Lyrics:
Paramour
Standing by
Please don’t cry

Nevermore
He won’t leave
It’s make believe 

You realize
In the storm

Evergreen
Someone new
Just for you
Make it count


Paramour

EDIT 23 April 2025 - I will not use any AI technology that interferes with the realm of creativity in human culture. And I will not support people who use such technology to deceive others by claiming authorship of compositions/songs/images created by generative AI.

WARNING - This is ENTIRELY A.I. generated song!!!

So... this is my first attempt at A.I. generated music. I tried this on www.udio.com. However, it is not completely created by me from scratch, but for this first time I've used it, I took a fragment of someone else's song, which stuck in my heart with its mood (I am an incurable romantic). I really regretted that it didn't have a beginning and an end, so... I generated my own. The track came out really awesome, so I've decided to share it with You. It really resonate with me... And now someone say that this A.I. generated music does not evoke emotions...

Here is the original from I've made my extension. 
https://www.udio.com/songs/qg79XfYiiHp2x8kgSyBkGa
Here is my extension on Udio, where You can see how in text field I've prompted A.I. to do what I wanted: 
https://www.udio.com/songs/smVu17fJngJTLVjdJLuUjf
And link to my alternative version which have I think really awesome ending: https://www.udio.com/songs/k6RtJUvcLzPtsNUcTUnTVi

Here is the list of songs I've found on Udio that are really great. It's worth to check out to have an idea, how good can be A.I. (guided by talented people) in music generation!

However, I still don't know what to do with this technology. There is no return to the state before it appeared, so we will have to live with it. But will I use it... I don't think so, at least not yet. For now I can't say its human influenced creation. Until they turn it into something like Crea or Leonardo, where a human influences every aspect of the work being created, or even gives A.I. directives on what it should look like, feeding it with your ideas, this is not the technology for me... Or maybe I don't know how to use it...

But time passes and sooner or later such technology will appear. Then we will be able to put aside our plugins and DAWs and create/generate whatever we dream of at the speed of thought  :)

AND SO IT GOES
LIKE JAZZ IN THE PAST WHEN
PEOPLE IN THE STREET
WOULD PASS THEM
CLICK OF THE FINGERS#
SET THE RHTHYM
AVAST IN  PRE TENSE
 EPIC CCOMMENCE
OPEN WINDOWS
TO VENT
THE HEAVYNESS
THE PENNILESS
BROKE VENDORS
CLOUD OF SMOKE
AHEAD OF US/
DESCENDANTS/
OF ANY OF US/
WHAT
HAWKING WARES
PAUSE AND STARES
LIKE OLD MEN
THAT PAUSE AT STAIRS 
CLUTCHING THE HEART WHEN
LIKE PENS
ANIMATE 
AND INCREASE GAIT
OF IMAGINATION
DROPPING SHIT
OPEN THE SLUECE GATE
ANOTHER BREATH
TRIANGULATES
THE MUSCLES IN COMBINATION
TO CREATE 
LIFT
AND INNOVATE
TOES TOUCH THE FIRST STEP
ALMOST THERE
LIKE PROSE
PROPIGATES
PURPOSE
CRUSH
SUFFOCATE WORTHLESS
'TILL IT GOES LIMP
AND DROOLS
 WATER THE FLOWERS
OF POSSIBILTIES
USE AS TOOLS
THAT'RE NATURAL SOLIQUIES
THAT SQUEEZE
LIKE GALLESPIE
FROM THE CHEEKS
BUT A MOUTH
TO NOTE
THE BREAK THAT BROKE
START TO SMOKE
WITH A FIRE DANCE
HOPE
IS A FINE CHANCE
WHEN THE JAZZ STARTS

Jazz jazz jazz

I'M A MISADVENTURE
TURN
 MENT IT
FROM THE NORM
TORMENTED
TOURNQUE
TORN AWAY
SO NO STOPPED FLOWS
MUSICAL PROPPED FOES
SHADOWS OF
WHAT BEFORE THIS
WAS CLASSED AS
'WHAT GOES '
IGNORED ABORTED
FROM MODERN THOUGHTS
NO TIME
TO AFFORD IT
AWKWARD ORBITS
ROUND
HEADS IN THE BACKGROUND
OCCASIONAL SAMPLES
TO MAKE THIS SOUND
SOUND LIKE
DAYS OF OLD
A BETTER MOLD
A BETTER MODE
OF TRANSLATING
THE ART OF SEDUCTION
MAKING MATING EASIER
NOW MATE
IT MAKES IT QUESIER
LACKS THE SUBTLE ATTACK
OF BRUSHED DRUMS
AS THE TROMBONE
ATTACH THE SLEAZIER
ELEMENTS
FEASIBLE
YOU'LL NEVER LEAVE A LOOSER
A CHOICE TO CHOOSE
AS A USER
THE MUSIC FOR YOU SIR
AN AIDE OF TECHNIQUE
FOR THE GENTLEMAN SEDUCERS
AT BREAKFAST
YOU MAY SEE HER
AS SHE IS
UNDRESSED FROM THE NIGHT BEFORE
WITH JAZZ TICKETS
IN HER CLEVEAGE

I GET JAZZY
WHO GOT THE THE JAZZ
LIKE J
TALKING ALL THAT JAZZ
LIKE WE GOT ALL DAY

     This is my new Christmas song for the year. It has a double meaning for me and that's why I call it "The Last Christmas"! Charlie did a good job singing it and I joined him in spots! I wrote it during the hot summer this year, so go figure!!😂 I used up all the tracks I had available to record it (I'm old school, give me a break!) and I had tons of fun recording all the parts too! The song at the end during the credits is another Christmas song I wrote back in 2001 called "Have A Very Merry Christmas" with Sharri singing and Charlie and me doing background vocals. Check both out I have a video each one! This video was super fun to create, I spent a lot of time and effort on it, the sleigh ride with Santa is especially cool! I added a lot of eye-candy and special audio effect here and there. This video is for the whole family so feel free to share it with loved ones and watch it together.

Now for the secret double meaning of this song!! It's a sad tale, so prepare yourselves! Back when I was in high school, back in ancient times, there was a very pretty girl in our English class named Chrissy, she was very nice and sweet, I sat next to her and she was very smart and let us dumb guys cheat off of her papers sometimes!😂 Anyway for almost the whole year I never realized that her real name was Christmas, we all called her Chrissy. There was something very sad about Chrissy, I didn't know what it was but the next year Chrissy never returned to school? Later, I found out she had leukemia, I think? She never returned to school after that and some of the kids told me she had sadly passed away however I'm not sure about that but I never did she her again. So this song is for her and after all these years she popped back in my brain?! So let's all enjoy Christmas this year with family and friends because you never know when it will be your Last Christmas! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all and Happy New Year!! 🙏😎✌🏼🎅🧑🏻‍🎄🤶🌟💫☃️🎁🎈🪅🎊❤️💝

“THE LAST CHRISTMAS”

CHRISTMAS, THE LAST CHRISTMAS,
CHRISTMAS, IS HERE AGAIN,
CHRISTMAS THE LAST CHRISTMAS,  
CHRISTMAS, DON'T LET IT END,                  

WILL WE LAUGH? WILL WE CRY?
WILL WE SAY OUR LAST GOODBYES?
OH CHRISTMAS, SWEET CHRISTMAS,
PLEASE DON'T DIE,
     
CHRISTMAS, THE LAST CHRISTMAS,
CHRISTMAS, THE TIME HAS COME, 
CHRISTMAS, THE LAST CHRISTMAS,
CHRISTMAS, WHAT HAVE WE DONE? 
 
WILL WE SMILE? WILL WE WEEP?
COUNT OUR BLESSINGS IN OUR SLEEP?
OH CHRISTMAS, FORGIVE US,
CHRISTMAS PLEASE,
SWEET CHRISTMAS PLEASE,
  
SNOW IS HERE, LIGHTS ARE BRIGHT,
THE TREE IS TRIMMED WITH LOVE TONIGHT,
RUDOLPH'S READY FOR HIS FINAL FLIGHT,
AH AH, AH AH, AH AH, AH AH,      
   
WILL WE SMILE? WILL WE WEEP?
COUNT OUR BLESSINGS IN OUR SLEEP?
OH CHRISTMAS, FORGIVE US,
CHRISTMAS PLEASE, SWEET CHRISTMAS PLEASE,  
BYE BYE CHRISTMAS, 
BYE BYE CHRISTMAS, 
BYE BYE CHRISTMAS,
BYE BYE.

"THE LAST CHRISTMAS" (Video - https://youtu.be/7LHAOfih50I)

Nostalgia

Lay me down
upon the white table.
Administer your anesthesia.
Cut me open.
Dissect me.
Remove what no longer serves.

My inabilities mount.
My insecurities cloud.
Disassemble me.
Take me to the edge of the lake
and I will sink, numbly to the bottom
happy.

Kiss the mermaid.
The blood dilutes.
Eat my heart 
until I have no meaning.

They call my name.
The sound is distant.
I am not me.
I have ascended
to you.
