your music really touched my heart! Amazing!!

Great track both of you. I agree the guitars add to the track beautifully

Theres a film maker out there somewhere waiting for this to come his/her way. Fantastic guitars. The nylon has a happy feel, the electric more moody and atmospheric. Different sounds, sturring different emotions. You have got the blending of your fabulous trad instruments and the guitars perfect. Excellent track people.

Love the arrangement Guitar work is excellent .

House on Second Avenue             c. 2021 by M. A. Manetz

V1
Our couch was at the curbside, our broken TV too,
With a pile of stuff from momma's room folks were pickin' through.
Landlord notice on the door, said “PAYMENT OVERDUE”,
The day we left our house on Second Avenue.

V2
Mama said, “Just pack your suitcase, leave your toys out by the street,
I'll buy you some new ones, when I get back on my feet”.
I was tryin' not to cry, but the neighbor kids all knew,
The day we left our house on Second Avenue.

Bridge 1
Life was always stacked against us but mamma always found a way, 
She tried her best to ease the shame and pain I felt that day.
She said, “son, hold your head up high no matter what they think of you”,
And we walked out of the house on Second Avenue.

V3
Back in town for mamma's funeral, I drove my son around,
Pulled into a side-street, slowed the motor down,
He asked “daddy why you cryin'?”, and a tear fell right on cue,
As we slowly passed to the house on Second Avenue.

Bridge 2
I told him, “life was stacked against us but mamma always found a way, 
Her strength and patience raised me to the man I am today.
So son, hold your head up high no matter what they think of you”,
Then we drove on past the house on Second Avenue.
Yeah,we're finally past the house on Second Avenue.

Endless Night Of Dreams

Im rebuilding the monster by making music.

Rebuild The Monster (feat. Gustav Bjoerck)

When I am dead, my dearest,
Sing no sad songs for me;
Plant thou no roses at my head,
Nor shady cypress tree:
Be the green grass above me
With showers and dewdrops wet;
And if thou wilt, remember,
And if thou wilt, forget.
I shall not see the shadows,
I shall not feel the rain;
I shall not hear the nightingale
Sing on, as if in pain:
And dreaming through the twilight
That doth not rise nor set,
Haply I may remember,
And haply may forget.
                            - Christina Rossetti, 1848

Composer/Producer blending folk melodies with neoclassical vibes, and cinematic verve, my work is a mix of original compositions and contemporary arrangements of traditional tunes.  I hope you enjoy the music! 

Philleann (pronouced PHILLY-ENN) is a mash up of my name Phil and one of the instruments I play, the Uilleann Pipes.  I also play the Whistle and Accordion.

I'm a Brit now residing in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. I'm also a member of Bellow Bridge a traditional celtic folk band.
