Martin , so well written and sung.....just draws you in,  and Jens , mighty fine groove going on.

Super cool lyrics Martin and I love that vocal sound.  Nicely done my friend.

Excellent lyrics and vocals, this is HOT!!!!!!!! 

Really enjoying listening to your songs- really well written and produced xx

Wow. Utterly caught me surprise. This is BRILLIANT, you two. Great music Jens, fabulous production and sounscape but, Marty, you're astounding. Definitely into my Favourites From The Cloud. Truly superb. I'll bet Corinne loves this.

Can I say how much I love this again? Yes? Good...because I do.

The marvelous Jens Felger shared this music for collaboration. He marked it as hip hop, and after a couple of listens, this came to me. Written and recorded this fine frost-on-the-pumpkin morning of October 24, 2013. Yeah, I love soul.

Music by Jens Felger, lyrics and vocals by me. If you don't follow Jens, you owe to yourself to give his work a listen. One of the best: https://soundcloud.com/jens-felger

I could never be your teacher
I'm not wearing hearts
or patches on my sleeve
but I believe in learning
and I'm yearning for a new start
I catch myself daydreaming
scheming how to reach you
No I can't be your sugardaddy
or a trash talkin' superbaddy
I'm no gambler, no ramble round Joe
I like to take it slow
think before I go
and well I know you might
find that dull but in the lull
in a perfect moment there
make a connection feel
the convection the heat
a beat on a rain slick street
I'm nobody's savior
role model of behavior
yeah, I'm working on that
cut down on the fat, 
looking for the center
wherever that is at
I'm no kinda hero,
juke box, tragicomic
soap box, mega-manic
all I gots right here so
let me get near,
put down your phone
let me say it clear
I am your man,
ain't that what you need
I am your man
it's simple as can be
I am your man.



I Am Your Man/Canvas - Jens Felger Collaboration

2023 - For the past few months I've been working with Public Resource, a California based non-profit to release an extensive collection of older music for free use. In addition to audio, we'll be releasing the music as MIDI and musicxml. Last week we started posting a new featured piece every week on the Public Resource Soundcloud page (@PublicResource). Follow there, or look for frequent reposts here. It'll include classical music, pop music before 1927, ragtime, folk songs, and more. The main collection will be at the Internet Archive, and will be called the "Internet Jukebox". I'll post more about it as it grows.
