RON SNYDER - The Flu Season Blues (Original 1984 Radio Version)

"Peace Sign" is an uplifting and melodic journey that captures the essence of finding hope and beauty in the world around us. Set at a lively tempo, this song tells the story of a radiant figure standing atop a hill, embracing the sunset with open arms and a peaceful heart. As the stars come out, she dances freely under the night sky, her laughter and spirit illuminating the darkness.

She is a symbol of peace, a beacon of love and harmony, full of inner strength and resilience. Even in moments of sadness, her tears transform into stars, reigniting the peace sign in her eyes and reminding us all of the power of dreams and hope.

Let the peace sign shine brightly in your heart.

VICTORY!
On our way, on our way, through valleys and shadows, 
But in the new day Jesus is our light. No darkness, no night. 
With new hope, believe in Jesus Christ and know, eternal life will never die, no, no. 
For the love God gives me, let it be, oh, let it be. 
With the love of God that we share over death and despair,
From this moment in time, with joy we will go on and on. 
For a brighter day, on our way, to Heaven’s glory, 
Christ’s victory. Victory! Victory!!

Victory - Acoustic/Piano Performance, Nessun Dorma

For me, Rabbit on the Rooftop is more than just a song; it’s a chapter of life, an invitation to lift your gaze from routine and venture beyond imposed limits. This song is inspired by all the dreams and risks I’ve taken in life, by the freedom I feel when I’m in Italy, or when I lose myself in the chords of a jazz concert.

I’ve learned that life isn’t just about achieving success or stability; it’s about those moments when you listen to your heart and follow those wild impulses. The rabbit in the story is a part of me – that brave part that keeps dreaming and trying, even when it knows it might not reach the desired destination. This song is for everyone who still has a dream to chase, even if life’s paths have taken them elsewhere.

The jazz and folk in this song come from my love for freedom and spontaneity, the same things that draw me to live music and Italian culture every time. I’ve been playing piano since I was little, and I love to write down my thoughts, and, in a way, Rabbit on the Rooftop gathers everything I’ve lived: the unfulfilled love for Alessandro, the nights in Italy, and the smiles of the customers in my restaurant.

In the end, this song is an invitation: Hop little rabbit, don’t you ever stop. Get up and run after your dreams, even if everyone else tells you you’re crazy. Every step is a chapter in your story. I hope that, through this song, I can remind you that life is more than just a road... it’s an adventure.

Hey, everyone! Thanks for tuning in to “Care Less.” This track is really close to my heart, so I wanted to give you a peek behind the curtain.

“Care Less” is all about letting go of the weight and expectations people try to put on us. I wanted it to feel like a moment of clarity—like that split-second realization when you decide you don’t have to carry around other people’s judgments or doubts. It's empowering, but also raw; it’s about the freedom that comes with saying, “You know what? I just don’t care anymore.”

I worked my azz of to make the  sound just right. The instrumental has a mix of deep bass and sharp, crisp percussion that gives it a little edge. There’s this steady groove to it, almost hypnotic, and that’s intentional. I wanted it to feel like a mantra, something you can get lost in. The beat kind of mirrors that feeling of rising above, lifting you up and away from the noise.

Vocally, I kept things soulful but didn’t hold back on the grit—I wanted that honest, real sound, like I'm talking directly to you. There’s a bit of reverb and layering to give it that larger-than-life feel, like you're in that mental space with me, breaking free from whatever’s been holding you down.

This is the principal soundcloud channel for original one-man music by gd&themultitracks.  Mainly instrumental, the music was home-recorded in stroud, england using hardware synths & instruments and Audacity community software for editing and mixing the individual multitracks.  I've had great enjoyment in making (& listening to!) the music, but any plays or feedback would be much appreciated. 
The music spans a wide range of sounds & genre.  I've put a selection of tracks into playlists which cover much of the music:  rock, melodic rock, soft guitar, ambient, electronica, soundtrack, jazz & blues..
enjoy your music ... just play on!
