Fantastic song, fancy and sensitive, sounding great !!

Cette chanson est également très bonne, elle a un très bel arrangement.

Awesome ethereal guitar wrapping the vocal. Great synths too, cool 80’s pop sound in the vocal. Great guitar break too. Our collab is still on my list of projects 👍

This song was written in Nov 2021 during a composition challenge, in a limited time (4 hours). At this time, it was obviously a very small part of it, blurred in reverb, not mixed and sung in only one shot. 
After some digging and mixing, I'm pleased to show you here the entire song. As usual, my voice is not supposed to be definitive here. I just want to show the intention. Any collaboration proposal with a singer is welcome.

Never Say Goodbye

May 19th marks the day of my childhood best friends passing. Losing him at such a young age was a tragedy. We shared so many wild adventures and new experiences, he was like a brother. After I moved to LA, flying home for Christmas was the only time I got to see him. You never know when it’s the last time your going to see someone so enjoy every moment with those you love. Rest well my friend you are still by my side! This track features the amazing violin work of the incredibly talented Joylin and my JCB brother Dean playing bass and making everything sound like magic in a speaker. Can’t thank them enough!

Jeff's Song

Done in the style of one of my all time favourite old bands, Pink Floyd.

Out of the Darkness

A Song for the Victims of Leonard Lake

somewhere up in the hills you see from Fool's Bay
a junk packed yard 'round a house
where no one ever stays
rusty machines, the smell of dump
and a door in the ground
half way beneath the porch, sugar
if you're strong enough to bear 
you'll hear an eery sound

that's wehre he made them stay
where he came to see 
how someone fades away

stairway down to hell
shortcut to paradise
it's where you swim in shabbiness
and drown in Mister Lake

that's where he made them stay
where he came to see 
how someone fades away

a big man and a sad man
a list of things they'd expect
don't hide behind those words, sugar
but you where strong enough to kill
whatever dreams they'd pet

that's where you came to stay
a place you'd never see
unless you went that way

abandon
understand
stop counting
beats so deep

abandon
all your 
all your
or you'll
understand

stop counting 
stop seeing
stop hoping

Lake Song

A song I developed a couple years ago, after playing around with GarageBand…

Such A Really Good Question

Blue Suede Shoes

He dreamed of writing the great American novel
But when he tried to write his wheels just spun and spun
So he started doing book reviews to pay the bills
He became the literary equivalent of Atilla the Hun
Brutally criticizing, trying to find things to hate
He became a critic because his work was second rate
It takes years of work to write hundreds of pages
Each author thinks they’ve written a book for the ages
He skims though each manuscript in less than ten minutes
Reviews don’t pay that much so he has to set time limits
He pushed himself to the limit, day after day
100 pages per hour going down motorway
Words, words, words, words, words, words
Words rebel – stretch and widen
they hide between the lines
they crowd, they crowd, they become too vague
darken him, irritate him, push him - out of the margin,
The words all swirl together and he mutters to himself
He sits at his desk for hours. It’s not good for his health
He says if you don’t like my reviews, you can tell me to go to hell
To hell, to hell, you can tell me to go to hell
Sometimes if a good book made him jealous and it got under his skin
He’d write a bad review, try to send it to the discount bin
And every day his reviews grew more and more over the top
Like a shark in bloody water, he was unable to stop
And then one day he was overrun by a train of syllables going counterclockwise
And question marks appeared as the words blurred before his eyes
The words on the page now felt empty
He’d expended all his rage
The meaning of words was inverted
He was trapped in a hopeless cage
He viciously pointed out the flaws
Of all his contemporary peers
He burned his bridges and when he fell
his victims erupted in cheers
Words, words, words, words, words, words
Words rebel – stretch and widen
He said if you don’t like my reviews, 
you can tell me to go to hell
Now he works as a door to door vacuum cleaner salesman and that’s not going well
To hell, to hell, he told them to go to hell
He saw the trainwreck coming but he ignored the warning bell

The Ballad Of The (former) Literary Critic [lyrical collaboration with Michele Ansani]

'diffidence' 

Please let me be the only one to love you.
And, me, the only one to whom you give your love.
For, in my life, I've placed no one above you.
It feels so right and safe each time we touch. 

But I fear that somehow I've left you unsatisfied,
and that you feel the need hide from me
all the things that go down when my hands are tied.
Tell me, baby, please, just set my mind at ease. 

I'm doing all I can to understand you.
I give you all have each time I can, my love.
I hope our love continually expands through
communication, and that we can trust 

everything we share, based on the feelings
that captivate our souls when we are near.
I know that we are unique, separate beings,
but it's so hard livin' with all this fear 

of losing you, because we are so different.
Although the love we share, feels much the same.
I apologize for my constant diffidence,
but, sometimes my brain makes me feel insane...

diffidence

'ex-love' 

I'm such a fuckin' fool
to have fallen for you.
You act like everything is cool,
but your words don't match what you do. 

I caught you in the act.
And how did you react?
You placed the blame right back
on me. Claimed I used the key misappropriately. 

But you're the liar and the cheat, ex-love.
So, why the fuck did you give me a key, ex-love?
If you knew you're gonna fuckin' cheat on me, ex-love?
Then turn it around, place the blame upon me, ex-love.

We're through.
Because of you.
Not me.

ex-love

If I’m the force you’re the negative 
If I’m the force you’re the negative 
And I’d kill for ya it’s precedent 
And I’d kill for ya it’s precedent 
If I’m the force you’re the negative 
If I’m the force you’re the negative 
And I’d kill for ya it’s precedent 
And I’d kill for ya it’s precedent 

Making a way you’ll find out 
Making a way you’ll find out 
Making a way you’ll find out 
Making a way 

Your loves on the walls 
Your love crawls 
Like a spider, like spider 
Way it crawls up before it bites ya 
Like a spider, like spider 
Way it crawls up before it bites ya 

If I’m the force you’re the negative 
If I’m the force you’re the negative 
And I’d kill for ya it’s precedent 
And I’d kill for ya it’s precedent 
If I’m the force you’re the negative 
If I’m the force you’re the negative 
And I’d kill for ya it’s precedent 
And I’d kill for ya it’s precedent 

You’re the opposite of me 
I’m 212F you’re 0C
Let live die and let love bleed 
I’ll put it in the ground to rest in peace  
Your the opposite of me 
I’m polar to the sun 
You’re ash and heat 
Forcefield blocked magnetically 
Your compass pointing southwest 
I’m northeast 

If I’m the force you’re the negative 
And I’d kill for ya it’s precedent
