Never Shy Away - Live

Anyone listening to this song will think how on earth did she come up with this....
Well yesterday I discovered an interesting synth and found a guitar called Pawnshop and that is how the name of this production came about.

The lyrics started from that point on.
#creativeme

Presenting my latest production:

The Pawn Shop
(spoken word)
It's across the street
from the railway line
and just around the corner

there's a neon sign 
saying
we buy everything
just bring it down
but we won't give you what it's worth

You see
one man's pain
is another man's pleasure

One man's trash 
is another man's treasure

So I walked into the pawn shop
and what did 
I see

Lots of brands
have intense names
like rigor mortis
or mortuary
well were'nt that intense
we called ourselves the injured

What kind of things do you see

Everything in here has a story
and a price

You ever know what's
going to come through that door

Now your in my way
and I am not interested
what's under the counter
looking around

what  did I see
I dont want to come home with you
I'd rather go back to my owner
I should not have landed here at all
I know there was a reason
I was brought here
I hope that one day
I'll be claimed back
and sent home
to my owner
where I belong
I didn't want to be here
I was sold off
That's the story
of the Pawnshop
around the corner
Neon Lights
saying
We Buy Everything

Fairytale Of Three

Teaser -
Theme song based on Drusilla, Vavara”s character emerges, a mysterious cunning character hiding many secrets of her past…..


In the quiet corridors of time, her transformation unfolded, revealing hues not seen before. From the shadows of sibling rivalry, she emerged, the eldest in pursuit of acknowledgment, weaving a tapestry of deception. Beneath the facade of wisdom, a cunning spirit thrived, orchestrating a complex dance of lies on the stage of her quest for acceptance and success.

Teaser - Fairytale Of 3

Those that know me well got to hear that tonight was the first time I lit up my Christmas Tree, so at the same time I thought I would produce a Merry Christmas Song, only a short one using some of the instruments I love most.  

This was a very simple effort didn't take me long as I had chores to attend to first so here it goes.

What you hear are:
Drums
Banjo
Percussion
Saxophone
Piano
Piano Accordion
Organ

Wishing all my wonderful Soundcloud Friends, Collaborators & Mentors a safe, peaceful Xmas lets hope 2024, brings more peace around the world.  What more can one say about this unsettled world.

Lyrics & Vocals by Heidi-Marie

Marcey she told me
something
Marcey knew the truth

Now I know 
Now I’ll think
Now should I
Now would I 

Not sure

Sitting there in another State
Thinkin
YOU
thought I’d never know

But
Marcey
She told me so
She knew YOU and what your capable of

She knew
What YOU were like

and as a child
innocently had no idea
Didn’t think you’d get up to

Now your old and grey
now
YOU gotta away
with it 
for so many years

I’m sitting here
Thinking
Why would 

Should I 
Would I
Should I
Would I
I’ll think
About it
Never thought
I’d feel this way
But again I ain’t like you

I know the secret
you are hiding

no no no no no no
I said no no no no no no

Never
gonna
trust
YOU again

Only the Wicked Sista knows
Or are THEY just as bad as one another

Marcey knows
What she’s like
She’ll find every way
To deny it
and so
She packed up and left
for another State
to get away

I thank Marcey

I thank Marcey

She was my 
Crystal Ball
Thank you Marcey
Thank you Marcey
I don't how to thank you

THANK YOU MARCEY

Wicked Sister Annie (Feat. Heidi-Marie & TEAM Wikiloops)

As the name implies, “white anting” refers to a form of sabotage which is so subtle, it can be difficult to identify or expose. It is a covert form of bullying that aims to undermine or discredit the achievements and influence of another.

Decades later
I have a little message just for YOU
The ones know me well

666
Was the YEAR
I’m sure YOU’ll remember

YOU never thought
This innocent babe
Would pay YOU BACK in 2020
YOU’ve always
tried
stalling tactics
White-Anting me

The truth
awakens
To those that come 
looking for it
Old age is catching up on YOU
 more than me
YOU just got away
with so much 

Now it’s time
You gotta
Watch your back
Cause
Someone’s watchin YOU

Cause everyone’s 
On to YOU
Watchin what your up to next

The Year of 666
She’s got one up
 on YOU
Time let them hear some
of that
rock & roll 
YOU never thought
this innocent babe
Would pay YOU BACK in 2020

YOU’ve always
tried
stalling tactics
White-Anting me

Gotta
be some
rock & roll
music thats 
the way for YOU
I’ll rock the World
with that music 

That’s why
I’ll
blow your mind

WATCH YOUR BACK
Cause 
Someone’s watching YOU

You Never thought
This innocent babe
Would pay YOU BACK in 2020

WATCH YOUR BACK

Today as a  Classical Music Composer growing up my parents listened to Franz Liszt - I still have the original record. 

 My music teacher was the late: Anatoly Miroshnyk (born August 19, 1923 - died July 14, 2011) was a Ukrainian composer, pianist, teacher, musician and public figure.

(We often think of talented musicians as folks who start young and advance their skills via the finest education available to them. While this is certainly true in some cases, there are plenty who realised many of their artistic capacities without the aid of specialised instruction).

#patience #perseverance #persistence #perspiration & @nevergiveup

Firstly let me introduce myself it takes great courage to be producing music at my stage of life but it’s all about giving everything a go and if you are passionate about something before it’s too late DO iT!  I personally don't care what anyone thinks......

Thank you for visiting my profile.  So proud to be sharing my new profile with you all on Triple J Unearthed.  Really appreciate your support if you are interested in supporting me.

Where words leave off, music begins.. Not everyone has the ability to compose music so HERE I AM - I enjoy singing Jazz & Blues with the talented musicians on Wikiloops a truly amazing collaborative community.

Through life I've always been passionate about music composition and never really had the time but now I make time.

Find my global music journey since 2012 on various music platforms 

https://linktr.ee/ArapaMusic

Born & tested by professionals from the Australian Conservatorium of Music apparently I have perfect pitch and some amazing ability to accompany any musician or add hooks to any genre - as a singer I’m not that great but who cares thats why most is spoken word - most of all I enjoy the creativity & what joy it brings 👀  #followme #leadingintothe21stcenturyofthe3rdmillenium #3rdgeneration 

As a creator of sound, as a classical music composer, electronic music production, beat making & lyric writing my journey has been interesting even producing for rap artists 

.isoncrtekybthank my mentors whom I occasionally give me some  tips on mastering skills which I appreciate ❤️🌈

I have my own style - either you like it or not -  always open for collaborations

🎤I have no fear of perfection - will never reach it 🎧   I don’t have the perfect voice nor am I aiming to be the best - most of all I am passionate about composing & producing music.

Thank you to all who believe in me and MOST OF ALL my amazing Mentor thank you Sir for encouraging me to NEVER GIVE UP it all takes time and practice.

Purchased my first microphone a Blue Yeti Pro on 4.11.2019 as I kind of got bored composing classical music.   My mixing & mastering techniques have been learned from Youtube tutorials & experimenting with Logic Pro X.   I love the creativity and flexibility music production - a continual learning journey an awesome hobby #passion #persistence #perspiration #patience is the key & NEVER GIVE UP
 
An accomplished piano accordionist having started at the age of 5 - an instrument I was expected to learn as I was never given the opportunity to learn another instrument properly however in life we sometimes don’t get a choice but I’m grateful to have been given the opportunity to learn an instrument.  I retired the piano accordion a few years ago after being introduced to electronic music production however I occasionally get it out and use my beloved instrument in some productions.

Appreciate a like, repost or comment.  ❤️ 🌈🇦🇺
