love that hooky chorus and jangle pop tone, bravo!

Sorry for the delay but it was impossible for me to log in to souncloud earlier. I loved the guitars, they sound powerful and great. As always your songs have that special personal touch.

@user-936947521 thank you, my new one “proof.” Has just gone live. See what you make of it! Thank you!

We Are Not Robots

I don't know what she just did to me
I thought she was above such childish things
She said to me my truth will never change
But please don't expect me to act my age

Sometimes I just want to be child
Sometimes I want to get a little bit wild

Because we are not robots
Nah nah nah nah nah

Because we are not robots
Nah nah nah nah nah

She said people don't know me, they just see
My mistakes and eccentricity
When you get to know me you will see
I'm trying to escape reality

Sometimes I just want to be child
Sometimes I want to get a little bit wild

Because we are not robots
Nah nah nah nah nah

Because we are not robots
Nah nah nah nah nah

Nah nah nah nah nah
Because we are not robots
Nah nah nah nah nah

Because we are not robots
Nah nah nah nah nah

Sometimes I just want to be child
Sometimes I want to get a little bit wild

Because we are not robots
Nah nah nah nah nah

Because we are not robots
Nah nah nah nah nah

“This is to support the global Ehlers-Danlos Awareness Month campaign in May. The song title is inspired by the Ehlers-Danlos Society’s ‘Light It Up” Challenge whereby landmarks and buildings are lit up in orange to raise awareness. Please repost and spread the word - this is very important to me. Please head over to ehlers-danlos.com to support and learn more. Thank you.”

light it up. (For Ehlers-Danlos Awareness Month - MAY 2025)

1,2,3,4
If I could handle the pain as half as you do
I could be a better person 
I could be like you
Some days are dark 
Some days are better
Let’s light it up
Light it together 

Let’s go

Light it up
Spread the word 
Not all pain is seen
Your voice is heard
Shine your lights around the world
Light it up
Light it up, yeah

There’s complexity
Time to make it better
With unity we can get an answer 
An impossibility becoming probable 
Time to change it and make it possible

Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome is painful all the time
Your joints hurt because of how unstable they are 
Your muscles are working twice as hard to make up for unstable joints 
Most people live with daily pain that is somewhere between 5 to 10 on the pain scale 

Up light it up 
Up light it up 
Up light it

Light it up
Your voice is heard

On My Mind

just messing around with some less common time signatures with this cool sounding VST jazz drum kit I like. This is a little ruff but a short and fun example.   :)

Dans notre bar    (Translated under the French text )

Texte :        Josette LéonardCocquempot
Chant :        Karine
Musique  :  Alain Illos

Dans notre bar , je t'attendais
Yeux charbonneux , bouche cerise , 
les jambes gainées de soie grise , 
je t'attendais . 

Dans notre bar je t'attendais
Indifférente à ce garçon 
et à son regard polisson , 
je te guettais .

Anxieuse et un peu fébrile
Je pensais à ces turbulences
À ces nuages imbéciles
Qui menaçaient notre romance

Mai découvrait    ses blancs lilas
L’air embaumait le muguet tendre
Le garçon était toujours là
Et toi tu te faisais attendre .

Le temps passait imperturbable
Et l’angoisse en moi s’installait
Le verdict était implacable
Ton amour s’en était allé .

Dans notre bar je t'attendais 
Yeux charbonneux , bouche cerise , 
les jambes gainées de soie grise , 
je t'attendais .  

 Je n’allais pas te supplier
Il me fallait baisser les armes
A travers un rideau de larmes 
Le garçon me souriait

In our Bar

In our bar , 
I was waiting for you
Smoky eyes , cherry mouth , 
legs sheathed in grey silk , 
I was waiting for you . 

In our bar, I was waiting for you
Indifferent to this boy 
and his polite look, 
I was watching for you.

Anxious and a little feverish
I thought of the turbulence
To those foolish clouds
That threatened our romance

May uncovered its white lilacs
The air was fragrant with tender lily of the valley
The boy was always there
And you kept waiting .

Time passed unperturbed
And anguish settled inside me
The verdict was implacable
Your love was gone.

In our bar I waited for you 
Smoky eyes, cherry mouth, 
legs sheathed in gray silk, 
I waited for you.  

 I wasn't going to beg you
I had to lower my weapons
Through a curtain of tears 
 The boy smiled at me

Dans notre bar avec Karine

you dirty sod...you dirty bastard...you dirty f#$kr...what a f#$ng rotter...Dec 1976...The Sex Pistols brief live TV interview with  presenter Bill Grundy resulted in 30 seconds of Profanity as a very drunk Steve Jones, goaded on by a drunk and lecherous Grundy, let him have it... the encounter was headline news the next day and controversy followed .... 
here is a  link to the 90 second interview that cost Mr. Grundy his job.
https://youtu.be/boQGEyAcZwo?si=AkWVhxeDK7PJeRJ0

Now, as my angst turns to anger with the politics of today,  I borrow Mr. Jones' knack for the profane to punctuate my verse..thx Steve.
...like him I'm just an ole punk rocker in decay...

What Steve Jones Once Said

To all you two-faced
Doublespeak
Money grabbing politicians 
Noise polluting nonsense
I'll say what Steve Jones once said
#&*!@$!!!!
His voice inside my head

To all this short-stick
Tariff shit
Fascist reboot coalition
Nimby ploys and Brownshirt boys
I'll say what Steve Jones once said
&%$#@!!!
His words I have retread

This sonic stone I throw
To Pistol poke the bear
I like to speak some drunk Steve Jones
To the greed
And gob out there

To all you warmonger 
Border breakers
Bomb us to submission 
Wading through your wickedness 
I’ll say what Steve Jones once said
#$%^&!!!
All the lies I have been fed

To all you MAGA rights
And you ultra lefts
Stoking this division
Shut yer traps I'm sick of you
I'll give you some Steve Jones instead
@#%$&!!!
Now our words are wed

His curses from the past
A crude footnote in history 
I have recycled and rehashed
Bill Grundy’s moment
Of infamy

Lyrics HotR/Jones

What Steve Jones Once Said

Pole Shift

The earth shakes below
lightning flashes above
hearts and minds are broken
Poison all around

Nowhere else to go
Everywhere the same
There’s no time at all
where we find ourselves

If we could only see
That we lack nothing
fear would fade away
Only truth would stay

Swallowing the hook
we consume the bait
Can’t agree at all
Save the need for change

Divided in our minds
Can’t tell love from hate
Then before we know
It may be too late

Blind with mental plays
walk into the blaze
Cannot see what’s here
in front of our face

Earth shakes below
lightning flashes above
hearts and minds broken
Poison all around

If we could only see
That we lack nothing
fear would fade away
Only truth would stay

Earth shakes below
lightening flash above
Hearts and minds broken
Poison all around

If we could only see
That we lack nothing
fear would fade away
Only truth would stay

Seeing in real time
Following the way
Having seen what’s real
Only truth will stay

Lightly holding on
As the poles turn round
peaceful through it all
as the world falls down

Giving And Taking
------Cloud Stepping
(Chorus)
Life is relative, to the one that’s living it
Inside outlook, to giving and taking it
Experience god’s works, all senses
We were given just a little bit
We couldn’t handle it all 
the few we have can nearly fit---NOT barely
the few we have can nearly fit

(Verse1)
If we knew it all, and all
Then nothing would matter
It’s all a puzzle to be solved
We have always been the answer
The plan of god without reward
Evolves in different ways
We are all awake in different dreams
To let the devil play

(Verse2)
Who amongst us hear the screams
Of millions of lives lost, 
and don’t look on it as savagery
And wonder what’s the cost
What’s the worth, and what’s the cost
Are we listening or not
Are we listening or not

Giving And Taking

Never Thought

[intro]

[instrumental]

I never thought I'd end up here
I did not have a vague idear
I was just a kid in high school
all I thought about was girls

I never thought I'd end up here
I did not have a vague idear
I was worried about the war
But I thank my lucky star

I never thought I'd end up here
I did not have a vague idear
I was just a kid in college
Thought I needed some more knowledge

Then came work and a career
Never thought I'd end up here
I did not have a vague idear
There was nothing that I feared

Then a wife and then a son
I had no use for a gun
I did not have a vague idear
There was nothing that I feared


[instrumental]

But here I am, I live in fear
This is what it all came to
There are people trying to get me
I will waste them 'fore they do

I never thought I'd end up here
I did not have a vague idear
I don't hold my life too dear
I won't let them get too near

This is what it all came to
If they get me they'll come for you
This is what it all came to
I will waste them 'fore they do

This is what it all came to
I will waste them 'fore they do

I will waste them 'fore they do

3:30 [instrumental]

But here I am, I live in fear
This is what it all came to
There are people trying to get me
I will waste them 'fore they do

I never thought I'd end up here
I did not have a vague idear
I don't hold my life too dear
I won't let them get too near

This is what it all came to
If they get me they'll come for you
This is what it all came to
I will waste them 'fore they do

This is what it all came to
I will waste them 'fore they do


I will waste them 'fore they do

A Music Fanatic, inspired Songwriter and Music Producer, enthusiastic Mixer and a Guitarist creating songs for the pure joy of it. I love to include my Wife and Daughter in my Music to capture a beautiful moment; a personal time capsule. Music is an expressive outlet for me and I write from the heart.

Close to my heart is raising awareness of HYPER MOBILITY EHLERS-DANLOS SYNDROME. 

“Sometimes when you hear hoofbeats, it really is a zebra.”

No two zebras have identical stripes and no two people with Hyper Mobility Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome are identical. They have different symptoms, different types, and different experiences.
