I'M HEARING A SOUND AND IT'S LOUD 
AND IT'S CALLING AND SHOUTING TO ME
I'M HEARING THE WORDS OF A SONG ALL ALONG
THEY'RE ALL RINGING YOUR NAME

MAYBE THERE'S SOMETHING
I'M HEARING SOMETHING STRANGE OUTSIDE
MAYBE IT'S JUST ME AND MYSELF

THE LIVING THE LAUGHING THE TALKING
THE CRYING IT COME TO ME
I'M HEARING THE WORD'S THAT YOU LEFT
NOW YOUR GONE AND IT'S CLEAR TO SEE

I'LL TELL YOU SOMETHING
I'M FEELING SOMETHING STRANGE OUTSIDE
I BELIVE IT'S JUST ME AND MYSELF
(break)
I'LL TELL YOU SOMETHING
I'M FEELING SOMETHING

SO DEEP IN THE NIGHT AND IT'S BRIGHT
AND IT'S LIKE IT'S SHINING ON ME
I'VE BEEN RIDING THE TIDE IT'S SO HIGH
LIKE A KITE I WISH YOU COULD SEE

I SEEING SOMETHING
I'M FEELING SOMETHING STRANGE OUTSIDE
IT'S ONLY SHINING ON ME AND MYSELF

ME AND I

ME MYSELF I

ME AND MYSELF

ME & MYSELF (see info for video link)

Taken from my album Tales of generation x
People may ask themselves over time of why carry a burden and stay alone? and to not find love
I carry a lot of love and desire ,we are on this planet for a very short time and people need to find the right person and the right kind of love and friendship otherwise we might waste our energy and freedoms in the wrong direction if you find a spark try and keep it lit

Pas glop, 
J' t' aimais bien mon petit humain 
Pas glop,
 On dirait bien que c' est la fin 
Papillons éphémères dans un ciel d'été lointain

Pas Glop - Guit Solo

Another composition recorded before the war. I hope one day I will return to my home studio. Any support from you is much appreciated on these extremely hard times for our country, our family. 
I could have recorded much new music for the last 9 months... unless russians came to our yard to "save" us with their tanks, missiles, bombs and war planes at 4 a.m. on Feb 24th. And yes, they saved us from our house, from our normal life, from our dreams and plans. They saved my elderly parents from their home and peaceful life in retiring, saved my daughter from happy childhood, from school, from her friends and vacation by the sea. We'll never forget and never forgive it! I'm sure that russia will get what it deserves - each rocket they launch on Ukraine will turn to another 10 years of disaster for their cowardly people.
 Special thanks to Houman (@houmans) for mastering the track! Please check out his wonderful soundtracks.

Quartet For 2 Pianos ( after String Quartet 2 )

This is about how life is constantly presenting challenges. We must learn from each incident/experience and use that learning to try and be more resilient and be able to move forward. 
I wrote it on my 3/4 size Hofner classical guitar. It’s first song! I used open G tuning after being encouraged to try it by Mark Spruce (Original Spruce - great songs- give them a listen!). Thanks Mark! 
Hope you enjoy it. Best with headphones! 
Take care 
James 

Lyrics 
My Uncertain Steps 

As a boy, I was scared of the sea
With my family, on a beach in Normandy, 
a French boy told me the ghosts of drowned sailors grab your legs and dragged you down
I wouldn’t go in! 
Too naive and trusting! 

As a teen, I was all over the place! 
Always confused, just didn’t know which way to face
Too many temptations, suggestions and thrills, distracting and wild
Couldn’t think straight 
Couldn’t concentrate! 

It was always their demands and directions 
Had to meet their dreams and expectations 

My uncertain steps
No confidence 
(Trying to find my own way)
My uncertain steps 
At my own pace
(My way) 

My wreckage of a life, with this chaotic love
Constant demands, you can never do enough 
Mix in the bullies, the twisters and those egos too
It pulls you apart
Breaks your heart 

I’m seasoned, I now know this path
One crisis avoided, another starts 

My uncertain steps
More experienced 
(Trying to find my own way)
My uncertain steps
At my own pace 
(My way) 

And now I expect to see the worst
In everyone and everything I know
Just know how it is, but feel I can somehow 
see it through

(outro) 
I’ve got friends (for my uncertain steps)
I’ve lived and learnt (for my uncertain steps)
I’ve got you (for my uncertain steps) 
I’ll get through this (my uncertain steps)

My Uncertain Steps

I strained my wrist playing guitar while practicing a new piece I hope to post in a month or two, so in the meantime I decided to freshen up a short piece I had on SC from a few years ago. It’s a simple melody, a musical meditation, towards peace; the dove of peace carries this message, through many cultures and religions. Peace is needed now, more than ever. Hope you may spend 2 minutes with me to meditate.
PS. Wasn't able to master this with clarity, so headphones/earphones best.

Here is a demo with added vocals recorded today 4 Sep 2024 by myself, of my song LOST IN THE LIGHT.
 I used to sing and play the piano many ages ago jazz standards and Evergreens at my gigs and events, Hey! I even had some concerts!

     However, this is after 40 minutes of rehearsing only, and I recorded sitting with my laptop on my lap with my Airpods :) 

Here's a challenge! Because I know I like a good challenge! 😉

I have a list of people who want to sing this song,

So here's your chance to send me your demo. You can forward it here on SoundCloud. (You can find the track of the piano from this recording here on SoundCloud)

And then we will see what's going to happen.

Thanks 

Enjoy!  😊


( I've done some mastering on the vocal track, I am currently a rookie but I am a fast learner But for the 4th, or 5th time in my life doing that, it doesn't sound the worst I guess. 😁😁😁

Lost In The Light Piano + Voice Demo.

I woke this mornin with the Devil on my trail
Got a pocket full of nothin and a heart about to fail
Storm clouds gather where my shadow ought to be
Two steps behind me is the trouble meant for me
I hear it breathin in the gravel at my heel
Bad luck follows closer than a secret you cant conceal

Oh Lord hear me cryin though my words fall low
I drag this broken spirit where the cold winds blow

Mama told me once boy you were born in a crooked line
Every road you walk turns bitter with the brine
River keeps risin though the sky stays dry
And the crow on the fence dont never blink an eye
I keep on runnin but the world wont let me through
Two steps behind me is the sorrow I always knew

Oh Lord hear me cryin though my words fall low
I drag this broken spirit where the cold winds blow
If fortune ever loved me she left no sign
Cause the bad luck follows me like a dog on a rusty chain of mine

I tried workin in the fields till my hands went stone
Tried prayin for an answer but the Lord stayed gone
I dropped a coin in the river hopin fate might bend
But the ripple came back whisperin boy there aint no end
I see footprints in the dirt that aint quite mine
Two steps behind me is the shadow I cant define

If fortune ever loved me she left no sign
Cause the bad luck follows me like a dog on a rusty chain of mine

If the train comes rollin I might climb aboard
Let the engine drown the curses Ive stored
But I know deep down on that rattlin line
Trouble rides the caboose waitin for my sign

Oh Lord hear me cryin though my words fall low
I drag this broken spirit where the cold winds blow
If fortune ever loved me she left no sign
Cause the bad luck follows me like a dog on a rusty chain of mine

And when I lay down in the earth so still
Two steps behind me trouble waits there still

Oh Lord hear me cryin
