A number of years ago I found your song "The onley bridge is love" and was completely taken by your amazing creation. And I love your music and your amazing way of performing them. Today I hear "Reverie" and again get stuck and listen again and again. You are a superb songwriter. Many thanks for your beautiful music and voice. ;)

I think my friend Conny below sums up perfectly how it feels to listen to you .... So I'm not adding anything, I'm just listening.

Superb playing that gently caresses the melody line as you sing with such elegant phrasing and pleasing vocal timber.

Very nice vocals over nice instrumentation. What a good song.

Push Ahead

Lyrics;
He's got some battle scars
From walking on this earth
More or less he'd earned them all
Whatever that is worth

He's not the man he used to be
He stands in thinner skin
Worn down from the grindstone
And the world he once lived in

Experience had left a mark
Lighting up a world so dark
No more running blindly
Full speed ahead

Cut up, bruised and battered
So many dreams get shattered
From foolish things that he once did
Foolish things that he once said

He's got some battle scars
From living day to day
The price of going on his own
When he didn't know the way

On full display for all to see
Like medals from his private wars
The breaks the nicks the broken heart
Yeah, he's got some battle scars

Experience had left a mark
Lighting up a world so dark
No more running blindly
Full speed ahead

Cut up, bruised and battered
So many dreams left shattered
From foolish things he once believed
Foolish things that he once said

Battle Scars

I am a great admirer of Jonathan's work and when he approached me with this wonderful piece of music asking if I might have a go at lyrics and a vocal I felt really privileged. I wanted to try to do as good a job as I could, but initially I struggled, and then, feeling extremely despondent I took a break from it. On my second attempt I think I started to listen properly to what the music was saying – rather than imposing too much of myself on it – and I  began to get melodies and word patterns that seemed like they were there under the surface already.

This has been an amazing project to work on, and Jonathan has been hugely supportive throughout. I've done my bit for sure, but it would have been nothing without the music.

Last night I dreamed that I could play the guitar
I was on The Titanic trying to sing
My heart will still go on
But I kept getting it wrong and
I couldn't get the high notes but
At least we hadn't hit the iceberg yet and

All the stars above us shone
Like cheap sequins in the sky
Like they'd all just been stuck on
By someone who didn't try

I was studying Kate Winslet
She was standing by a ventilation inlet
In a girly dress despite the cold and
I could see that she was not impressed
By my extraordinary rendition
I said you're looking nice and
I need relationship advice and she replied
Let's take a walk on the starboard side

And the stars above us shone
Like cheap sequins in the sky
Like they'd all just been stuck on
By someone who didn't try
When life's too flattering too sweet
We all like to pretend
But we all know how it ends

We're listing to port and
Kate's politely listening as
I'm listing all the things I should have said to you but
Never did
And realistically I think she's thinking
Less about you and me and
Rather more about the fact that
We've all started sinking yeah
Into the unforgiving sea oh

But the stars above us shone...

We All Know How It Ends (Wheelwright + Beckenstein)

I cant remember a time when music wasn't a huge part of my life......    I am not a purist to any one genre.   If the music is heartfelt then I love it.  I write about my experiences and feelings, as well as what I observe in other peoples lives. Thanks to all the musicians out there who are  listening to my songs and giving me your positive feedback, as well as inspiring me with your own beautiful sounds.    What an amazing music community SoundCloud has turned out to be.
