Behind the Pain

"Bourbon Memories" is a haunting tale of love lost and the struggle to move on. Drenched in whiskey-soaked sorrow, the song paints a vivid picture of late-night loneliness, where old photographs and broken promises resurface with every drink. Memories linger like ghosts, and while bourbon offers a temporary escape, it can't erase the pain. As the night fades into morning, the realization sets in—some lessons are never learned

"Bourbon Memories"

---

[Intro]
The amber glow of bourbon, the silence of the room,
Photographs and letters, scattered like old wounds.
The clock ticks past midnight, as I pour another glass,
Trying to drown the echo of a love that couldn't last.

---

[Verse 1]
Your name's still in my phone, though I can't bring myself to call,
Your jacket's in my closet, your picture on my wall.
They say that time's a healer, but they never felt this pain,
So I let the bourbon whisper lies that keep me sane.

---

[Chorus]
Bourbon memories, they haunt me like a ghost,
The taste of your kiss lingers, the thing I miss the most.
I'm burning bridges nightly with every drink I pour,
Bourbon memories, they're knocking at my door.

---

[Verse 2]
Remember that December, we danced beneath the snow?
You promised me forever, how was I to know?
That forever's just a moment, and promises just words,
Now empty conversations are all that can be heard.

---

[Chorus]
Bourbon memories, they haunt me like a ghost,
The taste of your kiss lingers, the thing I miss the most.
I'm burning bridges nightly with every drink I pour,
Bourbon memories, they're knocking at my door.

---

[Bridge]
This bottle can't replace you, though heaven knows I've tried,
Each sip reveals the truth I've kept buried deep inside.
That loving you was easy, forgetting's the hard part,
So I let the bourbon numb the pieces of my heart.

---

[Final Chorus]
Bourbon memories, they haunt me like a ghost,
The taste of your kiss lingers, the thing I miss the most.
I'm burning bridges nightly with every drink I pour,
Bourbon memories, they're knocking at my door.

---

[Outro]
The bottle's nearly empty, the sun begins to rise,
The bourbon's lost its magic, can't hide these bloodshot eyes.
One more glass, one more memory to burn,
Bourbon memories, lessons I never seem to learn.

Emotional, haunting ballad. 
Lyrics by DjSas song by Joy 

Remastered to be a story told. New. 

-Left Me To Die  ( Why?)

This pain in my heart. It continues to this day. 
This is my story.

Twenty years have passed, have passed
Since that day,And I still I don't know
Why.It's hard,Not to forget,That you didn't
Care.You didn't Try To see if I was Alive.
Why?
Why?
You left me All alone To die.
Why?
You left me , to Be with Someone else.
Why?
Twenty years have passed,have passed,Since that day,And I still,Still to
this day,I don't know.
Why?
Not knowing,If you knew,That you left me,
You left me to die.Why?. 
Why?
 You left me,to Be with,Someone else
Why?
Not knowing,If you knew,That you left me to die.You left me,to Be with,Someone else.
Why?
Not knowing,If you knew,That you left me to die. You left me,to Be with Someone else.
Why?
Not Knowing If You Knew That You Left Me to  Die .You Left Me to Be  With Someone Else. You Didn't Try To See If I Was Alive. You Came Back Into My Life Telling Me About Your Love For Me, To Tell Me That Wedding Bells Rang For You When it should have been You And Me. Should have been you and I!
 Why?
 You Left Me To Die To Be With Someone Else Not Knowing If I Had Died.
 Why?
 Twenty Years Have Gone By Since That Day And I Still Don't Know Why To This Day That You Left Me To Die. 
Why?
Wedding Bells rang For You When it was meant to be, you and i. You Didn't Care About Me So You Left Me To Die. My Life has Never been The Same. Able To Forget.Able to forgive. Able To Truly Love. To Believe That Someone Who Said they Loved You, Left You To Die .
Why Did You Leave Me To Die? To Be With Someone Else, wedding Bells rang For You. You Came Back Into My Life To Tell Me You Still Loved Me.
 Why? 
You Left Me To Die. Is That What You call Love?. A part of me died inside, that day. Died.
I STILL HAVE NEVER GOT A REASON, AS TO WHY YOU LEFT ME TO DIE…….Closed the door behind you.

I Still Remember Love by Nova J

I wake up in a room I don’t know
The curtains bright, the light is low
She smiles at me and says my name
I don’t recall hers, I feel ashamed 

She helps me sit and brings my plate
I try to eat but barely taste
She holds my hand and doesn’t rush
And somehow it feels just enough

I still remember love
Even when the rest fades out
I still remember love
And that’s what life’s about

A man walks in and calls me “dear”
His face is kind, his voice is clear
I don’t know the place or day
But feel safe with him anyway

I get confused out in the hall
Forget the way, forget it all
They find me there and bring me back
No one laughs or gives me flak

I still remember love
Even when my mind’s not right
I still remember love
Like a porch light in the night

There’s a song that plays inside my head
I hum along though words are dead
I don’t know where the tune came from
But singing it still keeps me calm

I still remember love
Even when I lose my place
I still remember love
When I see a caring face

So if I forget your name
Or don’t know where we are
Please don’t feel ashamed
Just stay right where you are
I forget a lot
But when push comes to shove
I still remember love
I still remember love

I STILL REMEMBER LOVE

Gloves off

Akon - Bananza (Aylen Remix)

Dopo francese e italiano “Una storia di mille volte amore” anche in inglese. 

“It’s a story of a thousand times love”

Mine has now become a sweet obsession  
A constant thought that plays in my mind  
A recurring dizziness that takes hold of me  
A force that overwhelms me, thinking only of you  
I could tell you that I’m madly in love  
But words are not enough to express what I feel  
Together we have taken the world in our hands  
Like a crystal ball to read the future, tomorrow  
And like indelible ink, you have marked my destiny  
You took my heart in your hands with your sweetness  
And you gifted me your soul like a beautiful flower  
And you filled our great story with light  

It’s a story that goes  
It’s a story that gives  
It’s a story of a thousand times love  
A thousand times love, a thousand times love  

Like a child in the arms of someone who cares for him  
Happy to dive into a sea full of love  
And you, like a wave, pull me under with your passion  
And in those moments, the universe stops just for us  
Like a lighthouse shining in the midst of a storm  
I follow you, sure to find your warmth  
You are a ray of sunshine that warms and after a bitterness  
You comfort me by holding me close to you  
In this story that transcends all boundaries  
There is no scale to measure the strength of love  
And we, who are happy like two little children  
Are grains of sand that make the world spin  

And the world goes on  
And the world gives  
It’s a story of a thousand times love  
A thousand times love, a thousand times love  
A thousand times love, a thousand times love  
A thousand times love, a thousand times love

It’s a story of a thousand times love

In a world that seems to be drifting further from compassion and truth, “Our Own Normality” tells the story of two people who quietly resist the chaos. It’s not about trying to go back to the past — it’s about choosing to live right now with kindness, honesty, and love, even when the world doesn’t. Inspired by the quiet strength passed down through generations, this song is a reminder that values aren’t old-fashioned — they’re just rare. Set against a soft, emotional piano backdrop, the voice is close and human — not perfect, but true. This ballad speaks for anyone who still believes in doing right by each other, even when no one’s watching. It’s personal. It’s modern. It’s not nostalgia — it’s real life, built on something that still matters. And for those who’ve found someone to walk with through that kind of world, this song is for you.

Lyrics
Our Own Normality

They say to live a normal life — but what does that mean?
I see a world without feelings, don't seem to share.
No two faces look the same, no one stops to care,
But I’ve got you — and that feels rare.

Normal used to be kindness, Dad would say,
Telling the truth and living the right way.
The world has changed its way
We can always hold each other, we can always share

You will walk beside me through life, your hand in mine
We will write our own story and be a guiding light
The world will spin, it might not see
This love of ours will always be on display

Normal used to be kindness, Dad would say,
Telling the truth and living the right way.
The world has changed its way
We can always hold each other, we can always share

We’ll live our life, let the world just see,
Our love for each other — a light they need.
If we are kind and caring in all we do,
Maybe the world will learn from me and you.

Normal used to be kindness, Dad would say,
Telling the truth and living the right way.
The world has changed its way
We can always hold each other, we can always share

🎧 Kitka – You Say (Intimate Acoustic Version 432 Hz)

A raw and intimate performance of one of the most powerful worship songs ever written.
Just grand piano, emotional violins, and my voice – stripped down to pure honesty.

This song reminds me that I am loved even when I feel lost.
Maybe it will speak the same truth into your heart. 🌿✨

Manifesto

We Declare:

    That the suffering in Gaza is not a distant conflict but a wound in the conscience of humanity.

    That silence and political games by so-called Western defenders of democracy are betrayal incarnate.

    That art, music, and truth must tear through walls of apathy, breaking chains with sound and spirit.

    That to remain silent is to support the erasure of life itself.

    That we rise—voices united, hearts aflame—to amplify those crushed under siege, to shatter the walls of oppression.

    That every beat, every echo, every lyric becomes a rebellion against forgetting.

    That through collective awakening, we reclaim not just Gaza’s future but the soul of humanity.

"NOTHING UNDER THE SUN IS NOT PART OF CREATION, NOR IS IT NOT CREATION ITSELF—IT'S ONLY WHAT YOU MAKE IT. NO JUDGES, NO DIVIDES—UNITY."

1. Philosophical and Metaphysical Context

This phrase operates on a profound metaphysical premise rooted in ancient and modern spiritual thought: the idea that everything within existence ("under the sun") is inherently part of creation, yet simultaneously defies a simple binary of "creation" and "non-creation." The double negation — “is not not part” and “is not not creation” — serves as a dialectical device emphasizing paradox rather than straightforward affirmation or denial.

Nothing exists outside creation’s domain. All that "is" is both a part and a reflection of the creative whole — but perhaps creation is not a static “thing.”

It touches on panentheism or even non-dualism, suggesting creation transcends our binary modes of thought.

In this sense, the phrase challenges rigid ontologies. It rejects compartmentalization — what we consider ‘created’ vs. ‘uncreated’ is a false dichotomy.

2. Existential and Constructivist Overtones

The clause “It’s only what you make it” signifies a turn from metaphysical absolutes to personal agency and interpretation.

Creation is not a fixed category but a creative, subjective, and participatory process.

Reality is texturized by human meaning-making — your perception, actions, and judgments shape what ‘is.’

This brings in vibes of existentialism and constructivism, affirming our power and responsibility in shaping the world and imbuing it with meaning.

3. The Ethics of Judgment and Division

“No judges, no divides” strikes a moral and social chord:

It calls for radical acceptance — no external or internal authority imposes judgment.

It opposes division, sectarianism, or exclusion based on arbitrary or prejudiced distinctions.
This has echoes of universalist humanism and inclusive ethics, a plea for unity beyond fractured identities, labels, or separations.

4. Final Summation: Unity as a Creational Ethos

The closing refrain “UNITY” serves as the conceptual apex:
Unity is not merely a formal condition but an existential and creational ethos, holding the paradoxical unity of all existence despite apparent differences or judgments.
It is a call to embrace multiplicity without fragmentation — wholeness that contains diversity.

Style and Rhetoric

Paradox and Double Negatives: The use of double negatives (“not not”) is daring and poetic, evoking the style of Zen koans or 
Hegelian dialectics — prompting reflection rather than offering a direct statement. It challenges the reader to dwell in ambiguity and complexity.

Capitalization and Punctuation: The em dash creates dramatic pauses, underscoring the key thematic shifts; the capitalized “UNITY” acts as a powerful, summative slogan or mantra.

Economy of Words: Despite its complexity, the phrase remains succinct, poetic, and emphatic—a hallmark of impactful philosophical proclamations.

Cultural & Literary Resonances

Biblical Allusions: “Under the sun” recalls the Book of Ecclesiastes, with its contemplations on the nature of existence. This embeds the phrase within a long tradition of existential inquiry.

Contemporary Spirituality: The phrase resonates with New Age and postmodern spiritual ideas emphasizing non-duality, co-creation, and global unity.

Political and Social Dimensions: In a world segmented by ideologies and conflicts, “no judges, no divides” can serve as a subtle political manifesto for peace and acceptance.

Noel is a writer of songs and stories rather than a musical performer. His songs have been described as reflective as they are motivated by the struggles, celebrations and tensions of everyday life. His musical stories typically address issues as diverse as cancer and homelessness, addictions, love, loss and troubled relationships. These songs are led by the lyrics and are a mix of folk, country and blues.
Inspired by a diverse range of music from Leonard Cohen to Jason Isbell, Noel's songs took years to find their voice.Noel was born in Ireland and currently lives there but spent many years living and working in Africa. Much of his inspiration has been drawn from his own life experiences including his more recent journey with cancer. ‘Stars in Heaven’ is one of a number of songs dealing with cancer.  This particular song was chosen by Music Beats Cancer after submissions by over 800 other artists.
Noel says “ I really hope that the songs can reach a much bigger audience. I also hope that the songs can help, even in some small way, in connecting with people and in raising awareness and support for the issues they address."
