lyrics Google-translation:

Dreams sometimes never want to go away.
Pure fantasy
Which, unfortunately, somehow,
numbs everything else
and in the end, nothing remains.

Like a star in the deepest night,
You've managed, with strange power,
That I lose myself
in you.

You come like a white glow.
Stride by and smile softly into the world.
You will always be.
Like the light, the air, a life I seek.
And you take in everything you touch with your wonderful gaze.
You only leave me behind.
You only leave me behind.

I run after you,
but your trail
Blows away, and wherever I am,
Only a breath of you remains.
I freeze and search for you so much.

Why doesn't the gentle light warm me?
That your eyes deny no one else.
As if they were suns.
Just not for me.

You come like a white glow
You walk by and smile softly at the world
You will always be
Like the light, the air, a life I seek
And you take in everything you touch with your wonderful gaze
You leave only me behind
You leave only me behind

I've had a passion for music since I was a child, but I wasn't really trained, so I chose a different career path. Nevertheless, at some point I decided to take the ongoing creative pressure within me seriously, even if I can't deliver a professional performance.
Maybe one or two songs will resonate or encourage you to express yourself musically.

Seit Kindheit habe ich eine Leidenschaft für die Musik, aber nicht so richtig ausgebildet, deshalb auch beruflich anderen Weg gewählt. Dennoch habe ich mich irgendwann entschieden,  den anhaltenden kreativen Druck in mir ernst zu  nehmen, auch wenn ich keine professionelle Performance liefern kann. 
Vielleicht stößt der eine oder andere Song ja auf Resonanz oder regt an, sich einmal selbst musikalisch mitzuteilen.

”Music is a direct interface from and to the unconscious“

Most of these pieces are written and performed at night. Truely nocturnal, they are children of the twilight, situated in the undefined zone between sleep and awakening, at the edge of the unconscious, at “the gates of dawn”.
The name “Morgengrauen” in German refers to the hour before dawn, when the early grey and sunless light tries to swallow the demons of the night.

Best listened to at night, with headphones on.

“Musik hat eine direkte Verbindung zum Unterbewussten”

Die meisten Tracks entstehen nachts. Nächtliche Kinder des Zwielichts, in der undefinierten Grauzone zwischen schlafen und wachen, an der Grenze des Unterbewusstseins, vor den Toren zum Morgen. Das “Grauen” in dem Wort Morgengrauen referiert an die frühe Stunde vor Anbruch des Tages, wenn das frühe Licht, grau und noch sonnenlos, versucht, das Grauen der nächtlichen Demonen zu verschlucken. 

Am besten nachts mit Kopfhörer lauschen.

no, I’m not an AI enthusiast, but I use AI as a singer I've been looking for all my life. I'm a guitarist and, in my spare time, a passionate songwriter and producer from hamburg, germany.
this page is a place to share some german lyrics written by me over the past few decades and sung by virtual vocalists from  suno 4.0 and, more recently, suno 4.5+. these are based on my compositions, pre-recorded backing tracks and 'prompts' to help the machine get half way close to my imagination.
thank you for listening, and for your indulgence with regard to the literal translations, which prove that there is a fine line between translation and interpretation...

Songs: We find them unpainted in our hands, throw them up into the air of our imagination, turning them in the colours we see after we close our eyes until they feel just right, and sometimes we catch them perfectly, without blemishing them...

My music is on most platforms for your ease.

Wow!!  417K+ plays and 4,000+ valued followers and friends on SC alone, that provide lots of wonderfully helpful comments that fuel the next track! Really big thanks to the SC community for listening and providing such brilliant feedback and support. It means so much to myself and my collaborators - huge thanks.

I work in different styles, as the inspiration, dreams or bubonic plagiarism comes! I use Logic Pro X on Mac.
 
I write, produce and play all my own stuff (unless otherwise stated), play vintage Tokai Strats mainly, PRS Torero, Steinberger, Gretsch G2627T, Classical, Fender Dreadnought, Yamaha and Rickenbacker basses, keyboards and sax. I use Native Instrument's Komplete, Omnisphere 2 and my own organic samples.

I mix on Sennheiser HD 280 Pro's and HD 650's (closed and open headphones) when not making a bigger noise through my Yamaha HS8 studio monitors. I use Focusrite Clarett 2Pre ThunderBolt and Apogee audio interfaces, Neumann & iSK condenser & AKG dynamic mics. 

Hardware: Feb 1978 Marshall JMP 50W Combo, BOO & BOSS stomps

I love collaborating with other musicians and will compose with, play guitar for, produce, arrange, master or even just hum along with other SC musicians. Please ask!

P.S. I am a long standing member of the Performing Rights Society and PPL through my old TV and theatre work as well as my record and publishing deals.

Mountain Songs is a project dedicated to my brother Brian Reeves (aka Rocky Mountain, 1948–2012), an accomplished songwriter, guitarist and arranger.  He was the creative force behind so many of the songs on this page.  If you have time, please click for lyrics and track history. 
This is for you Bri, with love and thanks from us all.   We miss you. (Gary Reeves)

In the late 1940’s in the Fulham\Hammersmith area there used to be a club that would raise money for people with disabilities. The club itself would have various activities which a large number involved live music. The name itself was created by the local people who used the club as there main place of entertainment. When my mother in law told me all about it the club and its name I was sold. It seemed to suit me and my brother for so many reasons.

I spent my youth trying to become the next George Best but by the late 70s it was clear that I did not have the talent required and because of my single mindedness about this pursuit I think my eldest brother Brian was absolutely shocked when he received 3 songs written and performed by me on a cassette tape in the post.

This was the start of "Root Division" and without my two brothers’ talent and input it would not have existed. In addition to myself, Terry Reeves, my two brothers Brian Reeves and Gary Reeves, John Palmer (a bass player from my brothers' previous bands) he was a very encouraging influence on every thing I wrote and I owe him a lot. I would like every body to know that we had such a good time through out the existence of the band and I don’t remember a time when we were not laughing at one time or another.As there are only two of us left the band will no longer be producing anymore music so this is a celebration of Root Division’s beginning to end. I hope you enjoy.
