Give it Up (Badass) - with REKHA and Jeff Roberts

“Just a Boy” is a haunting indie-blues track by Three Photons, crafted in response to a tragic local event. With raw vocals, analog warmth, and soulful instrumentation—including Jeff Roberts on bass and Andrew Borderick on B3 organ—the song captures the ache of senseless loss and the fragility of youth. Mixed with precision and emotional care, it stands as a sonic memorial: intimate, reflective, and deeply human.

A big thank you to Jeff Roberts and Andrew Borderick for playing on....."Just a Boy".

This sad and devastating local story has been on my mind for a long time.... I'm reminded about this tragedy nearly everyday as I run along the Mississippi Blvd and see the memorial.

Verse 1
You move like a summer breeze
There's whistling in the trees
You're always on my mind
You were just a boy
Don't leave me alone

Refrain 1 - instrumental and hum

Verse 2
You know I hate Christmas Eve
It brings me to my knees 
You're always on my mind
You were just a boy
You were just a boy

Refrain
How they took your life
What a senseless crime

Verse 3
You said you were going for a ride
But I didn't say goodbye
You're always on my mind
Don't leave me alone!

Refrain
Well they took your life 
by surprise
Such a senseless crime
Such a senseless crime

Verse4
And After all this time
I can't heal
and baby sometimes I can't feel....

Refrain
Yeah they took your life
Yeah they took your life
Such a senseless crime
Such a senseless crime
How they took your life
How they took your life
Such a senseless crime
Such a senseless crime
How they took your life

outro
You move like the summer breeze
and I hear you whistling in the trees....

So Strange

Some of the best VST synths I ever tried are made by Herr Full Bucket!
https://www.fullbucket.de/music/vst.html

I'm a proud owner of a real Korg PS-3200 but I actually prefer the VST version from FullBucket. 
All his Korg clones sounds better than the real ones and I'm old enough to have tried most of them in real life...

On this little song, I have only used full bucket synths, one choir sample and text to speech from https://voicegenerator.io/

L’ombre de mon vaisseau, plane sur les dunes,
Je tourne lentement, autour de la lune,
En apesanteur, mes cheveux dressés,
Dessinent les flammes, de la liberté

Si je perds le contrôle, que les moteurs s’affolent,
Je tombe comme une pierre, en route vers la Terre.

Je fais un parachute, de ma toile cirée,
J’ouvre le hublot, je le vois gonfler,
Je remonte en flêche, vers la voie lactée
Je salue une comète, qui me voit passer,

Mais les écrans s’affolent, je reperds le contrôle,
Je tombe comme une pierre, en route vers la Terre.

C’est la panique à bord, quelque soient mes efforts,
Je vais finir, par me réveiller,
Dans un lit trop petit, entourée de harpies,
Qui ne pensent qu’à me droguer,

Je ferme les yeux, je retourne sur la lune,
Je sens les roses, qui embaument les dunes,
Paraît que ce cachet, va tout arranger,
Je ferme les yeux, je retourne sur la lune,

Autour de la lune

Autour De La Lune

Lyrics, music, and photo by Linda Straub

I barely ever saw him,
yet he was always in my life.
He spoke to me words of comfort 
a man so gentle and so wise. 

No more a man of flesh and sinew,
set free from life's human form, 
his voice speaks loudly to me,
live, let go, no longer mourn or conform. 

Rise up, look around, be profound.
Chase down your dreams
and don't stop until you astound.


Step out of your own shadow
and you will find me waiting there
in every beam of sunlight, 
in every breath of air. 

Open up your mind to the possible, 
be not afraid to do and dare.
Step out of your own shadow
and you will find me waiting there. 

Rise up, look around, be profound.
Chase down your dreams 
and don't stop until you astound. 

Chase down your dreams 
and don't stop until you astound.

I am very proud to present a new version of my song "lost friend" produced by Jeff Roberts. My first transatlantic collaboration :-)
A huge thank you to Jeff who liked my song and suggested me to make his version, a little more rock. 
What an honor and what a pleasure :-) :-) :-)
I advise you to have a look around here to listen to Jeff's beautiful songs  https://soundcloud.com/jeff_roberts

There is so much talent and variety here, and most of the people are pretty cool too. I love being part of this community. Listening to your music and being heard in return is enough.

Still reading? OK I'm gonna muse a bit. It's hard to fully convey how much this forum has meant to me. There are people I've never met that feel very much like old friends -- and in a very real way they are.
If I follow someone I make every effort to listen to and support their efforts. It's certainly not a transactional relationship but I do tend to limit my follows to people who engage in mutual listening and engagement. If you listen and leave a comment I always try to listen to *your* music when responding! If you follow at random without any feedback I hope you get something out of that too... ; )
