Eclectic, eccentric, and influenced by a lifetime of listening! My prime exposure to a variety of styles occurred in the 80’s,  when the charts had a distinctly vibrant mix of sounds and genre, but I have a fondness for every era.

Bob Seger once told the New York Times that "Like A Rock was inspired partly by the end of a relationship that had lasted for 11 years. You wonder where all that time went? But beyond that, it expresses my feeling that the best years of my life may have been in my late teens with no special commitments and no career". This iconic tune was used in an advertising campaign for Chevrolet trucks that ran from 1991 - 2004, making it indelibly associated with the vehicles. The song helped sell a lot of Silverados, and is considered one of the best choices for an ad campaign in The History of Music. 'Like a Rock' was the Title song from the thirteenth studio album of same name by American singer-songwriter Bob Seger, released in 1986. My own version humbly presented here with all due respect and appreciation for yet another Bob Seger Sparkly Gem. Did it in my own way, featuring Nylon Strings and Tele Tones floating around in the background.
"Like A Rock"
Bog Seger 
Stood there boldly
Sweatin' in the sun
Felt like a million
Felt like number one
The height of summer
I'd never felt that strong
Like a rock
I was eighteen
Didn't have a care
Working for peanuts
Not a dime to spare
But I was lean and
Solid everywhere
Like a rock
My hands were steady
My eyes were clear and bright
My walk had purpose
My steps were quick and light
And I held firmly
To what I felt was right
Like a rock
Like a rock
I was strong as I could be
Like a rock
Nothin' ever got to me
Like a rock
I was something to see
Like a rock
And I stood arrow-straight
Unencumbered by the weight
Of all these hustlers and their schemes
I stood proud, I stood tall
High above it all
I still believed in my dreams
Twenty years now
Where'd they go?
Twenty years
I don't know
I sit and I wonder sometimes
Where they've gone
And sometimes late at night
Oh, when I'm bathed in the firelight
The moon comes callin' a ghostly white
And I recall
I recall
Like a rock
Standin' arrow-straight
Like a rock
Chargin' from the gate
Like a rock
Carryin' the weight
Like a rock
Like a rock
The sun upon my skin
Like a rock
Hard against the wind
Like a rock
I see myself again
Like a rock
Oh, like a rock!

Last Night You took me home to you
You said you just need some one to hold you

Our souls are fused in the moonlight

someone to break your chain

THE YORKS - "Only To Find"

Mark says,
"Making music with Rodolfo is always exciting and often a challenge, although I know we both find it stimulating, as we always aim to reach high and this post is no exception. This new song, started its gestation almost a year ago, instantly showed a lot of promise and since has been through many stages of exploration and rounds of problem-solving. The painfully blunt lyrics were initially inspired by a friend's brutal relationship break-up, but the final result is much heavier. I hope you find it moving rather than disturbing, I was trying to match the mood of Rod's deeply dramatic music."

Rodolfo says,
"I think it's a fantastic song and you've done an amazing job on both the story and the vocals, especially those tough lines. When I was writing it, I just felt like a modern blues with a techno vibe was taking shape. The final sound was defined by the story and those really dramatic, emotional lyrics. You might want to make it clear that it's a fictional story to avoid giving our friends heart attacks."

We appreciate all of the kind support that the Soundcloud community has given our collaborations. Thanks for listening and sharing your thoughts, Mark and Rodolfo

Moments of stress,
How did you deal with the rest?
All that is left of you and me,
Is wrecked.
How can we expect,
To go on when there’s nothing at all left?
 
…Left in the lurch,
You should have done more research.
I was truly never a safe bet for you…
For you could have made,
A much better match than you did with me.
 
Open your eyes,
I promise you won’t be surprised,
It’s been there before you,
All along, all of the way…
…Way before you had sensed,
That we had got it all so wrong by then.
 
Moments of stress,
All such a mess,
It’s anyone’s guess,
How it all went so wrong?
Moments of stress,
No more nor less,
Need I express,
How it all went so wrong?

LYRICS

Every time that came through, I don’t know where you are.
Every time that we used to, That always on my mind.

Like I’m just alone in here with those people around.
But the sun reminds me you always by my side.

*Please stay for a while. Cause I don’t want to get up.

**The sky shouldn’t fading away
You should know that, I’m saying your name
Before the sky getting away, I gotta go
I’m on my way to you right now!


Every day you always here and you still by my side.
Every night that we are spend, It’s always on my mind.

(*),(**),(**)


Even though the sky can't keep the sun from fading away.
There’s nothing left to fear from here anyway.
Even if the sky falling apart to me right now.
There’s nothing make me afraid cause I’m here with you.

Change For You

Lyrics

Forget that anything's wrong.
I find it hard to do, without you everything's gone. 
Try to pull myself back together.
But still I'm clouded by stormy weather.
Time won't make anything right.
I wish that I could hold you, hold you so tight.
The world can be so cold, but we knew that.
I'd trade my life for yours, if I could do that.

Momma sang. 
Me something beautiful. 
As I went to sleep. 
Unafraid. 
Waiting so patiently. 
Soon you'll see.
Momma sang. 
A voice I know so well. 
Come what may
Now awake.
Comfortably waiting to be. 
With you someday. 

Please momma please don't cry.
Give me one last kiss and hug me goodbye.
It'll be ok, I'm going to a better place.
With ladybugs and purple flowers everywhere.
I cant wait to see your face.
You've got to be strong, you're right where you belong. 
The clock will run out someday, and then with me you'll stay. 

Momma sang. 
Me something beautiful. 
As I went to sleep. 
Unafraid. 
Waiting so patiently. 
Soon you'll see.
Momma sang. 
A voice I know so well. 
Come what may
Now awake.
Comfortably waiting to be. 
With you someday. 

Momma sang. 
Me something beautiful. 
As I went to sleep. 
Unafraid. 
Waiting so patiently. 
Soon you'll see.
Momma sang. 
A voice I know so well. 
Come what may
Now awake.
Comfortably waiting to be. 
With you someday.
