I read an article the other day where the term " Single use soldier " was used, poorly trained and ill equipped soldiers who are sent to the front line as a distraction whilst the main offensive is being carried out somewhere else, there is only one outcome for these poor boys, what have we become ?
This song is for all the "Single use Soldiers" Maybe a few of them might hear it before its too late. 

Written and performed and produced by :Johnny Mc Farlane

Flowing Lights 2022

Tempting September

So this was going to be a nineties throwback petshop boys style piece. I could never get it right, it's such a nihilistic piece. This is a very rough version, two takes on the piano, and a few takes on the vocal.

Let’s go, just you and I, 
while the world still dreams below the starry sky
Down the lonely street into an empty town 
From our mindless sleep on to Hallowed ground

I always thought there would be time
but i watched it slip away before my eyes
Yet we had time for our goodbyes
Looking out, at the edge of the demise

Without you here, what would I be?
Within your arms, you comfort me
You keep me close, 
you set me free!

It doesn’t end with a whimper or a bang, 
We just slowly fade to black from where we came
It doesn’t end in flood or fire,
It all just simply falls to our desire

will there ever be another?

A Love Song From The End Of The World

IL TE MANQUE LA MER
OUI MAIS TU AS L’AMOUR
IL TE MANQUE TA TERRE
OUI MAIS REGARDE AUTOUR
TU AS L’HOMME QUI T’AIME ET LA MÉLANCOLIE
SE DISSOUT D’ELLE MÊME SI ON LA VOIT JOLIE
MOI AUSSI MON PAYS
ME MANQUE BIEN SOUVENT MAIS L’AMOUR MOI AUSSI EN EMPORTE LE VENT AUTANT
TU VOUDRAIS REPARTIR MAIS TU AIMES RESTER LE PRÉSENT L’AVENIR EMMÊLÉS AU PASSÉ
UNE LARME UN SOURIRE UNE VAGUE UN REGRET ET LE MOT POUR LES DIRE JE SAIS QUE TU LE SAIS MOI AUSSI NEGUINHA PARTAGÉ ENTRE ICI MAINTENANT ET LÀ-BAS HIER ET AUJOURD’HUI SAUDADE
IL TE MANQUE RIO
LE SOLEIL EN HIVER MAIS TU AS PETERZINHO
A BRAS ET CŒUR OUVERTS TU VOUDRAIS REPARTIR MAIS TU AIMES RESTER
LE PRÉSENT L’AVENIR EMMÊLÉS AU PASSÉ
IL TE MANQUE LA MER
OUI MAIS TU AS L’AMOUR
IL TE MANQUE TA TERRE
OUI MAIS REGARDE AUTOUR

I’m happy to post this song with help from my first SC friend https://soundcloud.com/espere-verde, who encouraged me on to improve my music making from a very start. Good musician & draughtsman (he did this artwork too), his vocal performance here gave the mood I couldn’t to the song.

Technical highlights:
>Most vocals: Espere Verde
>Music & almost no vocals: Ruizzoidman
>Odd patterns hidden along three levels in this track: amalgamated psycho-hard coating, usual 7/2 in punk/ska intermediate parts, and finally the sweater core is structured in groups of five measures.

Lyrics: strangely, I wrote about these stressing things when I was 21 and supposedly happy; I'd say similarly today I'm twice as old...

SIN MUJERES NI TABACO, SIN PRISAS  /  WITHOUT WOMEN OR TOBACCO, WITHOUT HURRIES
  
Todo lo que odio me ayuda a vivir,  /  Everything I hate helps me to live,
lo que me pone enfermo me empuja a seguir.  /  what gets me ill pushes me on.
Todo aquello que quiero dejar de sentir  /  Everything I want to stop feeling
es lo que da sentido a mi vivir.  /  is what gives sense to my life.
  
No puedo vivir sin mujeres,  /  I cannot live without women,
ni tabaco, sin prisas,  /  or tobacco, without hurries,
no puedo vivir.  /  I cannot live.
  
Mi ración horaria de tabaco  /  My hourly ration of tobacco
me mata por dentro.  /  kills me from inside.
Mi ración horaria de tabaco  /  My hourly ration of tobacco
me ayuda a vivir.  /  helps me to live.
Mi ración diaria de prisas  /  My daily ration of hurries
me saca los nervios.  /  gets me on my nerves.
Mi ración diaria de prisas  /  My daily ration of hurries
me empuja a seguir.  /  pushes me to continue.
  
Mi ración … de mujeres  /  My … ration of women 
me hace sufrir.  /  makes me suffer.
Mi ración … de mujeres  /  My … ration of women 
me ayuda a vivir.  /  helps me to live.

Sin mujeres ni tabaco, sin prisas (Most vocals by Espere Verde)

Hi, My name is Johnny Mc Farlane, I am an Indie songwriter from Ireland. I write, play, produce and distribute my own music. I try to write songs that will mean something to whoever may be listening. I try to express feeling and emotions through my music, I try to hit the heart and soul of whoever may be listening and to pass on my feelings through my lyrics and my music. A lot of the songs I write come from Personal experiences, some are pure imagination, but all try to carry a message of Hope, Fait, understanding and a spiritual message of love. I am just one voice in the wilderness but together we are stronger. Thank you so much for listening to my music. It’s a real honour.
