Sweet dreams, collected relaxing music

warm breeze

"Empty Hands" explores the raw journey from betrayal to self-discovery, weaving through the shadows of toxic relationships and workplace prejudice to emerge in a place of unexpected strength. With haunting vocals set against a dark bedroom pop soundscape, the track builds from intimate vulnerability to a powerful declaration of self-worth. 

Each verse peels back layers of disillusionment – from friends who take without giving, to colleagues who dismiss years of experience – while the choruses transform these wounds into wisdom. The bridge marks a turning point where grey skies and bitter days give way to a profound realization: sometimes losing everything makes room for something better.

Written from a place of deep personal truth, "Empty Hands" speaks to anyone who's ever given too much, trusted too freely, or felt invisible in their own story. It's an anthem for the underestimated, a goodbye letter to fair-weather friends, and ultimately, a promise to oneself.

5 seconds... 2 words (FOR PALESTINE) that WILL matter. I'll make sure of it.... I promise ❤️


Lyrics

Over the years Irish people have used the saying, Toicfaidh ar lá, meaning Our day will come...
and it did...

Well.......
Tiocfaidh do lá 💪🏻 (🇵🇸Your day will come🇵🇸)

For Palestine

♾️Allahu Akbar
Calling Yahwey
Love bombs from Buddha
Send some help their way♾️

This May day, we recognise
An overdue state of Palestine
It’s a good day,
Come on there’s many left alive
We hope and pray for them and their rights….

Tragedy on both sides
Other always wrong!
And you’re always right!

Where the power lies
The truth subsides
And the children die
Yes the children die
How?
Why?
Oh my

Starving,
We know what that 's like
Forced famine on this Isle
Bombs in your beds tonight
Well God I hope they’re right
Please, at least an afterlife
To live when we die

Then the kids maybe they’ll be alright
The kids will make it right
Once the bigots die

No fight
That's just right

Today we recognise
An overdue state of Palestine
We hope and pray for them and their rights….

Toicfaigh do lá.
For Palestine.
Toicfaigh do lá.
For Palestine.
Toicfaigh do lá.
For Palestine.
Toicfaigh do lá.
For Palestine.


There are maybe some parallels between Palestines current struggle and Ireland's battle against oppression over the centuries. I found it quite beautiful, as a nation, we at least took the high ground on recognition with that small step against the wishes of most power corners of the world.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internatio…te_of_Palestine

According to this there are 50 states still to recognise Palestine diplomatically. 47 of which are members of the UN. Within these 50 lie the countries with the most power...

'Over the years Ireland said a famous saying, Toicfaidh ar lá, it means our day will come. This saying became synonymous with Republican extremism which I in no way condone but here it's obviously used in a positive light and in a way it feels like taking the words back for better use! Similarly with Allahu Akbar, the only time we here those words in most Western media circles is related to more extremism. the reality is it's just two lovely words that mean God is greater and is used by millions of Muslims worldwide in there everyday lives, peacefully. So I think it's nice to use them in a normal way here too.... Calling for help on the behalf of the Palestinians 📣 Don't mean to offend anyone... Ask Palestinians if they care about me asking their God for help for them in a song maybe and getting a bit of backup from a couple of other ones too...

I'm not a religious person. Spiritual yes!
The prayers in this song are in solidarity with the Palestinians and I know prayer for most of them is most of the hope they have! A wider awareness of their plight should eventually change that. So here's my whisper for the Palestinian people. I really hope you get the freedom and peace you deserve 🙏🏻

Tiocfaidh do lá 💪🏻 🇵🇸Your day will come🇵🇸

I ask the Universe to give Palestinians peace now🙏🏽

For Palestine (from 16 of Us 🔆)

"The Siren" is an enchanting solo piano piece composed, performed and recorded by Karen Biehl. 

The Siren

Speak to Me

My mum was a child minder. Growing up, there were plenty of other kids at home. One was called Stevie. When confronted with something unusual, he'd say "That's a funny habitat!" To my shame, sometimes my brother and I used to tease him. This song is dedicated to him.

Habitat

Stevie crawls right up the hill and then we push him down again
Stevie climbs the metal slide and then we hurl him down again
Up and down  - down & up 
Then we shove him down again
up & down - down and up
Then we shove him down again

What’s he say?
"That’s a funny habitat - That’s a funny habitat"
He’ll complain 

Steve looked looked like Frankie Howerd ‘cause he had a biggish head
“Stevie looked liked Frankie Howerd” - I’m sorry that is what I said
egg banjo runny nose
And who could really blame him so?
And when he saw the climbing frame?….
“That’s a funny habitat!” 

Brain’s inflamed 
"That’s a funny habitat that’s a funny habitat"
Who’s to blame? 

Jack and Jill runs up the hill it’s such a thrill 
to push them down and 
The sun it heats the metal slide feels nice to hide and throw him down and 
What fun we had, never sad, a plastic bag a finger wag Stevie cries “Come here you scallywags- 
That’s a funny habitat!"

Stevie runs and Stevie plays - it’s been sunny now for days
Stevie huffs and Stevie puffs - you’re a scallywag he says 
I’m so sorry that I showed you the scary waxworks photographs
The pictures of the severed heads and the infamous murderers 
Something strange? 
“That’s a funny habitat!”
Who’s to blame?
It’s a shame

Jack and Jill runs up the hill it’s such a thrill 
to push them down and 
The sun it heats the metal slide feels nice to hide and throw him down and 
what fun we had never sad a plastic bag a finger wag Stevie cries “Come here you scallywags- 
That’s a funny habitat!"

The cat she shat right on a mat near the rat who was fat and the bat who ate the gnat who was a twat cried ‘oh drat!’ In the crumbling flat’s a vat over a slat built by Pat Stevie cries “Come here you scallywags- 
That’s a funny habitat!"

“What’s my name? Stevie K!”

✨ NEW OMGG RELEASE ✨

This time we perform *“Linnunradan laidalla”* fully in Finnish 🇫🇮 — as originally written by the legendary Finnish band **Eppu Normaali** (formed 1976 in Ylöjärvi, Finland). They are true pioneers of Finnish rock, shaping the sound of generations.

The song title *Linnunradan laidalla* means *“at the edge of the Milky Way”*. Some key Finnish words in the lyrics:  
- *Valo matkalla jossain* → “a light traveling somewhere”  
- *Huulipunaa paidalla* → “lipstick on the shirt”  
- *Alla tähtien* → “under the stars”  

It’s a poetic love song about timelessness, memory, and how light and love travel across the universe. 🌌  

We will also make a **new English arrangement** — not just a translation, but a reimagined version that flows in English while keeping the spirit alive. This will take time, but we are excited to bring it to life. For now, we hope you enjoy hearing it in its **true Finnish form**. 💙🤍  

⚠️ **Copyright goodwill note:** This is a respectful cover made to honor Eppu Normaali and spread awareness of Finnish music culture worldwide. Please support the original artists and explore more of their work.


Original full lyrics:

Aika täällä maan päällä ylitsemme ajaa  
Emme täysin katoa silloinkaan  
Linnunrata loisti vyönä  
Rakastuimme sinä yönä  
Se ei katoa milloinkaan

Sillä kaukaiset tähdet me nähtiin  
Valo silmistämme lähti silloin matkalle tähtiin  
Ikuisesti vaeltaa  
Saa ehkä joskus jonkun silmät tavoittaa

Valo matkalla jossain  
Linnunradan laidalla olet kainalossain  
Alla tähtien, yhdessä siitä lähtien  
Huulipunaa paidalla, Linnunradan laidalla

Silmin yhä aremmin näen paremmin  
Mitä näkemättä olla toivoisin  
Näkisinpä unta niinkuin muukin ihmiskunta  
Ja kun herään asiat ois toisin

Toivoin ehtiväni ensin  
Kun unessani avaruuteen lensin  
Katsomaan maailman luomista  
Eilistä ennen huomista

Valo matkalla jossain  
Linnunradan laidalla olet kainalossain  
Alla tähtien, yhdessä siitä lähtien  
Huulipunaa paidalla, Linnunradan laidalla

Aika täällä maan päällä ylitsemme ajaa  
Emme täysin katoa silloinkaan  
Linnunrata loisti vyönä  
Rakastuimme sinä yönä  
Se ei katoa milloinkaan

Sillä kaukaiset tähdet me nähtiin  
Valo silmistämme lähti silloin matkalle tähtiin  
Ikuisesti vaeltaa  
Saa ehkä joskus jonkun silmät tavoittaa

Valo matkalla jossain  
Linnunradan laidalla olet kainalossain  
Alla tähtien, yhdessä siitä lähtien  
Huulipunaa paidalla, Linnunradan laidalla

Alla tähtien, yhdessä siitä lähtien  
Huulipunaa paidalla, Linnunradan laidalla



Linnunradan laidalla (OMGG Cover of Eppu Normaali)

Xak Stahl: Alchemist of Sound, Architect of Emotion

Xak Stahl is a genre-blurring music artist, sonic storyteller, and relentless experimenter. Every track he creates is a new world—a kaleidoscope of indie folk, alt-pop, electronica, and global flavors—infused with raw emotion and boundless curiosity. Xak’s music isn’t just heard; it’s felt.

From Shadow to Spotlight

For Xak, music is metamorphosis. His journey began in the shadows, transmuting heartbreak and struggle into songs that glow with hope. Early anthems like “Neon Dreams” and “Rising Through the Darkness” invite listeners to find their own light. His newest project, Major Arcana, channels the mysteries of the Tarot—each song an archetype, each lyric a step along the path from the Fool’s first leap to the wisdom of The World.

More Than Music: A Multisensory Universe

But Xak isn’t confined to sound. As a visual artist and writer, he crafts immersive stories that spill across genres and languages—sometimes haunting, sometimes playful, always honest. Whether he’s conjuring lush soundscapes, weaving bilingual lyrics, or creating striking visuals, Xak’s art dares you to feel deeper and dream wilder.

An Invitation to Transformation

Join Xak Stahl on a sonic odyssey that blurs borders—between genres, between artforms, between you and the music. Each release is an invitation to explore, to heal, to become. For Xak, every song is a spell, every album a universe. The only question is: are you ready to step inside?
