This my first original track with my new band BLACK. Its just a work in progress at the moment, but I should have a finished track up soon! Let me know what you think! I'll take any feedback, good or bad.

(Black)Dawn of the Order-WIP

@wheelwright wrote the song after David Bowie died. He had a beautifully strong song and vocal, on a smaller arrangement of piano, some strings and brass pads.

Wheelwright then ran it past me and I immediately begged to be his Mick Ronson and Tony Visconti! We think we’ve ended up with a truly collaborative result that is much bigger in scope than the original; via a lot of close and truly enjoyable discussion and idea bouncing. It's always wonderful to work with truly gifted folk like Michael.
  
@wheelwright: Concept, words, vocals, chord structure and vocal melody, piano, some strings and brass.

@phil-mcwalter: Guitars, trumpets, drums and percussion, bass, choir, bells, synths, cello, extra strings, overall production on all parts, mixing and mastering.

Song For A Fallen Rockstar

Well there's a danger
If you're a rock star
And you live too long
They'll say you died too late to save your reputation

But what do they know
They still played the songs you sang
And printed photographs
Of you when you were young

Oh what do they know
Yeah what do they know
There can be no music in their souls

Just for a moment
Seemed like a star shone
Brighter than the sun

But on the next day
It was all explained away
And life just carried on

But this unbearable
Sense of impermanence
It builds us up
It cuts us down

But when the air is still
Just before the dawn
I think maybe
Oh just maybe
I could find my way back home

Then all the bad girls sing along
Coz all the good girls couldn't come
To your performance

And as the closing credits roll
All the kids get up to go
Oh maybe someone shed a tear
But we'll never know
And I begin to realise
I'm not so good at letting go

They'll try to break into your mind
They'll try to steal away your strangeness
But there’s no future with no engine of desire
Oh who’s going to paint those pictures
Who’s going to set the world on fire

Oh who needs structure for the sake of structure
Who needs love for the sake of love
When your daddy said "history repeats..." you said
"I don't wanna to hear about that..."

And when they took him away he said
"Please don't test my blood, in case it's already cold"

And we made up all these stories
But they turned out to be true
But we’ve got to make a new life
Anywhere but here

And we ran before the flood
And we thought our hearts would burst
But it turns out we were young
And so we didn't die

And we ran before the flood
And we thought our hearts would burst
And I took your hand in my hand
And we ran for miles and miles

And I'm dreaming that I'm lying here
With my back against the snow
I'm reaching for the stars
But the earth won't let me go
They say there's nothing left now
But something still remains
Yeah

There's something out there...

SONG FOR A FALLEN ROCKSTAR (with overture) Wheelwright & Phil McWalter

This is a song written by the very talented Phil McWalter with the incredible Rick Medlock on drums. Phil asked if I would like to put some guitar on this song and I asked Hedd  to sing on the end. Hedd and I came up with these lyrics based on Phil's title, believing the only way we can move forward in the USA is if our government can find common ground that benefits all Americans. Phil and Rick did such a great job  with this song and it's an honor to be included.
Phil-guitars,bass, keys, creation of music
Rick-Drums
Hedd-Vocals
Tom-electric and acoustic leads

Lyrics:
Come together America
Lift your eyes up America
Stand together on common ground
Its my prayer for America

A Prayer For America by Phil McWalter with guests

An original song in celebration of Jimi... play it loud enough for him to hear! :-)

Some Kinda Voodoo Chile

Well the wind dropped just for a moment, the whole scene went kinda still
The guy on the sidewalk picking pockets turned and looked at me and whispered “what the hell you doing man?”
I looked blank and showed him the palms of my hands, "nothing up my sleeves..."
He said "there’s something different ‘bout you...
You some kinda voodoo chile?
You some kinda voodoo chile?"
And then he ran just as the storm kicked in…

Well the birds were blotting out the sky with amazing patterns ‘gainst the darkening clouds
Everyone stopped to watch, I cried aloud “Lord, my train is coming“ and as the engine thundered in, the birds dropped out of the sky 
And the porter said "there’s something different ‘bout you...
You some kinda voodoo chile?
You some kinda voodoo chile?"
And then they all flew just as the storm kicked in…

You some kinda voodoo chile?

You some kinda voodoo chile?
You some kinda voodoo chile?

I was wandering through the desert with a girl I had just met
When the lightning hit a joshua tree ‘bout three feet to my left
I kept on singing my love song, pretended I hadn’t heard
But a voice came out of the dark clouds above and rumbled "there’s something different ‘bout you
You some kinda voodoo chile?
You some kinda voodoo chile?
You some kinda..."

(And so we ran just as the storm kicked in…)

She was thinking that breaking habits is a cleansing experience.
He was literally breaking everything that was within the reach of his hands.

They both had it all wrong for a while. It was furious and raw, while their love was boiling with...

ANGER... The seventh track from my new album "Yet Another Love Story", telling the story of my love and music: from the anticipation of the first date, from the surprise and joy of new relations to the moments of doubt and fear, disgust and anger, followed by guilt, sadness and contemplation. But above all it always comes down to trust and love. 

"Yet Another Love Story" - the first album recorded on my acoustic grand piano, was released on 29th of March, 88th day of the year -
 the Piano Day! The album was accepted on Pandora and received a high praise from reviewers! I have a small lot of CDs to sign :)

Instrumental Cover of Alice In Chains "Nutshell" based on the acoustic performance on "MTV Unplugged". I remember when I first saw and heard that opening song, it struck me just how hurt and sick and sad Layne looked. I truly think that no band has ever - or probably ever will - convey true sorrow and resignation quite like those guys did.

Please feel free to comment. I am still trying to get the hang of recording, mixing and mastering so if you have any constructive criticisms, please let me know (hopefully in a constructive way). Thanks
