So beautiful and elegant! The best collab!!

Fabulous!! I feel like I am watching a West End show!!

Extraordinary piano, Janny. And you did a stunning job building with Jon's vocals. It's quite magical. :D

Wonderfully played and poignantly realized. Well done, my friend. :)

Great work ... again! Yes, this is a beautiful theme! Carlos Santana also made a great version.

Feel like in a old classic jazz club, beautiful Janny!

LYRICS:

In all my travels
Through this world
Things I've seen 
With my own eyes
What is ever
As it seems
How much of it all ...... is lies

My eyes are open
But do I see
My ears are listening
But do I hear
My body senses 
But do I feel
How will time change
What now seems real

We never got to say goodbye
But one thing that I know
You are in my head and heart
No matter where I go

Look to the heavens 
A burning star
Seems so near
And yet so far
At the dawn 
Of another day
A new horizon
Shows the way

We never got to say goodbye
But one thing that I know
You are in my head and heart
No matter where I go

Some Day Soon

With My Own Eyes

I present for you a very loose adaptation of the wonderful "Gone With The Wind" . Written in 1937 by Allie Rubel and possibly related to the Margret Mitchell novel. It has been covered many times by many great artists, including the great Bill Evans. The most successful version was by the wonderful Jazz guitarist Wes Montgomery on 1960. 

Written by Allie Wrubel, the lyrics by Herb Magidson

Enjoy XX

                                Gone With The Wind

Gone With the Wind
Just like a leaf that has flown away
Gone with the wind
My romance has blown away
Yesterday's kisses are still on my lips,
I've had a lifetime of heaven at my fingertips.
But now all-all is gone.
Gone is the rapture that fills my heart
Gone with the Wind
My romance has flown apart
Just like a flame
Love burned brightly, then became
An empty smoke ring that has gone,
Gone with the Wind.
Gone, gone, gone with the wind
Just like a leaf that has flown away
Gone with the wind
My romance has flown away
Yesterday's kisses are still, still on my lips,
I've had a lifetime of heaven at my fingertips.
But now all-all is gone.
Gone is the rapture that fills my heart
Gone with the Wind
My romance has flown apart
Just like a flame
Love burned brightly, then became
An empty smoke ring that has
Gone with the Wind.
Gone with the Wind

Old Man River (feat Pollenfax)

I present for you "Autumn in New York" . Probably one of the most covered jazz standards ever and still such a beautiful piece.
It was composed by Vernon Duke in 1934 for the Broadway musical “Thumbs Up!”, which opened on December 27, 1934, performed by J. Harold Murray. 
Just me and the Piano ... :)

Autumn In New York

Pause for a moment and relax........

This time it is J.S.Bach's Prelude No.1 which was adapted in 1853
by Charles Gounod into what is commonly called "Ave Maria". Now adapted by me .

Sometimes the life  is like a movie. Time goes fast, everything is changing and we forget a lot of important things in our life that we lose forever :)

The Forgotten Love

The stars are out one by one
The sun is set, his work is done
We stroll along this empty street
We write our story with out feet

Every time we fall in love
Every time we try to feel life
I in all its harmony
Every time we fall in love
Every time we heal the heartaches  
We do it gradually

Night spills our secrets one by one
Our inhibitions are all but gone
So take your arms and put them 'round
'Cause in your arms I feel unbound

Every time we fall in love
Every time we try to feel life
I in all its harmony
Every time we fall in love
Every time we heal the heartaches  
We do it gradually

The Answer

One By One

Lyrics (Translated below):

Jag är den jag är
trasig rädd till besvär
livet hårt och skört
kommer aldrig bli som förut

du vill ej
du vill inte ha 
du vill inte ha mej där
vill inte ha
du vill inte ta på mej mer

du kunde aldrig fullt lita på mej
det verkar aldrig ordna sej
allt fokus blev så skevt
och allt fint vi två upplevt

du vill ej
du vill inte ha 
du vill inte ha mej där
vill inte ha
du vill inte ta på mej mer

du vill ej
du vill inte ha 
du vill inte ha mej där
vill inte ha
du vill inte ta på mej mer
du vill ej
du vill inte kämpa
du vill inte kämpa mer
Jag vill inte längta
vill inte sakna
dej nå mer


GOOGLE TRANSLATION:
I am who I am
broken afraid Im trouble
life hard and fragile
it will never be the same as before

you do not want
you do not want
you do not want me there
you do not want
you do not want to touch me anymore

you could never really trust me
it never seems to work out
all focus became so skewed
and everything nice we two experienced

you do not want
you do not want
you do not want me there
you do not want
you do not want to touch me anymore

you do not want
you do not want
you do not want me there
you do not want
you do not want to touch me anymore
you do not want
you do not want to fight
you do not want to fight anymore
I do not want to long
do not want to miss
you any more

Du vill inte..

Snowfield Poetry

Lovely to write at my real piano for this one...😊🎹❤️🎧🎤🎵
Thank you Sander for another lovely mastering job. You’re the best...😉❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Don’t know whether to sink or swim
So I’ll just keep floating
Don’t know if I’ll say a prayer
In the hopes you might appear

You can soften the blow
Don’t make me watch you go
Let me down so gently
Soften the blow...

Don’t know whether to laugh or cry
Memories keep drifting by
Don’t know if I’ll say a prayer
In the hopes that you’ll appear

You can soften this blow
Can’t watch you go
Lay me down so gently
Soften the blow...

Soften the blow (acoustic piano)
