Fun tune about the peace loving folks of Planet Trillium and their excitement and ultimate dismay upon discovering Earth and all it's troubles. Inspired by the artwork of Wina Obake who was kind enough to do an original cover art for this song

Scream Dream

“OD” (prod.yoacasia)

‘don’t wanna feel’ is a song about when my dad left and the abandonment issues I developed from that, it was a really rough time for me at first but over time I realised that it was for the better after information about his behaviour was revealed to me, I still suffered from abandonment issues and I didn’t want my partner to leave like my dad did, this song goes between me singing about my dad and my experiences to the chorus talking about how I wanted my partner to ‘stay by my side, till I die’ I didn’t want to feel at that point of my life, it was a lot for me, this song is very personal and is actually my first full song :)

don’t wanna feel

English: This is a song based on a love story. It talks about a couple. One wants to step back because still influenced by past loves, and the other, whose love is so strong, would like them to forget the past and look straight ahead, in the same direction. It's difficult in love to always have both hearts perfectly in harmony, but it's entirely possible to build love a little more each day. Sometimes separations in love happen simply without any real reason. Love requires sacrifices, indeed, for it to shine endlessly. Everyone has certainly experienced a situation, joyful or painful, in love. This is the opportunity to talk about it. I wish you all to live solely with Love. Enjoy listening. Your opinions matter. Say what you think. Musically with love.

Français: C'est une chanson fondée sur une histoire d'amour. Elle parle d'un couple dont l'un veut prendre du recul parce que sous l'influence encore des amours du passé et l'autre dont l'amour est si vivant voudrait qu'ils oublient le passé et qu'ils regardent plutôt droit devant eux, dans la même direction. Il est difficile en amour d'avoir les deux cœurs à l'unisson à tout moment mais il est fort possible de construire l'amour chaque jour un peu plus. Parfois les séparations en amour sont tout simplement sans véritable raison. L'amour demande des sacrifices, c’est vrai, pour qu'il rayonne sans fin. Chacun a certainement vécu une situation, joyeuse ou douloureuse, en amour. C'est l'occasion d'en parler. Je vous souhaite à toutes et à tous de ne vivre que d’Amour. Bonne écoute. Vos avis comptent. Dites ce que vous en pensez.  Musicalement Amoureusement.

Español: Es una canción basada en una historia de amor. Habla de una pareja, una de las cuales quiere dar un paso atrás porque todavía está bajo la influencia de amores pasados ​​y la otra, cuyo amor está tan vivo, quisiera olvidar el pasado y mirar al frente. ellos, en la misma dirección. Es difícil en el amor tener ambos corazones al unísono en todo momento pero es muy posible construir el amor cada día un poco más. A veces las separaciones en el amor se producen simplemente sin ningún motivo real. El amor requiere sacrificios, es cierto, para brillar sin cesar. Seguramente todo el mundo ha vivido una situación, alegre o dolorosa, en el amor. Esta es la oportunidad de hablar de ello. Deseo que todos viváis sólo con Amor. Buena escucha. Tus opiniones importan. Dí lo que piensas. Musicalmente con cariño.

Arabic: إنها أغنية مبنية على قصة حب. تتحدث عن زوجين، أحدهما يريد التراجع لأنها لا تزال تحت تأثير حب الماضي والآخر، الذي لا يزال حبه حيًا، يرغب في أن ينسوا الماضي وينظروا إلى الأمام مباشرة لهم، في نفس الاتجاه. من الصعب في الحب أن يكون كلا القلبين في انسجام تام في جميع الأوقات ولكن من الممكن جدًا بناء الحب أكثر قليلاً كل يوم. في بعض الأحيان يكون الانفصال في الحب بلا سبب حقيقي. الحب يتطلب التضحيات، هذا صحيح، حتى يضيء إلى ما لا نهاية. لقد مر الجميع بالتأكيد بموقف، سواء كان بهيجًا أو مؤلمًا، في الحب. هذه هي الفرصة للحديث عن ذلك. أتمنى لكم جميعا أن تعيشوا فقط مع الحب. إستماع جيد. آرائكم مهمة. أقول ما هو رأيك. موسيقيا بمحبة.

Chinese: 这是一首基于爱情故事的歌曲。她谈到了一对夫妇，其中一个想要退后一步，因为她仍然受到过去爱情的影响，而另一个则希望他们忘记过去，直视前方。他们，同一个方向。在爱情中，两颗心始终保持一致是很困难的，但每天都可以让爱多一点点。有时爱情中的分离只是没有真正原因的。爱情需要牺牲，这是真的，这样才能光芒四射。每个人在爱情中肯定都经历过一种情况，或快乐或痛苦。这是谈论这个问题的机会。我希望你们都只带着爱生活。很好听。您的意见很重要。说出你的想法。音乐上充满爱意。

Runaway 

She was born in a town on the border,
Raised for the fourth of July,
She knew within 
She didn’t  fit in
Don't know why. 

She didn’t go looking for trouble,
But trouble was always round,
It was always the same,
No-one to blame
Was what she always found. 

Runaway and maybe you’ll find somewhere, a place,
A place to stay and feel that  you’re safe in your own space. 

She moved to a part of the country,
That soon didn’t want her around,
It wasn’t long before she’s moving on
Southern bound, from town to town to town. 

Met a young man by the roadside,
She just couldn’t run anymore,
He listened to all that she said
That no-one ever listened to before. 

Runaway and maybe you’ll find somewhere, a place,
A place to stay and feel that you’re safe in your own space,
But if the demons that you are running from are strong,
Then in your head you’ll find that they’ll follow on and on. 

She thought about all he had shown her,
And sensing her journey’s end,
She realised the safest place
Is where you finally find a friend. 

So don’t runaway and maybe you’ll find somewhere, a place,
A place to stay and feel that  you’re safe in your own space.

“hearts”

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!

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