lovely tune...the words melody and presentation very pleasing to my ear...nothing better than pulling them tunes out of the air...agree it is a mystery where they come from sometimes

@user-936947521: Thank you very much Frans for listening and the positive feedback as well 🙏😊🎸 🎼🎶

Brilliant composition, evocative vocals that resonate with the listener. Also, awesome guitar playing, very soothing in essence

A fine song. Expressive vocals nicely done

Wounderful song, great voice, very nice music, awesome guitar 👍👏

Fantastic song Len! A great finale number for sure! Awesome lyrics and vocals! Great job Len!

I really love this, it's amazing the treasures that are in  our minds just waiting to come show itself

This one started out as 2 different incomplete projects (in different keys) after failing to fully actualize either I thought I'd fuse the 2 into one piece with lyrics that touch on longing and loss.

Into the crystal light
a deep and satisfying sight
then I'm in your arms once more

Over the distant range
a tale that never wants to change
can you see it now, with me

Under a mystic spell
the ole familiar parallel
to be in your arms again

After the driving rain
the landscape never looks the same
now I'm back again this time

We will remember
never surrender
We will remember now

Once we discover
Love in forever
we'll make it through somehow

We will remember
never surrender
We will remember now

Into the crystal light
a deep and satisfying sight
then I'm in your arms once more

In Your Arms

English lyrics: happy or unhappy 2
(g = boy / (f = girl)
(g) I like who you are, (f) yes I know, my appearance and my ideas (f) But I hesitated for a long time (g) Yes to follow me be by my side be happy or unhappy
(f) Yes but when we met (g) yes I know I didn't have a crush (g) we just talked, (f) but straight away we thought
to be happy or unhappy
(g) I don’t know how but I looked for you, (f) I know you called me
(g) Ha yes this meeting I wanted (f) But it was me who caused it
to be happy or unhappy
Bridge 1 :
 (g & f) We knew it could last
Why did you hesitate for so long?
to be happy or unhappy
Bridge (percussion) + be happy > gimic motif > or unhappy (end moans)
II 2 times II
(g) Now that we know each other, (f) Oh yes I know, I won't regret
(g) We are not ready to leave each other, (f) Yes live together,
It’s better than what they told us
to be happy but not unhappy (yes yé-éé) to be happy or unhappy
Guitar chorus
This is what our friends told us
Choose to be happy or unhappy
Because living together today
It’s choosing to be happy or maybe be unhappy

Keeping with the Valentine's Day theme of love, here's an oldie but goldie I wrote this back in 1998, can you believe it, It's another song about my dream girl that I wouldn't meet for many year afterwards. I was divorced for about 2 years and pretty much feeling abandoned and lonely. I remember wanting to write a song in the same vein as "And I Love Her" by The Beatles. A very acoustic number with an accordion playing in the background, you know, very romantic like something you might hear in a Paris cafe! This was one of the first songs I did with Charlie, it wasn't recorded too well since I had an old Tascam 8-track analog recorder and it's distorted quite a bit but I think the melody and lyrics still hold up. (Mastering didn't help this song at all, sorry!) I don't know, let me know what you think in the comments. I've always liked the first line about wrapping myself inside her smile. I produced the video a few months ago for this Valentine's Day. I enjoyed putting it together and added like 10 quick snap shots of beautiful women taking selfies at the end of the video. I hope you guys enjoy it and Happy Valentine's Day to everyone! Ciao! 😎✌🏼

“HOW I LOVE HER”

IT’S JUST SOMETHING IN THE WAY SHE WEARS A SMILE,   
THAT MAKES ME WANT TO WRAP MYSELF INSIDE IT,   
NO MATTER HOW HARD I MIGHT TRY TO HIDE IT,   
HOW I LOVE HER,             
     
SIMPLY A SUBTLE SHIFT OF HER BEAUTIFUL EYES, 
MELTS AWAY ALL THE BITTERNESS WITHIN ME,   
AND EVERY TIME SHE TOUCHES ME, SHE WINS ME,  
HOW I LOVE HER,

I ADORE HER EVERY CULTIVATED GLANCE,       
AND EACH MOVEMENT THAT SHE MAKES IS LIKE A DANCE,
THERE’S NO WORDS TO EXPRESS HOW MUCH I LOVE HER,       
I CAN NEVER SEEM TO GET ENOUGH OF HER,       
SHE’S MY DREAM COME TRUE, MY EVERYTHING,       
AND WITH EACH AND EVERY LOOK SHE MAKES MY SENSES SING,
     
EVERY TIME SHE KISSES ME, I’M IN HEAVEN,   
WHEN SHE’S IN MY ARMS MY WORRIES DISAPPEAR,          
MY LOVE FOR HER GROWS STRONGER WITH EACH YEAR,   
HOW I LOVE HER,      
          
I ADORE HER EVERY CULTIVATED GLANCE,        
AND EACH MOVEMENT THAT SHE MAKES IS LIKE A DANCE,
THERE’S NO WORDS TO EXPRESS HOW MUCH I LOVE HER,         
I CAN NEVER SEEM TO GET ENOUGH OF HER,       
SHE’S MY DREAM COME TRUE, MY EVERYTHING,       
AND WITH EACH AND EVERY LOOK SHE MAKES MY SENSES SING,
     
EVERY TIME SHE KISSES ME, I’M IN HEAVEN,    
WHEN SHE’S IN MY ARMS MY WORRIES DISAPPEAR,           
MY LOVE FOR HER GROWS STRONGER WITH EACH YEAR,  
HOW I LOVE HER,   
HOW I LOVE HER,   
HOW I LOVE HER.

Last "Buzz" section from 6th take. Noise and FX from a keypad with rythmic and distorted beat.

R&N (6.8)

A new composition that came to me this morning. I started humming and singing this simple ,familiar melody which I have always found comforting and calming. Wrote up some lyrics to finish up the tune and here it is. If I was still playing live in front of audiences this tune would be a great way to end the show.

Lyrics:

Somewhere on the winding road
Underneath the skies of gold
Oh, won’t you wander in my dreams
Beneath the moonlight’s silver beams

Some may roam with searching eyes
Chasing hope beneath the skies
We’ll discover joy in every heartbeat
The universe will sing our sweet repeat

Somewhere, somewhere down the road
I’ll find that warmth that lightens my load
Oh, the calm and peace we all seek
Voices in harmony, divine and meek

So, take my hand and don’t let it go
Together we’ll face what we do not know
Through the valleys, we'll find our own way
In every moment, come what may

Somewhere on this golden road
I’ll find the joy that we both hold
With you, my friends, let’s take the leap
Together we’ll find that heart to keep

Feb 11 1963....Death of Sylvia Plath... 62 years ago... 
Florida Dawn reference found within the pages of  the Bell Jar her only novel
Sylvia Plath reading a portion of Lady Lazarus opens tune...

Florida Dawn

All that we touch                                       
Turns to dust                                            
The flesh gone frantic                              
The ink upon the page                         
The idea stays                                         
Reading pages of Plath                            
Such a sad aftermath                               
I picked up those letters                             
And sprinkled some bits on your grave       
See love where it lays                                 

That February spinning round                       
Breath is getting thin                                     
Sit and watch the ocean tide                         
Centuries crashing in                                     
In the Florida Dawn                                        
Another episode of cruel                                
The leader and the ones lead on                    
Who's playing tricks on who?                          

Rain begets rust                                           
Turns steel into dust                                     
The flesh gone static                                    
A chemical tease for the brain                    
Why did you read her again?                          
She did a Sylvia Plath                                 
Climbing into the bath                                    
I'll spare you the details,                               
the end result was the same                       
Minus the fame                                            

Now everything is spinning round                 
In this space I'm in                                       
I sit and watch the ocean tide                        
All those centuries crashing in                       
In the Florida Dawn                                       
Replay your episode of cruel                            
The leader and the one lead on                    
Who's playing tricks on who?                          

I walk these words and find myself              
Where you said you'd be 
I walk these words to where you ought to be                            
But there's only me                                       







Florida Dawn

“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.
