This is great, its got that Santana guitar sound. And a killer Latin band and singer.

Not sure if this is a van halen cover cos i'm not that familiar with van halen or an original but either way it's cool

Typical EC song. Love the santana vibe type guitars and the latin flavour.. Great vocals as ever.

CARACOL

Luna ven,
La noche estalló,
Su presencia,
Último rastro,
Sin fin de ilusiones,
Viento, ven afuera, circula.

Caracol, tiempo era caracol,
Abrí y de pronto encontré a otro,
Presente escondido en el instante, sumergido.

Poco a poco luz ardiente atardece esa forma de espiral,
Que trae impresión que en otro tiempo se hizo olvido,
Blanco tierno, amarillo desde atrás.

Instante ciego, días que sabemos que no volverán,
El fugaz estar del mar, un sonido que atraviesa el silencio,
Viento frío, aire fresco, circula.

Sensación de haber estado, en otro sitio oscurece,
El ciclo intenso, va lentamente, suspirando,
Que mantiene todo intacto en el espacio que está.

Cuerpo seco, adaptado a una concha, olvido,
Verde intenso que se queda, aparece duda interna,
Calma antigua que se escapa en el momento del ya.

(Lee los 4 bloques anteriores en orden inverso y vuelve aquí).

Momento que será, el sol va al final,
Comienza los giros y se va quemándolo todo a su paso, quemándolo.

Luna ven,
La noche estalló,
Su presencia,
Último rastro,
Sin fin de ilusiones,
Viento, ven afuera, circula.

Caracol, tiempo era caracol,
Abrí y de pronto encontré a otro,
Presente escondido en el instante, sumergido.

La ligera sensación, por un instante
una ráfaga de pájaros corto aire fresco,
fue como un pequeño ardor por dentro,
la mañana respiraba y a ratos de vez en cuando
un sonido murmuraba por sobre mi cabeza.

Nuez.

Chispa y sangra que vendrá, por un momento
polvo seco fue y cubrió sin despertar azul intenso,
fue como un clamor sentir por dentro,
que se acerca madrugada, somnolienta y serena,
que se asoma y que se muestra por sobre mi cabeza.

Nuez.

Intercity Blues

This a riff-driven punk number on the theme of dominance and control. It is either dark, or darkly dumb, depending on your point of view. I played around with gender pronouns to spread the joy!

I can license lyrics if people are keen. Full lyrics below:

Grip

[verse 1]

She’s got a grip on my heart [repeat x3]
Like a monkey wrench

Monk, key, wrench, twist

She sits on my chest [repeat x3]
To get leverage

He’s got a hold on me [repeat x3]
Like a harpoon

Hook, me, up, pull

He’s got his hooks in me [repeat x3]
Like a slaughter house

We hold each other tight [repeat x3]
Like a tourniquet 

Bleed, me, dry, stop.

We share everything [repeat x3]
Like a parasite 

They really turn me on [repeat x3]
In the electric chair

Strap, me, in, switch

They put me up on the altar [repeat x3]
For the sacrifice

You really make me move [repeat x3]
Like a voodoo doll

Pin, me, down, cut.

You know me inside out [repeat x3]
Like an autopsy

[coda]

Well you play the tune 
And I will dance for you
Until I’m all worn through

Yes you play the tune
And I will dance for you
Until I’m all worn through

C U @ NITE

You left me there.
Out, in nowhere.
Once, I told myself
That you wouldn't dare.
Sure I was a jerk.
I was aware.
I thought  stupidly
That I would be spared

Please stay honey
Do not harm me
I'll stop beating you 
Each damned evening
You will love me 
Like it used to be
I'll stop trashing you
Just don't be mean

I stare at the stars
Calm is the night
My wounded belly
Bleeds so much baby
Where are you now?
I need you so.
Why did you have 
To stab me in Reno?

Please stay honey
Do not harm me
I'll stop beating you 
Each damned evening
You will love me 
Like it used to be
I'll stop trashing you
Just don't be mean

Stay

If you're feeling sad because of your ex-girlfriend or your ex-boyfriend or if you're with your heart broken, listen to this song. I know what is this. I know you're suffering. We're all with pain. But God and Music heal everyone! If you're happy, I ask, please share it with all of us. Enjoy!

Song: In the Core, there is no Love

Piano Intro:


Verse:

Just one more.
Just one more number.
In the core, 
There is no love.

You've been platonic,
Playing a confuse blues 
with diminished 
pentatonics...

Break:

Tension in my heart,
The things you say
To me are hardcore. 
In the core, there is no love.

Verse:

I'm an old guy, three decades lived.
Never was loved. 
You, young one,
Likes the gym guys. I'd rather be at home.

But, one thing I know,
The life it's saying hello,
To everyone to whom
Don't feel loved.

Break:

Tension in my heart,
The things you say
To me are hardcore. 
In the core, there is no love.

Chorus:

Like the rain in the Summer,
Like leaves in the Autumn,
Like the Sun in the Winter,
You, girl, will pass.

As time goes by,
The space is unoccupied,
My bowels are sad and full,
I don't anymore like you.

Verse:

Just one number,
One more,
You've despised my feelings,
Although you've said you admire me.

Who cares? It's not your fault.
It's never someone's fault.
We can feel in our cores,
There are no doubts.

Bridge:

Tension in my heart,
The things you say
To me are hardcore. 
In the core, there is no love.

Chorus:

Like the rain in the Summer,
Like leaves in the Autumn,
Like the Sun in the Winter,
You, girl, will pass.

As time goes by,
The space is unoccupied,
My bowels are sad and full,
I don't anymore like you.

Outro:

Like some trash, I've been treated,
The reserve player. The last one.
See how the way you look to me
Makes me say and thinks?
It's a farewell, girl.
No more you gonna see me.
You were my World, 
But now the Real World is saying it's needs me.

Ending:

In the otherside of the city,
No regrets, just no problems anymore.
My wings I lay.
I've Learned To Pray.

For you.

Intro:

Verse 1:

I've been breathing, About me and you.
I lose my breath,
When I recall everything in slow motion.
My inspiration, 
It calls for action...
Why don't you warm me with your arms?

Verse 2:

I can remember the very first time we kissed each other...
In slow motion, I remember the honeyed taste of your mouth.

Chorus:

We could be in the Space, but I'm sure,
If we be together,
You're my breathing.
And I'm your respiration.

Instrumental Break:

Interlude:

How about we think what can we do with our inspiration?
There is better thing than kissing in slow motion?

Chorus:

We could be in the Space, but I'm sure,
If we be together,
You're my breathing.
And I'm your respiration.

Chorus:

We could be in the Space, but I'm sure,
If we be together,
You're my breathing.
And I'm your respiration.

Outro:

Lets live our love in slow motion,
So each second with you
Be more and lasts
Everlasting love.

Slow Motion (Romantic Pop Song) By Uli

Reality Sinks prod. Seven

Originally a part of another song I was working on that evolved into a separate piece. Unlike my usual improvisation-based approach of writing guitar solos, this time I approached the soloing in a way more conscious manner.

Slow Dancing But The Room Is Already Burned To Ashes

I am a wreck inside and I know you struggle too, if I can't help me how can I try saving you?

Saving You

Esiste un suono che nessuno ha mai sentito, un suono che precede la storia della musica, un suono che nasconde il segreto dell'armonia universale. È il suono perduto, il suono originale, quello che sfugge alle regole e alle convenzioni. È il suono che parla direttamente all'anima di chi lo ascolta e di chi lo produce. È il suono che mette in contatto l'uomo con l'universo.

Steve Cohen’s first album was released back in 1997 to critical acclaim from Billboard Magazine, Philadelphia City Paper & The American Society of Musician’s Composer’s & Publishers. The Philadelphia native has since released 10 albums and multiple singles featuring his original songs recorded under his birth name and his alter ego Elton Costello. The music embraces various genres including Singer/Songwriter on “Silent Too Long”: & Rock on “Crazy” where you’ll find a full band with a horn section mastered by Grammy Award winner Glenn Barratt.

A simple Americana influenced Piano/Voice demo written around the time of the 911 attacks named “American Troubadour” found itself embraced by Pandora Radio and played 1,000’s of times (a respectable feat for an album recorded with one mic on a piano).

Steven Sean Cohen released “Summer Jams” in 2013 with a music video by Victor Mignatti for the song “Thinkin’ Bout Leavin’. The album was followed up in 2014 with 4 singles including “Springsteen” a tribute to the artist, “Bradford Country” focusing on the environmental hazards of fracking and “Colorado” in memory of those who continue die to to the mass shooting epidemic.
