Hawker’s Request 

Sing from the chamber to the grave
Thus did the dead man say
A sound of melody I crave
Upon my burial-day
Bring forth some tuneful instruments
And let your voices rise
My spirit listened, as it went
To the music of the skies 

Chorus
Let’s sing a song for a passing 
One last song to lead us on
A Cornish song for our loved ones 
And to guide our spirits home

Sing sweetly while you travel on
And keep the funeral slow
The angels sing where I am gone
And you should sing below
Sing from the threshold to the porch
Until you hear the bell
And sing you loudly in the church
The Psalms I love so well

Chorus 

Then bear me gently to my grave
And as you pass along
Remember twas my wish to have
A pleasant funeral song
So earth to earth, and dust to dust
And though my flesh decay
My soul shall sing among the just
Until the Judgment-day Until the Judgment-day 

Chorus x2

Knock Knock

Knock-Knock (Original M!X)

The name Miranda comes from the Latin word for "Wonderful" and was first used as a given name by William Shakespeare in The Tempest.

It's also the name of a dearly beloved cat.

This song is about inner fight of feelings between love and desire. It will take you through different scenes: meditation, passion, happiness, frustration, adoration, excitation & relaxation.

I think it will be one of my top tracks ever, but after too many attempts for a definitive mix, it must go out as it is or I’ll go crazy(er). Please give me some feedback.

Maybe a nice trial: https://soundcloud.com/esemanolain-ruizzo/estoy-confundido-piano-version

Estoy confundido (Eres tan bonita...)  /  I am confused (You’re so beautiful...)

de no volverme a encontrar.  /  of not finding me again.

Se aleja mi corazón de golpe,  /  My heart leaves at one stroke,

No quiero que digas eso,  /  Don’t want you to say so,
no quiero que olvides mi voz.  /  don’t want you to forget my voice.

Si aparecen regueros de lágrimas,  /  If streams of tears appear,
No llores de pena (bis)  /  don’t you cry of sorrow. (bis)
Si bajan mojándome las mejillas,  /  If they go down wetting my cheeks,
No llores de pena (bis)  /  don’t you cry of sorrow. (bis)

Y sólo recuerdo que te deseo.  /  and I only remember that I desire you.

y lloro porque al mismo tiempo  /  and I cry because at the same time
quiero poseerte.  /  I want to possess you.

Estoy confundido (Eres tan bonita...)

Cage City

As a child growing up in Liverpool during the eighties, I witnessed first hand the struggles people had to endure because of the government’s neglect of our city. The government got away with neglecting its children, whilst Yosser and no doubt many like him had theirs taken away.

Yosser Hughes, the fictional character from Alan Bleasdale's incredible television series 'Boys from the Blackstuff', depicted a single father unable to find work whilst trying to look after his three children. 

The perception of Yosser back then, and probably still now is that he was a crazy, weak, and dangerous person. The reality though, is that Yosser’s behaviour was fuelled by many factors, not just povery, lack of work, and a broken relationship that we witness on screen.

Mental health awareness was zilch back then and most men today like Yosser find it impossible to talk about their struggles in life. This is largely due to the stigma of being perceived as weak. The only person he felt that he could open up to was a priest behind a veiled confessional box, who seemingly offered no help, support or guidance.

There will have been many traumatic events in Yossers life, all as a result of a cycle of poverty and lack of support and understanding that was generationally passed down. 

Yosser struggled on with his failing mental health, but clearly his love remained for his children. He kept looking for work, feeding his children, doing the best he could with what little he had. He like many was unfortunately doomed to succeed, and yet if he had been given help and support he could have brought his children up and been there for them. His wife, like Yosser just another casualty of the continuing cycle of victims, and sadly their children next.

Anyone struggling with their mental health should break free from the societal  stigma and speak to someone. You’re only human and can’t carry that weight alone. You are not alone and It’s ok to be vulnerable, it’s what makes us human. Just please ask someone for help!

Additionally, If you know someone who may be struggling with things, ask them if they want to talk, lend your ear, normalize their worries or concerns, and encourage them to seek help and support.

Original lyrics (not too complicated 😜) by kavvka:

Gdzie serca splecione w skowronkach?

Jasieńku, Jasieńku czemuś ty zły na mnie?
Jam Ci to życie chciała ułożyć jak w niebie.
Dlaczegoś, dlaczegoś mnie zostawił dla niej?
Jam Ci to chciała jeno wyjść za ciebie.

Oj dana,
oj dana,
oj dana

Powtórzenie

English translation:

Where our hearts bounded in skylarks melody?

Oh Johnny, oh Johnny why are you mad at me?
I wanted this life maked into heaven.
Why, oh why you left me for her
I only wanted to be your wife 

Oh dah-nah
oh dah-nah
oh dah-nah

Repeat.

Jasieńku, dlaczego (Why, Johnny? udio.com vocals)

This is a re-mix of the original we did years ago . Jeff Roberts who created it from my basic acoustic idea wanted to remix and get it out on Spotify under the name of The Bird Thieves . 
Jeff was the first artist I ever collaborated with on Soundcloud and I will always be grateful to him for giving me the opportunity and believing in my raw ideas. 
Since then I’ve have worked with many great talented musicians from Soundcloud . The Conscience Of Kings project with Noobly simply transformed me and my love for being creative all over again. 
Thank you to everyone I have worked with and everyone I have engaged with on this platform.
Enjoy this tune all over again and a massive thanks to a Soundcloud legend that is Jeff Roberts.

Our Carpe Diem 


Candy to my eyes 
Sweet poison in my heart 
We were electric together 
But safer miles apart
In wild times we were living
And you always made me laugh
When you Dancing on the tables
And falling over in the dark

If your gonna judge us
You better be perfect 
And if you’ve got something say
It better be worth it
we lived for the moment x2
I’m our very own Carpe Diem 


Caught a train to London 
In hindsight shouldn’t of went
We stayed out 48 hours
And drank next months rent
Beautiful minds equal beautiful times
it was never gonna last
But what an absolute blast

Chorus with a times 4 

Outro

Ohhhh Darcey 
With lived for the moment x4
