Wow this is Manhattan Transfer level. Love it Milana!

love the dissonant chord structure going on in the background. This is so good.

this also brings a tear to my eye Milana because my late father loved Nat King Cole and always used to play his music, this is a very beautiful rendition

@user-138663860: :) Thank you very much, Sandy!

absolutely brilliant Milana, enjoyed listening very much....

A new sound ?

I wrote this song in 2002 about how sometimes we become haunted by the memory of a first love or someone special we have lost in our lives. Sharri sang this song beautifully way back in 2002. I had the pleasure of recording her singing some of my songs and she did an outstanding job on all of them. I wish I would have been a better musician with better equipment back then but I will be producing several more videos of her singing my songs in the future. I have like 8 or 9. The video is very spooky but artsy as well. I hope everyone remembers their first love. Is anyone still haunted by that love? If you are, come join me, down memory Lane!😱

“HAUNTED”

HAUNTED,
THAT’S WHAT I’VE BECOME,
SO HAUNTED,
FROM NOW ON,
EVER SINCE THE DAY I LAID EYES ON YOU,
I KNEW I’D NEVER SAY GOODBYE TO YOU,
IT’S PLAIN TO SEE,
I WILL ALWAYS BE,

SO HAUNTED,
AND UNDER YOUR SPELL,
I’M HAUNTED,
IT’S JUST AS WELL,
‘CAUSE I AM BUT A KINDRED SPIRIT WHO,
WILL ALWAYS BE IN LOVE WITH YOU,
AND FOREVERMORE BE HAUNTED TOO,      
     
[lead]

SO HAUNTED,
AND UNDER YOUR SPELL,

IT’S JUST AS WELL,
‘CAUSE I AM BUT A KINDRED SPIRIT WHO,
WILL ALWAYS BE IN LOVE WITH YOU, 
AND FOREVERMORE BE HAUNTED TOO.

When I make music, I often think of the people who have gone...

Gone

But the one who stands firm to the end will be saved (Math. 24:13)

Simple and old fashioned singer / songwriter piece, first penned when I was a fresh faced 18 year old! 
Slight Country flavour in this version but originally influenced by The Velvet Underground's "Lisa Says" and "Sweet Jane" :-)

Jane (2024 rework)

Am I Made of Glass?" by Dancy

From the album The Diary of Dancy, "Am I Made of Glass?" is a poignant and deeply personal track that delves into the struggles and vulnerabilities of growing up. Dancy, navigating the turbulent years of 13 to 19, expresses the pain of feeling different, the sting of bullying, and the longing for a place where dreamers can truly shine. With raw lyrics and a haunting melody, this song captures the essence of a sensitive and gifted child trying to find their way in a world that often feels cold and unkind. Let Dancy's journey resonate with you as she transforms her everyday challenges into a powerful anthem of resilience and hope.

Dusty Hands and a Yield Sign

George Clementi wrote the lyrics and sings this humorous song,   along with playing the guitar tracks. The music is written and produced by Dave Heffner in the classic country style.
LYRICS
Verse 1
Woke up this morning ‘bout half past four.
Stopped me in the hallway before I reached the door.
“You never seem to pay attention when I want to talk.”
“You always say you’re tired when I ask you for a walk.”
“I need to know you love me ‘cause I’m not too sure.”
“One more thing, Baby, that hurts me to the core,
You seem a little distant and you don’t call me ‘Baby’ no more.”
Verse 2
What you think you’re see’n ain’t exactly what it seems.
You’re a special lady. The woman of my dreams.
You’re such a good cook you could work at Benihanas.
Your biscuits and gravy’s much better than my Mama’s.
Your legs are nice and strong and you got a special charm.
I’ve seen you walk a mile with a baby in each arm.
You’re a grown up lady and I can’t call you “Baby” no more.
Bridge
Piano - Dave
Guitar - George
Verse 3
You see some other women and you think that they look better.
Guess you haven’t seen yourself in my favorite blue sweater.
Got you an iPhone ‘cause I know you like to talk.
While you had a conversation, you shoveled our whole walk.
I guess what I am sayin’ is my love still grows.
You’re a special lady from your head to your toes.
You ain’t no baby and I can’t call you “Baby” no more.
You ain’t no baby and I can’t call you “Baby” no more.

Un grand merci à Lena pour cette fabuleuse interprétation, sa voix est à mon goût une des meilleures que j'ai pu entendre .. 
"Mathieu" est le héros du film "une place au soleil" de rené VAQUIER, j'avais utilisé à l'époque "vocalise" pour obtenir la voix que l'entend sur la musique originale, mais la voix de Lena apporte des émotions supplémentaires, une couleur différente, une sorte de magie .. pour reprendre les mots de mon ami Steph OUNA, c'est comme si il y avait un instrument supplémentaire !!! 

Cette version a été faite le 14 Mars 2019 en même temps que la version soft et mise en ligne le 7 Mai 2019 en hommage à mon père, pour apaiser un peu ma peine qui ne cesse de grandir, il repose en paix depuis le 7 Mai 1992.

Merci pour votre soutien.

It was kind of a personal request coming from my husband: he wanted me to sing this song that always leaves him in tears... Then he asked me to make an arrangement for a choir. The version he loves has strings on it but he thought to make an all acoustic version in our studio... and since we don't have strings.. but have my voice.. so he got this idea - to record a "choir" of me. It was the first time we actually arranged nine voices!! Seven voices singing the harmony and two more singing short melodies. And, well, the lead vocal as well. It was a nice challenge. We hope you'll enjoy our rendition.

"Nature Boy". Performed by Milana Zilnik

Playing piano since I was four and studied in a musical school for ten years. Though, I always felt that playing by notes and singing in a choir is not enough to become a musician. I needed to be able to play anything I want by ear so, by starting improvising, I've found my own style of playing. When I teach children to play piano or sing, I offer them improvisation right from the beginning. I wish I was taught that way, since until my mid-30s I had hard times to relax and believe in my ability to create my own music. Twelve years ago my husband (@arty-sandler) finally convinced me to record some of my improvisations and we opened this account on SoundCloud - it happened in July, 2012.

You won't find a single particular genre on my cloud: my musical tastes are rather eclectic. Jazz and soft rock are my favorites but I also play blues, classical, folk, middle-eastern, New Age, ambient and others. Piano and vocal are my main instruments but together with my husband we also experiment a lot with different arrangements and orchestrations. 

When we started uploading our music to SoundCloud back in 2012, it was first shy attempts to record my improvisations straight from a keyboard. Many things have evolved since then. Over the years we've grown into a professional recording and composing studio, with a conservatory grand piano in an acoustically treated room and a bunch of microphones and other recording equipment. We scored a few documentaries, short films and animations. This year my orchestral and piano solo works were performed by Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra for Bryan Arias’s ballet show based on “The Little Prince” story. We've published three books with my original scores for solo piano and released twenty original full-length albums (solo piano, multi-instrumental and original songs in various genres) and numerous singles that have been streamed over 70 million times across multiple platforms.

I am glad you stepped by into my musical world and appreciate your comments and following me.
