ON MY OWN

"This song was inspired by the global crisis of 2022. The title came about as I wanted to write a Rock track that would blow the speakers and wake everybody up then lyrically it became a kind of social commentary and a call for world leaders to make positive change meanwhile everybody is doing the very best they can in their situation and living in hope”. 

A song about positive change. To be played LOUD 🤘😎🤘🎸 - “WAKE UP”

I'm a statistic
I'm an addict
In my own mind
I've been sleeping in my car
I've got no fuel, by the roadside

Do you take back what you said to me?
Do you recall what you promised me?

Wake up
Wake Up
We're dreaming while you're sleeping
While you're sleeping 
We've got to keep on our mission
You've got to make a decision
Wake Up
Wake Up
Stop sleeping

It's unforgivable
Whose circumstance is now critical?
Do you stand in the firing line or sit back and watch what's mine be taken away?

My feet on the ground is all that is real
Did you hear about me?

America
BY CLAUDE MCKAY (1921)
Although she feeds me bread of bitterness,
And sinks into my throat her tiger’s tooth,
Stealing my breath of life, I will confess
I love this cultured hell that tests my youth.
Her vigor flows like tides into my blood,
Giving me strength erect against her hate,
Her bigness sweeps my being like a flood.
Yet, as a rebel fronts a king in state,
I stand within her walls with not a shred
Of terror, malice, not a word of jeer.
Darkly I gaze into the days ahead,
And see her might and granite wonders there,
Beneath the touch of Time’s unerring hand,
Like priceless treasures sinking in the sand.

A song about the northern lights and their mysterious appearance in unusual circumstances a long, long time ago...

I hear the cries of winter I cant stand to see the sight
Like waves they came crashing but now lie  still there in the night

Its far too late for many lying on once peaceful land
I wonder who if any fell directly by my hand

The morning brings a shiver as I lay behind the  wall
But I cant stay much longer as I hear the fallen call.

Shadows cast by the setting sun another days work is done
Close my eyes but I can't sleep through the long cold night

I feel the light burning in my eyes as I gaze at the distant sky
All around me I can see the northern lights.

Each winter here in the UK, small birds enact one of natures great spectacles. Each evening flocks ranging from a few hundred to over 100,000 individual Starlings form up into a single flowing entity swirling above their communal roosting sites. 
Why they do this is not fully understood, with theories ranging from a strategy to distract predators, to a grand display designed to draw more birds to the flock for the purpose of maximising the body heat being generated by the mass of the flock in the roost. 
Whatever the purpose of this behaviour it creates a unique and magical aerial display of great beauty.

The track began with the repeating mallet sequence, then the strings and lastly the piano. I'm finding myself increasingly drawn to improvising around basic chord progressions at the moment and this is another product of this approach. I'm  resisting the temptation to quantize or mess around with the midi in post, so it's all as played and of the moment. 

Thanks for listening, it's really appreciated. 

Murmuration

This is a new song about love and support in very difficult, emotional times. 
Best with headphones. 

Lyrics: 

We hideaway to heal you

Flaking paint on our hotel room window is out of step with the rest of the room
But dark green walls and patterned bathroom tiles, and a fire that offsets the winter gloom,
and a bed with soft pillows,  a huge warming quilt, with coffees and biscuits and tea,
all provide refuge, an oasis of calm, against the storms that life has sent with ferocity….

you said your sad goodbye

Inside here, its peaceful and kind, away from the shock and loss and devastation
But flashbacks of the bedside, final sad hours, medicines and medics and sleep deprivation,
final conversations, the snatching of memories in short breathless whispers, and the final release, with a sigh, tears, black dresses and ties and a eulogy by brothers and sister
Are still there, but there’s comfort in this quiet isolation

We hide away to heal you, you can recharge and get some peace
To shield you from the whirlwind, and let the pressure ease
So you can feel stronger, and able to take the strain
Yes we hide away to heal you

In an old English town, deep inside Sussex, with oak doors and old pubs and grey chimney smoke
surrounded by fields and full bloated river where we walked for miles, held hands and got soaked
then back to the hotel for swimming and resting, tv, hot baths and loving,
reading books, watching people, we stretched out and enjoyed the freedom of just doing nothing

Sleep deeply or talk if you want 

We hide away to heal you, you can recharge and get some peace
To shield you from the whirlwind, and let the pressure ease
So you can feel stronger, and able to take the strain
Yes we hide away to heal you
Yes we hide away to heal you
And it’s all because we love you 
And we’re all here for you

James Whiteman Copyright December 2022

We hideaway to heal you

Debra 's been generous enough to let me try to sing something over her beautiful "Song for the morning ". Thx a million my dear friend :))

Morning Song 

you feel my gaze and you wake up
and then slowly you seek my voice
when you have so much trouble waking up from sleep
I want to be near you
because you're looking at me with that unmistakable look because you squeeze my hand
to say "it's forever "
so I wrote this morning song for you

Chanson Du Matin (translated) w/ Debra Buesking
