You've got to be one of the most soulful artists on Soundcloud. Your songwriting skills are first rate.

You do the acoustic folk thing very well.

Totally different to your other stuff, this is really good, great vocal and you are an excellent lyricist! Greatly Enjoyed!

Here is the New Wackii

kind of Trance mix with Electro to make a BOMB :P

Hope you will like it :)

Lyrics:
Hey, you!
Are you upset?
Please don’t be so sad no, no!
But just be awesome instead

I know that life is hard
Stuff happens all the time
But look around it’s shiny
So why do you cry?

So many places in the world
You need to see
So square your shoulders and stand up
Just come with me

Forget your fears, your pain, your sore  
It was before
Knock, knock! C’mon, please open up!
It’s a new life knocking on your…

Have you ever climbed a mountain?
Let’s climb them all
Have you ever jumped with a parachute?
What are you waiting for?

Have you ever swum in the ocean
Among the sharks?
Have you ever been to Greenland?
That’s not so far

Leave all the things you used to hate
It was all wrong
So square your shoulders right away
And sing my song

Forget your fear, your pain, your sore  
It was before
Knock, knock! C’mon, please open up!
It’s a new life knocking on your…

Please don’t be sad
Please don’t deplore
Please don’t be cruel
Ever no more
Forgive your enemies
Forget your sore
Please, c’mon, open up your

Door!

Have you ever climbed a mountain?
Let’s climb them all
Have you ever jumped with a parachute?
What are you waiting for?

Have you ever swum in the ocean
Among the sharks?
Have you ever been to Greenland?
That’s not so far

Leave all the things you used to hate
It was all wrong
So square your shoulders right away
And sing my song

Forget your fears, your pain, your sore  
It was before
Knock, knock! C’mon, please open up!
It’s a new life knocking on your… door

Acoustic guitar, overdubbed voices and simple percussion. If this seems like a departure, it's the first of many.

Now Is the Only Time 
©2011, Ignatius Zoo

My mother's mother was born in 1924 
She's still around, but she don't know me anymore 
She kinda knows my name back from when I was a kid 
But she seems to think that I should look the way I useta did 
She receives me like a lady, graciously 
I introduce myself each time, she's always pleased to meet 
It's like she is the hostess at a party that never ends 
And every hour, she gets to meet me once again 
Each time 
Each and every single time 
Now is her only time

This time 
Now is her only time 
She doesn't seem to know 
She doesn't seem to mind 
It just doesn't make sense 
It's always present tense 
Each moment is a blend 
Of happy accidents 
Each time 
Each and every single time

Sound the alarm, the library's burning down 
Soon it will be nothing but ashes on the ground 
The air is filled with burning pages of history 
Carried by the wind like crispy autumn leaves 
So high 
They disappear into the sky

As easy as it comes 
That's as easy as it goes 
Where the wheel stops, no one knows 
Make this the only time

In time 
We're going to decline 
We're gonna go blind 
We're gonna lose our minds 
And then we're gonna die 
Make this the only time 
Make this the only time 
Now is the only time 
Now is the only time

This is a song that I have remixed for better balances and production. I hope you all enjoy it. 

I thought it was fitting to post it now since today is Martin Luther King day here in the States. I believe he was and is one of the great people to have graced this earth. If we could just heed his words and work together, this world would be a better place indeed!

Thanks,
Chris

P.S. - The title for this tune was taken from a Walt Whitman poem. 


Lyrics:

Eyes open, shining bright for all 
Look inside, deep within 
And stand tall 

For you will find, we’re all the same 
You and me 
Come along, sing this song 
And fly high 

Chorus: 
Yes we are all greater than the stars and suns 
Yes we are all greater than the stars and suns 

Ears open, listening for the truth 
Ah, you’ve got to join in 
For when the world needs help you can’t deny 
Hear this song 
And fly high 

Chorus: 
Yes … 

Hands open, helping one and all 
Hang on tight, don’t let go 
And stand tall 

Now we know we’re all the same 
You and me 
Come along 
And you will see 

Chorus: 
Yes …

I'm formerly of Polyatomic, based in Toronto. You can find the new Polyatomic album, "Solarium" on iTunes and Amazon. And here's the Polyatomic page for SoundCloud: Polyatomic 
  
Unless a song is tagged "Polyatomic," I did everything, including the lead and backing vocals. (This is not bragging; my voice is the one part of me I'd change if I could.) Most of my songs are made using Propellerheads Reason/Record. I have also used Cakewalk's Kinetic (it's cute) and a bunch of hardware from the late '80's. 
  
Give me a comment if you like what you hear ... and if you don't, give me a comment, please. I'm up for constructive criticism, whether the thumb goes up or down. (Well, ESPECIALLY if it's thumbs-down. Knowing what people DON'T like is really useful.) 
  
I love my Horrible Fan Base [TM]. Please join us.
