Bad, Oh Yea

Bad Oh Yea

I've had the plan to write a lullaby for many years. After missing the timing for my own kids the idea has been a "that would be nice to do" thought ...until recently when our backyard deck came into the story.

For those that don't know, our deck overlooks our community and has just enough elevation so that we see over many of the rooftops and trees and the surrounding hills make a wonderful evening setting. There have been many evenings watching the sunset with Dee and the family. 

Not only do we have an amazing view, we also have one of the most incredible auditory experiences as well. From where we are at we can hear much of the neighborhood sounds, and more often than not, the sounds of the Norman Creek kids playing.  The sounds of kids playing together outside is something that was so foreign after so many years in California, it's been wonderful to experience it from the deck.

So what does all this have to do with a lullaby? 

For years I've known that the lullaby would be based upon the love, joy, and safety that Dee showed our kids while growing up. I think those things are the cornerstones for kids growing up strong and confident. The sounds of the Norman Creek kids, and the sheer joy of sitting and watching amazing sunsets with Dee, reignited the thoughts of kids being put to bed by their mothers. With the memories of Dee with our kids, and the thoughts of the Norman Creek moms with their kids in my head, the words and music of "As You Sleep" flowed out a few weekends ago. 

Although my writing partner Chris Meola and I are not quite done with the final instrument arrangements, I wanted to share what we have with you as we work to dot the I's and cross the T's. 

As always, many thanks to Dee for being the inspiration and indulging my creative whims and I'd also like to dedicate this one to the Kids and Moms of Norman Creek. Thanks for sharing your joy with the neighborhood!

That's The Way The Story Goes

A new song about love, life & family - and how I met my future sister-in-law on the first day of my job at Annandale St, Edinburgh many years ago. It's funny how things work out sometimes.  

Annandale

Now spinning the tunes 7pm every Saturday night's playing my favourite genre for the debut Progressive House @ Profound Radio 26.4.25.

It's any genre night, too, so I can see Saturdays becoming an experimental session. Possibly test out some Tech House, Afro, dnb ect...

Also a huge thanks to the listeners & crew for supporting me on the TFI Friday show over the last year or so! & ile ya next Sat peeps!!

I thought the world was getting smaller
With our nations growing closer through the years
Now I see the world is getting warmer
And people are divided by their fears
I thought that we were getting smarter 
Through science and all the things we’ve learned
But I see life is getting harder
And progress and books get burned

And I’m holed up, home alone by a TV screen
Feeling wound up by all the things I’ve seen
My mind is mixed up tryin’ to figure out what does it all mean
But made up I gotta change the scene
So won’t you save me from what I see
Show me that somebody can believe in me
Save me from what I see
Show me that somebody can care
Save me from what I see
Show me there’s a far better place to be
Save me from what I see
Show me there’s a cause to share

I thought our leaders sought to please us
Secure our peace, healthcare, rights and a living wage
Now I see how easy they deceive us
They’re putting walls up, they’re putting kids in a cage

And so it turns out it’s all bad news, but it’s all they got 
And it’s churned out, day after day, like it or not
I feel stressed out; it’s plain to see the politicians have lost the plot 
If I could bale out I’d be off in a shot 
So won’t you save me from what I see
Show me that somebody can believe in me
Save me from what I see
Show me that somebody can care
Save me from what I see
Show me there’s a far better place to be
Save me from what I see
Show me there’s a cause to share

Won’t you save me from what I see, from where we’re heading to 
Can’t we set ourselves free, forge a path that’s true? 
Save me from what I see when so much is so wrong
Let’s be just you and me somewhere we are strong

Save Me (From What I See)

When you're born in a peasant village fading into the grasp of outergalactic hell beasts, you must grow to be strong and quick of the heart and mind
