I felt like this one needed the extra time to unfold and develop in the direction it wanted to go, could be my longest solo piece yet! My songwriting process has moved almost entirely to Ableton Live and I'm find it to be such an inspiring workflow. This is yet another recent track where I'm having fun weaving in the guitar.

Hands on the Wheel

My musical month of may wouldn't be complete without some Andrew Lloyd Webber tune added into the mix, wouldn't it. And as my dear sister remarked, it also wouldn't be quite complete without the Phantom...yea, sure...
So, on special request, I present to you "Till I Hear You Sing", the Phantom's opening song to The Right Honourable Lord Lloyd-Webber's 2010 sequel to his long-runner "The Phantom of the Opera" - "Love Never Dies" - possibly the most unnecessary musical ever, but he sure can write songs.

The music was provided by my dear Helen.

Hopefully you'll enjoy the show :)

Talking about our lifetime

Let’s not mince words here. Trump is the embodiment of corruption, greed, and incompetence. He’s a man who has spent his entire life looking out for himself, exploiting others, and leaving chaos in his wake. As De Niro so eloquently put it: *“He’s a dog. He’s a pig. He’s a con. He’s a bullsh*t artist. He’s a mutt who doesn’t know what he’s talking about.”* This isn’t just about politics—it’s about morality. It’s about standing up to a man who has no respect for the rule of law, no respect for the truth, and no respect for the American people.  

Trump’s presidency was a disaster. He divided the country, emboldened hate, and failed to deliver on his promises. He’s a man who thrives on chaos, who lies with every breath, and who cares only about his own ego. As De Niro said: *“He’s a punk, he’s a dog, he’s a mutt. He doesn’t know what he’s talking about. He’s an idiot. He’s a fool.”* And yet, here we are, facing the possibility of him returning to power. We cannot let that happen. We cannot allow this man to continue to poison our democracy.  

This is not just about Trump—it’s about the people who enable him. The sycophants, the cowards, and the opportunists who stand by his side and allow his corruption to flourish. They are just as guilty as he is. As De Niro said: *“They’re all scum. They’re all mutts. They don’t know what they’re talking about.”* We need to hold them accountable. We need to stand up and fight back.  

The stakes are too high to sit on the sidelines. This is about the soul of our nation. It’s about protecting our democracy, our values, and our future. We cannot afford to let Trump and his enablers win. We must vote, we must organize, and we must make our voices heard. As De Niro said: *“We’re gonna fight back. We’re gonna fight back with everything we’ve got.”*  

So let’s do this. Let’s come together and defeat Trump once and for all. Let’s show the world that we are better than this. That we will not tolerate corruption, lies, and hate. That we will stand up for what’s right. As De Niro said: *“We’re gonna win. We’re gonna win because we have to.”*  

This is our moment. This is our fight. Let’s get to work.

Dirty Old Seventies New York by Oussama Arichi & Nadia Selvaggi

She wanted a conversation, I just wanted sleep.
She wanted the finer things in life, I just wanted cheap.
She wanted truth, but that’s a hill that’s far too steep to climb.

She wanted to move much faster than I thought safe or wise.
She wanted to tell it like it is, I was fine with lies. 
She wanted dreams to all come true, my best hope was one day at a time. 

The one thing we both wanted was the one thing we could not.
But that one thing kept us going, and gave us half a shot.

She read for entertainment, I just watched football.
Her dreams were filled with colors, I never dreamed at all
She spoke of love and wondered why conversations stall.

The one thing we both wanted was the one thing we could not.
But that one thing kept us going, and gave us half a shot.
And that one thing lived in silence, and that one thing lived in dread.
But that one thing kept us living, when everything else fell dead.
