My cover of the excellent Sufjan Stevens track.

Should Have Known Better (Sufjan Stevens Cover)

A polished version of Sufjan Stevens' track Should Have Known Better. Orchestral stuff and flutes.

Should Have Known Better 2.0 (Sufjan Stevens Cover)

Positivity [the practice of being or tendency to be positive or optimistic in attitude]

Positivity

My third - and probably final - version of this cover. Mixed down some of the vox, up with the piano and removed the flutes from the end coda.

Should Have Known Better 3.0(Sufjan Stevens Cover)

My latest song, made with Reason 10. Vocals + everything else by me. Hope you like it - I think it is among my best work.

How Was I To Know? (I Love You)

A new mix of an old song that was inspired by David Bowie, who had recently died.

The Sky Is Busy (2017 mix)

Lyrics:

and so in the end - it happened
we had been eating, laughing, drinking
I was hoping the night would never end
that’s when I saw him out there
the snowman, taking off with my childhood friend
where were they going? 
and what are we doing down here?
I could hear them singing this song

Anthem

I guess this one is, to some extent, inspired by Berlin's Take My Breath Away.

Lyrics:

I’m a lost New Year’s resolution
on a cold December evening
things I said, things I’ve done
don’t match one-to-one

I’m a fake ink declaration
I’m a load off someone’s chest
it seems I never remember
what’s for my own best

to treat you much better 
get my shit together
was my resolution
treat myself better 
turn lead into feather
just another resolution

I’m thinking where time has gone
could it be turned into a song
sincere or in jest, which is which,
when did I forget?

New Year's Resolution

Lyrics and chords:

C#   F#    D     B
take what you want, we’re 
in this together now
I hope you’ll like it much
though at times it might seem so hard

C#m    A    Dsus2      A
I’ll try to make this world be good to you
I’ll try to let the sunshine over you

to tell the truth I’m all in
nothing’s impossible
I’ll do it all for you and your mum, too,
you know it’s true

I’ll try to make this world be good to you
I’ll try to let the sunshine cover you

April 15

Moonbeam Hill

A classical-ish piece that reminds of the first days of spring...how it feels to wake up late in bed on a Sunday morning to the almost blinding sunlight.

First Day of Spring

First Day Of Spring

I'm all alone
nobody to blame
done playing that game
wishing I was somewhere else
someone else
and off my meds

I'm far from home
I'm still getting mail
to no avail
wishing I was someone else
someplace else
on my meds

I'm All Alone

Aphex Twin was initially my inspiration. Lost that in the process, I suppose.

What The Aphex (Self-Quarantine Day 5)

Creating new music is therapy for my soul. Radiohead is my biggest influence so don't be surprised if you hear some similarities. Other influences: Todd Rundgren, Brian Eno, Elliott Smith, Wilco, Sigur Ros, The Flaming Lips, Bill Fay etc.
