Heart full of rain

I made this track on my old electronic piano - programmed rhythm: Acid Jazz. I experimented by here and there making a part double of the recorded rhythm and change the pitch of the drum... in that double.

As usual i used effects on my voice and layered ...(sorry i can't help doing that haha).

Very simple lyrics,  but bottom line: we are living so fast that we don't notice it's going bad with the people around us, or even with ourselves.... 
We ask polite: "Are you OK?" but never want to hear "it's not OK?"
In this sick society we can have an important role to play to make a difference for someone.

Lyrics 
Not OK...


Are you OK

Nobody will know, nobody will see
You're not OK

NO Way
Did you notice, she is
Did you notice that she's not
She's not OK

Not OK...

I am an Answer not a Question

We decided to release this live version because we had fun performing it and thought you might like it too.  It was recorded on a TASCAM DR-05X on the 19th April 2025 at the Con Club in Lewes.

This is from 2023........ Remastered with a stem seperator 2024. The opening is probably the most obnoxious thing I've ever recorded, in my opinion. Couple of bad notes in the solo 😆.

I had a poem in my mind, but I couldn't find the words, so I made music.
