beautiful words and beautiful music. congratulations 👏

This track feels like a heartfelt conversation, gentle, sincere, and full of care 💛 The vocals are absolutely beautiful, open and clear, and the harmonies glide in like a second heartbeat. The instrumental floats around them perfectly, never distracting, just holding space. It’s simple in structure, but the message runs deep, an Enya-style embrace of honesty that encourages us to speak our truth with kindness and courage. You can really feel the care in every line. 🍳 The frying pan whispered appreciatively, “That warmth behind each line? It’s like comfort without compromise” 🎧 The coffee machine murmured, “Your words brew trust, steady, thoughtful, and full bodied” 🧂 The salt grinder chimed in softly, “Seasoned with integrity, this track holds its flavor, no sweeteners needed” Really felt the message, simple, heartfelt, and beautifully delivered 🧡

True Friend

Is it kind to tell a lie when a friend needs the truth?
What is kind from fellow minds true friends all have to choose
Saying words without meaning will not help a friend
Speak the truth, mean the truth and it will set you free

Choices made can make us slaves gravity starts to pull
Causing minds and hearts to ache changing wise into fools
Tell the truth, speak the truth, honesty will supply 
 Second chance, stable hands, and it all starts with you

Never lie to a friend
Just to spare them torment
If you choose to be silent
You'll fall in the end

Speak your mind leave doubt behind
Courage will free the lost
Do what right to warn a friend
Never mind what the cost

Speak the truth
Live the truth
And it will set you free
Truest love never shirks
Truth is all that can be

Never lie to a friend
Just to spare them torment
If you choose to be silent
You'll fall in the end

Speak the truth
Live the truth
And it will set you free

Never lie to a friend
Just to spare them torment
If you choose to be silent
You'll fall in the end

Great book about honesty:

Galileo's telescopic observation of the moons of Jupiter orbiting the planet  was a black swan moment for the Church's earth centred view of the universe. As ever those whose long held beliefs were challenged by the facts did not react well. Plus ca change.

But Still it Moves (John Stone)

Galileo Galileii stood before the court 
Accused of breaking sacred law
In what he said and what he thought  
They told him God had made us the centre of all things
The earth stood still, The universe
revolves around in perfect spheres and rings.

But he had seen the moons of Jupiter
Sailing through the void
And knew at once religious law
Had forever been destroyed
The power of observation
Proved the earth went round the sun
And we were not the centre of all things
as we were told we had become.

The Bishops and the Cardinals
Were outraged by the thought
That places held by God and man
Were not what they had always taught,
They forced a recantation of his controversial views
But as they dragged him from the court
He cried,“But still it moves”

Still it moves, Still it moves
But still the earth goes round the sun
Whatever you can make me say
A truth once known can’t be undone
So forget your old religions
And new ideologies
Truth is truth and only truth will I let speak to me
And still it moves… 

We’d like to think we’ve come some way 
Since those unenlightened days
But look around and count the things 
you know but are afraid to say 
In pain of media pile-ons 
And News that’s always fake 
And Those who are inclined to say 
That hate is truth and truth is hate 

It may not seem important  
But it still seems plain to me 
If you’re not allowed to speak the truth 
Then you’re no longer free 
So when they try to shout you down 
With the crazy things they say 
Remember Galileo
When he once dared to say
Still it moves…

But Still It Moves

Can be heard on the first album "Neustart". Enjoy it!

As You Asked is not a piece about certainty, but about trust — the kind that is born when two souls meet through creation. As if the piano itself understood the question and, without hesitation, simply replied: as you asked.
It was born from an exchange between Francesco Adornetto and Jessica Brown Bains, from a simple phrase that holds an entire intention: to offer something genuine, without hesitation. Each note is a wordless reply, a musical gesture that doesn’t aim to explain, but simply to be — like lifelong friends — just as requested, just as felt.
Within the flow of the composition, there is a delicate balance between listening and revealing. The higher phrases — quick and fleeting — feel like whispered thoughts, while the deep and steady foundation tells of a profound intimacy, one that reveals itself only to those who know how to ask sincerely.

Written by Jimi Hendrix 1967
Well, she's walking through the clouds
With a circus mind that's running wild
Butterflies and zebras and moonbeams
And her fairy tales
That's all she ever thinks about
Riding with the wind
When I'm sad, she comes to me
With a thousand smiles, she gives to me free
"It's alright" she says, "It's alright"
Take anything you want from me, take anything
Anything
Fly on, little wing

LA VIE CACAHOUÈTE 

Un parfum d'adrénaline 
Une humeur caline
Un rêve de  praline
Une saveur saline
Une envie de berline
Des illusions marine 
Des accords grenadine 
Une Musique divine 

Refrain 
C’est ma vie cacahuète 

La vie cacahuète
Des amour clopinettes
Des promesses pirouette 
Un destin girouette
Des espoirs en cachette 
Des jeux d'allumettes
Des goûts de fête 
L’histoire Parfaite


Le Basic style 
Des gens des villes 
Des mots Textiles
Des passions tranquille 
C’est pas pas si faciles 
Les regrets débiles
Les nuits camomille 
Les jours qui vacillent

Dear friends, I sit here philosophizing. Since the beginning of time, reproduction has been essential. Love seems to boost reproduction. And I believe that our bees feel love for the flowers they pollinate!

The Crew of Love

In springtime we may see the busy crew of love begins to act
they create all the wonders that nature provides
it must be something that we hardly understand
how it began, it is a mystery, who made these flowers for us  
They are the signs that life is going on

The crew also consists of creatures who are lively and diligent
it buzzes and it chirps all over our little park
it must be something that we hardly understand
how it began, it is a mystery, who made these flowers for us 
They are the signs that life is going on

The flowers of all our trees create clouds that are fragrant and magical
and I will never leave my dear home
it must be something that we hardly understand
how it began, it is a mystery, who made these flowers for us 
They are the signs that life is going on

I sit here and I think how terrible it would be if bombs start to fall down  
as they do on the Middle, East coast and in Ukraine
it must be something that we hardly understand
how it began, it is a mystery, who made these missisles for them 
They are the signs that life may take an end

This piece is about how life is like the ocean...Sometimes it’s calm and clear… other times, wild and unpredictable. You can’t fight the waves, but you can learn to ride them. Thanks for listening and sharing 🙏

Les Hirondelles by Elisabeth Dicker and YuRob

Some words for our darling boy who has now departed us.

The tiny patter of four furred feet.
The one among your litter, we were blessed to meet.
With a whimper, with a yelp,
in 'dog' you said, 'I'll help ...
to make you love, to make you laugh
and cry.'

As a pup, you chased the deer away,
were even lost for one whole day!
But praise be to DOG, you came back.
To us,
your pack.

No Einstein, this is true.
But in treats, one was surely one less than two.
Socks meant walks
and we loved you.
This, you knew.

In your cosy bed,
sleeping days away.
With every year, a thicker coat of grey.
But your hazel eyes seemed to defy all time.

And now.
No tiny patter, whimper, yelp.
Who will we turn to now for help?
To love. To laugh. We cry.
Stan, you brought us endless joy.
Rest in peace. 
We love you.
There's a good boy.

Dear Stan

Pee Gee       :          Lyrics

Good To Know

I´ve always been a seeker
A  lonesome seeker after truth
I´m a believer now
And I believe in youth 

Farewell to all those temptors
The preachers of hot air
I´m no longer worried
Cos I ...I ...don´t care

It´s true I´m getting older
But I´m still young at mind
And it´s good..to know

As I row down the river
Sliding down real slow
Sweet memories appear
And it´s good...so good..to know...

Good to know

Motherhood is a Gift
Every Child is a Miracle

All that is good is all that improves

"You have turned my mourning into dancing."-Psalm 30:11

"Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, “I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won’t have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life.”- John 8:12 (NLT)

"Your character goes with you no matter the external environment you find yourself in. It can produce peace that is untouchable by your surroundings, and meaning that endures no matter the actions of those around you."-Robert Smith ("The Glory of God is Intelligence")

"Do the best you can until you know better.  Then when you know better, do better."-Maya Angelou
