Wild Again

He told me he would ‘love me always’ but that was a lie! This song is about freedom. About walking away when things don’t feel right. 

I have thought about this song for such a long time. I wanted to write something that wasn’t just another song, but something that gave you hope.
This is the song you play when you suddenly doubt yourself. It’s the song you play for courage to walk away from something or someone. 
It’s the song you play at night when you are alone with your thoughts, and the voice in your head casts doubt on your most difficult decision. 
Karma!

Lyrics - 

It’s only been a month
Anniversary 
Enough was enough
I set myself free

I’m calling your bluff 
I’m sure your ex would agree 
Remember you told me she was crazy 
Learning a lot about you lately 

Turns out we’ve both heard the same empty promise 
Scars in all the same places
Everyday you’d say i’ll love you always 
Everyday LYA

You said this love was for the rest of your life 
Warning signs yeah they couldn’t get any higher
I should have seen it coming in those eyes 
Set your promise on fire  
Guess that makes you a liar 


Was good while it lasted 
Said nobody ever 
One day I might come back to ya
How about never 

Still feel it in my gut 
Sure your ex would agree 
Remember you told me she was crazy 
Learning a lot about you lately 

Turns out we’ve both heard the same empty promise 
Scars in all the same places
Everyday you’d say i’ll love you always 
Everyday LYA

You said this love was for the rest of your life 
Warning signs yeah they couldn’t get any higher
I should have seen it coming in those eyes 
Set your promise on fire  
Guess that makes you a 
L.Y.A.

L.Y.A (Love you always) (Liar)  OUT NOW

(No AIGen inside. My voice and VST Intruments)
While we play at scaring each other, so-called great wizards and prophets of AI are pillaging the kingdom. Will you be able to recognise them ?

- Sam, heralding the era of AI as a quasi-prophecy
- Elon, who dreams of galaxies as much as AI
- Satya, the embodiment of the ‘global system’, integrating AI into every layer of the digital world
- Jensen, who ‘sells the keys to the future’
- Dario, who wants to build intelligences ‘that understand the world’ 

-----
I watched Sam, the Prophet of Code
Speak of visions that bend the road
Here's the glow that I don’t see
This future won’t set me free

Elon is the Weaver of Stars
He's building castles beyond Mars
I climb the heights, but I don’t dare
To trust the worlds he claims to care 

Five for the kingdom
Selling AI all around
Money will be found somewhere
Fight for the kingdom
Selling the world by the pound
And bury wisdom somewhere

Satya, the Architect of All
Plans his empire, both grand and small
Each system bends to his cold will  
And yet the hunger lingers still

Jensen, the merchant of vanity
Sells the power of AI as a fantasy 
We buy these lies and scarce resources 
He gets richer on his promises 

Dario, the creator of worlds
Shapes illusions from simple words
Virtual worlds that would like us forget
That our world is the only one we'll get 

Five for the kingdom
Selling AI all around
Money will be found somewhere
Fight for the kingdom
Selling the world by the pound
And bury wisdom somewhere

My friends
We don't want a king
And I hope we can always sing

J'ai regardé Sam, le prophète du code
Parler de visions qui changent le cours des choses
Voici la lueur que je ne vois pas
Cet avenir ne me libérera pas

Elon est le tisserand des étoiles
Il construit des châteaux au-delà de Mars
Je grimpe vers les sommets, mais je n'ose pas
Faire confiance aux mondes dont il prétend se soucier 

Cinq pour le royaume
Vendant l'IA partout
On trouvera l'argent quelque part
Se battre pour le royaume
Vendre le monde au poids
Et enterrer la sagesse quelque part

Satya, l'architecte de tout
Planifie son empire, à la fois grand et petit
Chaque système se plie à sa volonté froide  
Et pourtant, la faim persiste

Jensen, le marchand de vanité
Vend le pouvoir de l'IA comme un fantasme 
Nous achetons ces mensonges et ces ressources rares 
Il s'enrichit grâce à ses promesses 

Dario, le créateur de mondes
Façonne des illusions à partir de mots simples
Des mondes virtuels qui voudraient nous faire oublier
Que notre monde est le seul que nous aurons 

Cinq pour le royaume
Vendant l'IA partout
On trouvera l'argent quelque part
Se battre pour le royaume
Vendre le monde au poids
Et enterrer la sagesse quelque part

Mes amis
Nous ne voulons pas de roi  
et j'espère que nous pourrons toujours chanter

5/4 the Kingdom

Written and recorded for the first dance st our wedding. also will be on my 2026 album.

Four Simple Words

When you look at the weather it is a lot like Life, it moves in Cycles, Good weather, Bad weather, Sunshine, Rain, Day time , Night time, and in life we have Good times, Bad times, Happy times, Sad times, we go though darkness and hopefully end up in the light. 
This song compares Life to the weather and it looks like sun is coming out once again after a period of Mist and Rain. 

Written and performed by : Johnny Mc Farlane

Trip Hop Singer Songwriter and Music Producer Vanessa Tottle brings to you a new vocal track called Can I go now?  Written in Dec 2023, after the passing of her mother in law, Vanessa felt compelled to write, what she has now called - a love note to her 4 children - penned and sung from the heart, the words that June could no longer say to her beloved children.  

With a vintage vocal, a hint of an ever slight reverb, together with the emotional tremble in her voice at times, surrounded by a kick and a dreamy sax that seems to, all on its own, tell a story of what Vanessa refers to, as an iconic woman that she got to love for 25 years. 

Vanessa says “I believe that the words, references to the sand,  were all meant to come together, even down to the tremble in my voice at times.  Ben, my sound engineer asked if I wanted to leave that raw tremble in and I said yes - I needed every emotion to be present”.

Can I go now? Will be available on all streaming platforms 5 Dec 2025 - Let Vanessas last song release for the year take you on an ear worm Trip Hop journey.

Lyrics
you woke up in fear
on frozen ground
your soul is gone , you felt like a dead 
the pain is real 
you tried to escape 
deny your fear

getaway you burn inside
and stay awake 
cause are alive
getaway you burn inside
and stay awake 
cause are alive

you buried in hate 
your days are gone 
you need to return
you wasted your mind
there is no life 
you falling down , you falling deep

getaway you burn inside
and stay awake 
cause are alive
getaway you burn inside
and stay awake 
cause are alive

you woke up in fears
on frozen ground
your soul is gone , you felt like a dead 
the pain is real 
you tried to escape 
deny your fear

Through Ashes

This is the intro and part 1 of my trilogy "Mom" (instrumental version) full vocal version will be out soon with the other parts :) 

Mom (instrumental)

All these times
lost my mind
Can’t get out
trapped, unfound

Would you cry now?
If I die tonight
would you right now?
stay and pray for me

Would you cry now?
if I leave this world behind
would you right now?
try to clear my mind

Erase this life of mine
Won’t try another time
A cage my mind creates
locked, in a cruel place

All of those times
lost my mind
Can’t get out
trapped, unfound

Would you cry now?
If I die tonight
would you right now?
stay and pray for me

Would you cry now?
if I left this world behind
would you right now?
try to clear my mind

Erase this life of mine
Won’t try another time
A cage my mind creates
locked, in a cruel place

But from my thoughts I can’t hide
No one gets out alive!

Nooooooo!

Demons are calling my name
will I fight back
or play their game?

Erase this life of mine
Won’t try another time
A cage my mind creates
locked, in a cruel place

Erase this life of mine
Without you I won’t fight
A cage my mind creates
locked, in a cruel play
