“This is about appreciating the beauty of our world - a Pop/Rock anthem as a reminder to live in each moment and to enjoy life with those you love” 

“WORLD IS A REASON”

Fireworks against the moonlight
A bonfire at midnight
Sing with friends to our favourite songs 
Dancing like a wolf again and I don’t care
I’m ecstatic here
Letting the stars join us there and you said “you better kiss me here” 

The world is a reason to live
The world is a reason 

Does it get better than this? 
How did I forget this bliss? 
Open my eyes this world has a perfect face 
So much time to shape  
I’m in the moment, all in right now here with you
Where else would I want to be?
What else would I ever want to do?

WORLD IS A REASON

Wrote this in 2002 and 2023.  The arrangement is the original 2002 arrangement, care of my Proteus 2000 synthesiser, and an ATARI ST version of Cubase - my oh my, with a couple of extra sounds, care of my set up today.  I couldn't remix the original arrangement, that backing is fixed, however, it seemed okay enough to work with.  The original lyrics weren't particularly good, something I came to remedy 21 years later, so the vocal is me in 2023 (verses) and 2024 (chorus).  One of those I forgot to finish last year, on account of a cold that made it very difficult for me to sing the chorus.  This song has the same meaning as it originally did, same title, however sticks the landing much better this time around, in so far as the lyrics are concerned.

Lyrics

You might tell me you might tell me
You don’t want me to go
But I feel it in my heart my heart 
I’m already alone
You might think, might think, might think
I’m all tied down
But you’ve driven me to drink
Don’t wanna stick around

Oh to love someone, to love someone, to love someone like you
To love someone, oh to love someone, to love someone like you...

It’s like I somehow went insane 
Blood somehow draining from my brain

Save me!

I can’t believe what I’ve just seen 
There’s a river flowing out of me 
I bleed, I need to breathe
I can’t believe this mess I see 
there’s a shadow and it’s taken me 
I need a way for me to go, breathe!

You might think, might think, might think 
You give me air
It’s true you rush straight through my lungs, 
But cut me everywhere
Seems you believe, seems you believe
You’ve got me good
Just because you reached my peak
And found a little wood

Oh to love someone, to love someone, to love someone like you
To love someone, oh to love someone, to love someone like you...

It’s like I somehow missed a trick
Got somehow snared inside this ditch!

Save me!

I can’t believe what I’ve just seen 
There’s a river flowing out of me 
I bleed, I need to breathe
I can’t believe this mess I see 
there’s a shadow and it’s taken me 
I need a way for me to go, breathe!

noxpox - going Mo Town

I've been writing songs for ages and ages, because it's something I enjoy doing, and that's about it. 

I've added dates to titles, however, these aren't always dates recorded, mostly just dates written because the original offerings, back then, had little to be desired with consideration to production values and all that stuff!  For the older tracks some tracks have the old backing with a modern vocal (often with a lyric rewrite), the original vocal with a new backing (when I could work with the original vocal, but not the original backing), the original song newly recorded in all areas, and less often the original vocal and backing, but with a few additions, "No" is one such example.  Otherwise, most of it is newer stuff, post 2018, and is as is, when written and recorded.    

I've had to re-record some things on account of my abilities to record demos and all that being very limited once upon a time.  

In the early days I only had a Farfisa F1 workstation thing (it's amazing what I managed to do on that), later an Atari ST, with Cubase 2 probably, a Proteus 2000, and Fostek 8 track recorder thing, and now I've got Native Instruments 14, and Cubase 12, in what amounts to an astonishingly good set up compared to my earlier resources, for about the same money as that older rubbish was back then. 

I still use the microphone I've had since I was 18, though did just recently upgrade that as well, however still pick up and use the old one, as it's still good - a Sure SM58 with a dent in it! My upgraded mic is a Sure SM7B, which is great, and I see it all the time on TV and podcasts, so must have made a good choice! 

My musical chops are focused on the piano, my main instrument, and the ukulele, which I play a lot as well.  Not doing a lot of piano-orientated songs at the moment, but I do sometimes, and mostly try to get the best out of my Native Instruments stuff.  I'm barely scratching the surface with all of the NI stuff I've got.
