Really beautiful melody, and great vocals and overall sound.

you have always so beautiful "oldie" songs!

@user-936947521: Many thanks for the complimentary comments Frans; much appreciated.

nice blend of Lennon and Pink Floyd sounds - really like it

I like what you did with the chorus there - a little of a curve ball to keep the listener paying attention - well done

somber december

Suffocated by my dreams terrorized by my life. Conversations in my mind creep through secret tunnels, stepping out into the light of open spaces. I feel the blood draining from my face, as I hear whispers of denial from pristine cages mingling with homeless mothers. Who loved the day and pray for another. The dying embers of freedom colors are fading into the blackest of nights. Walking through shadows that leave the mist of time, my fingers are holding fragment of what’s left of my life

Cast of Characters:
E Ruizzo-- https://soundcloud.com/ruizzoidman21centurions --Manuel-- composition, lyrics, Squier Stratocaster electric guitar, vocals, mix, and production
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- piano, accordion, and horn
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– Jose Ramirez nylon stringed flamenco style guitar, and mastering
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums, percussion
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – four string Fender Precision Bass bass

This song began all the way back when Manuel was 16 and found love that summer with a girl named Carmen. He remembered her, though, and wrote this song about her all these years later. The title of the song means "Your name has the song," and the lyrics spell out the girl's charms using the letters of her name. Check out the lyrics and the translation below. 
  Using that inspiration, Manuel came up with the song structure and the vocal melodies to a rudimentary drum track with his electric guitar. He then asked Josh if the group would be interested in taking it on. Josh, never being one to refuse a challenging piece of music, and always on the lookout for interesting musicians with whom to collaborate, accepted his kind offer and created a project for the rest of the Eclectic Collecitve to join. He started the whole thing off by adding his bass, to which Ken added his innovative drums, to which Josh redid his bass, as is the typical process in the EC.
  Next up was JJ, who you'd think he'd grown up with Spanish music the way he added the horns, accordion, and piano. Then Stephen stepped in and added his psychedelic and intricate acoustic guitar to the stew. 
  It was all done, except for the mix at this point. Manuel did the honors, and did it very expertly. Stephen mastered it to give it more volume and dynamism, too, as he always does. 
  This was the first, but we hope not the last, time the EC has collaborated with Manuel, although we're all fans of the incredible music on his page. He was a true delight to work with, giving honest, encouraging feedback and helping us shape his song to meet his vision. We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Original lyrics by E Ruizzo:

TU NOMBRE TIENE LA CANCIÓN  /  YOUR NAME HAS THE SONG

Qué es una lágrima en el desierto?  /  What is a tear in the desert?
Cae sin ruido, se evapora y se olvida.  /  It falls without noise, evaporates and is forgotten.
No tiene tiempo de brillar, su vida  /  It has no time to shine, its life
es corta y su camino tan incierto…  /  is short and its path so uncertain...

Ce del calor del desierto y su sol,  /  ‘C’ for the heat of the desert and its sun,
a del adiós por el que lloré tanto;  /  ‘a’ for the farewell for which I cried so much;
erre del río que forma mi llanto;  /  ‘r’ for the river formed by my crying;
eme de miedo, de magia y de amor.  /  ‘m’ for fear, for magic and for love.

E de esperanza, de espacio rosado,  /  ‘E’ for hope, for pink space,
de espina clavada, de suelta emoción;  /  for stuck thorn, for loose emotion;
ene de noche de un tiempo pasado.  /  ‘n’ for night of a past time.

Carmen, tu nombre tiene la canción  /  Carmen, your name has the song
de todo aquello que has significado:  /  of all that you have meant:
Carmen de luz, de sonrisa y de adiós.  /  Carmen of light, of smile and of goodbye.

Tu Nombre Tiene La Canción (with The Eclectic Collective)

SOME STORIES CAN’T BE TOLD
LIKE SOME LEGENDS OF OLD
YOU JUST HAVE TO UNFOLD THEM
UNTIL THEY NEVER END

JE M’AIME UN PEU BEAUCOUP A LA FOLIE PAS DU TOUT
PASSIONNÉMENT COMME UN FOU ET JE ME PENDS A MON COU

JE M’AIME ET TOUT À COUP AH JE NE M’AIME PLUS DU TOUT
JE TOMBE À MES GENOUX HIBOUX CAILLOUX JOUJOUX

LOVE ME LOVE ME NOT 
LOVE ME LOVE ME NOT

SOME PEOPLE CAN’T BE TOLD
je t’aime un peu beaucoup
SOME HEARTS OF GOLD
à la folie toujours et partout
ALL YOU CAN DO IS HOLD THEM
comme un fou
UNTIL THE VERY END
je t’aime un point c’est tout

SOME PEOPLE (Lyrics)

A song from 'way back when' newly recorded for Valentine's Day.

Another Love Song

A complete re-recording in the key played live. It was one of those recordings that sounded really messy. Dropping the fader on the acoustic guitar I'd started the whole thing off with revealed a different direction highlighting case and drums. It's about females who stand up for the community against arrogance and male chauvinism and I see them in my work environment - this song is about them..

Miss Rocket Launcher

Hey hey you this Joan of Arc - Miss Rocket Launcher
Love you sending into space – those flying saucers
Your eyes they dart and sense corrosion
You’re leaning forward in silky motion
You know who is fit to govern
For those who aren’t they get concussion
Your elbows dent the seats of power
Your rocket roars it’s getting louder

Hey hey you Sister of Mercy – Miss Rocket Launcher
Love it that they’re on your mind – the poor and poorer
When you sense their exploitation
Your voice it cracks and lips are brazen
I’d hate to be your target right then
A volley gone to crack their heads
We’re hungry like Cohen’s Partisan
We’ll force ‘em to the stones and hear the doors slam 

Room dust scatters as your strident voice rises
Tables go silent as you render the kaisers

Hey hey you this Mother Theresa – Miss Rocket Launcher
Can feel the warmth inside of you – and getting warmer
When they wallow in their greed
You let one go and make em all flee
I’m feeling for the hem of your gown
The reverent touch the best to be found
I know that you will win in the end
And sharing it with you – what a send

Un immense merci au talentueux Julien Apelian https://soundcloud.com/audio-colors pour cette magnifique composition qu'il m'a si gentiment proposée, j'ai écrit ce texte sur l'esprit libre qui était le titre de sa composition, sans attache ni contrainte, détaché des lois à l'infini car chaque jour on établi des nouvelles lois qui rendent tout compliqué, 
c'est aussi un petit clin d'œil au chanteur "Renaud" dans sa chanson le déserteur qui m'a toujours touché et nous rappelle ce qu'il y a de plus important dans la vie. quelques autres chanson toujours d'actualités :
Répondez moi de Francis Cabrel / plus de sentiments de Michel berger / Vivre ou survivre de Balavoine/ ma liberté de pensées de Florent Pagny/ La montagne de Jean Ferrat etc..,

paroles

Ne rend pas la vie trop compliquée
A la fin rien ne sera emporté
Il est temps de se laisser porter
Mettre de côté certaines de nos idées

J’ai beau fermer les yeux
Je ne comprends pas
Ce sont les mêmes questions, qui
Reviennent à chaque pas
Alors j’ai composé
Ça me délivrera
Car c’est une illusion
Où, comment, quand et pourquoi ?

Peu à peu tout s’est inversé
On m’avait covidifié
J’avais perdu le goût 
Tout le monde le sait 
Le système rend fou, une partie du monde s’en fou

L’effet de l’esprit libre ouvre les chakras

Besoin de prendre le large
Mon cœur s’est mis à hurler
Même si on me traite de barge
Je vais quand même essayer
J’ai envie d’y croire
Ce n’est peut-être pas facile
Sur cette autoroute, partir
L’esprit libre et tranquille

Refrain :
Hé sur les dunes j’ai crié
Je voulais encore te voir danser
Et chanter nos rêves oubliés
Ici j’en ai plus qu’assez

Bienvenue au royaume de l’absurde
Triangle des Bermudes
Paradoxe d’incertitude
Pleine lune, nouvelle attitude, je reprends de l’altitude

Sans répit, mes doigts grattent l’asphalte
Suspendu à un fil
Comme un funambule en équilibre
Et sans filet
C’est le temps des rois
Entre le cerf et le comte
J’ai bien pesé le pour et le contre
Ça ne fait pas le poids
Si maladroit
Ne sais pas quoi faire de mes dix doigts

Rien ne va vraiment changer
Si certain traînent encore les pieds
Nous ne sommes pas des automates programmées
Loin d’êtres éveillés
Je ne suivrais plus le destructeur
Avec ses machines infernales
Son coté séducteur et ses adorateurs
Qui le mettent sur un piédestal 

J’aime pas les dictatures conformistes
Ecrasent les pauvres pour faire des riches
J’préfère les antivax, les complotistes
Peut-être sont-ils avant gardistes ?

Je n’aime pas non plus les militaires
Car ce sont ceux qui font des guerres
Font taire les poètes, les missionnaires
Transforment les pays en misère, depuis des millénaires

Alors suffirait-il de rallumer son cœur ?
Redécouvrir son intérieur
L'ile aux trésor aux multiples couleurs
Pas besoin de chercher ailleurs

Je méditerai sur les collines 
J’irai trouver cette lumière
Celle que la joie illumine
L’immortel contre l’éphémère

La musique est universelle
Rassemble ses enfants auprès d’elle
Elle ne divise pas, elle est fidèle 
Une vibration éternelle

Alors maintenant pour redonner force et courage 
Devrons écrire les plus belles chansons 
Réparer le monde, cet héritage
Ecouter les enfants et leurs supplications
Solidaire , car la terre promise, le paradis, c’est « ici »

This first album of mine will take you on a personal and romantic journey,. Diverge in music style just like me. I am Divergent. 

I Want You Now

First of all thanks for dropping in on my page.
I sing, write songs and play rhythm guitar. I'm trying to learn a bit of bass. People tell me I've got a reasonable voice and I have a liking for melody. As I make my way with multi-track home recording, I'm hoping the the end result will be greater than the sum of the parts!
So again, thanks for dropping by. Hopefully you will take a listen to some of my songs and if you like what you hear, it would be great if you could leave a comment.

Another Love Song
