Description: Jenny takes over the lead vocals in this track. I stick to the secondary voices. Jenny does a great job and I'm happy to let her have the spotlight in this one of our more recent songs. She deserves it.

Your voices work so well together! You should think about a duet.

The story about the second verse of this song is a good one:  When Jenny and I fell in love and before we finally started our relationship we dated quite a few times. And never once did one of us make a first move.  But during our last date before we got together Jenny said: "Look at us. We're acting like two cats around a bowl of milk, not knowing what the hell to do".  I couldn't do anything but smile, because She was so right. That same evening we finally got together. A week or two later I wrote that part into our song. So that's what those second verse lyrics mean. We had quite a few people ask "what the hell is that second part all about". Well, now you know.

Long Way Home

I would never let you go

“Promises” is an upbeat pop rock song about a relationship with someone unreliable. It's been fun to work on a handful of chords some months ago. After adding licks, soli and lyrics it became a catchy song with a twist. Thanks for the collab!

This song is part of my album "Going My Way" which can be downloaded at Bandcamp.

==== LYRICS ====

Promises sweet promises
You begged me to hold on
Then without a warning you walked away
You were gone

Time, it took some time
To feel alive feel strong
Then you came back with those famous excuses
I believed you I was so wrong

Baby I can’t do this anymore
There’s nothing left to spend
I could never be more sure
That I won’t be your dead end

I promise you…

Oh I believe in miracles
And turning water into wine
But I’m wise to your false prophecy
Not even you can turn back time

The years have shown me how to read
The danger in your eyes
The open road ahead of me
Every mile is mine

Baby I can’t do this anymore
There’s nothing left to spend
I could never be more sure
That I won’t be your dead end

I promise you…
I promise you…
I promise you…
I promise you…

Going My Way

Promises (with Jason Challis and Kelly Best)

"Pyromancer" is a fiery folk metal song about the conquest of a medieval fortress. Can something be more metal than fire, magic and a heavy wall of guitars?!

This song is what happens when weird ideas come to another and bring people together. The catchy melody longed for a hurdy gurdy and heavy guitars.  Jordan's power metal falsetto brought my pen and paper inspired lyrics into life. A rough demo of us two summoned Stephan and Simon, who handed in plenty of bass, mandoline and guitar takes. Ben had an idea for a violin solo I could never think of. We ended up writing and recording a metal song that may never existed, if we took ourselves too serious. We already had a videoclip in mind, but I grabbed my graphics tablet instead and drew the pyromancer with that evil grin on his face. 

Thanks for the joy you've brought to me. I hope you enjoy the song as much as we do! We wish you a happy new year - and now let the pyros go off!

==== LYRICS ====

Looking for a glimpse of fire
eyes burning with desire
When all warriors cross their blades
you're ready for the raids

Bastards climbing up the walls
They heed the final call
Archers firing into night
Call fellows to unite

This is your last turn
Let the ashes burn
Pyromancer!

Cloven hooves pervade the walls
As men fall into brawls
Ascent of fire on dried grass
Listen to that swelling brass

The brotherhood fulfills its aims
As foes burn down in flames
Ashes are all that remains
The smell of our disdain

This is your last turn
Let the ashes burn
Pyromancer!

This is your last turn
Let the ashes burn
Pyromancer!
