By My Side

Ah Sue 
Our time is coming soon
I’ll save a place for you
By my side

And so 
No matter how it goes
Our love can only grow
Across time

As we make our way
Through each day
Gets a little closer to when we can say
That we never have to be apart again

Ah Sue
It’s not been easy it’s true
But that will all end soon 
In good time

One day this all will seem like a distant memory
And we can live our lives like it was meant to be

So now 
Don’t let it get you down
There’s no need to frown
It’s just the price we pay

As we make our way
Through each day
Gets  a little closer to when we can say
That we never have to be apart again

Ah Sue 
Our time is coming soon
I’ll save a place for you
By my side
By my side
By my side

It's pretty straight forward but I sometimes still need to remind myself to choose the path that is right for me. Here's a reminder for anyone trying to make a decision about something.

If it don't feel right
It ain't right
If it don't feel right 
Put it out of your sights
Don't go that way
Don't stay 
For the show
Cuz If it don't feel right 
If it don't feel right 
If it don't feel right 
You know
It ain't right

If It Don't Feel Right It Ain't Right

Welcome vacations

The reasons why we turn away
From all that’s seen…
A complication for another day
And the lies between…

The living daylights up the darkest night
And places we have been…
Raise a glass to our prosperity…my friend 

The reasons that we go out late 
And stay too long
A complication for another day
What could go wrong…

The vapid prattle and another beer
As the clock strikes half past two
Tell me everything I long to hear, would you…

In the season of obscurity
Lines will fade
A complication for another day
We’ve got it made

The living daylights up the darkest night
And places we have been…
Raise a glass to our prosperity…my friend…

The reasons why we turn away
From all that’s seen…

Mr. Cha

So this poor Rhodes has been having a hard life with me... not very compatible with tramway and train, standing in a room where normally nobody is, having been used as a stand for all sort of things... and the cat has been doing crazy stuff with it, too.

Digged it out, cleaned it, fidgeted with this grrr sustain pedal for some hours, welcome back my friend!

Inspired by #BryanAdams #JimmyEatWorld #TheLa’s & #RascalFlatts this is about those instances in life that change everything for the better. 

A song about finding love and starting a family; those life changing moments - “In An Instant”

It would never be anyone else
It could only, only be you
Yes, it was worth it all, the walking through the hell
You know that
You know that too
Keeping my hopes up after the last car crash 
You opened up my eyes, yes, I think this might last.

My life it changed in an instant
I was waiting for you to come over, over over
My life it changed in an instant 
I was waiting for you to take over me, over over

Seeing your face for the first time
You’re all I wished for and more
Yes, it was worth it, worth it all 
I'll cradle you now from here to the grave
You opened my heart and I was saved.

IN AN INSTANT (2024)

"Don't Go Back to Rockville" is a song by the American rock band R.E.M. Delivered by the band's vocalist Michael Stipe and released as a single in 1984, as well as appearing on their second studio album, "Reckoning” the same year. My friends, me at 16, an other hardcore musician people loved the record

The song's title refers to Rockville, Maryland, a suburb of Washington, D.C., and the lyrics convey a sense of longing, regret, and the desire to escape from a place and situation. Michael Stipe mentioned in interviews that the song was written by Mike Mills as a plea to a special friend at the time, asking them not to return to Rockville

R.E.M. was formed in Athens, Georgia, in the early 1980s and became one of the leading bands of the alternative rock scene. "Don't Go Back to Rockville" is one of their notable early tracks and remains a fan favorite

Mike Mills always put his heart into it and remains my favorite bandmember: https://youtu.be/iKlwHbXVBJ8?si=HA8czyNjpBCZwHNc

C
Looking at your watch a third time
C                               F   Fsus4  F  Fsus4  F
waiting in the station for the bus

Going to a place that's far,
C                               F   Fsus4   F  Fsus4  F
so far away and if that's not enough
G            F      Em    Am
Going where nobody says hello,

they don't talk to anybody they don't know

You'll wind up in some factory
C                                           F   Fsus4   F  Fsus4  F
that's full time filth with nowhere left to go
C
Walk home to an empty house,

sit around all by yourself
G                     F           Em  Am
I know it might sound strange but I believe

You'll be coming back before too long

C
At night I drink myself to sleep and pretend
C                               F   Fsus4   F  Fsus4  F
I don't care that you're not here with me
C
'Cause it's so much easier to handle
C                               F   Fsus4   F  Fsus4  F
All my problems if I'm too far out to sea
G                    F      Em   
But something, it better happen soon
        Am                  Gm        F   Fsus4   F  Fsus4  F
Or it's gonna be too late to bring you back

Don't go back to Rockville,

don't go back to Rockville
F
And waste another year

[Bridge]
C                           F    G    F   G
It's not as though I really need you
C                          F    G    F  G
If you were here I'd only bleed you
Dm      Am          Dm       Am                F
But everybody else in town only wants to bring you down and
           F               G
That's not how it ought to be
            G              F            Em    Am
Well I know it might sound strange but I believe
Am                   Gm          F   Fsus4   F  Fsus4  F
You'll be coming back before too long

[Chorus]

Don't Go Back To Rockville

Don’t Go Back to Rockville

Communication
Dear friends, this song is a tribute to Soundcloud and to muscicians around the world. Communication is important. It gives us the great opportunity to reach friends over the whole world via the Internet.
I love Soundcloud where I have found music friends over the whole world, and I have never seen any bad words here. I am certain that musicians are a kind people!!

There’s a letter in my mail box - it’s from a friend far away
I have never seen this guy
The mail has  sailed over seas
to my country here where the winter comes
the mail is so welcome and I read it so seriously

It is easy to send a mail to all - in every corner of the world
sometimes people tell lies
it’s not so obvious 
if the message which is sent is false or it is true
we all must be careful about what we are writing on the net

There are forces around the world - who want to harm certain folks
but these forces can’t stay alive
soon the world will learn how to deal
with the false and nasty messages as soon they are sent
the young folks shall never be suffering from bullying mails

I have noticed that the mood here - is so gentle and so kind
I have never seen bad words
on this music site we have here
we can hear music from all the countries on our globe
my feelings are great when I listen to the songs from my friends

Lyrics in Swedish:  Kommunikation

Det ligger ett brev i min brevlåda - det är från en vän långt borta
Jag har aldrig sett den här killen
Posten har seglat över havet
till mitt land här där vintern kommer
posten är så välkommen och jag läser den så allvarligt

Det är lätt att skicka ett e-postmeddelande till alla - i världens alla hörn
ibland ljuger folk
det är inte så självklart
om meddelandet som skickas är falskt eller det är sant
vi måste alla vara försiktiga med vad vi skriver på nätet

Det finns krafter runt om i världen - som vill skada vissa människor
men dessa krafter kan inte överleva
snart kommer världen att lära sig hur man handskas
med de falska och otäcka meddelandena så fort de skickas
de unga ska aldrig drabbas av mobbningsmail

Jag har märkt att stämningen här - är så mild och så snäll
Jag har aldrig sett dåliga ord
på denna musiksajt vi har här
vi kan höra musik från alla länder på vår jordklot
mina känslor är fantastiska när jag lyssnar på låtarna från mina vänner

Communication

In The Theatre

Stay here my little ones
Rain comes, without the sun

For years my precious one
Please stay clear until we've won

Stay here our days may come
The pain we feel
Our daughters run

Stay near, one thread hooks on
Rain anneals us to the sun

Chords For Ukraine

Tomorrow will be a better day
A brighter day
Your sorrows will melt away
Be swept away
Together we will stand
Hand in hand
Looking towards our better days

When I don't have the time to actively listen to my favorite artists on soundcloud, I just leave the stream running...while washing up in the kitchen, for example 😆

********************************************************************

A long, long time ago, there was an organ in the Christmas-decorated living room in his parents' house, where Frank grew up. Originally bought by his father for his two older siblings, they showed no interest in playing the organ. Frank, however, did. White and black keys and giving off strange sounds. 

So at the age of 9 he began to let his fingers circle on this instrument, searching for the right keys like on a typewriter. And another 9 years would pass before he could buy his first own instrument. Already at the age of 13 he made notes about the then current synthesizers, bought one magazine after the other and visited music fairs in Frankfurt, Germany.

His first keyboard was the Yamaha DSR-2000, which he bought in a music store near his hometown Biebertal. In installments! Finally he could develop himself further - away from the limited tonality of the small organ. The built-in 8-track sequencer helped him to reach unimagined heights. 
Little by little his equipment expanded and his ambition to create music like that of Jean-Michel Jarres came closer. Influenced by this and countless other musicians of the time, his interest grew, but he taught himself everything. Not even having attended a music school or being able to read music at all, he wrote one song after another and recorded them on the only medium available to him at the time: audio cassettes.
Many of these recordings are unfortunately lost forever, because cassettes are and were not the best recording medium. He has to try to play many of his songs from memory. 

In 2007, he fulfilled a long-awaited wish: to buy a KORG. He had always wanted to own one, but with the latest synthesizers at the time of their release having a purchase price of over 6000 D-marks (the currency of the time in the 1980s and 1990s), that dream of owning one was far away. So in 2007 he bought a used KORG 01W/FD at ebay. And as before with the purchase of the Yamaha keyboard, a completely new world opened up to him.

In addition, there were expanders and sound modules from Kawai, Roland and Yamaha (K1m, SC-55, QY10). Six years later his enthusiasm for making music ebbed and rediscovered his hobby (which it always was and still is). In 2018 in April he decided to present his music to a wider audience and uploaded his first song on the platform soundcloud. Since that time, thanks also to the ever-evolving software, he continues to evolve, experiment and relive his times through music.
