Great lyrics. At some point there will HAVE to be massive systemic change. These effects are cumulative over generations. Even the super-rich who have all the power will surely realise that even their gigantic wealth can't protect them.

Another great song Joe! We can all use a drink! I feel like we're on the Titanic! Great lyrics as usual! You're a poet and don't know it!👍😎✌🏼

Great beat👏👏 Great work👏👏👏

great sound, truth in the words, catchy tune!

serious message but with a certain humour

I love the background vocals and piano Joe. Your humor is much appreciated too!

Love the harmony vocals! Another great track Joe.

Our tribute to the Australian Gothic Metal band of the same name Virgin Black! Amazing combination of orchestras, vocals and gothic metal.👍

Lyrics:
.
When you need me - far away
Say my name I'll be there today
I hope you know it's with Gods I play
Open your eyes it's a blissful game
. 
(oh)
.
Time together, time we share
Nothing to do but be aware
Hope you see how much I care
Open you eyes and take me there. 
. 
(oh)
.
Focus! Focus!
Focus! Focus! 
Focus! Focus! 
Love is in the air! 
.
Focus! Focus!
Focus! Focus! 
Focus! Focus! 
Love is in the air!
.

Blissful Game (2023)

Purple

We’re teetering on the brink
I could really use a drink
I can’t help but think
That the ship is starting to sink

They that we’re running out of natural resources
We gotta go out and find ourselves some brand new sources
They say that we’re not goanna find them here on good old planet earth
We gotta go out in to the solar system and dig for all it’s worth

People out there living their lives 
They’re not worried at all
They think you’re just a chicken little 
saying that the sky’s goanna fall

We’re teetering on the brink
I could really use a drink
I can’t help but think
That the ship is starting to sink

Elon Musk wants to colonize Mars and make the human race multiplanetary
But the way those rockets keep blowing up makes that trip seem pretty scary

We feed our cow’s chicken poop and we’re  surprised when they catch bird flu
And when there’s virus in the milk they say that shouldn’t worry you
They say that steak tastes better if you feed the cattle a corn or grass diet
But they don’t advertise  poop fed beef they keep that part very quiet

Too much atmospheric CO2
Pesticides in everything we chew
Forever chemicals in H20
We need to make changes but 
We move too slow

We’re teetering on the brink
I could really use a drink
It feels like we’re on the Titanic
But we’re all to busy to panic
We’re teetering on the brink
I could really use a drink
I can’t help but think
That The ship is starting to sink

Teetering On The Brink

Misk - 108

Many thanks to Frank Mehl, who worked over my AI generated version of this song, so it got even more beauty.
Lyrics:
[Verse] In a land of dreams Where the moonlight gleams There's a fairy creature With mystical themes With a voice so pure And a heart so bright She sings her song To create a new light [Verse 2] With every note The stars align As she weaves her magic In a rhythm divine Her melody floats In the soft night air Creating a world Beyond compare [Chorus] Her song soars Like a gentle breeze Unveiling a realm Where dreams find peace With each sweet word Her power unfurls The fairy creature Who creates new worlds

Lasso My Heart

Songs with a twinge of humor (and some a bit more serious).  
I do not use AI to create my songs. 
Recently I have had the urge to pick up my guitars (Taylor 114ce and Fender Squire) and I have been trying to use more guitar in my songs.  
My go to .vst plug ins are  EZkeys 2, EZ Bass and  EZ drummer 3) and my DAW is Logic Pro 11. 
I welcome your comments and enjoy listening to all the great music on SoundCloud.
