Life, drives you to the ground
Kicks you when you’re down
Wants to wear your crown

Love, comes as no surprise
Right before your eyes
With truth instead of lies

Stop explaining
Days are waning
Then you realize
That it’s your time to fly

We have travelled through this life 
Through the tears and strife
To the other side

Dreams, elude us when we sleep
And rivers run so deep
The secrets they will keep

Lives are taken
Plans, forsaken
Then you realize
That it’s your time to fly..

It may be we’ll never understand
Building castles in the sea and sand…

Love, comes as a surprise
Right between the eyes

For the Love of Life

The Wunderkammer musical project was born from the idea of ​​Salvatore Montieri, in continuous research and musical experimentation.
The desire to face different musical and instrumental dimensions, combining the classical discipline with the inspiration of jazz and rock / pop music, and the search for new sound and percussive effects creates a mixture of unique, original and magical sounds!

Wunderkammer, "chamber of wonders", is an expression belonging to the German language, used to indicate particular environments in which, from the sixteenth century to the eighteenth century, collectors used to keep collections of extraordinary objects for their intrinsic and external characteristics.
That of the Wunderkammer was a typical phenomenon of the sixteenth century, which however has its roots in the Middle Ages. It then developed throughout the seventeenth century, feeding on the Baroque grandeur and continued until the eighteenth century favored by the typical love for scientific curiosities, typical of the Enlightenment.

"Music is not, like other arts, the image of ideas, but the image of the will itself, whose ideas are objectivity. Therefore the effect of music is so much more powerful and insinuating than that of the other arts: because they give us just the reflection, while that expresses the essence. " 
A. Schopenhauer

There is an order in all life. Birth, aging, sickness and death. Spring, Summer, Autumn and winter. You see it in everything that grows. The order never changes. Winter can not come after Spring. Why would the life of a human being follow a different law of life?

I don't need your love

You know when you have too many broken hearts and it's hard to to be vulnerable and courageous again to let yourself fall in love again - looking for the right person that never comes and you wonder why - hmmmm - this song is about that dilemma! 

I wanted to write a classical song - I wanted it about love but recalled my experience in my early years where I was afraid to commit, to fall and trust again.

Thanks AI for helping me land this track to this point reasonably quickly!  The song was butchered at the end so I needed to do some edit and restructure on the layers by splitting the stems and extending the song. A great demo for now for I do say so myself - it moved me. 

There is a hint of an extension of the love theme from my previous music video Once Upon A View I released on Youtube with an 1899 Cinderella Silent Film I was able to use! "The shoe must fit" :) 

Serve Love Lyrics

Upon a view at sunrise 
What lies ahead for you? 
Can there be love this time 
Waiting just for you?

I see again hesitation in those eyes 
Heels dug into grass brown stained 
What must lie on the other side
To defer again to another day?

Courage could not come soon enough 
But will it come at all?
You half-heartedly signed up for love 
With no stomach for the fall

Fall for love not because you are weak 
Fall for love because you are strong 
Fall for love not for the favours 
Fall for love because you serve love

Love has a lot to give 
But the shoe must also fit 
Love will refuse to stay 
It will indeed pull away
From the foolish takers 
The broken deniers 
Who sadly turn lovers 
Into runners for cover 

Courage could not come soon enough 
It won’t have to come soon
If you fool heartedly signed up 
To play lovers like fools

Fall for love not because you are weak 
Fall for love because you are strong 
Fall for love not for the favours 
Fall for love because we serve love

(Ah ahhhhhhhhhhh)
Serve, serve for love
(Ah ahhhhhhhhhhh)
Fall to serve love 

Upon a view to shine (shine) 
What be your kind? (the kind)
For the torch bearer (does know)
The light of truth fires up the passion 
oooooooh, ahhhhhhh

I see contemplation in your eyes 
Beneath stirring feet, you rise 
Committed to loving ways 
For much better days (better days)
The story goes, you wised up 
Bold tales of breaking down walls
That you full heartedly signed up 
To take the lead and light the way

(Ah ahhhhhhhhhhh)
Serve, serve for love
(Ah ahhhhhhhhhhh)
Fall to serve love 

(c) George Helou

This represents my story about how I was in a war zone at 5 years of age - a bomb exploded across an intersection from our apartment where I was standing on the balcony. I witnessed a young girl pass away from it - I was too young if there is any age to confront such horror. 

Many experiences starting with this one made me run from my dreams. I share how I managed to outgrow my fear. Many people relate to this story because we are all on that mission to overcome our fears, traumas and conditioning. 

Here I Am Lyrics 

Where to start? 
Maybe right from the start 
Burned in my soul 
An explosion mark 
A tail of smoke
Big boom, hurry run!
Running, running
Where are you mum?

Shockwaves blew 5 years 
Of innocence away 
Saw evil killing 
Boys and girls in its way
Realisation that 
Faceless monsters exist
Raise that guard 
For the stones and sticks

Upon me and around me
So much to do 
Stay in your shell kid
They’re in a bad mood
Park your dreams
Wish your wishes away
Trust once in yourself 
And they’ll make you pay

Where am I going? 
Who should I be?
Can I exist 
Beyond here?
This fear’s too heavy
For my knees
Can’t keep running
From who to be

Was too busy to find me
Too busy to find me
But here I am, here I am 
Got lost in the grinding
It sadly defined me 
But here I am, here I am
I feel so alive, 
This me I can’t hide
Here I am, here I am
Here I ammmmmmm!  

What a nice quiet kid
They’re so eager to say
Does what he’s told
He must be okay
Loyal to the one goal
To simply assimilate 
Camouflaged like vanilla
What a fate 

Must please them 
So they’ll accept you 
Be invisible 
So they can’t reject you
Put your hands down
Kill the attention
Before you fail
Avoid their detection

What’s this place 
That pushes me down?
Where does it come from? 
Why does it come?
Who are these creatures
Waiting in shadows?
Time to call their bluff
Hey! Come take me, awayyyyyy! 

Woooooaaaaahhhhhhhh!
Come take me, awayyyyy! 
Woooooaaaaahhhhhhhh!

Where did they go? 
I surrendered to their power
Are they that gutless?
Or was I the conductor?
Of their power 
To keep me from myself 
To keep me being 
Anything but myself

Where was I going? 
What to be?
Time to exist 
Beyond here
The fear was heavy
For my knees
Gotta stop running
From who to be

Was too busy to find me
Too busy to find me
But here I am, here I am 
Got lost in the grinding
It sadly defined me 
But here I am, here I am
I feel so alive, 
This me I can’t hide
Here I am, here I am
Here I ammmmmmm!

Where next?
This is a brand-new start
Creating from my soul 
Leave legacy marks
Precious trails 
Off memories and fun
Flowing, flowing
From heart to mind

Where next?
This is a brand-new start
Creating from my soul 
Leave legacy marks
Precious trails 
Off memories and fun
Flowing, flowing
This is my time

Here I Am

The rapid evolution of AI and all tech is clashing with the definition of what it means to be an artist, to create and to deliver meaningful value to ourselves and each other. 

This song calls out for a humbling to embrace the opportunities, temper the judgement and to allow new dynamics of expression and allow the adventure of where it lands, how it continues to evolve for a new balance of a sustainable value exchange. I see creativity and artistry to become a part of each human's way to express their purpose and emotion. 

The tech is far from perfect and may never truly get there, but it does deliver a platform that is truly spectacular and only keeps getting better. This song was frustrating because I could not get production with AI to avoid over-production and what I consider unnecessary layers of sounds. At least this is a kick ass demo for a future version cleaner and more refined. 

Joy Waves Lyrics 

You want the best for me 
So, I flow for you to see
In my proudest moments 
You’re neither felt or keen  
To express in the present 
How you experienced me 
Left hanging for timely attention
Left joy, joined the confusion 

I look closely and I see
A person caught in fear 
Incapable of creating 
Fearing the exposing
Embarrassing mistakes 
Costly trembling takes 
Evidence for the fail 
Reasons to quickly bail 

All good for some 
All bad for others 
But who knows?
Who knows?
Follow your heart 
Let passion drive you 
And let truth do  
The heavy lifting 

Flow for your purpose 
Stay true to your service 
Keep finding ways
To ride the joy waves  

Just ride the joy waves 
Ride (ride them high)
Just ride the joy waves 
Ride them high (Real high) 

Between black ’n white worlds 
Be petty or be understanding 
Driven by the desire to serve  
How do I balance the dividing?
Exit its fear while holding on 
To the pained eyes that roll 
Grasping for significance 
With perfection insistence 

All good for some 
All bad for others 
But who knows?
Who knows?
Follow your heart 
Let passion drive you 
And let truth do  
The heavy lifting 

Flow for your purpose 
Stay true to your service 
Keep finding ways
To ride the joy waves  

Just ride the joy waves 
Ride (ride them high)
Just ride the joy waves 
Ride them high (Real high)

I look closely and I see
A person caught in fear 
Incapable of a new race 
Competing for space 
Troubled by a new face
Costly hesitation takes 
Complacency centre stage
In a cloak ’n dagger game

All good for some 
All bad for others 
But who knows?
Who knows?
Follow your heart 
Let passion drive you 
And let truth do  
The heavy lifting 

Flow for your purpose 
Stay true to your service 
Keep finding ways
To ride the joy waves  

Just ride the joy waves 
Ride (ride them high)
Just ride the joy waves 
Ride them high (Real high)

Those flexing creative prestige 
Frowning at unconventional ways 
That surf the waves of innovation 
Creating light speed exhilaration 
Worried to lose what they don’t have 
Yet right here, right now, it’s 
All at our fingertips 

All good for some 
All bad for others 
But who knows?
Who knows?
Follow your heart 
Let passion drive you 
And let truth do  
The heavy lifting 

Flow for your purpose 
Stay true to your service 
Keep finding ways
To ride the joy waves  

Just ride the joy waves 
Ride (ride them high)
Just ride the joy waves 
Ride them high (Real high)  

The fans motivate  
The haters motivate  
The true creators 
Respect the balance  

Just ride the joy waves 
Ride (ride them high)
Just ride the joy waves 
Ride them high (Real high)

Just ride the joy waves 
Ride (ride them high)
Just ride the joy waves 
Ride them high (Real high)

Soul Bell Lyrics   

To reach me is not easy
I’m busy being tough
Too busy trying too hard
To be what? Never enough 

Who’s the authority of my approval? 
Who’s ordained with perfect vision? 
Who’s threatening my removal
On this hoop jumping mission?

In a battle with this crazy world 
Is a cruel fight with who exactly?
Must deal with my judgement hurl
That inner deep unsatisfactory

I’m not allowed to look there
I can never have the time
Flaws and failure if I dare
Is the only thing I’ll find.

Yet I exist, I persist,
So confusing, so deluding
Dividing myself from divine right
Busy excusing and exuding

Lies, lies, lies about 
Self, self, self
Cry, cry, deny all
Help, help, help
Lies, lies, lies about
Self, self self
Can’t deny, it’s time
To ring my soul bell!  

Time for my fervour
What must be true?
Can’t look any further
Than my creation in view

What God-Universe is in me?
How truly loving must it be?
Would it choose my absence?
Or am I an eternal substance?
 
I am taking a risk on the latter
Just be me, I already matter
No longer trapped in roles
with self defeating goals

The lies, lies, lies now end
Truth does finally set me free
To view all with the omni lens
Precious artists and artworks in progress

Soul Bell

KISSIN' ASS FOR CHRISTMAS

We wish for all our young to find their strength and voice through the challenges of their teens. 

Your Voice Lyrics   

Crying eyes, hard shut 
You still found my thumb 
And squeezed it firmly 
The start of our story
That moment you were born 
A miracle to our world
That day I had sworn
To protect you, baby girl

Yet, I noticed very early 
You were a cautious one 
I fished, throwing burley 
As you climbed rocks for fun
I said and did nothing 
Knowing you’d be fine 
Standing between gull and fish 
You protected our dinner dish 

We thought we protected you 
You did conquer cliffs 
But there was more to do 
Dealing with sociopaths 
Should have seen them coming
Conditioned for the shunning
You were their bait 
They maimed your faith 

A fate we had to change 
Unfitting for a heart so pure 
We were too slow to chase 
Ideas lodged to endure
We watched the pain set in 
Taking over your life force 
Our tools unable to get in
Trampled on a dark course  

Too precious for lies 
To be deceived like this 
Too resilient and wise 
To be kept down like this
Finding your substance 
Without losing your kindness
A new song to sing 
Ending the lonely silence  

You found your voice 
Strong and sweet 
You found your voice
To cool the heat  
You found your voice 
To make your presence felt 
A voice that now leads  
Hearts to melt 

You had to realise 
All on your own 
That breaking free 
Is not done alone 
Though the choice 
Was to be made by you  
Making a difference 
Starts with you 

Too precious for lies 
To be deceived like this 
Too resilient and wise 
To be kept down like this
Finding your substance 
Without losing your kindness
A new song to sing 
Ending the lonely silence  

You found your voice 
Strong and sweet 
You found your voice
To cool the heat  
You found your voice 
To make your presence felt 
A voice that leads  
Hearts to melt 

What a platform
You now enjoy 
In great form
Finding your joy
Taking your ups
With your downs 
Building self-love 
So much found 

Too precious for lies 
To be deceived like this 
Too resilient and wise 
To be kept down like this
Finding your substance 
Without losing your kindness
A new song to sing 
Ending the lonely silence  

You found your voice 
Strong and sweet 
You found your voice
To cool the heat  
You found your voice 
To make your presence felt 
A voice that leads  
Hearts to melt

Sweet, sweet voice 
Strong ‘n carefree 
Sweet, sweet voice 
Knowing how to be  
Sweet, sweet voice 
Standing tall 
Sweet, sweet voice 
Handling it all 
In great company
