Love the modern vibes. Cool and cozy sounds.

Such a privilege to feature on this. Love you Sammy 🙏

Ooooo...tasty, smooth. So chill I might spill!!! Nicely done Sam...

Ginger Root x Sambcel x Donte Paris collab when?

Wow, it's been so long. My last song was released August 2020, and this one is released March 2022. I started this song in January 2021, and have sat on it for way too much time. This song is about not being able to write one despite all the pieces being there.

Special thanks to @donteparis for lending his golden pipes to this tune.

Lyrics:
(Sam)
It's okay that it's been a while since you've played guitar
Even fine that your pen has dried up from the wait
In your head is a song that refuses to grow, I know
Expectation has got you overthinking the notes

I write the melody first, then the words
Then come the chords and the beat, stay in key
I've wrapped up all I can say– nobody will hear this anyway
Something's not right with the verse or the chorus
I think we'll start over, again

(Donte)
And I know it's been so long since I called
Ain't no way I can lie or try this time
I've been caught up in things
I've been caught up with me
I don't want anyone else, so believe me that

I write the melody first, then the words
Then come the chords and the beat, stay in key
I've wrapped up all I can say– nobody will hear this anyway
Something's not right with the verse or the chorus
I think we'll start over, again

No Song (feat. Donte Paris)

I'm still not good at mixing these things so you might need to turn it up or listen with headphones.

Thanks for listening, as always.

This is a cover of a song I love, "水玉模様の片想い" by a YouTube channel called "sundaytube02." The link to the original is below:

The jazz arrangement of this cover (from which my version gets its inspiration from) was created by USK, the incredible guitarist behind the YouTube channel "Retro Vending Machine In Japan," and is the 28th track on his album which you can find below.

If anyone knows more about these songs then PLEASE message me and tell me about them. Thanks for listening.

Special thanks to Ryan Kawanami for providing me with a transcription.

Finally back from Sweden, finally able to play guitar but I'm rusty at making these.

Thanks for listening, here's to another great year!

It's been so long since I've made a song, holy moly.  Thank you to all the friends who I forced to listen to little sections before it was finished. 

Thanks for listening!

It will be on streaming services soon.

Unprepared for the final holiday, (a holiday)
don’t want to go but I’ve no choice anyway (we’re going any–)
I try not to cry,  I know that when I’ve arrived  
there won't be pain– but what of me remains?

Life just seemed to start, now it’s falling apart
How could you know it would be so hard to depart?
You’re seeing a light, I’m not far behind 
I guess you really never know when it is your time
Wish I could say that I am not worried (I am not worried)
Would it be a lie to say I'm afraid? (I'm not afraid)

One may even say that I’m envious (he’s envious)
of people who think an afterlife exists (where are we going?)
It’s not that I don’t– I mean, well, how could I know?
I’ll be alright with whatever I find

Life just seemed to start, now it’s falling apart
How could you know it would be so hard to depart?
You’re seeing a light, I’m not far behind 
I guess you really never know when it is your time
Wish I could say that I am not worried (I am not worried)
Would it be a lie to say I'm afraid? (I'm not afraid)

(When life is over, where do we go?) 
(This all is fleeting, my time is low)
(The best has ended, so long ago) 

Wish I could say that I am not worried
Would it be a lie to say I’m afraid?

When It Is Your Time
