What a talent you are! Very lovely and a unique style

wonderful playing, sound and composition Paul

I really get to love your works for guitar. This is wonderful!

On a cool bright evening
in the middle of May
He was sittin' all alone 
just waiting beside the train

And she left one morning
on the northbound line
on the run from what her life became 
and the ones who robbed her blind

But he wasn't waitin' for her
and he couldn't read minds
and she wasn't heading anywhere
in particular that time

And at first they never noticed it
But on the second look they did
and as they talked he took the chance 
to say all the words he'd never said

He said, "I'll take you out tomorrow
it's just a drive away from home.
But if you fall in love with me again
you will never be fine."

She said "she's only flyin solo."
Since he left her all alone
And if she fell in love with him
He could never ask why
He could never ask why
He could never ask why

And at times you feel the world turn
when you stand real still
And you fumble for the words you need
to describe the way it feels

And the way it feels is often the way 
it'll keep you awake at night
If you chase the ghosts that haunt your dreams
then you'll never see the light

Cause the light is right before you
if you care to turn it on
And you could pull back on the darkness
if you can't tell him that he's wrong

And you turn the light and tear the 
ticket up that's in your hand
Walkin' off into the sunset 
in a life that lies ahead

She said she's, "never gonna go home."
and, "let's runaway tonight."
And when she fell in love with him again
he could never ask why

He said "that they could leave tomorrow
to anywhere that they could fly."
And when she fell in love with him before
He didn't need to know why
He didn't need to know why
He didn't need to know why

She said, "don't worry about tomorrow,
it's all the way across the night.
Cause if you fall in love with me again
you will never be fine."

He said that, "I could handle myself,
and don't worry if I'm right,
because I fell in love with you 
the minute you came into my sight."
You came into my sight
You came into my sight

Don't Worry About Tomorrow

GRATITUDE - It's all about the music!

It took me some time to finish this tune, as I composed this almost a decade ago. For some reason, many other musical projects kept distracting me from investing the kind of time this tune, “GRATITUDE”, required and I believe deserved. 
But, I decided to not let it remain on the back burner any longer. 
I’m happy to say I finally got it done.

This tune is all about the gratitude I have towards everything that encompasses music. There’s gratitude simply for music existing in the first place. It’s my heartfelt tribute towards the art of music in all its forms. It is also just as much a tribute to ALL the musicians, from all walks of life, famous and not so famous... with some of course being highly influential and motivational for me on a personal level, all of which have been a source of inspiration in one way or another over the course of my life.

The essence of music is one of those big unanswered mysteries in the human experience. Why is it that we humans perceive the sounds of music in the way we do? No one has ever really come up with a plausible explanation, yet music remains as a special art form that has existed throughout modern civilization and has been expressed in countless ways. It’s pretty incredible… isn’t it?!

So, I conclude with the hopes that you will give a good listen to my tune “GRATITUDE”. 
After all this is a tribute to every one out there... whether you are a fellow musician, or the non-musician that simply loves to listen to music and one that embraces this wonderful and diverse art form.

Frida's Wings – The Valse 
April 2024
Duration: 3:10
Painting: Frida Kahlo Painting Self Portrait.
Remix of Vals Alejandra by Enrique Mora
Music for Danse Etoile Ballet (www.danseetoile.org) who will be performing Frida's Wings, a ballet based on the life and works of Frida Kahlo, June 2024 in Colorado.
Frida Kahlo was a Mexican painter known for her many portraits, self portraits and works inspired by the nature and artifacts of Mexico.  Her paintings often had strong autobiographical elements and mixed realism with fantasy. She is also known for painting about her experience of chronic pain. In most of her self-portraits, she depicts her face as mask-like, but surrounded by visual cues which allow the viewer to decipher deeper meanings. Aztec mythology features heavily in Kahlo's paintings in symbols including skeletons and skulls.  In the painting, Dream of The Bed, painted in the year of 1940, Frida expressed her feeling and interception of death, which depicts a skeleton on the canopy of her bed (as she had in her real life). Her husband, Diego Rivera called the Juda, Frida's lover, but Frida said it's just an amusing reminder of people's mortality. Frida Kahlo spent much of her life in pain.  As As a teenager she suffered a horrific bus accident which left her unable to have children and meant she needed more than 30 operations on her spine. Eventually her withered leg had to be amputated and she died at 47. She said in her diary: “Feet, why do I need you, if I have wings to fly”
For strings, piano, accordion and percussion.

OcSong  is proud to release the recording and video of “Beautiful and Wonderful ft Fred Wesley”.

A song about the simple complication of being misunderstood, wanting to express that it’s the beautiful and wonderful things that this person loves and encompasses. It’s existence amongst so much ugliness, is difficult to reconcile at times, but important to note.
It is a forever quest and search to find, create, see, feel, hear and well simply experience beautiful and wonderful things and put them back into the universe.
Here’s a small effort.
