Grabado en 2024    
Me acosté                                   Em-B5
Y entonces desperté                F#5-A5
En la luz 
Reze en un ataúd 
Ya no hay más 
Menos mal 
Ahí abajo 
Ya no veré los rayos 
Pero igual                                  D-Em
La máscara caerá                    A5-F#5
Cuando está 
Casi nada es real 
Son los pies 
No dejo de mover
No es tan tarde 
No se si perderé

In this final version (here the draft: https://soundcloud.com/michele-ansani/sunday-derby) I have the honour of adding the contribution of Manuel Pietra (take a listen to his tracks: https://soundcloud.com/mozartwolfy81), my friend and my daughter's piano teacher, in the first and in the last part of the piece.
For those (like me) born in the late 1950s and raised in Milan in the 1960s, Sunday of derby (AC Milan vs. FC Internazionale) was the most beautiful and most feared day of the year. The three sections of the piece correspond to three easily understood moments: before the match (Saturday night and Sunday morning); during the match (Sunday afternoon); after the match (Sunday evening and Sunday night). All imperfections (as usual) are mine.
As it's clear in the end of the second part of the piece, my team won the match that time (so many years ago ...). I'm sorry to say that Manuel is a fan of the other Milan team, the one that lost the game in the circumstance mentioned ...

The Greatest

Love is patient, love is kind,
does not envy, takes the time;
endures all things, 
does not rejoice in pain,
never proud, or unkind

We knew in part at one time,
now the partial is done away
One time I saw in a mirror, dimly,
now we are face to face

[chorus]
When faith, hope, and love abide,
the greatest of them all is love

If I speak with the tongues of men and angels
but do not have love,
I have become a noisy gong,
fit for none

If I knew every truth
and have the faith to move mountains,
without love,
in the end,
it all amounts to nothing

[chorus]

If I give away all I possess,
and have the courage to face death,
If I don’t have love
in my understanding,
all the profits 
amount to nothing

Love is patient, love is kind,
does not envy, takes the time;
endures all things, 
does not rejoice in pain,
never proud, or unkind

[chorus]
When faith, hope, and love abide,
the greatest of them all is love

The Greatest (Paploviante & Cosmic Keanu)

There is an order in all life. Birth, aging, sickness and death. Spring, Summer, Autumn and winter. You see it in everything that grows. The order never changes. Winter can not come after Spring. Why would the life of a human being follow a different law of life?

     This is my new Christmas song for the year. It has a double meaning for me and that's why I call it "The Last Christmas"! Charlie did a good job singing it and I joined him in spots! I wrote it during the hot summer this year, so go figure!!😂 I used up all the tracks I had available to record it (I'm old school, give me a break!) and I had tons of fun recording all the parts too! The song at the end during the credits is another Christmas song I wrote back in 2001 called "Have A Very Merry Christmas" with Sharri singing and Charlie and me doing background vocals. Check both out I have a video each one! This video was super fun to create, I spent a lot of time and effort on it, the sleigh ride with Santa is especially cool! I added a lot of eye-candy and special audio effect here and there. This video is for the whole family so feel free to share it with loved ones and watch it together.

Now for the secret double meaning of this song!! It's a sad tale, so prepare yourselves! Back when I was in high school, back in ancient times, there was a very pretty girl in our English class named Chrissy, she was very nice and sweet, I sat next to her and she was very smart and let us dumb guys cheat off of her papers sometimes!😂 Anyway for almost the whole year I never realized that her real name was Christmas, we all called her Chrissy. There was something very sad about Chrissy, I didn't know what it was but the next year Chrissy never returned to school? Later, I found out she had leukemia, I think? She never returned to school after that and some of the kids told me she had sadly passed away however I'm not sure about that but I never did she her again. So this song is for her and after all these years she popped back in my brain?! So let's all enjoy Christmas this year with family and friends because you never know when it will be your Last Christmas! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all and Happy New Year!! 🙏😎✌🏼🎅🧑🏻‍🎄🤶🌟💫☃️🎁🎈🪅🎊❤️💝

“THE LAST CHRISTMAS”

CHRISTMAS, THE LAST CHRISTMAS,
CHRISTMAS, IS HERE AGAIN,
CHRISTMAS THE LAST CHRISTMAS,  
CHRISTMAS, DON'T LET IT END,                  

WILL WE LAUGH? WILL WE CRY?
WILL WE SAY OUR LAST GOODBYES?
OH CHRISTMAS, SWEET CHRISTMAS,
PLEASE DON'T DIE,
     
CHRISTMAS, THE LAST CHRISTMAS,
CHRISTMAS, THE TIME HAS COME, 
CHRISTMAS, THE LAST CHRISTMAS,
CHRISTMAS, WHAT HAVE WE DONE? 
 
WILL WE SMILE? WILL WE WEEP?
COUNT OUR BLESSINGS IN OUR SLEEP?
OH CHRISTMAS, FORGIVE US,
CHRISTMAS PLEASE,
SWEET CHRISTMAS PLEASE,
  
SNOW IS HERE, LIGHTS ARE BRIGHT,
THE TREE IS TRIMMED WITH LOVE TONIGHT,
RUDOLPH'S READY FOR HIS FINAL FLIGHT,
AH AH, AH AH, AH AH, AH AH,      
   
WILL WE SMILE? WILL WE WEEP?
COUNT OUR BLESSINGS IN OUR SLEEP?
OH CHRISTMAS, FORGIVE US,
CHRISTMAS PLEASE, SWEET CHRISTMAS PLEASE,  
BYE BYE CHRISTMAS, 
BYE BYE CHRISTMAS, 
BYE BYE CHRISTMAS,
BYE BYE.

Music and lyrics are like nitro and glycerin (TNT). I wrote a song the first time I picked up a guitar at 12. I love most 70s-90s rock and many popular songs. Also love indie and new artists! Ihave collaborated with Brad Anderson, Sean Thompson, Blue LeMeilleur, Kim Westwood, and Charles Rees and always look for new people!. I usually start a song with lyrics and then figure out music.

Thanks for listening!!

I’ve posted the entire suite “In case nothing happens” on YouTube, including the parts (7 and 8) that are still missing here, accompanied by a very simple video.


Hello! I’m a university professor of history who enjoys playing guitar and piano/keyboard, and occasionally composing — unpretentiously, just for fun. I’ve been here for at least 10 years, but only recently have I started using the platform for something other than just external digital storage.
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.
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.

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

I've posted some 'live' homemade performance here: https://www.instagram.com/michele_ansani/
