Distant Memory

After picking up and falling in love with the low whistle this year, I wanted to compose an Irish folk style song for which I can play and record most of the instruments. So this is what I came up with.
Many thanks to Dominic Kennedy for supporting me with a great bodhrán performance and my wife Daniela Fugger for singing harmonies.

You can find a music video, in which you can see me playing most of the instruments, on YouTube:

Keeping with the Valentine's Day theme of love, here's an oldie but goldie I wrote this back in 1998, can you believe it, It's another song about my dream girl that I wouldn't meet for many year afterwards. I was divorced for about 2 years and pretty much feeling abandoned and lonely. I remember wanting to write a song in the same vein as "And I Love Her" by The Beatles. A very acoustic number with an accordion playing in the background, you know, very romantic like something you might hear in a Paris cafe! This was one of the first songs I did with Charlie, it wasn't recorded too well since I had an old Tascam 8-track analog recorder and it's distorted quite a bit but I think the melody and lyrics still hold up. (Mastering didn't help this song at all, sorry!) I don't know, let me know what you think in the comments. I've always liked the first line about wrapping myself inside her smile. I produced the video a few months ago for this Valentine's Day. I enjoyed putting it together and added like 10 quick snap shots of beautiful women taking selfies at the end of the video. I hope you guys enjoy it and Happy Valentine's Day to everyone! Ciao! 😎✌🏼

“HOW I LOVE HER”

IT’S JUST SOMETHING IN THE WAY SHE WEARS A SMILE,   
THAT MAKES ME WANT TO WRAP MYSELF INSIDE IT,   
NO MATTER HOW HARD I MIGHT TRY TO HIDE IT,   
HOW I LOVE HER,             
     
SIMPLY A SUBTLE SHIFT OF HER BEAUTIFUL EYES, 
MELTS AWAY ALL THE BITTERNESS WITHIN ME,   
AND EVERY TIME SHE TOUCHES ME, SHE WINS ME,  
HOW I LOVE HER,

I ADORE HER EVERY CULTIVATED GLANCE,       
AND EACH MOVEMENT THAT SHE MAKES IS LIKE A DANCE,
THERE’S NO WORDS TO EXPRESS HOW MUCH I LOVE HER,       
I CAN NEVER SEEM TO GET ENOUGH OF HER,       
SHE’S MY DREAM COME TRUE, MY EVERYTHING,       
AND WITH EACH AND EVERY LOOK SHE MAKES MY SENSES SING,
     
EVERY TIME SHE KISSES ME, I’M IN HEAVEN,   
WHEN SHE’S IN MY ARMS MY WORRIES DISAPPEAR,          
MY LOVE FOR HER GROWS STRONGER WITH EACH YEAR,   
HOW I LOVE HER,      
          
I ADORE HER EVERY CULTIVATED GLANCE,        
AND EACH MOVEMENT THAT SHE MAKES IS LIKE A DANCE,
THERE’S NO WORDS TO EXPRESS HOW MUCH I LOVE HER,         
I CAN NEVER SEEM TO GET ENOUGH OF HER,       
SHE’S MY DREAM COME TRUE, MY EVERYTHING,       
AND WITH EACH AND EVERY LOOK SHE MAKES MY SENSES SING,
     
EVERY TIME SHE KISSES ME, I’M IN HEAVEN,    
WHEN SHE’S IN MY ARMS MY WORRIES DISAPPEAR,           
MY LOVE FOR HER GROWS STRONGER WITH EACH YEAR,  
HOW I LOVE HER,   
HOW I LOVE HER,   
HOW I LOVE HER.

calm down

Another acoustic song taken on by Mighty Mike Fox for This Sound Society project.
Can’t thank him enough for his efforts,  skills & enthusiasm for the ideas. A double busy top bloke.
This song is about a personal experience a long time ago that still to this day can hurt when mentioned.
Then 20 years after the dust as settled the opportunity arises out of the blue to cut to the chase and talk truth & transparency about the situation.
Always two sides to a story and their version strangely favours the brave but they take no responsible for their actions and the feelings of others after they shit on you from a great height after you have been always helpful & decent to them. 
You may still love these people and forgive them but you never forget.
So it’s about people who are close to you wether it’s family or friends. 
We have probably all been there and feel betrayed but because of who they are you rise above to be a better person. 
They don’t change with time just turn inside out.
They will still be out for number one and would sell their Granny for personal gain .
To be deceitful, lie and play you like a fiddle leaving you in the dark.
This Sound Society gives you the second track of 2025.
20 years……..

V1
Time as a habit of bringing things to the surface
So if you want to get into this then it better be worth  it 
My versions different and your gonna deserve it 
20 years as passed since that day  in earnest 



There’s  a time to talk this through 
Now’s the time time for me & you
To talk……..  transparency & truth x2

V2
There’s always an excuse for why it shouldn’t of happened 
You only have reasons that  you just imagined 
And just because it’s 20 years doesn’t make it old fashioned 
So take a seat and let’s watch it all Unfasten 

Chorus 

Lead break

Finish on double chorus

lyrics:
I've been dreaming for so long
and never woke up back to reality
i never thought it could take so long
to learn such a solid morality

Thought i was screaming, nightmares dreaming
and it's time not to hide away
It's time for breathing, 
forget about those golden years so fly away

And then i opened my eyes and realize
that neon lights blinded my side
and it's time to get up my feet again
and regain what's mine and never let it again.

(p) & (c) STA, 2025.

Thought I Was Dreaming

TITLE: IT'S NOT LOVE; IT'S SOMETHING ELSE
_______________________________________________________


LYRICS:
(Verse 1)
You call me late when the moon is on fire
Your words are sweet, but they’re laced with wire
You hold me close, but your hands let go
Is this the spark or a shadow show

(Chorus)
It’s not love it’s something else
A halfway house where the heart rebels
You keep me near but not too tight
A situationship dressed up in light

(Verse 2)
You text me back but your words are thin
A hollow laugh when the truth kicks in
You want the thrill but not the fall
This isn’t a bridge it’s a paper wall

(Chorus)
It’s not love it’s something else
A carousel with no stories to tell
You spin me round but don’t hold my gaze
A situationship lost in the haze

(Bridge)
Where’s the line between want and need
Between a game and a love that bleeds
Your lips say stay but your heart says go
Am I the lead or just your cameo

(Chorus)
It’s not love it’s something else
A borrowed dream where the echoes dwell
You light the match, but you fear the flame
A situationship playing love’s name

Side Piece Ain't Your Slide Piece

It's Not Love; It's Something Else

The bass line in this drew blood! Schweeeeet. This is always a good sign as generally you are wearing your finger a slightly different way. I think that's true here for my bass playing. I'm not a well versed bass player but getting there finally with it 🧬🎶

Tempo of 161 BPM borrowed from Sit Down Stand Up by Radiohead which is track 2 off the album Hail to the Thief

You Reflect Perfect

Music mainstream
The world mind web of subliminal dream
Quiet control
Mind melding meme
To be tuned or to be not
Pure positive shock this scene

Feed the feather fuel
Merge winds with mystic
Perfect pedestals unrealistic
The look
Make up perfection
We give the masses blind reflections
Mirror muted free with a lack of love for "me"

You're reflection
Always perfection
You're reflection
Always perfection

Escape is easy
No dopamine drought
No pain finds feeling
Each day scrolled out
Device extensions
Limbs of tech
Robot wars for eye contact
Moderation manifest flora
Tune in cause soon direct access box of pandora
Ads direct to your brain
They already conduct most of your 'sane'
Rear projected square light
Chip in your head
We'd want to know the keys before decisions lost instead

You're reflection
Always perfection

Take all belief and direct it to you
Too hold some for your Earthling crew
Let's not deal in absolutions
Unity
Union
Yearns for trueness
Absolute stops the hunt for new honest
Fluid is found
Unknown next stage of forest
Coded base pairs
Twist on the double
Force field flushed darkness
Tackle some trouble

You're reflection
Always perfection
You're reflection
Always perfection

You Reflect Perfect
