Fantastic funky drive! Really great 1970s vibe! Guitars and drums are impressive. Cheers, man!

Fabulous lyrics, awesome drum sample or did you use that double kick drum.....

Hahaha, yeah, the double kick drum …uh …uh , another fantastic work!

Liking this cool, post modern song weirdly reminding me of Alice's Restaurant Massacree... seems our planet has become one big landfill.

Fun cover of a classic from the great Lenny Kravitz...

lyrics:
We've been through a lot, a lot of shit
now it's time to fight, fight against
against this depression and evil vibe
this is the time we will take over our lives

We've been submersed deep deep down
we've lost our faith into this evil town
we have to get back, get back to our own feet
we had enough, enough with this shit!

and now we have our head up high
we know what it's true and never dies
and now we step up with god's command
we won't take it anymore, not get stuck into the sand

It won't take forever just to reach our dream
it won't take forever to delete the bad scene
it won't take forever to hold your hand
it won't take forever to the promised land

it won't take forever to live again
it won't take forever to face the sun
it won't take forever, it won't take forever!

Rock and Roll Kills

It Won't Take Forever

This song is again recorded with my phone. (Next probably a DAW song!) Motörhead has a cover of "Johnny B. Goode", so I Iistened to the original from the 50s! Chuck Berry Rock ‘n Roll. The intro is great, there are more songs with similar intros. They are so cool that I wanted to learn them at the end of last year and did. In this song, I just use my version of it as the intro. I play it a little lower so it's appropriate for my song. The last chord of the intro is the 1st chord of my song, except I play it as a power chord instead of a major chord. Some of my intro version is pretty much like the original, some is my version. It's really fun to play with these Rock ’n Roll intros, I could do it for hours. In one of the covers of the songs with these intros, the one with Beethoven in the title, there's an orchestral version of Beethoven's famous symphony at the beginning. I wanted that too, but of course only on my guitar, so I made up a guitar version of it and put it in front of the Rock ‘n Roll intro. Only after that my own song begins. It's even more freely than my 1st song here. I know the chords and riffs and lyrics, but decide always when playing when to change the riff. So the recording is a way for me to learn to produce one special version and not play it differently each time. You will hear that it is played and sung very freely. So consider it as a song performance for friends, not really a well-structured and finished song. Furthermore, I play nearly everything as slides, so it is harder to play then it sounds. I wanted to play it a bit faster, but it was not possible, this is the fastest drum accompaniment my amplifier has, it doesn't go any faster. One the other hand, for some parts of the lyrics it would be really difficult to sing it any faster.
Since someone asked for the lyrics of my last song I provide it here:
Guitar Heros
Guitar heroes of the past, may be gone, their music will last.
Chuck Berry, Jimi Hendrix gave us all the great licks
Angus Young, so alive, plays day and night
Eternal guitar riffs sound so loud
Make Berry’s Rock’n’Roll proud

Guitar heroes of the past, may be gone, their music will last.
Eddie van Halen’s fire hand, Tony Iommi’s powerful band
And not forget all the women of Rock:
Lita Ford’s solos wild and bold
Joan Jett’s chords breaking the mold
From their style I find my own
Like from seeds they have sown
With their songs I find my way
Getting better every day
Discovering riffs old and new
Offers a lesson for me and you
For me and you, for me and you

Guitar Heros

A song about holding on to not moving on
Some moving pictures (and words) here - https://youtu.be/yqiJaQpJBsM 

Lyrics Part 1
Don’t go holding on to all of your failure
Not if you wanna reach for success
And don’t bite down on regret too soon
Because you might never get to forget
All the times when we were flailing 
And the lives when we were flawed
And all the chances that we gave up so willingly
Just so we could run away from those doors

Meanwhile losers keep on losing their time 
Yet still always they’ll find it to waste
Stuck holding onto that hopeless hope
Just to give themselves a kick in the face
So for the times when we were flailing 
And the lives when we were flawed
To all the chances that we gave up so willingly
Just so we could run away from those doors
Back then
We never thought about before
Wishing we could swap for before

We ran to choices that we chose to choose from
In indecision we were always so sure
But you can’t keep on fighting circles
Cos nobody wins a victimless war

We know we gotta make ourselves our own saviours
And go find new ways to believe
Yeah let’s stand up to always being stood up
By all of life’s cruel fate histories 
So bye to times when we were flailing
Au revoir to lives when we were floored
Ciao to Chances that we gave up so willingly
Just so we could run away from those doors
We ran to
Choices that we chose to choose from
In indecision we were always so sure
But you can’t keep on fighting circles
Cos nobody wins a victimless war
The answers not to go on just live out our lives
We must forgive not forget about before
Let’s step up to the plate and feed on love
Not gonna let us die on this floor
Cos if we don’t make love our law
We’ll never learn not to fall
We’re gonna die on this floor
Yeah if we don’t make love our law
We’ll never learn not to crawl
We’re gonna die on this floor
We’re gonna die on this floor
We’re gonna die on this floor
Gonna die on this floor
We’re gonna die on
We’re gonna die on
Gonna die on
Not gonna die on

Lyrics Part 2
Let love be our law
Let love be our law 
We’ll never forget before
But we must let love be our law
From empty ashes we burn
All life’s lessons we learned
We’ll never heal that hole
Always part of our soul
Let love be our law (never forget) 
Let love be our law
Let love be our law (never forget)
Let love be our law

The Floor (holding on)

I enjoyed a lot to collaborate with Synline https://soundcloud.com/synline ( Composition and Sampling collage) and mozawa_* https://soundcloud.com/user-174681242 (Beat) on this one. 
A great honor and pleasure for me to write and sing along.


Bodies Swaying

Smooth,
Into the groove…

Step by step
That is a romance
Meet me on that spot tonight
Tune by tune
That is a romance
Hoof by hoof
That is the moon dance

Sometimes it’s one ahead and then three to back
Then swinging round and returning on another track

And ancient lanters wander across the sky again
Singing old songs in a language we’ll never understand
And they go…

Meet me under the moon tonight  
Let us dance into the morning light
I promise I will not step on your toes
Just swaying bodies in the silver light

Smooth, 
Waving in the silver groove

Sometimes it’s one ahead and then three to back
Then swinging round and returning on another track
Into the distance and then out of mind
Then slinging round and appearing on the other side

While our bodies swaying to the music
And they go…

Meet me under the moon tonight  
Let us dance into the morning light
Oh, bodies swaying to the music
Our bodies swaying to the music

Journey To The Edge Of Reason

Music : Janne Hennie & PJ Project
Vocals & lyrics : Janne Hennie

I knocked on your door, you didn't let me in
I hammered all I could, it didn't change anything..
You had made yourself a golden plated key
Which no one was allowed to touch, not even me..

The key was your protection
You used it to shut out
All that was difficult, and when you were in doubt
You wore it on a heavy chain around your neck
Like a precious piece of jewelry..

Let me in, I promise to be good to you
Let me in, I promise to be positive for you
I will help you carry your golden plated key
Let me in, open your door for me..

I will help you carry your golden plated key
Let me in, open your door for me..

The key is heavy to carry all alone
Eventually it will feel like the weight of a stone
You need to share the burden, so open up your door
Let me in, so you're not alone anymore..

Let me in, I promise to be good to you
Let me in, I promise to be positive for you
I will help you carry your golden plated key
Let me in, open your door for me..

Let Me In W/ Janne Hennie

Good Cop Bad Cop.


They're playin with my head.

Yeah I could say most anything
You twist my words and throw them back at me
It doesn't really matter what I say
You'll draw your own conclusions anyway

Good cop, bad cop.

No mater how it looks or what I say
They're coming out all wrong, my words today
Made up your mind about the way this goes
It's juxtapose if the truth be told.

Good cop bad cop
Playing with my mind.

Yeah I could say most anything
You'll mince it up and bake your lies with it
A recipe for imoral gain
Targets met, bad cop at the reins

Good cop bad cop
Make it stop.

Good Cop Bad Cop.  (Voice of Logan collab).

Illegal dumping has become a problem everywhere. Too much damn stuff. Contrary to the narrators lyrical viewpoint, this is actually a song about over consumption. 
From the album "Röckers" (2024)

Lyrics:
Dyer Road, Dyer Road
It's where you go to unload
All the stuff that you don't want to own
Out on Dyer Road
In the city's unincorporated zone
It's not the dump
It's the unknown
Out on Dyer, Dyer Road

You've got microwave ovens from 1983
A box spring mattress
A VHS of "The Goonies"
It's an area of ill repute
I swear I saw a chicken wire monkey suit
And that love seat that you bought
But, there was no love to be found
At Christmas, you we're so sad
It made you blue
Because for Christmas she gave you
Counterfeit Jordan shoes
Yeah, get it out there
Dispose of it
On Dyer Road

Dyer Road
You treat the earth like it's something on loan
On Dyer Road
We treat the earth like it's rent to own
Dyer Road

The sign says, "Illegal dumpers, they will be fined."
That's why I always go undercover of the nighttime
The County and the City say they can't agree of jurisdiction and enforcement
So I take my stuff out by the power lines
I found an unopened box of Spearmint Gum
I'm gonna resell it on Amazon
Up my income
I feel kind of dumb for buying all this stuff
Excuse me!
Excuse me!
I've got to dispose of this double kick drum
(Double, double, double kick drum)
Out on Dyer Road

Uh huh, on Dyer Road... (Elvis has left the building)

Dyer Road

Abandoned And Neglected
