Lets Get Money

Never been to Birdland though I’m a big Charlie 'Yardbird' Parker fan. This track, however, is more about the Tweetie variety, they are such a delight, I love listening to their toons. If you have time, I urge you to watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdIoL2YLu7Y . Ghislaine is such a talent, her photos and videos just capture the magic.
  
I’m on my way to Birdland
That’s where I wanna be
Modern day living so unforgiving 
It’s not a place for me

You’re better off in Birdland
It’s so plain to see
Ask the crows coz they all know
Birdland’s the place to be

I just love their beaks
Their feets, their tweets
And they’re so reet petite
So why’re being so thoughtless
Turning up the heat
We’re the pest
Messing up the nest and…
You know the rest  
You know the rest
You know the rest 
  
You’re better off in Birdland
It’s so plain to see
Ask the crows coz they all know
Birdland’s the place to be
Birdland’s the place to be 
Birdland’s the place to be

lyrics:

oh the unquantifiable weight...
the undeniable... wait...
oh irrefutable beauty
of mathematical poetry...

one critical sum in my bed
infinite variables in my head
one critical sum in my bed
infinite variables in my head

soon = |x|
soon = |x|
soon = |x|
soon = |x|

there's no indifference
or uncertainty...
we both know what we want
(can you feel it?)
can you feel the urgency?

one critical sum in my bed
infinite variables in my head
one critical sum in my bed
infinite variables in my head

soon = |x|
soon = |x|
soon = |x|
soon = |x|

Soon

Anywhere out of the  World  - Dead can dance - cover

Whales live enigmatic lives, in that realm impenetrable to our gaze. Small wonder they’ve seemed magical and strange.
Synth, Drum Beat, and Bass Awakening the Electric Guitar into a Melodic Journey. 
All music composed, performed, recorded, produced, and mixed
by James Kevin.

My sister and I wrote this rather jazzy track a few moons ago. Was recently remastered by my lovely Sander. We hope you enjoy this instrumental number full of gorgeous strings from my big sister Jane. 😊🎶❤️🎻

ما هي معاني كلمة البركة

ما يهم في زواج الارثوذكس بغيرهم

لماذا لا يتم تكريم من صلبوا المسيح لانهم تمموا الفداء

did it take some time after 
even as they did play?
did it take some time after 
or was it all just a laughter?
did it not take you by surprise
how my world wells with tears?
just thinking about it 
how the mess begins, darling 
how the mess, the mess begins, darling 

only there in the night 
when it starts to fall 
only there in the night 
do I see my fault 
only there in the night 
incognito deal 
only there in the night 
deliberate deal 
only there in the night 
reaction is served 
only in serving the cause of all causes 
only in serving the cause
does the dust settle 

how long will it take me
only to feel for you?

The Music Video

Smog Part One (video on youtube)

Music is the universal language that speaks to our hearts and souls. It transcends borders and cultures, connecting us on a level that words cannot reach. Music has the power to evoke emotions, bring back memories, and create new ones, moving us in ways that nothing else can. It is truly a magical art form that unites us all.

As a composer, guitarist, multi-instrumentalist, recording, and mixing guru, I am honored to share some original music with the SC community. There are so many talented and gifted artists on this platform! It's always inspiring to discover the different types of music and hidden gems one can stumble upon here. Personally, I enjoy mixing different genres and styles, so perhaps you'll find something here that you enjoy. I look forward to listening to your music too! If you have the time to listen, comment, like, repost, or follow, I will definitely do the same for you.🎸😃🎹🎸
