really like the light-hearted notes (what is that)?

bad enough to be an artist and lay there alone ...but to miss someone and wonder and want ...could really feel with what you got going on here ...really wonderful my friend

Beautiful song! Love the acoustic guitar and the relatable sense of longing really hits home. This sound reminds me a little of The Cure too which is a wonderful thing :)

sweet song Johnny. Great production. Sleepless nights and restless days.

Love the song and the emotion. Great track. 👏👍

P.O.E.T.

Serpentine

A bit late,but best wishes to y'all. 

I hope this is a good year
I hope for me and you
I hope for warmth and good cheer
In twenty twentytwo

I'll raise a glass,here's to you all
Together we can do
Before our final curtain call
Let live twenty twentytwo

May your time be ever golden
May you see your trouble through
May you never be beholden
In twenty twentytwo

Remember what we took for granted
Remember what we thought was free
Isolated disenchanted
Life has no guarantee

Here's to all the tired and weary
I wish the best for you
A year that's not so dreary
In twenty twentytwo

(Twenty) 22

Broken open
The pages unglued
Celebrate - humility
Nobody's ever really lonely

Mixing with any
and all I could find
Starting with my own crowd
Here are our shoes 
count them
Here in our alley
count them
Nobody's ever really lonely

I've broken open my head
to fit you all inside
But I won't wait
I can't hesitate
Predators lurk around me
Because nobody's ever really lonely

Passed out
Fashioned in a kingly fashion
I kick out the goons 
and kick on energy raving tunes
So nobody's ever really lonely

How do you feel - (Do you?)
Are you real? - (Are you?)
Can I leave you - (I will)
Can I have you - (I do)

BUT THE KIDS ARE CRYING

Daddy 
Daddy...

Why did you call me back? 
When I said I was leaving, later today?

Still don't love ya
Still don't love ya
Still don't love ya

Why did you call me back? 
When I said I was leaving, later today?

But The Kids Are Crying

This one wrote itself late one night........my fav time to write a tune

Just Like The Night

A caring message from a concerned human

Now that our leaders are working on world war 3
I'd like to share

Something I think I see

This isn't a protest
Or a call to arms

Just some friendly words 
For the righteous
The marginalized
The straight and queer

And I know you're not asking

I see now
The only thing that moves us
People

Is fear
And threat

If a bomb drops in some faraway land
Does it make a sound?

So here we go

When you step out at night
Under the cold starlight

Look out!
Look out!

Achtung!
Fais attention!
Look out! Look out!

You don't know what's gonna fall out of the sky
Might be a satellite 
It might be a nuclear missile
It might be drone fire
It might just be some smog in the air
Or Covid 19
Be careful when you breath!

Xiao Xing!
Xiao
Xing!
Look out! Look out!

(look out)

Your children are sleeping quietly
But you know better
You know what might be coming

(look out) (look out)

The whole world's awake now
Our eyes are open now

(Take care everyone)
(Peace)

Hard times, I hope you will forgive the lightness of touch. A big thank you to three magnificent earthlings who allow me to keep dreaming: https://soundcloud.com/janinelevinson, https://soundcloud.com/jonathan_beckenstein and Yaron Engler.

Rocket fuel regular
Or rocket fuel light?
Said the Venusian
He was ever so polite

She said, give me regular
And lit a cigar
He knew straight away
That this girl was from Mars

No smoking in here
You’ll blow us all up
She said, give me ya phone number
And I might look you up

He went red
She remained green
Coz Martians and Venusians
Are like meat with ice cream

Meat with Ice Cream
Meat with Ice Cream

He went red
She remained green
But when you think about it
What’s wrong with meat with ice cream

He gave her his number
That’s  what they did
She gave hime a wink
And he fluttered his lids

Meat with Ice Cream
Meat with Ice Cream
He gave her his number
And a little while later they had green and red kids

Meat with Ice Cream
Meat with Ice Cream
Meat with Ice Cream
You know what I mean

Meat With Ice Cream

Meat With Ice Cream (feat. Janine Levinson & Jonathan Beckenstein)

I wanted to create a mystical atmosphere in this song. Its a place i am sure we all have been at some time in our lives, a lonely place where we miss the one we love or have loved ..ill leave it up to your imagination hope you love the song.

Sleepless Nights

Lyrics from A Journal of Nonsense by Clay Young & Becky Coleman

Werepossum

The backing is a layered series of experiments in creating textures, primarily using the Noire piano. Helen then improvised a vocal performance we might describe as a dreamlike stream of ideas and motifs. After some initial hesitancy wondering what it was we were creating, we decided we rather liked the end result and thought we'd share it to the cloud.

I am a singer songwriter from Ireland. i love Blues and Rock but as you will see from my song writing i am not stuck in any one musical Genre and i like 
 to experiment with music and try different things. I am really knocked out with the amount of Talented people here on SoundCloud and it a great pleasure to be part of this musical community. Its a great journey. Thanks for listening to my music. 

I am part of a Just for fun band called " No Killie Fish" its a collection of like minded musicians and we play for Fun.
