Old Textures

“I was unsure about my next song to create and so my wife suggested writing something in the style of The Mamas & The Papas, which I thought was a fantastic idea. A further suggestion by my wife was added; to include the words “Give Love, Get Love”, which was written on my tea bag string (pictured). This was an even better idea and now a fun challenge. With that, this song was written. 

This is a song about giving yourself to life - that we are simply salt floating in the sea; stardust in the universe - to not resist and to embrace every moment. 

I really love the 60’s Woodstock camp fire feel to this song and I enjoyed trying to emulate the sounds/panning of the incredible “California Dreamin’”. I think the electro/synth-pop inspired vocal processing adds a nice modern twist. I hope you enjoy this one”

A song about the universe - “The Salt And The Sea”.

We are the salt and the sea
I drift with you and you carry me
So happy? 
In love? 
Everyone has a story 
Yes, we are the salt and the sea

You’ve got to give love to get love
You’ve got to lose yourself to win it all and be free
This bubble of ours is like living on Mars
We can see the twilight and stars from the sea

Souls Apart

Put on my blue suede shoes
And I boarded the plane
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
In the middle of the pouring rain
W.C. Handy, won't you look down over me?
Yeah, I got a first class ticket
But I'm as blue as a boy can be
Then I'm walking in Memphis
Was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale
Walking in Memphis
But do I really feel the way I feel?
Saw the ghost of Elvis
On Union Avenue
Followed him up to the gates of Graceland
Then I watched him walk right through
Now security they did not see him
They just hovered 'round his tomb
But there's a pretty little thing
Waiting for the King
Down in the Jungle Room
When I was walking in Memphis
I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale
Walking in Memphis
But do I really feel the way I feel?
They've got catfish on the table
They've got gospel in the air
And Reverend Green be glad to see you
When you haven't got a prayer
But, boy, you've got a prayer in Memphis
Now Muriel plays piano
Every Friday at the Hollywood
And they brought me down to see her
And they asked me if I would
Do a little number
And I sang with all my might
She said
"Tell me are you a Christian child?"
And I said "Ma'am, I am tonight"
Walking in Memphis
(Walking in Memphis)
Was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale
Walking in Memphis
(Walking in Memphis)
But do I really feel the way I feel?
Walking in Memphis
(Walking in Memphis)
I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale
Walking in Memphis
(Walking in Memphis)
But do I really feel the way I feel?
Put on my blue suede shoes
And I boarded the plane
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
In the middle of the pouring rain
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
In the middle of the pouring rain

Before The Devil Knows Your Name! (basic demo)

Thought I'd sneak in a little track before the year is out. I have not been very active on Soundcloud this year, will endeavour to start writing again in the new year, and listen to all the talent that is out there! 

Happy hols

(a.k.a. burn-it-smith)

p.s. Such rhythm in these lyrics, something I have always admired about this artist.

You Never Can Tell (Cover)

Hey… Happy December wherever you are. This is an early winter song, with a hint of cabin fever going on. Luckily, I still have my sense of humor, although not much to say right now, as… well you live on this planet too. Aren’t we having fun these days? Thanks for dropping by, Mark

What's This Song About Anyway?

Lyrics:
Take'em out of their shell,
Break'em out if you will.
Run'em down the old hill,
Do with'em what you will.
As you watch them roll,
I hope you find a soul.
Somewhere on that pole,
It sure is getting cold.
Out with the old, Out with the old.
You should know to talk loud,
Wonder if you'd help out.
Oh what's the use?
You're impaired and obtuse.
As you watch it fall down,
Tell me what have you found?
Is there anything real?
Tell me what's the appeal? 
Out with the old, out with the old.
When will you see? 
I don't hear thee.
Break out, break free, 
come on it's easy.
Push hard you can, break through.
I've seen you do this more than once before.
I know you never meant, (to come back.)
Not to be here present, (You forget.)
Out with the old, (In with the New)
In with the New.

Out With The Old

What Have I Done Wrong Now feat SilverBella

Two short improvisations for this track....

LAST DRINK CLUB.

I Wanna Feel We're Just Like One

I wish that I could meet the crowd 
and feel that feeling once again 
I wish one day the business man
could join us to be as one
I want to spend a lot of time
in the land where there's no pain

I wanna feel we're just like one
I wanna feel we're just like one
I wanna feel we're just like one
I wanna feel we're just like one
I wanna feel we're just like one
I wanna feel we're just like one

I wish that I could meet the crowd 
and feel that feeling once again 
I wish one day I would not need
to exchange my time just for cash
I'm just feeling I'm part of a being
who exploded into infinite grains

I wanna feel we're just like one
I wanna feel we're just like one
I wanna feel we're just like one
I wanna feel we're just like one
I wanna feel we're just like one
I wanna feel we're just like one

I Wanna Feel We're Just Like One

First song Annie ever wrote, and its about yours truly...... (no really I am as great as mt Bendigo!)

EASIER THAN LOVE         

2020 Janine Levinson 

There are simpler things In life than love
Like a blue sky calling when you're waking up
Or a flower when it opens from a bud 
Easier and prettier than love

It's simpler to enjoy a walk outside
Or taste a piece of fruit that sweet and ripe
But try explaining why we stay to fight
There's something here that just won't be denied

It's love making us irrational
It's love turns us into criminals
It's love that makes us act like animals
It's love.  it's indefensible.

There are smarter things for hearts to do than love
Like keeping time and pumping us with blood
If we dare to let our hearts dip into feeling 
As quicksand, we are pulled into the mud

It's love making things impossible
It's love and sometimes it feels terrible
But only love can make us feel so wonderful
It's love, and it's unbearable

It's not the same for everyone
It's one day pain and one day fun
But its been the same since time began
A paradox we're driven to
It's like a counterclockwise screw
We fall in love and it can't be undone, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

There are simpler things In life than love
Like a clear day, blue sky hovering above
Or a flower when it opens from a bud ....
Prettier and easier than love
