Here is an original song that I wrote called Forever Dreaming and is performed with my band Chocolate Fireguard... I believe that we are not meant to always dream of a better day tomorrow and instead that today could be the opportunity for our lives to truly start, no matter what our circumstances. This is what this song is about, I hope you can connect with it too and enjoy it.

Vocals: Eilidh Thomson
Bass: Findlay Glynn
Cajon: Robin Woods
Vocals and Acoustic: Myself

And massive thanks to Archie Baird for the recording and production on this song, without him this song wouldn't sound anything like as good as it does.

This Is Our God

I wrote a song, I recorded it and this is it...

The clouds are rolling in
And burning like fire
They're lighting up the night.
And when they break,
They'll bring the thunder
That calms my raging heart.

But I will go on, I will stay strong

For there are so many more songs to be sung,
So many battles still to be won
But I will sing, no I won't be silent!
I will sing at the top of my lungs
For you.

I will not forget
Where my home is
For that's where I long to be.
And when the sun sets
I'll keep on going
Even when I can't see.

And this means more than all the songs before,
The ones I sang as I walked to the door.
But now I've found some solid ground and I'm going to make a stand.

So Many More

Your Love Is A Song (Switchfoot cover)

Sat down and played to the computer... this is the result.

Sofa (Ed Sheeran Cover)

A demo of a song i wrote in the summer, i hope you enjoy!


So why are we pretending when we know this is the ending,
These are all our fears coming to life.
And it’s all out in the open, all our crazy mixed emotions
The feelings in this time of strife.

But here i am, standing on the edge of myself.
And here i am, ready to admit that i was wrong.

So please come back, please come back
I’m bending and i might just crack!
So please don’t go, please don’t go
Without you I just don’t know!
Of whether i’ll make it through today
And if I do whether i’ll find a way, to bring you back to me.
So please don’t go... ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh,

And we’re caught up in confusion and we’ve lost all our amusement.
Is this really our final fight?
And it was meant to be forever, but now it’s destined for the never.
The future doesn’t look bright!

But now you’re gone, faraway from where you belong,
But i hope you see, that you’re missing me!
And when you return, I’ll tell you that i’ll have learnt.
That you mean the world to me!

So please just stay, please just stay.
I much prefer it this way.
Cos i love you so, i love you so
And when it’s this way i know.
That we’re going to make it through today
And that we’re gonna be okay, and start loving each other again.
So please just stay.

So why are we pretending, like this is the ending?
We know we’re gonna be alright!

Pretending

A quick acoustic cover of Ben Howard's, Only Love. I apologise for the quiet vocals, it was late in the evening and my brother was sleeping... Excuses, excuses.
