Another summertime strum.
The short (and very inaccurate) version here (https://soundcloud.com/michele-ansani/conversion-order); all the recovered parts are unaltered and only remixed (badly).
The guitar solo from 1‘ 35’ to 1‘ 52’ and the main rhythm guitar backing from 1‘ 52 to 2'30 and then from 2'45’ to the end are by my old friend Max (thanxxx you Max!).

Dear Reader, 

Not all songs must exist on the grid. This song has no click track and therefore, it breathes. As a result, nothing was quantized. It's real playing and real performances. I hope that you can hear it. 

Of course,  the song was multitracked (I played and sang everything, so it had to be) and since there was no grid, I had to listen and react to make it gel.  I hope you consider what I did a success. 

Thanks as always for coming back to listen to more of my music. In the past four years I have produced more than 140 original music videos and I have gained 800 subscribers. This is only the beginning. I have much more music to write, arrange and produce, and I am thankful for every listen. 

Respectfully, 

Roger Whittlesey

La rose est pour toi    (in English after the French text )

Texte :      Say M
Chant :      Liora
Musique : Alain Illos

Je m'allonge 
Et replonge 
Dans les méandres qui longent
Le contour de l'aura
Qu'ils ne devinent pas

S'ils le veulent
Qu'ils m'observent
C'est leurs voix qui m'obsèdent
Parce qu'ils jugent en chimère
Ce qu'ils ne comprenn(ent) pas

La rose est pour toi
La rose est pour toi

Qu'ils me piquent 
Me transfèrent 
Se nourrissent de mes nerfs
Un peu plus chaque fois 
Je ne te laiss'rai pas
 
Je me cache
Je me terre
Te retrouver me taire 
Leurs mystères n'en sont pas
Je reviens attends-moi

La rose est pour toi
La rose est pour toi 
 
Je m'allonge 
Et replonge 
Attends-moi
Attends-moi 

La rose est pour toi
La rose est pour toi
Est pour toi...

The rose is for you    

I lie down 
And sink 
Into the meandering path
The outline of the aura
That they won't guess

If they want to
Let them observe me
It's their voices that observe me
Because they judge in chimera
What they don't understand

The rose is for you

They prick me 
Transfer me 
Feed on my nerves
A little more each time 
I won't let you
 
I hide
I hide
To find you to keep quiet 
Their mysteries are no mystery
I'll be back, wait for me

The rose is for you
 
I lie down 
And sink again 
Wait for me
Wait for me 

The rose is for you
The rose is for you
Is for you...

Lyrics:

(Chorus)
Extra ordinary—-holler if you hear me
Cause Anything goes—-Anything goes
Ask Jane ———-first name Mary
Fact—— fiction ———or theory
Yeah——Anything goes—-Anything goes

Anything goes with the beat and the rhythm
don’t worry about the verses ——got ya ——gonna kill em
extra ordinary ——-level up when you——hear me
a new dish in the menu——
like DoorDash—- I’ll bring you
——-different flavors——-different styles——
Keep it versatile

Negative vibe——no——never
jamming to the groove——
a routine endeavor
Beatz bumping—— fist pumping
they all want more ——give it up, still on top
I’ve got that high score ———————-
I’ve got that high score

energy and focus makes me the Dopest ——
I’m not bragging ——but hope you know this
:adds to my opus
———-this adds to my opus

the plan relentless make more and spend less
that’s part ———-of my checklist—-
dividing my——-check less
bottom line ——specialist
who can —-contest this ——
taste with ———a fresh twist
delivering ——-pure freshness—-
told you—— don’t stress this
level up ———to —-the—A-list ———
momentum———- contagious

Straight to the top, no time to delay
Let your body rock, got my mind on replay
Building empires, from rhymes to paper
Every bar a brick———-, and I’m stacking skyscrapers

Always hustling——always hustling
the grind never cease
Flow so cold———-like a winter breeze

Never on the sideline———gold standard —brilliance
Sip it down —like fine wine——perfecting my resilience
Get yours ——-I’ll get mine—-beats in my veins
Riding high naturally——has always ——-been the aim,
And ain’t no stopping ———And ain’t no stopping
—————Stopping these gains

Negative vibe——no——never
jamming to the groove——
a routine endeavor
Beatz bumping—— fist pumping
they all want more ——give it up, still on top
I’ve got that high score ———————-
I’ve got that high score

I'm an avant-garde musician. I like to experiment with software, instruments, and everyday objects when creating on a song.

Music is my latest artistic passion; aside from being deeply invested in making music, I create digital art, drawings, paintings, mixed-media pieces, photography, photomanipulations, poetry, and short stories. All of which can be found on my DeviantArt: Leehon.

Thank you for reading and listening.
