Dreamy listen to this song, great flow...

This, sunny weather, good vibes and with the love of your life 👌🏼

I am so excited about collaborating with soprano Maribel Villarroel and arranger and pianist René Calderón. The lyrics are from the Pablo Neruda poem "Para Mi Corazón" in the book "Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair". Translated by W.S. Merwin. Permission has been granted by Fundación Pablo Neruda.

Canciones para Pablo Neruda" is a book of musical scores for songs based on lyrics by Pablo Neruda and artwork from some of Chile's greatest artists:

Para Mi Corazón

Para mi corazón basta tu pecho,
para tu libertad bastan mis alas.                                                                                 
Desde mi boca llegará hasta el cielo                                                                                   
lo que estaba dormido sobre tu alma.

He dicho que cantabas en el viento                                                                             
como los pinos y cómo los mástiles.                                                                           
Como ellos eres alta y taciturna.
Y entristeces de pronto, como un viaje.

Acogedora como un viejo camino.                                                                                   
Te pueblan ecos y voces nostálgicas.                                                                              
Yo desperté y a veces emigran y huyen                                                                   
pájaros que dormían en tu alma.

Your breast is enough for my heart,
and my wings for your freedom. 
What was sleeping above your soul will rise
out of my mouth to heaven.

I have said that you sang in the wind
like the pines and like the masts.
Like them, you are tall and taciturn,
And you are sad, all at once, like a voyage.

You gather things to you like an old road.
You are people with echoes and nostalgic voices.                                                          
I awoke, and at times, birds fled and migrated
that had been sleeping in your soul.

Para Mi Corazón (Poem by Pablo Neruda)

Try to comprehend your life
There’s something in my mind
An overwhelming sense of fear
I wish I could describe

And I’m in a rut
Stuck like a rat in a cage 
But I won’t give up
No I won’t give up at this stage

Broken thoughts and twisted lines
All jumbled up inside
There must be some peace to find
It’s no-one’s path but mine 

And I’m in a rut
Stuck like a rat in a cage 
But I won’t give up
No I won’t give up at this stage

We’re forged in fire
Made a path that takes us higher
We’re forged in fire
Made a path that takes us higher

And I’m in a rut
Stuck like a rat in a cage 
But I won’t give up
No I won’t give up at this stage

We’re forged in fire
Made a path that takes us higher
We’re forged in fire
Made a path that takes us higher

SAFE SPACE by Nova J 

Get with the program
Sorry, but no ma’am
My life’s not broken
(My life’s not broken)

So why you tryna fix it
Throwin’ snap decisions
You seem so committed
(You seem so committed)

And now you’re tearin’ up my safe space
Doing damage I cannot erase
I don’t wanna go back
(No, don’t wanna go back)
To that dark place
But you keep tearin’ up my safe space

(this is my safe space — ahhh)
(this is my safe space — mm-mm)
(my-my-my… safe space — shhhhhh)
(this… this… this is safe — safe — safe)
(mmm this is my…)
(…safe space — safe space — safe space)

Pushing your opinion
Like it’s your dominion
I’ve got my own rhythm
(I’ve got my own rhythm)

You call it tough love
I call it just dumb
And now the time has come
(And now the time has come)

That you are tearin’ up my safe space
Doing damage I cannot erase
I don’t wanna go back
(No, don’t wanna go back)
To that dark place
But you keep tearin’ up my safe space

(this is my safe space — ahhh)
(this is my safe space — mm-mm)
(my-my-my… safe space — shhhhhh)
(this… this… this is safe — safe — safe)
(mmm this is my…)
(…safe space — safe space — safe space)

I don’t wanna go back to 2022
On my knees cryin’ — I was barely over you
I prayed my way out, with God’s good grace
Now you say get out, of my safe space

(this is my safe space — ahhh)
(this is my safe space — mm-mm)
(my-my-my… safe space — shhhhhh)
(this… this… this is safe — safe — safe)
(mmm this is my…)
(…safe space — safe space — safe space)

My life’s not broken
(So why you tryna fix it)
Pushing your opinion
(Like it’s your dominion)

And now you’re tearin’ up my safe space
Doing damage I cannot erase
I don’t wanna go back
(No, don’t wanna go back)
To that dark place
But you keep tearin’ up my safe space

SAFE SPACE

Every time i turn on the news or pick up a news paper my heart is hurt by the amount of Violence, war, Starvation , corruption that is going on at the moment. Whatever happened to Love, peace and happiness. I wrote this song to celebrate Life, freedom and peace. Life is not about oppression or starvation or war, or any of this stuff it is simply for Living. 

Written, performed , mixed and mastered by : John Mc Farlane

I finally realised what this life is all about
I’m going to find a mountain  gonna  climb to the top I’m going to shout it out 
Im gonna soar like a bird up in the sky 
Way up high,  I feel like I can fly 

I finally realised what this life is all about
Its taken me a lifetime now I want to share with you 
I want to shout it out 
Its been a very long time, but at last I’ve worked it out 
Here’s my revelation what life’s about 

Life’s about Living, life’s about Loving 
About Forgiving and understanding 
Life’s about being brave and standing tall 
Being proud of who you are even when you fall 
Life’s about Love , but most of all 
Life’s about Living 

I finally realised what this life is all about
Why God gave me a life, why God gave me a mouth 
So that I can tell the world, so I can shout it out 
This is what life is all about 

I finally realised what this life is all about
I’m gonna travel the world North, East , West and South 
Spreading the news i/m gonna use my God give mouth 
I’m Gonna tell the world 
What this life’s about 

Life’s about Living, life’s about Loving 
About Forgiving and understanding 
Life’s about being brave and standing tall 
Being proud of who you are even when you fall 
Life’s about Love , but most of all 
Life’s about Living

Life's about living

WHY by NOVA J

[Intro]
Why (why)
Why (why)

[VERSE 1]
Why (why) why do I have wandering eyes?
Always chasing cheap delights
In the dark between my thighs
Hmmm
Why (why) am I never satisfied?
Why’s the truth so hard to find?
Still I won’t compromise

[REFRAIN]
I just wanna be happy
I need to be free
I pray every night
That something heals me
But I…
Keep asking why?

[HOOK]
Why? Why?
Why (why)
Why (why) 
Ooooh why
Ooooh why
Ooooh why

Why (why) do I keep getting high?
Say “just one last time”
Then vanish into the sky
Hmmm
Why (high) do I ghost the good guy?
Still chasin’ a better ride 
But in the mirror, I cry

[INSTRUMENTAL]
Ooooooooooooh

[BRIDGE]
Why does it all look perfect on paper?
Why lie in bed dreaming my escape?
Why do I run when I long to stay?
Why do I push all my love away?

[Outro]
Oooh why? Why?
Oooh why? Why?
(Hmmm why hmmm ooooh ooooh ooooh)
Why (aye) do I still chase the high?
Asking questions, no reply
I just keep asking why?
I just wanna be happy
I need to be free
I pray every night
That something heals me
But I…
Keep asking why?
Why? Why?
(Ooooh)

This song tells the story of an aging former Walk of Fame movie star who once basked in the Hollywood limelight and was everyone’s sweetheart on the silver screen. With the passage of time, fewer screen roles come her way, and she begins to depend on red wine to cope with her depression and grief. Eventually, she decides to end it all. Indeed, glory, fame and fortune are a young girl's game in Hollywood, which is riddled with stereotypes of beauty and youth. This emotional and moving song is a dedication to those who have taken their lives over the years in Hollywood and elsewhere due to societal pressures to retain their youth, beauty and fame.  On September 25, 2025, this song Hit No. 25 on the World Indie Top 100 Music Chart list and was No. 36 on the Euro Indie Network Music Chart lists.

Lyrics:

You deserve some praise for what you managed to achieve
-You deserve this song
You are amazing, you're so strong!

Everything you've been trough, you're still standing on your feet
-You deserve this song
You are amazing, you're so strong!

Even if you had a bad day, you were polite anyway
-You deserve this song 
You are amazing, you're so strong!

You faced a lot of adversity, that you handled all alone
-You deserve this song
You are amazing, you're so strong!

Sometimes you tripped and fell, but you got up, and up again
-You deserve this song
You are amazing, you're so strong!

You are so brave and thoughtful, with so much inner strength
-You deserve this song
You are amazing, you're so strong!

So you deserve some praise for what you managed to achieve
-You deserve this song
You are amazing, you're so strong!

Everything you've been through, you're still standing on your feet
-You deserve this song
You are amazing, you're so strong!

-You deserve this song
You are amazing, you're so strong!

-You deserve this song
You are amazing, you're so strong!
