Dear Reader, 

What is existence? Who made time? Is there a governing force? These are questions that cannot be answered with any certainty. Humankind has spent thousands of years creating stories to answer these questions and there are as many answers as there are cultures. 

When something good happens, there is a tendency for some to thank a deity. But what about when something bad happens? Some will say that this event was the deity's doing too, and that it is all part of some grand plan. 

I prefer not to twist myself into a pretzel attempting to apply logic to what are leaps of faith. And so, I follow science as it attempts to get closer to truth. In this song, I apply—in a whimsical way—a religious trope (Say Amen) to what is my secular belief. I encourage all to follow their own beliefs, whether sacred or secular. I cast no aspersions no matter what your beliefs, so long as those beliefs do not impinge upon the beliefs and freedoms of others. 

My special thanks to Audric Jankauskas for joining me on this song. His immense talent as a guitarist may be known to those of you who have heard him play on several of my other songs, but you should also know of his great musicianship, arranging and compositional skills. Audric added those beautiful angular lines toward the end of the song, which I think are so cool. 

This has been a great summer for me. I've had the opportunity to collaborate with at least 12 other musicians—talented players and singers from all around the globe. The autumn approaches, but the music will continue—I still have much more music that I am eager to release. 

Thank you for your continued support.

All My Best,

Say Amen

searching for something small but important.

searching

The schoolyard

The boys played marbles, the girls jumped rope 
It was springtime, early may
Mrs Milgram was very convinced
She told us of our sins
And then we dropped the stone

The schoolyard was just a hole
The teachers left us alone
Finally through 
In the end no one knew,
but the blister and the poking

The schoolyard

Autumn
My favourite season, where the climate is mild although there are sudden storms of rain and wind followed by calm and gentle breezes, where the landscapes are filled with colour and beauty and where fruits such as walnuts, chestnuts, hazelnuts, mushrooms are harvested…
I have tried to represent with music the different states that we find in this season and in my opinion, I think I have succeeded.

Otoño
Mi estación preferida, donde el clima es suave aunque se desatan repentinas tempestades de lluvia y viento seguidas de calma y suaves brisas, donde los paisajes se llenan de color y hermosura y se recolectan frutos como nueces, castañas, avellanas, setas…
He intentado representar con música los diferentes estados que encontramos en esta estación y en mi opinión, creo que lo he conseguido.

Lyrics:

I will never forget the very first time we met
You were my little sweetheart
Thought it would last forever

Does anything last forever?
Maybe the answer is no
Love will come, love will go
Time will tell, cause we don't know
What appears in the future
Love can pop up everywhere
So I will love you today
That is all I can say to you..

Na na na....

So let us enjoy today
With lots of love both ways
From early morning to the night
With tomorrow out of sight

Does anything last forever?
Maybe the answer is no
Love will come, love will go
Time will tell, cause we don't know
What appears in the future
Love can pop up everywhere
So I will love you today
That is all I can say to you...

Na na na...

I will never forget the very first time we met
You were my little sweetheart
Thought this would last forever

All we have is right now
Can't promise anything more
Right now I am truly yours
Thats all I can say for sure

Does anything last forever?
Maybe the answer is no
Love will come, love will go
Time will tell, cause we don't know
What appears in the future
Love can pop up everywhere
So I will love you today
That is all I can say to you...

Na na na...

Does anything last forever?
Maybe the answer is no
Love will come, love will go
Time will tell, cause we don't know
What appears in the future
Love can pop up everywhere
So I will love you today
That is all I can say to you....

Today

Breaking Out of Here.

Mental Butterfly (noxpox+Dely↯anja)

■概要(Overview)
窓を開けたら秋の風が入ってきた。見上げるとあの頃と似た空。
遠くから少年野球の声がする。
・・そんな感じの曲です。
---------
リバーブ多めな感じになりました。へへ・・。
ピアノは無謀にもアドリブにチャレンジだ！(少しだけ)
う～ん、もっと練習しなさい！(と自分に言う)

I opened the window and the autumn wind blew in. Looking up, the sky was similar to the old days.
I could hear the sounds of little league baseball from afar.
This song has that kind of feel.
---------
It has a lot of reverb now. Hehe...
I'm going to recklessly try improvising on the piano!(Just a little)
Hmm, practice more! (I tell myself)

■歌詞
「ひつじ雲」

窓を開けて風が通り抜けていく
グラウンドでは子供たちの声がした
太陽はそこにいるだけ

あの頃にもしも戻れるのならば
懐かしい人たちに会いたい
聞けなかったこと　飲み込んだ言葉
伝えられる気がするから

迷いの中　手探りの中
過ぎてゆくだけの日々かもしれない
だけど　いつも　この世界は
輝いていたんだね

ひつじ雲が浮かんでいる
青空が少し見える
遠くまで来てしまったみたい
あの頃と似てる空
二度と戻れない日々
私の思い出

「あの頃」と思う時がくるなんて
手にするばかりの「今」ではなく
こぼれ落ちたもの　旅立った人も
永遠だと思っていた

未来のため　歩き続けて
たどり着く頃は　何が残るのか
こぼれ　欠けて　この世界は
輝いているんだね

ひつじ雲が浮かんでいる
青空が少し見える
遠くまで来てしまったみたい
あの頃と似てる空
かけがえのない今日を
抱きしめていたい

■Lyrics (Google translation)
"Sheep cloud"

When I opened the window, the wind blew through
I heard children's voices on the ground.
the sun is just there

If I could go back to those days
I want to meet nostalgic people
Things I couldn't ask, words I swallowed
I feel like I can convey them

In doubt, in groping
Maybe the days just pass by
But this world is always
It was shining

A sheep cloud is floating
I can see a little bit of the blue sky
It seems like I've come a long way
A sky similar to those days
Days that can never return
my memories

I never thought there would come a time when I would think of ``that time''
Things that have fallen, people who have departed
I thought it was forever

What will remain after continuing to walk toward the future?
This world continues to shine even as it continues to fall and chip away.

A sheep cloud is floating
I can see a little bit of the blue sky
It seems like I've come a long way
A sky similar to those days
I want to embrace this irreplaceable day

sheep_cloud(ひつじ雲)

A song created with ai (concept by me), written for a friend that gone too soon from these damn bikes. Always wear helmets and the best is not to ride them at all, because they took already many lives and young souls very unfairly, close friends and acquaintances. Careful y'all out there, 4 wheels are always safer with normal speed of course, because this can be truly dangerous too if you overestimate your limits and strengths.

remix of a track from Mr Jazz: https://soundcloud.com/mr-j-a-z-z/lazy-wave .... I had to pitch down this track 0,5% semitone; 78.13 BPM is the speed; so I could add jazz brushes and my (EWI) trumpet improvisation ...
