@linonyx Thank you 🙏☺️🎸🎵🎶

beautiful song great performance..love the lyrics and all the imagery esp the line about being the stone on the shore...that quiet lonely strength...real nice tune

i can’t get over you
i can’t let go

a randy catastrophe
a dark rodeo

i can’t get over you
i can’t let go

too feral to wait for me
too slinky for slow

i’ll be waiting
by the water
will you meet me
tomorrow?

high jungle of emptiness
footprints in the snow

i can’t get over you
i can’t let go

I'll Be Waiting

Only got leftovers
A little more than what I was asking for
Take a little morsel home

Got a feeling I ain’t seeing anything going on
Got a feeling I might have missed everything
You told me that I need to know

Call the waiter, need a box
Carry in my hand if it don’t fit inside
Too stuffed to finish up

Got a feeling I ain’t seeing anything going on
Got a feeling I might have missed everything
You told me that I need to know

Questions go unanswered because
You’re asking the wrong question
Ask me something else

Paid the bill and walking out
Satisfied, laugh to myself
Check the score
Take a little morsel home

Got a feeling I ain’t seeing anything going on
Got a feeling I might have missed everything
You told me that I need to know

Questions go unanswered because
You’re asking the wrong question
Ask me something else

Living on my own ( Oueen Improvisation )

It seems that each season has its own "perfume of mystery".  In a typical Texas panhandle spring, it is Lilac and Russian Olive that perfume the air.  In the deep South, Magnolias are hypnotically fragrant.  In summer it is the fresh, petrichor air after a rainstorm, or a newly-mown field of hay.  In the fall there is a pungency of fallen leaves as they are raked into piles, and as the days grow cooler, smoke from a fireplace during an evening walk. It is an odor that grows stronger and crisper as winter sets in and the sweet scent of pine with the setting up of Christmas trees.  Dan wanted to capture this "perfume of mystery" with his unique composing and keyboard skills and invited me to come along. Thank you my friend for inviting me.  Hear more of Dan's beautiful and unique "French Fantasy" music @dan-t-3.

My Lyrics
AI Melody
=================================================================

Going through the motions.
Barely aware of the world.
Can't even brave a thought.

I am lost without myself. 
Myself.
Plodding along course not my own.
Built from remnants and cast adrift.
A derelict of a life not lived

The years all melt into one.
Gone are the beginnings and endings.
Somewhere in there I existed.
 
Lost my soul before I was born.
A bargain I never had to make.
Just the shell of a person, 
Hollowed skin made of paper,
No energy to punch my way

I am lost without my heart.
My heart.
Plodding a course not of my own.
Built from remnants and thrown adrift
A derelict of a love not lived.
 
I am lost without myself.
Myself.

Lost Without Myself

you know I know...how many times we pretend nothing is happening...🤷💫🤝💫

Lyric and music by Linonyx

 VANITY

 (Verse)

 To hope for tomorrow

 means to believe in something

 that is not fantasy, but reality.

 (Chorus)

 Do you know that I know?

 Why don't you look up?

 (Verse)

 To raise your eyes to the sky

 and touch with your mind

 the impenetrable blue

 of your sweet gaze.

 (Chorus)

 Do you know that I know?

 Why don't you look up?

 (Verse)

 To realize that you are not alone;

 that life is like a caress

 light,  a stolen smile

 that with time will then be returned.

 (Verse)

 To savor the sweetness of life

 peeling through the petals of a flower,

 to slowly immerse yourself

 in the immense green sea.

  (Chorus)

 You know I know?

 Why don't you look up?

 (Verse)

 So laughing, running and playing

 imagining flying in the sky

 thinking deep in your heart:

 "Do you love me?".

Echoes of yesterday by Zitou Itou & Albert Paul & Royaltyusrecords

Cast of Characters:
Joe Stroffolino-- @joseph-stroffolino -- Taylor 114ce acoustic guitar, main vocals, harmony vocals, lyrics, composition
Llanpsych -- @llanpsych -- Tez – Epiphone Les Paul electric guitar
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara -–Ken–drums and percussion
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1 –- four string Fender Precision Bass, and Roland organ
TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– Tom Anderson Custom T electric guitar, mix, mastering, and production

  
This song began when Joe, feeling a bit nostalgic, wrote the lyrics and composed it on his acoustic guitar. He recorded it and sang it with expert harmonies, then decided to share it with Eclectic Collective. We were all very excited to get work on our second song with Joe, as we all admire his songwriting.
  First up was Tez this time, oddly enough. He was able to identify all the fill spots and light up the solo without the rest of us even adding anything yet. Next came Ken, who usually goes first, adding his steady grooving drums and tasty percussion. Once the drums were down, Josh completed the rhythm section by adding his fretted bass. He also worked out an organ part to give the whole sound a bit of thickness. Also adding some thickness and texture, Stephen added a clean electric rhythm part, as well. 
  Once we had it in can we asked Stephen to mix and produce it for us, which he did in his always expert fashion. 
  This, as mentioned, is Eclectic Collective's second song with Joe, and we all enjoyed bringing it to life with him. He's a wonderful collaborator and an all around good dude. Do yourself a favor and go check out his page, which is rich in great songs. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.

Original lyrics by Joe Stroffolino:

If you find yourself in trouble and you think you've lost your way. 
Here's hoping that you find a path to a better day.
I sure hope that you're happy.  I'm wishing you the best.
I hope you find what you're looking for as you continue on your quest.
I hope you find all the answers to all those questions vexing you.
I hope you can find a way not to bite off more than you can chew.
I sure hope that you're happy.  I'm wishing you the best.
I hope you find what you're looking for as you continue on your quest.
You spread your wings and you flew so far away from me.
I hope that you're enjoying your new reality
All those places that you said that you wanted to see.
I hope they're as good as you expected them to be.
I want you to know that you hold a special place in my heart.
I think about you often even though we are apart.
They say that when you love somebody sometimes you gotta be willing to let them go.
You gotta let them spread their wings and fly wherever the wind decides to blow. 
I sure hope that you're happy.  I'm wishing you the best.
I hope you find what you're looking for as you continue on your quest.
I hope that you're happy. I hope that you're doing well.  I sure hope that you're doing swell.You spread your wings and you flew so far away from me.
I hope that you're enjoying your new reality



I Hope That You're Happy - The Eclectic Collective with Joe Stroffolino

A new composition....this song had it's inspiration related to a recent conversation I had with a young singer/songwriter. The struggles of trying to make a career in music has always been a challenge , but particularly in these days and times. The song focuses a lot on the solo singer /songwriter , but it can relate to anyone in the world of music.

Lyrics:

I’m an anxious drifter on this road
With a suitcase full of dreams that feel like stones
Plodding along in this solo parade
Painted smiles hide the price that I’ve paid

Trying to learn what’s worth showing
A flicker of light in a world that feels so low
Is it wrong to bear my soul in this fight
Or share too much and lose the light

Oh, why do I keep searching for this gold in the rain
Where the streets are paved with doubt and pain
Some say my songs won’t ever be good enough
But I’ll still keep chasing my dream trying to call their bluff

Questions linger like graffiti on the walls
What I’m reaching for will I rise or fall
The chords in my fingers fumble the tune
Will the stars align on this lonesome afternoon

Oh, to find the right melody wrapped around my fears
And taste the bittersweet laughter and the tears
They say I should reach for a more popular dream
But my heart beats wild with this quiet scream              
                                                          
 In a world that’s moving fast, I’m a stone on the shore
Wave after wave, keep on knocking at my door
Too many dreams crowd my restless mind
But maybe in the struggle, I’ll find my voice

Searching For Gold in the Rain

“What makes a song is the singer, while what makes a singer is their dedication to music and their inner feelings.”   Dimash Qudaibergen

I have enjoyed music for as long as I can remember and cannot remember a day of not either singing or listening to music. I am self-taught when it comes to playing guitar but what I most enjoy is singing which I have been doing since around age 18. Now retired singing and playing the guitar is now just a hobby and something I do to help pass the time. Have always  loved the sound of a Martin guitar. Currently been playing a Road Series DR S2 for about 6 years. Thanks for listening. I also enjoy discovering the sounds of other talented musicians and singers here on SoundCloud.
