Quiet Angels (2022) ER TK-174

This is the 3rd collaboration with my old friend Synline (@synline). I created a basic track using his equipment in his studio, and he completed it with his excellent arrangement (includes creating additional sections, tracks, etc.) and mastering work.

Taken Away (collab. w/ Synline)

“This is a love song about finding your soul mate and starting a beautiful family together; the light of your lives. It is about reflecting on how grateful you are for being so fortunate in life and thanking the universe for guiding you to where you have always wanted to be. I hope you enjoy this one!”

A love song - “I THANK THE UNIVERSE FOR YOU”

I thank the universe for you, for you

I have my mornings with you
Thankful you’re here
Waking each day with you is what matters the most 
With you always, talk, up all night 
Counting the stars and my blessings too 

I thank the universe for you, for you 
I thank the universe for you, for you 
We made 3 out of 2
Now we have our future too
I thank the universe for you, thank the universe for you 

I settle your cries in the night time
Are moved by you in the daylight 
You are the brightest star in the twilight 
Keep us next to you
You light up both our lives
You are all that matters the most 
You are all our blessings too
I thank the universe for you

LYRICS

Living times
Lifetime's gone,
Crisp at dawn
Mellowed by the sun.

Golden horizon, all at stake,
People arrive at the fray.

No one knows the roots of our past.
No one shows, we've given our best.

Times have come
Times have gone,
Past tense
Is the chosen form.

Till the plain, caught up surrounding 
Our heart, our soul, our own.

No one knows the roots of our past.
It goes to show it's gone too fast.

Shear moonlight through my window.
Riding sideline, drawn-out timeline.
Taste so quaint, virtuoso.
Hello blueprint: unchecked, untried.

See the way
Script what may,
Humbled by the song
Promises go on.

What is this, hold on exist,
Gotta love our land, our smile, our pain.

No one knows the roots of our past.
No one grows enliven the guest.
It goes to show it's gone too fast.
No one knows the roots of our past.

The Roots of Our Past

Real Good trouble

Massive thanks to Magic Mike Fox  for his musicianship, producing, production and most of all just for being a top bloke.
And Nat Daniels for her massive contribution with her incredible vocals.
I have done many duets with Nat and every time it’s been a pleasure we have created many special moments.
Marry Me In Vegas was part 1 this is part 2 after Vegas with Real Good Trouble. 
Months after the non event of the grand marriage. He missed her after jilting her and not making the flight he felt like he needed to explain he just wasn’t ready for what she wanted. 
He never had the chance as she disappeared, shutdown her socials, changed her number and left.
Months passed without contact and then this phone called happened.

REAL GOOD TROUBLE (After Vegas)

I can’t believe you’re back in the city 
We called called our own
You wouldn’t recognise my number 
When I was calling,  calling on your phone
You said I’m sorry it’s been too long now 
And too many stones thrown 
I changed my number then picked another 
It was a stagecoach to Basingstoke 

Chorus 
So if you wanna get into 
Some real…. real Good trouble 
And leave our past behind
Then I’m ready & primed
For real good trouble 
For real good trouble….. Every Time! 

(every time.. oh baby baby baby... every time)

2nd Verse
After Vegas I needed to leave 
I should of worn my heart on my sleeve
Every minute of everyday 
I thought of you and what I would say 
I got a job found a place 
And for a while I was the new face.. 
And all the great moments that got us through 
Were never the same without You! 

Chorus 
So if you wanna, get into
Some real…. real good trouble 
And leave our past behind 
Then I’m ready & primed
For real good trouble 
For real good trouble … Every Time!

Every time.. oh baby baby baby... every time..
Real good trouble... 
Real good trouble... 
Real good trouble... 
Every time.. Every time!

Real Good Trouble (After Vegas) Fox, Brownie & Daniels

Recorded on a C. Bernstein grand piano and mixed November 2023 at GAM Studio by producer Armen Bedrossian near Paris, mastered by Coponat Records, ‘Les ombres s’animent’ is a relaxing dreamlike solo piano piece. French title means ‘Shadows are animating’. It’s inspired by twilight and campfire atmospheres, when you can feel invisible mysterious things are moving around. The music composition is also influenced by Ghibli animated movies scores aesthetics.

Les ombres s'animent

My wife says @ it’s all about you, when we disagree…or I want something that she doesn’t, ha! … that was the catalyst for this song..  but made a quadruple entendre about it! .. . It’s about all of you, me, our attitudes towards one another… it’s all around you, in plain sight…but mostly about my Lord, Jesus Christ!! Hope you like it! … a remix was in order, so that’s another reason I’m reposting it! 😎

All About You

This is a song I wrote in 1989, as a gift for a girl-friend on the occasion of a rendezvous we had arranged ten years earlier, well in advance, and perhaps imagining that it would be difficult, after all that time (at a young age ten years seems like an infinite time), to still have meaning in each other's lives. In reality, those two never lost sight of each other.
I produced several versions of the song and obviously don't like any of them anymore today. So I asked @pianofran permission to whisper and to recite the words (I can no longer sing very good) using a beautiful piano composition of hers as the basis (https://soundcloud.com/pianofran/doxology). This is the result. Thank you very much, Francess!

Original lyrics here: https://mikeansani.blogspot.com/2022/10/1979.html
English (very, very rough) translation

at the first stop she told him 'I am almost home,
greet me with a hug a little caress
take care of yourself and don't forget to look at the world
see you again when you're thirty
see you again in ten years'

after a long stop the train threw her into the darkness
Of a desert station a pale refuge
she coloured her hair, lifted her head and let herself be carried
by the night that took her without giving time to breathe
He looked around a bit, had nothing more to do
had no particular certainties to conquer
but the journey was still long
and at every town the sky became clearer
Occident was lowering
and his head brushed by the sun
slowly fell asleep

'in ten years' time you will have two grown-up children and a big house
a room just for the books and a little of nostalgia
of men by the sea, of women walking in the middle of the road without ever looking around
and when I'll come looking for you
don't offer me rose gardens
or iced drinks'

but presentiments are only false temptations
are dangerous mists at the border crossings
are like pinwheels of secrets,
are images of the evening
are like white horses that wander aimlessly
are the shadow of a restless face

no he will not have his hands tied but two big wings
boxes full of candies and special cigar cases
His voice will be even louder
His silences always full of words
the promises he will have kept
the stakes of every bet he will not have lost

she will hide instead in her ten yellow jumpers
and wear them proudly in spite of the passing years
she will chase ghosts, will try variations on the theme of destiny
will have hair of two colours
and burnt skin of an intense marine flavour

and on the day of the rendezvous in a city by the sea
they will have no thoughts or particular certainties to conquer
will look around, look for something to tell each other
then they will laugh hard
And once again
they will believe to resemble each other

Il giorno dell'appuntamento (Day of the rendezvous) [Michele Ansani & PianoFran] **

Miss U ft. MISSA

music fanatic. inspired songwriter and music producer. avid guitarist. enthusiastic mixer. 

I create for the pure joy of it and I love to include my Wife and Daughter in the 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 the chronically painful genetic connective tissue disorder HEDS (Hyper-Mobility Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome) to encourage recognition and a deeper understanding of the condition; that no 2 people with HEDS are identical and live with different symptoms, types and experiences. 
*Please follow the hyperlink below to the HEDS Society website for further information.*

I write songs inspired by my family, the music I enjoy, life and all the amazing experiences that come along everyday. I create with passion wherever the joyous process takes me and this page is an archive of all those moments. 

I enjoy making this music and maybe you will enjoy listening to it…

heart house and the new kindness. 2025
