Verse 2]
I’ve lied and I’ve stumbled hard
Walked the streets with a broken heart
Took paths that led me far from grace
Now I’m here to seek Your embrace

[Chorus]
Oh cleanse my heart make it whole
Wash away the weight on my soul
Forgive me Lord for I’ve been blind
Help me leave my shame behind

[Bridge]
Kneeling down with trembling hands
Father prayed as I made my stand
He said son you’re loved you’re free
God’s mercy flows like the endless sea

[Chorus]
Oh cleanse my heart make it whole
Wash away the weight on my soul
Forgive me Lord for I’ve been blind
Help me leave my shame behind

Confessions

Not exactly fine dining music. Rather, a bit of easygoing and no fuss music with my good friend David Dunham. Good with a cup of coffee and maybe a piece of apple pie.   Thank you David.  It's always a pleasure to make music together.  Check out David's soothing guitar here ---> @david-dunhamuser589535203

Drown

Dear friends - I can't help it - I adore the female voice!

When Girls are Singing

When I listen to the girls when they are singing their song
my heart will melt and my soul feel so good since their voices are so great
all time - there must be something - that attract
the guys that hear - the womans voice which are singing for their soul 

Every day when I open the radio to hear
lovely songs that touch my dear soul and I often choose the songs
performed - by ladies who sing with bright
and crystal sound that makes my ears rejoice with joy

The choir in the church is something that You should hear
it is a sound as from angels above and when trumpets are playing
with the choir - something is fullfilled - in Your day
You can bring Your kids - back to Your home with satisfaction in Your heart

Lyrics in Swedish

När flickor sjunger

När jag lyssnar på flickorna då de sjunger sin sång
smälter mitt hjärta och min själ mår så bra eftersom deras röster är så fantastiska
hela tiden - det måste finnas något - som attraherar
killarna som hör - kvinnornas röst som sjunger för deras själ

Varje dag när jag öppnar radion för att höra
vackra sånger som berör min kära själ och jag väljer ofta sånger
framförda - av damer som sjunger med ett klart
och kristallklart ljud som får mina öron att jubla av glädje

Kören i kyrkan är något du borde höra
det är ett ljud som från änglar ovan och när trumpeter spelar
med kören - något uppfylls - i din dag
Du kan ta med dina barn - tillbaka till ditt hem med tillfredsställelse i ditt hjärta

When Girls are Singing - 2025-07-20 11.15

Return, Feel, to live...

Best described as eclectic, my style is a soothing mix mirroring my personality: mostly mellow with the occasional outburst. Although I have a background in classical piano I have always loved to create and improvise.  Since early childhood I have been trying to duplicate on the piano what I hear in my head.  Now I see how formal studies and improvisation fit together perfectly. I hope to always keep growing and learning, reflecting the beauty of Christ in all my endeavors. Thank you for your kind listening.
