Once Upon A Time...

Taken from the Astral Taxi album "Cydonia" 1996.
I really like the harpsichord in this track and the saxophone solo
Co written with Craig Small. I remember being asked to lay down some acoustic guitar solos near the end of the song which were completely unrehearsed. Most of them were captured on the first take. The pressure was on but that's when the magic happens!
Anyway I hope you enjoy this golden oldie from my past.

"Don't you watch me falling....
It's not a tragedy....
I just need your helping hand, to rescue me"

Cydonia

Rescue me

Rescue Me

This is one of my 'lounge series' acoustic thingies.  A simple one-take song/story for voice and piano.

Listen

Listen, I want to tell you, I respect you, I admire you
Listen, I want to open up, enfold you with my heart
You’re looking closed up, I’m feeling shut down, is there no place we can meet?
I’ve lost the shape now, words have vanished, think I’m talking in my sleep

And you’re not even listening, no you never even heard
Now you drown me out, shut me down, I’m bewildered and I’m hurt

Listen, I want to tell you, what’s the point in carrying on?
Listen, I’m giving up now, just can’t take this pain of losing
You’re looking closed up, I’m feeling shut down, is there no place we can meet?
I’ve lost the shape now, words have vanished, think I’m crying in my sleep

And you’re not even listening, no you never even heard
Now you drown me out, shut me down, I’m bewildered and I’m hurt

Listen, I need to tell you, how I love you deep inside
Listen, goddamn you listen, it’s no use, you run and hide
Been building walls up so long now, you’ve walled yourself away
If I come too close, you’re cornered and you toss my love away

Then I notice that you’re crying, in a small and subtle way
But there’s no way in to hold you, so I have to walk away
And I realise your pain now, the parts of me you heard
had to drown me out, had to knock me down, you couldn’t bear my words

And it’s all over now, the phone keeps ringing
and there’s really nothing left for us to say
it’s all over now, I watch you as you turn and walk away

I'm thrilled to share this incredible song by my friend Dirk Taubenheim https://soundcloud.com/the-gatsbys  who graciously allowed me to rework and produce it. The moment Dirk shared the song with me, I was captivated by his enchanting guitars and unique voice. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to Dirk for his kindness and trust in letting me collaborate on this song, bringing our styles together.
I want to extend my heartfelt appreciation to my girlfriend, Delphine, whose passionate involvement in this project has truly illuminated the song with her beautiful voice. Thank you, Delphine, for adding your shine to this collaboration.
We appreciate everyone for taking the time to listen, and your feedback is, as always, invaluable to us.

There's Still Something - The Gatsby's Feat. Richard Gonfrier

Will music change if I change? Even if I change the music, I won't change. I don't have enough songs to make music that is high-quality and has a rich aroma. Even so, when I release my recent songs and listen to them again later, I think they're great. When I think about my music in the middle of the night, I feel happy.

I should recycle me (293)
