"Chilly Morning"

Lately, the nights have been really cold and in the morning, the grass and rooftops are all covered with frost. It’s beautiful… and chilly. So I was working on a song and at some stage I came to think that this name would suit the song!

This was played by me using my old Korg digital stage piano as a master keyboard and the following instruments: 
- Piano/EP layer: Keyscape (Yamaha C7 Grand Piano/LA Piano + MKS EP)
- Electric piano: Keyscape/Rhodes - LA Custom Suitcase
- Lead layer: Yamaha Montage 8 (DX7 French Horn), UVI FMX4OP (Power Lead), Arturia Prophet-5 & Jup-8 V, AAS Lounge Lizard EP-4
- Strings: UVI Orchestral Suite, String Ensemble
- Drums: UVI Emulation II+ (cf. E-mu Emulator, Drumulator, SP12)
- Bass: Arturia Acid V

Recorded with Cubase Pro 12 using Yamaha Montage 8 as an audio interface. Mixed and mastered with iZotope Neutron 4 & Ozone 11.

Chilly Morning

I would imagine the life of a Werewolf must be tough, relying on a full moon to have the strength to go out and get a good meal. I had no idea what this song was about until I finished it. Second tune with a vocal. I hope you enjoy it.

Thought I'd sneak in a little track before the year is out. I have not been very active on Soundcloud this year, will endeavour to start writing again in the new year, and listen to all the talent that is out there! 

Happy hols

p.s. Such rhythm in these lyrics, something I have always admired about this artist.

stepping through time

LVC  # Indie Electronic 

A song about the distractions of meeting people and trying to avoid falling for them. 
All the trials and trivialities on the way to finding Love, validation and consistency.



V1
We’ve barely grazed the surface 
And in swinging from the  bigtop circus 
Oh my stupid brain it’s  like  a window frame 
I can look out but it’s travelling as fast as train 
And a one night stand during the day doesn’t feel so sleazy today 

Chorus 
Im after Love, validation and 
consistency 
that’s just the way that it is with me 
That’s just the way that it is and should be 
Your just stunning and it’s plain to see 
You need love, validation & consistently x2
Just like me x2



V2
You’ve being stealing me away from what really matters
And my scales of karma are feeling really rather battered 
I told you my problems and then you went and told me all yours 
Ok yours win so I’m getting out the favourite violin

She was born on an isle off an island
In the midst of the Emerald Sea
Her daddy spied a light in her eye
That showed what she was born to be

And they called the girl Virginia
Named for an ancient queen
Who knew how to fight in a world of men
And the lessons learned
Should be learned again

Oh Virginia, Virginia wild and free
Though waters flow and winds may blow
You should be what you were born to be

Now Virginia knew that she was loved
But she knew that she was poor
One morning when out gathering
Between the strand and the old sea shore
A pirate blown by cruel fate
Slipped his anchor close to land
When he spied the girl his pirate mind
Thought he’d take the girl in hand

Oh Virginia, Virginia wild and free
Though waters flow and winds may blow
You should be what you were born to be

He took our fair Virginia
Set course for the Isle of Man
He hoped that on the island
There he could complete his plan
But the ocean storms were brewing
And they blew them out to sea
Till the ship was was smashed on the distant shore
That we now call Cape Henry

And the land was called Virginia..

Now Virginia swam towards the shore
Though the company was drowned
But she gathered strength and she walked the way
that leads to James’ town
Now Virginia saw Virginia
And knew that the land was good
And that she could build a better life
than ever she’d have thought she could

Oh Virginia, Virginia wild and free
Though waters flow and winds may blow
You should be what you were born to be

Now Virginia came with nothing
But nothing was enough
To build herself a better life
Though the going would be very tough
She had an eye for business
And she had an eye for style
And she became the richest soul
In the county by a country mile

Oh Virginia, Virginia wild and free
Though waters flow and winds may blow
You should be what you were born to be

Then one fateful morning
A stranger came to town
She saw at once the hated face
Of the man who’d tried to drag her down
A gun was on the table
She held it to his head
And as he begged for mercy
This is what the lady clearly said

“You brought me to Virginia
Named for an ancient queen
Who knew how to fight in a world of men
And the lessons learnt should be learned again
Its true that life’s been good to me
Since you took me from my home
But leaving all that I held dear
That choice was mine and mine alone”

Oh Virginia, Virginia wild and free
Though waters flow and winds may blow
You should be what you were born to be

Virginia  (John Stone + Del Wags)

'true love' 

https://www.instagram.com/p/C3B2inkus95/

I want to give you everything that you deserve.
Although I haven't anything, I have a way with words.
Oh darling won't you come on over and sit next to me.
You can talk about your day, hon, as I'll gently massage your feet. 

I want your love and everything that accompanies.
I'll give you all the love you'll need. I want you to believe
in a love so deep that you can feel it right through to your bones.
And it makes you complete and feel like you are comfortable at home. 

True love.
