TO WHAT IT WAS  (TO WHAT IT CAN BE)

song written by Rover Versteeg in october 2023
recorded on december 3th in 2023 in Pelt - Belgium

Holding it in my hands
The barren and dry soil that rests on these lands
A generational project to bring it back 
To what it was 
To what it can be
If we treat her like a friend

May the soil be rich and may you be filled with laughter
As you work it with your steady hands
Power, patience dedication
An inspiration
To what it was 
To what it can be 
If we treat her like a friend 

A circle has no end and no beginning 
But it has to start somewhere 
To jump in the hoop of life and start engaging 
Is a prayer and a hope for a sacret life

May the flowers bloom in all their colour 
To share this place with the flies and bees and the trees
May we stay present in our journey for a just world
May we stay present in our journey for a just world 

To what it was 
What it can be
If we treat her like a friend

ROVER  - To What It Was - to what it can be

Escaping from the pages of Private Eye, Sid & Doris Bonkers experienced a musical metamorphosis during Covid lockdown, and emerged blinking into the light to share their creations with the world.  Ethereal, poignant and deeply moving, their music is none of these things, but they decided to put it out there anyway.

It's a blessing to be able to create music and if someone enjoys my work, that's icing on the cake! All blessings come from God.

As a retired DOD Civil Service worker, I have time to record some. I have been recording at home sice around 1990 and some of my tracks are very old.  I‘ve had 50+ years in bands playing music of many types. I still play the club scene 3 to 4 times a month. Life is good!

I'm a Guitarist who likes to write, record and sing many styles of music. Please check out my tracks. I'm also enjoying the occasional collaborations.  Meeting some good friends on here and continuing to grow. Thank you for listening!


Es una bendición poder crear música y si alguien disfruta de mi trabajo, ¡eso es la guinda del pastel! Todas las bendiciones vienen de Dios. Como trabajador jubilado del Servicio Civil del Departamento de Defensa, tengo tiempo para registrar algunos. He estado grabando en casa durante unos 23 años y algunas de mis pistas son muy antiguas. He tenido más de 50 años en bandas tocando música de muchos tipos. Todavía juego en la escena del club de 3 a 4 veces al mes. ¡La vida es buena! Soy un guitarrista al que le gusta escribir, grabar y cantar muchos estilos de música. Por favor, echa un vistazo a mis pistas. También estoy disfrutando de las colaboraciones ocasionales. Conocer a algunos buenos amigos aquí y seguir creciendo. ¡Gracias por escuchar!

Retired the beginning of 2023. Been writing music seriously for about six years. Thanks for listening - and sharing!

Thank you for visiting my page.

I enjoy writing short and sweet songs on the acoustic guitar. All of them have a retro vibe.I hope you enjoy them..Nick.

I am a pro musician and multi-instrumentalist and singer. 
My main instrument is the tenor sax though. 
I was a member of a famous Dutch band, the Dizzy Man's Band. 
I played in big theatre shows and musicals and later on had a solo career as Nick McAlley.
 I still feel the urge to write and record my own music.  
 I thank you for taking the time to listen!  Especially if you're an old soul with a young heart.

Hey,
I'm a 24 year old musician from germany,
Hope you enjoy my music :)
