4 Star Commended Entry in the 2021 UK Songwriting Contest

I'd been reading Bob Dylan's 'Chronicles - Volume One' when I wrote this. I think Bob crept into the song - 'you go your way I'll go mine'. I had the microphone really close to the acoustic guitar when recording this, which produced the unintentional but interesting percussive sound of the plectrum on the strings.

Shattered Promises and broken dreams, they say that nothing's as bad as it seems,
I'd like to believe that the worst isn't true but looking in the mirror I'm not sure that I do,
Shattered promises and a broken heart, everything that's happened has upset the apple cart,
Every action has unforeseen consequences, the decisions that you've made have played havoc with my senses,

So you've left me now, there'll be no coming back,
You've made your plans, you can walk your lonely track,

Shattered promises and a broken spirit, didn't you even stop and think about it for a minute,
You may think you've left me floating high and dry, one day you might reconsider and then you'll wonder why,
Shattered promises and a broken deal, how long do you think this will take to heal,
You go your way and I'll go mine, I'm actually going nowhere so you can take your time,

From where I'm standing, I hope that you can see,
Whatever you thought you'd done, I'll not let it get to me,

Shattered promises and a broken past, the harm you've done to me, it won't last,
The future's bright, as some might say, we go on from where we are, tomorrow's another day,
Shattered Promises and broken dreams, nothing in life is ever what it seems,
I'd like to believe that the worst isn't true; I'm looking in the mirror but so, so are you,
I'm looking in the mirror but so, so are you.

Make Love Right Now

letterkenny a spin ladd

This song was written by Chuck Berry while in prison and was recorded
in 1964.  This " poor boy" traveled across dozen states by bus, train and
plane to get to his promise land (California).  It was also recorded by
Elvis Presley .  Remember, Paul Revere and the Raiders, Freddy Weller,
had a hit with it also.  Louisiana's own Johnny Allen also had a hit with
it here in cajun land.  Having a little fun with this one.

Promise Land ( Cover of Chuck Berry )

Fairly simple song I wrote quite quickly (quickly for me anyway) with added attempted enlivening of final chorus by means of cod-orchestrals. 
---

I want another cup of coffee but I've had too much already
I get caught up in the details and then I feel a bit unsteady
So I'm staring through the window at the people out at lunchtime
In the sunshine

I dreamt I went to heaven on the train
Oh they've got canapes and badges where you write your name and I
Sat next to an angel
We got into conversation
I got caught up in the details
And I missed my destination

I thought I knew just what I wanted but I did not know my nature
You get caught up in the details and then it's five years later
And when you told me that you loved me well I know at first you meant it
(I know you really meant it)

[Repeat chorus]

Can't be ordinary and also extraordinary
I'm tying not to be someone who's going to let you down

[Repeat first verse]

Think I'm gonna go out in the sunshine

[Repeat chorus]

FEELING FORGOTTEN,			
SICK AND DOWNTRODDEN			
DOWN IN THE VALLEY			
NOT ABLE TO SEE FAMILY			
FACE TIME WAS NOT

DOWN IN THE VALLEY			
SOME WERE PRAYING			
SOME  LOST ALL HOPE			
MANY ARE STILL CRYING

GOOD THINGS CAN HAPPEN

DON'T FEEL DOWN AND ALONE			
JUST CALL OUT HIS NAME			
THE ONE WHO OWNS THE CROWN AND THRONE

So much talent from my part of the country (SW Louisiana, SE Texas) George Jones, Tracy Byrd, Mark Chesnutt, George Straight, Janis Joplin, Edgar Winters and the list goes on.  Tracy Lawrence sang with a Louisiana based band in 1988-1990.  He was shot 4 times by robbers in may 1991 which delayed his first album Sticks and Stones.  He was named top new male country vocalist in 1993.  He continues to create great music.  Just one of my favorite Tracy Lawrence songs.

COLD SWEAT

In a cold cold sweat
Can’t get any sleep
In a cold cold sweat 
Feelings running too deep

On the streets of ancient gods
Hit a red light, see a Greek memory
Push the gas, see the ghosts of ambition
It’s an avalanche only in your mind

Did you finish
Did you even start 
Do you have the time
Can you see the line
Do you even need it
Does anybody give or care

Home again there’s good and there’s bad
What a day will it ever get better
You think you did all that you could
Still feels like less than you should

You find yourself in a wet shirt
Can’t remember if you’re young or old
It’s a hot night and still you’re cold
Not the first time or the last time
Not the last time

It’s a cold cold sweat
Can’t get any sleep
It’s a cold cold sweat 
Feelings running too deep
It’s a cold cold sweat
It’s a cold cold sweat
Feelings running too deep

Days gone by you did the right thing
A great success admired by all
Sometimes you even forget
Sometimes
 
Sweet life no ifs and buts
Fall asleep in a star studded dream
A night like so many others
Not the first time, not the last time 
Not the last time

I can’t shake this cold sweat
I can’t shake this cold sweat

Cold Sweat

Six Feet Never Felt So Far. By Glenny G November 8th 2021
SIX FEET NEVER FELT SO FAR
I RIDE ALONE IN MY CAR
I LOOK TOWARDS A DISTANT STAR
WONDER IF THERE'S LIFE ON MARS
WENT TO FISH MY FAVORITE LAKE
WHEN THE GROUND BEGAN TO SHAKE
I'VE NEVER FELT A REAL EARTHQUAKE
AM I ASLEEP OR AM I AWAKE
I CAN'T DENY IT I SEE THE SIGNS
AS THE SUMMER FRUIT ROTS ON THE VINE
NOW THEY SAY THERE'S CLIMATE CHANGE
STORMS AND FIRES HAVE MANY NAMES
WE STILL DON'T KNOW WHO'S TO BLAME
LIFE ON EARTH IS NOT THE SAME
THE WILDLIFE DISAPEARS
WE NEVER SHED A SINGLE TEAR
WE JUST BURN OUT ANOTHER YEAR
THEN LOOK OURSELVES IN THE MIRROR
BUT THERE'S A GOOD LIFE STILL AHEAD
I'M STILL BREATHING AND GODS NOT DEAD
GODS NOT DEAD NO GODS NOT DEAD 
SOLO/CHORUS
THERE SEEMS TO BE TWO DIFFERENT TRIBES
WE'RE CUT IN HALF AND THEN DIVIDE
ALL ALONG IT DON'T SEEM RIGHT
SIX FEET APART NO END IN SIGHT

Six Feet Never Felt So Far (Original) With Lyrics

I was in love with West Side Story from age 5 on. 
This is a free interpretation of Somewhere.

Original soundtrack from West Side Story written by Leonard Bernstein, lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. 

Edit: I am so sad Stephen Sondheim died a few days after this release. So I declare this interpretation as my tribute to him. Thank you so much for your everlasting romantic poetry Mr. Sondheim. Rest in peace. 

Vocals and backings created and recorded by Neli CoKo.

TRUMP@D & Hiber-Nation - Chimneys

Bob Seger once told the New York Times that "Like A Rock was inspired partly by the end of a relationship that had lasted for 11 years. You wonder where all that time went? But beyond that, it expresses my feeling that the best years of my life may have been in my late teens with no special commitments and no career". This iconic tune was used in an advertising campaign for Chevrolet trucks that ran from 1991 - 2004, making it indelibly associated with the vehicles. The song helped sell a lot of Silverados, and is considered one of the best choices for an ad campaign in The History of Music. 'Like a Rock' was the Title song from the thirteenth studio album of same name by American singer-songwriter Bob Seger, released in 1986. My own version humbly presented here with all due respect and appreciation for yet another Bob Seger Sparkly Gem. Did it in my own way, featuring Nylon Strings and Tele Tones floating around in the background.
"Like A Rock"
Bog Seger 
Stood there boldly
Sweatin' in the sun
Felt like a million
Felt like number one
The height of summer
I'd never felt that strong
Like a rock
I was eighteen
Didn't have a care
Working for peanuts
Not a dime to spare
But I was lean and
Solid everywhere
Like a rock
My hands were steady
My eyes were clear and bright
My walk had purpose
My steps were quick and light
And I held firmly
To what I felt was right
Like a rock
Like a rock
I was strong as I could be
Like a rock
Nothin' ever got to me
Like a rock
I was something to see
Like a rock
And I stood arrow-straight
Unencumbered by the weight
Of all these hustlers and their schemes
I stood proud, I stood tall
High above it all
I still believed in my dreams
Twenty years now
Where'd they go?
Twenty years
I don't know
I sit and I wonder sometimes
Where they've gone
And sometimes late at night
Oh, when I'm bathed in the firelight
The moon comes callin' a ghostly white
And I recall
I recall
Like a rock
Standin' arrow-straight
Like a rock
Chargin' from the gate
Like a rock
Carryin' the weight
Like a rock
Like a rock
The sun upon my skin
Like a rock
Hard against the wind
Like a rock
I see myself again
Like a rock
Oh, like a rock!

Rock of Ages - Like a Rock Version

Like A Rock - Version

Synesthesia is main motif for this song, first because of original lyrics, then as I felt like adding it more flavor with female vocals*, & finally when I recently watched some paintings about this matter**.

*Great vocal performance by https://soundcloud.com/maraoldfield is most notorious matter in this piece, where riffing parts toggle with bass-guided proggy ones.

**Due credits to https://soundcloud.com/wouwouandthewormling for ad hoc painting of the song’s artwork.

Letra  /  Lyrics:

QUIERO SABER SI HACE CALOR  /  I WANT TO KNOW IF IT IS HOT

En verano, insoportable,  /  In summer, unbearable,
todo está lleno de ruido.  /  everything is full of noise.
El invierno, silencioso,  /  The winter, silent,
que congela los sonidos.  /  which freezes the sounds.

No quisiera quedarme sorda  /  I don’t want to get deaf
sin saber cuándo hace frío.  /  not  knowing when it’s cold. 
No quisiera quedarme sorda  /  I don’t want to get deaf
para saber si hace frío.  /  so as to know if it’s cold.

Los días soleados  /  Sunny days
acompañan al estío  /  go along with the summer
y cuando llega el invierno  /  and when the winter comes
el cielo está oscurecido.  /  the sky is darkened.

No quisiera quedarme ciega  /  I don’t want to get blind
sin saber cuándo hace frío.  /  not  knowing when it’s cold.
No quisiera quedarme ciega  /  I don’t want to get blind
para saber si hace frío.  /  so as to know if it’s cold.

Blood Honey

Original Lyrics by Tony Harris
Vocal / Harmony and Mix by DLynn
Music Production by PJ Projects

SHE GREW UP IN A VERY SMALL HOUSE	
IN A LITTLE TOWN CALLED PEPPER TOWN	
HER MAMA WORKED AT THE LOCAL COFFEE HOUSE	
HER DADDY'S FACTORY WAS SHUTTING DOWN	
	
YES, TIMES WERE HARD IN PEPPER TOWN	
JOBS WERE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN	
HE DIDN'T LET IT GET HIM DOWN	
HIS FAITH WAS ON THINGS UNSEEN	
	
CHORUS	
PEPPER TOWN SEEMS SO FAR AWAY NOW	
SHE'S GOING BACK SOME DAY SOME HOW	
THE MEMORIES STILL LIVE ON	
PEPPER TOWN WILL ALWAYS BE HOME	
YEA, PEPPER TOWN WILL ALWAYS BE HOME	
	
THEY ALWAYS HAD PLENTY TO EAT	
AND A ROOF OVER THEIR HEAD	
ALWAYS A WARM PLACE TO SLEEP	
JUST COULDN’T GET AHEAD	
	
SAID I'M LEAVING THIS PLACE SOMEDAY	
NOTHING FOR ME IN THIS SMALL TOWN	
SHE PACKED HER BAGS HEADED TO LA	
SHE WAS CALIFORNIA BOUND	
	
(REPEAT CHORUS)	
	
THE STARS DON'T ALWAYS ALIGN	
NOT EVERY STAR IS LIT	
THE SUN DOESN'T ALWAYS SHINE	
NOT EVERYONE MAKES IT	
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA	
IS FULL OF DRAMA	
ONLY WAY TO FIND GOLD	
IS TO SELL YOUR SOUL	
	
(REPEAT CHORUS)

Hell To Pay

The Devil is in the details of our lives
He found his way through the emptiness of lies
A broken promise is a way of life
Using power like a switchblade knife
There's gonna be hell to pay
That's right

(Chorus)
Dah dah Da Dah Dah
DaDah  Dah Dah Dah
Da Dah dah da Dah
Da dah da dah dah
That's Right.
Dah dah Da Dah Dah
Da Dah  Dah Dah Dah
Duh Dah dah da Dah
Da dah da dah dah

I want to see you go on your way
Distractions only weigh me down
I can't believe the anger you've sown
Divided we fall under fools and crown

Chorus

So he don't give give a damn 
Who's life is on the line
His self respect is cheaper than his time
He lies and cheats
He's guilty as sin
He gives us dirty business
And nothing to win
It's always someone else
It's this game he plays
He cries like a baby
Til he gets his way
Cooking up schemes
The world is his kitchen
Doesn't have the answers 
And there's surely no question
There's gonna be hell to pay
That's right.

Hell To Pay

My baby’s got a hold on me 
My baby’s got a hold on me
My baby has a hold on me
My baby’s got a hold on me

Don’t understand the fascination
I’m in the thrall like some fascist nation

Oh my baby’s got a hold on me 
My baby’s got a hold on me
My baby’s got a hold on me
My baby’s got a hold on me

Come on now don’t you start to shaking
You’ll send my soul into constant quaking

Like the roots of the big oak tree
You’ve grown so deep inside of me

And you are my pretty thing
And you are my pretty thing

My baby’s got a hold on me 
My baby’s got a hold on me
My baby’s got a hold on me
My baby’s got a hold on me

What I was has crawled away
Beaten and forgotten in some alleyway

Like the roots of a big oak tree
You’ve grown so deep inside of me

And you are my pretty thing
And you are my pretty thing

My Pretty Thing

I grew up listening to country music along with early Rock & Roll. Chuck
Berry was nicknamed "Father of Rock & Roll.  With such songs as
Maybellene, Roll Over Beethoven, Rock & Roll Music and Johnny B. Goode he topped the charts in the 1950's.  Every guitar player of my
generation played or tried to play Johnny B Goode.  He died March 18, 2017. No one does it like Chuck Berry, so I decided to do my version of Nadine as a tribute to the man.  Thanks

Nadine  ( Cover - Chuck Berry)

A special song about my Dad. (a tribute to John Prine's style of music)
Lyrics by Tony Harris that inspired Lizzie 
Vocal & Music by my friend Lizzie Taypen

I WOKE UP EVERY MORNIN'
TO THE SOUND OF HIM PLAYIN'
HIS OLD HARP IN THE KEY OF "C"
A GREAT MEMORY FOR ME

THEN HE WAS READY TO START HIS DAY
GRABBED HIS LUNCH...WAS ON HIS WAY
ALWAYS ARIVING EARLY AT THE JOB SITE
CAUSE BEIN' LATE WOULD NOT BE RIGHT

(CHORUS)
MY DADDY WAS A CARPENTER
HE LOVED DRIVIN' THEM NAILS
A SMALL TIME CONTRACTOR
ALWAYS FOCUSED ON DETAILS
NO AIR TOOLS BACK THEN
TO HIM…IT WAS A SIN
IF YOU DIDN'T USE A HAMMER

HIS WORK DAY'S...THEY WERE LONG
FILLED WITH HARD WORK AND SWEAT
NOW DON'T GET ME WRONG
MY DAD HAD NO REGRETS

HE LEARNED HIS TRADE
IN THE ARMY DURING THE WAR
WORE OUT MANY A SAW BLADE
AND HUNG MANY A DOOR

(REPEAT CHORUS)

ON SUNDAY WE WERE ALWAYS GOIN'
TO THE COUNTRY CHURCH NEXT DOOR
HIS BIBLE, HE WAS ALWAYS READIN'
DIDN'T WANT TO BE THE MAN HE WAS BEFORE

(REPEAT CHORUS)

How Far We've Come

Music of God  - Words & Music: Pravinand Maharaj

Take the ring from my finger
The shirt off my back
You say you want everything I have
Take the food from my table
And all that you need
Just leave the music of God in me

Take the chair that I sit on
The books on my shelf
Whatever you see help yourself
Take the flowers from the garden
And my stone-faded jeans
Just leave the music of God in me

And everything I worked for
The dreams I fulfilled
They’re yours for the taking
At your mercy and will
You can have the whole world
It’s all that I plead
Just leave the music of God in me


Take the bed that I sleep on
The roof over my head
All that I own is all that you get
In the end they mean nothing
Only dust in the breeze
Just leave the music of God in me

Music of God

Skin and Bones  Words and Music: Pravinand Maharaj

Skin and bones
Heat and snow
Dark and white
Rest and flow
It’s the wider truth
A big fat wider truth

Leave and run
Be my guest
All the guns
Haven’t fired yet
It’s the wider truth
A big fat wider truth

There’s a hole on the mountain
There’s a tower in the fountain
There’s a bridge over Hades
By the Quarry-side
It’s the wider truth
A big fat wider truth

Meet the damned
Damn the beast
Half the man
I’ll always be
It’s the wider truth
A big fat wider truth
