lyrics:

strolling down the street i knew so well
when i was a boy and made my way to
school

and the school was closed long time ago
because bleeding us dry nowadays seems to be
cool

we create new dead end towns

goodbye hawk hill lane
i don't miss you
goodbye hawk hill lane
don't let it get you

young people turned their backs on that one way street
and all the factories are rotten but you built a new town
hall

and the color of the town slowly turned into a grey
like the face of a forgotten but the cemetry is pretty
green

a field of broken dreams

goodbye hawk hill lane
i don't miss you
goodbye hawk hill lane
don't let it get you

goodbye hawk hill lane
i don't miss you
goodbye hawk hill lane
you know i still love you
don't let it get you

Torbjørn  sent me a demo of a new track he was working on and asked if I would be interested in collaborating with him.  Over the next few weeks we traded ideas and gradually the track came together.
Many thanks to Torbjørn for giving me complete freedom with my ideas, for trusting me with the final mix and mastering and for providing the excellent painting for the cover art.

Here is ‘Bluey in the Ether’

I wrote this song during the lockdown, imagining how much more difficult things would have been in days gone by, when earlier generations had so very little means of communication. Travelling minstrels would go from town to town and entertain the local people. In my mind, I pictured townsfolk gathering to listen to a minstrel's song, bringing a message of hope, that their future would be brighter, all joining in to sing in candlelight, illuminating the darkness. I hope this song brings some joy in dark times.
LYRICS:
The people gathered round
To hear the minstrel sing
A song to bring them hope
That winter would turn to spring
The frost was biting deep
And the snow had lain so long
So the people gathered round 
To hear the minstrel’s song

The winds of change are coming
Let them hear you sing
The winds of change will turn
Winter into spring

Times may be hard
But somehow we know
That seasons will come
And seasons will go
So together all as one
With voices so strong
People gathered round
To sing the minstrel’s song 

The winds of change are coming
Let them hear you sing
The winds of change will turn
Winter into spring

Their voices all rang out
Out into the night
The magic of a song
Sung by candle light
Watching the flames
Of the candles burn
Waiting …for 
The winds of change to turn

The winds of change are coming
Let them hear you sing
The winds of change will turn
Winter into spring

Lyrics :-
The pink Champaign
The Ritz hotel 
The long black limousine
The caviar
The drug cartel
The honeypot machine 

Can't you see that it's all a lie 
Put in place by the evil eye
And you wonder why you despair 
Why this world isn't ever fair

Westminster 
And Downing Street
The cover up supreme
The Lords that lunch
The Oxbridge bunch 
It's all so damned obscene 

Can't you see that it's all a lie 
Put in place by the evil eye
And you wonder why you despair 
Why this world isn't ever fair

The Crown has fallen off her head
Oh what's the Queen to do ?
Her slaves gather around her bed
Expecting gold and jewels 

Can't you see that it's all a lie 
Put in place by the evil eye
And you wonder why you despair 
Why this world isn't ever fair

The pink Champaign
The Ritz hotel 
The long black limousine
The caviar
The drug cartel
The honeypot machine 

The honeypot machine  YEAH !
The honeypot machine YEAH !

Lyrics Demitri:
I’ll be there
True it makes me happy
When I look at you
Don't mean to be sappy
You make my sky’s turn blue
Pure as the driven snow
I can't let this go
Love like the sun rays shine
So glad to call you mine
I'll be there
Be there when your sad and lonely
I'll be there
Be there when you're cold and tired
I'll be there
Honey you can hold your head up
I’ll be there
Honey never let you go
Never let you go
I'll be there

Lyrics

Verse 1
I don’t see a way you could find it here….

refrain
You got the sunlight on your skin
You’re looking for a win
Nothing heals your sin
Babe it’s time to go
Babe it’s time to go
You know it’s time to go
Again

Verse 2
See the rain
on the window
Crashing down again
Three miles from where we began…

refrain
You got the sunlight on your skin
You’re looking for a win
Nothing heals your sin

Babe it’s time to go
Babe it’s time to go
You know it’s time to go
Again

Verse 3
Well the rain keeps falling down
Nothing left to see in this old town
So much sin bringing us to the ground……

Refrain
You got the sunlight on your skin
You’re looking for a win
Nothing heals your sin

Babe it’s time to go
Babe it’s time to go
You know it’s time to go
Again

Outro
I see the sunlight now
I see the sunlight now
I feel the sunlight on my skin

Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, Well I Know
Well I know
I feel the sunlight on my skin
Well I know
There’s something happening here

Sunlight for your sins
