In Mist

"The Fog" came so my head could remain in the clouds while my feet are still planted firmly on the ground!

Lyrics:
The Fog 

Is this me?
What’s it mean?
That I’m floating?

When I’m floating…

Living light and warmth
In your arms I can feel
My cares disappear
I can see in your eyes
A sincerity that I’ve only
imagined in this life

I feel helpless
Inside the waves
Of pain, they
Come billowing down
Billowing down, billowing down
I am minuscule in a daze
Unfazed
And it’s weighing me down
Weighing me down
Weighing me down

And I know it’s just the mention
Of perceived fog
But I need redemption
Cuz I know if my intentions checked
out they’d be wrong

I feel helpless
Inside the waves
Of pain
Come billowing down
Billowing down, billowing down
I am minuscule in a daze
Unfazed
And it’s weighing me down
Weighing me down
Weighing me down

Is this me?
What’s it mean?

I can see in your eyes
A sincerity that I’ve only
Imagined in this life

Though I know it’s just the mention 
Of perceived fog.

Fantasiewelt

Ich sitze hier und grinse
zusammen mit John Lennon auf einer Insel
wunderbar, auch noch da ist Kurt Cobain
und vor ein paar Tagen erst, habe ich auch Elvis gesehen

Was, das wollt ihr mir nicht glauben?
Doch, meine Fantasiewelt, die könnt ihr mir nicht rauben
Alles so schön rund, kunterbunt und gesund

Jeder weiß alles, brauchen tun wir nichts
Geliebt wird das was gut ist, kein Gezeter, keine Tricks

Wir können vor dem schlafen gehen Schafe zählen
Müssen uns nicht durch die Tage quälen,
Wenn du Lust hast, dann mach was,
wenn nicht, dann lass das

Ich grinse als bestände die Luft nur aus Lachgas
Ich grinse als bestände die Luft nur aus Lachgas

Keine Armut, kein Streit, keine Kriege
Keine Armut, kein Streit, keine Kriege
Keine Armut, kein Streit, keine Kriege

Ich schließe meine Augen und Fliege
Ich schließe meine Augen und Fliege
Ich schließe meine Augen und Fliege
---------------------------------------

Fantasy World

I sit here and grin
on an island with John Lennon
wonderful, Kurt Cobain is also there
and just a few days ago, I also saw Elvis

What, you don't want to believe me?
But you can't take my fantasy world away from me
Everything is so beautifully round, colorful and healthy

Everyone knows everything, we don't need to do anything
What is loved is what is good, no complaining, no tricks

We can count sheep before going to sleep
We don't have to torture ourselves through the days,
If you feel like it, do something,
if not, then leave it

I grin as if the air was made of nitrous oxide
I grin as if the air was made of nitrous oxide

No poverty, no strife, no wars
No poverty, no strife, no wars
No poverty, no strife, no wars

I close my eyes and fly
I close my eyes and fly
I close my eyes and fly

Lyrics
Off the top ———-is where it’s at
unwrap this —————-gift RAP
hitting the streets—-it’s ——pure crack
Stone cold —-this trap ——TRACK!
Pool of knowledge ——-untapped
going —-in —-hard——we do that 
Better —-tighten up —-them bootstraps 
———SAY-——-“what the hell ——did Lou snap!!!”
swag baby —-The recap 
no snags—nah—we stop that!!!

Break the game down--it's a new map
Flow so rich--- better check that NASDAQ
Eyes on the prize---go the full lap
concrete jungle---stuck in the trap

[Verse]
From the alleys to the skyline---watch us elevate
Living large in the boroughs where we demonstrate
Every word a heavy weight--- every rhyme we detonate
New York state of mind---watch the Empire State

We on a mission---ain't no intermission, snap back
Murals on the walls--- street art on the subway track
Ambition in the air, we the kings--- claim the throne
Spittin' bars like bullets--- in this zone--- we at home

Icons of the asphalt--- legends in the flesh
Droppin' beats so heavy--it’s poundin' in your chest
From the 5 boroughs, anthems——- on full blast
Queens to the Bronx-- Brooklyn —-movin' fast
Elevate the hustle---the spirit never cracks
Struggle in the verses —-resilience in the—— tracks

Untapped

Bruno Cadillon (https://soundcloud.com/bruno-cadillon-847608847) proposed to me to write the lyrics turning into a song an instrumental track I had just uploaded to Soundcloud (Timelines, here: https://soundcloud.com/michele-ansani/timelines-final-draft). 
And here we have the song (see also https://soundcloud.com/bruno-cadillon-847608847/comment-fais-tu-ca-michele-ansanicab): is dedicated to Pierre Bonnard, a French painter (1867-1947) of the Nabis group, a post-impressionist movement. 
Thanks to Bruno - the piece is sung by him -, a true and versatile artist.

LYRICS

Commet fais-tu, ça, Pierre
Donner tant de vie
Commet fais-tu, ça, dis 

Derrière ta fenêtre
Il y a
Tant de couleurs claires
Tant de joies
Comment fais-tu ça, dis
Comment fais tu ça

Tous ces paysages  
Que tu voies
Ces chaises bancales
Cette simple table
Couleur sable

Toute cette douceur
cette chaleur
cela nous traverse
Nous transperce

Rester là peut-être
Que le temps s’arrête
Derrière ta fenêtre

Commet fais-tu ça pierre
D’un trait de lumière
Donner tant de vie

-----

How do you do that, Pierre
giving so much life
how do you do it, say 

Behind your window
There are
So many bright colours
So much joy
How do you do it, say
How do you do it

All these landscapes  
That you see
These wobbly chairs
This simple table
Brown and sandy

All that tenderness
all that warmth 
it goes through us
it pierces us

Stop there
maybe time may stand
behind that window

How do you do it, Pierre
To give the desire
How do you do it, say ... 

How can you, Pierre
With a stroke of light
To give so much life

------

Comment fais-tu ça [Michele Ansani & Bruno Cadillon]**

The Cliff

Cet album est un carnet musical où je mêle la Langue du Futur que j’ai inventée et sa traduction en français. J’y chante souvent avec Alouma Aves, musicienne rebelle venue de 5202 dans mon roman L’Autre Version de l’Histoire, et nos voix se croisent entre fiction et présent. Chaque titre est un passage : Ounloutéom ouvre un seuil sans clé, Oom répond à la falsification, Le Chant d’Héloïse garde la mémoire rebelle, Sirius ADN inscrit les étoiles dans le corps, Sulouma est un cri d’amour, Ditsemi une réponse claire, Shavalounka un souffle vivant. Création sonore expérimentale, une recherche qui donne corps à mon univers étendu, où chaque chanson rejoint mon imaginaire et mes récits. La musique porte les ondes de paix, la réponse circule.

🌐 English

A musical notebook weaving my Language of the Future with its French translation. Often with Alouma Aves (from 5202 in my novel), our voices meet between fiction and now. Each track is a passage—keyless threshold, answer to falsification, rebel memory, stars in the body, love’s cry, clear reply, living breath.

🇸🇦 العربية

هذا ألبوم/دفتر موسيقي أنسج فيه لغة المستقبل مع ترجمتها إلى الفرنسية. كثيرًا ما أُغنّي مع ألومة آفيس (من عام 5202 في روايتي)، فتلتقي أصواتنا بين الخيال والحاضر. كل مقطع عتبة ومعنى: جواب للتزوير، ذاكرة متمرّدة، نجوم تُنقش في الجسد، نَفَس حي.

🇩🇪 Deutsch

Ein musikalisches Notizbuch: meine Sprache der Zukunft mit französischer Übersetzung. Mit Alouma Aves (5202 in meinem Roman) kreuzen sich unsere Stimmen zwischen Fiktion und Gegenwart. Jeder Track als Übergang: Antwort gegen Fälschung, aufbegehrende Erinnerung, Sterne im Körper, klarer Bescheid, lebendiger Atem.

🇺🇦 Українська

Музичний щоденник, де моя Мова Майбутнього поєднана з перекладом французькою. Часто з Alouma Aves (5202 у моєму романі) — голоси між вигадкою і теперішнім. Кожен трек — перехід: відповідь на фальсифікацію, бунтівна пам’ять, зорі в тілі, ясна відповідь, живий подих.

🇻🇳 Tiếng Việt

Một cuốn sổ tay âm nhạc đan Ngôn ngữ Tương lai với bản dịch tiếng Pháp. Tôi thường hát cùng Alouma Aves (từ năm 5202 trong tiểu thuyết), giọng chúng tôi giao nhau giữa hư cấu và hiện tại. Mỗi bài là một lối qua: đáp lại giả tạo, ký ức nổi loạn, sao khắc vào thân, lời đáp rõ, hơi thở sống.

🇵🇹 Português (BR)

Caderno musical que entrelaça minha Língua do Futuro com a tradução em francês. Com Alouma Aves (de 5202 no meu romance), as vozes se cruzam entre ficção e presente. Cada faixa é passagem: resposta à falsificação, memória rebelde, estrelas no corpo, resposta clara, sopro vivo.

🇳🇬 Yorùbá

Ìwé orin kan níbi tí Èdè Ọ̀la mi darapọ̀ mọ́ ìtumọ̀ Faranse. Mo máa ń kọrin pẹ̀lú Alouma Aves (láti ọdún 5202 nínú ìtàn mi); ohùn wa pàdé láàrín àròsọ àti ìsinsin yìí. Orin kọọkan jẹ́ ìlàwọ̀n: ìdáhùn sí ìkànjẹ, ìrántí àtìpó, irawọ̀ nínú ara, ìdáhùn kedere, ìmísí alààyè.

Hello! I’m a university professor of history who enjoys playing guitar and piano/keyboard, and occasionally composing — unpretentiously, just for fun.
Most of my recordings (made with a KorgD8, Audacity, and more recently Reaper for MIDI and the Spitfire Audio libraries) are entirely homemade and decidedly imperfect.
My music includes old songs (all written back in the last century; here I’ve only shared the ones I’ve reworked in recent years) as well as both old and new instrumentals — usually in several versions, some of which eventually disappear because they’re simply unlistenable.

Thanks for stopping by and giving something a listen; in the description you’ll often find explanatory notes or translations of the lyrics.
Here I’ve discovered a community of talented musicians and songwriters, and plenty of beautiful music to enjoy. Whenever I like, comment, or repost a track, it’s always the result of attentive listening. For the same reason, I’m not interested in trading empty “likes” without real engagement, and I won’t reply to messages from would-be promoters — follower counts don’t matter to me in the slightest.

By popular demand (well, actually just my daughter’s — she insists it’s the “cooler” platform), I’ve finally started putting some of my music on Spotify too...

Update (2024, September 9). Completed the "AI & (fake) songwriting project". Here: https://soundcloud.com/mick-hansan 

P.S.: A prayer, a humble request to those who publish songs: use the description area to make the lyrics available... This would make listening to them more complete and enjoyable!
