Bill Champlin/Joseph Williams/Peter Friestedt All Star Band - After The Love Is Gone ( Live )

This is a great song demo written by Chicago's lead singer and bassist, Jason Scheff! He wrote it for one of his biggest fans, Roseanna because she won the Scheffy fitness challenge that he used to have for his fans. Roseanna really accomplished her fitness goals and the song is a great honor of her hard work, dedication and love for Chicago and Jason! 

"Change!" Jason Scheff's Song for Roseanna!

Chicago's Jason Scheff-I'm Always Here-Baywatch Theme!

A demo for a song that Robert Lamm and Jason Scheff are working on for the new Chicago album! Robert sings lead with Jason on chorus! The chorus reminds me of the end of Call on Me and I can't wait to hear the finished version with horns!

Chicago's Robert Lamm and Jason Scheff-Home Demo

this was originally written and recorded to be included on the Stone of Sisyphus album - words and music by Dawayne Bailey and James Pankow. 

Get On This

In the middle
Of a dream
Thought I saw
The sacred love supreme

So beautiful
Yet so obscene
But I'm not sure I'm sleeping

And in a golden sun
I saw Hitler, Elvis and angels
A little baby 
With a big gun
I saw Jesus
Kissing the devil

it's gonna take some time
For me to - get on this
It's gonna take
An angels kiss to
Get on this

When I go to sleep tonight
I must remember to close my eyes

Saw a mother
Take a needle
Burn in water
Drown in flame

A soft spot
For a hard habit
She had a baby 
That had no name

They say a day will come
When a bright light
Shines all around you

The perfect Disney millennium
Where only happiness
Will surround you

(repeat chorus)

The sins of hypocrisy 
Turns the world upside down
Lies in the hearts of children
Destroys their world
Without a sound

And in a full moon sun
I saw a king
Turn angels to ashes
Beside a bonfire in Babylon
Stands an empty house
Full of cages

(repeat chorus)

Get On This
