unfinished rough version of a song I wrote a month or two ago!
Big up Kayla Kelly with her angelic voice!

Sam Evans + Kayla Kelly - UNTITLED

Wrote this song in about ten minutes, then decided to record it! I'm sorry there's nothing more than Acoustic & Vox, but after recording everything I realised I was micro-tonally out with the Keyboard... so enjoy the laid-back-ness of it & sorry for the lack of instruments! ! :) Again it's something different, please share!

To many people rushing around
Not enough people sitting down
Looking at the world through these eyes
Just letting time pass me by
I wanna sit down on some grass
I wanna laugh and laugh and laugh
I wanna dip my toes in a stream
I wanna live my dream

We got love in our heart
We got love in our soul
We got love all around
And this loves good to go
There is love in the forest
We got love in the ground
We got love in the sky
We got love in the sound
So I'm ready to dance
I'm ready to dance
I'm ready to move my feet get loose with me
I'm ready to give it a chance
I'm ready to dance
I'm ready to dance
I'm ready to let myself go

I wanna jump in the water with nothing on
I wanna climb to the top of the tree so I can see the sun
I'm gonna smell the flowers outside
And savour the sweet flavour of these beautiful times

We got love in our heart
We got love in our soul
We got love all around
And this loves good to go
There is love in the city
There is love on the street
There is love in my heart
And its love for free
So I'm ready to dance
I'm ready to dance
I'm ready to move my feet get loose with me
I'm ready to give it a chance
I'm ready to dance
I'm ready to dance
I'm ready to let myself go

We got love we got love
We got love we got love
We got love we got love
We got love we got love
We got love we got love
We got love we got love
We got love
And I'm ready to dance

We Got Love

Give Me The Day (demo)

'In Amongst' from Sams latest album Orchard Sessions.
Remasterd in 2023 by Michael Peters

In amongst all the damage,
In amongst all the pain
In amongst all the fear 
There's a change
In amongst all the laughter
In amongst all the trust
In amongst all the details 
There is love
For there is more than meets the eye
This is not just black and white
We are learning to be wise
Beginning to harmonise
From the silence of the mountains
To the crashing of a wave
In the hearts of the children
There's a change
From the west right to the east 
Up to the highest star above
At the bottom of the ocean
There is Love
Our message is simple 
Yet it can't be explained
Our courage is growing
Do you feel the same
'cos there is more than meets the eye
This is not just black and white
We are learning to be wise
Beginning to harmonise 
....

lyrics
You better watch your step
When your walking around your surroundings every single day
Watch your step
'Cause if you keep on moving on the spot you'll never find your way
'Cause there are people who try to dictate the direction that you go
So watch your step
'Cause if your not watching then who the hell will decide for you
Watch your step and hold on to whatever makes you you
Watch your step and hold on to anything you value
'Cause I can't hold on, no I cannot hold for you
'Cause in these times of trouble when we feel the struggle when we've got no where to run
Yeah we gotta hold on
Listen now we gotta hold on
'Cause there are bad people in power of the country that we live
And maybe for the greater good of society them powers should not exist
They need to watch there step
'Cause there are plenty of people like me and we're growing one by one
Yeah we'll expand our consciousness until we feel connected to everyone
Yeah we'll expand our consciousness until we feel connected
Watch your step and hold on to whatever makes you you
Watch your step and hold on to anything you value
'Cause I can't hold on, no I cannot hold for you
'Cause in these times of trouble when we feel the struggle when we've got no where to run
You know together we are part of the bigger picture
And together we can make things right
You know together we are part of the bigger picture
And together we can make things right
Yes together we can make it oooh
You know together we can make it oooh
Yes together we can make things right
You know together we can make it oooh
Yes together we can make it oooh
You know together we can make things right
Watch your step and hold on to whatever makes you you
Watch your step and hold on to anything you value
'Cause I can't hold on, no I cannot hold for you
'Cause in these times of trouble when we feel the struggle when we've got no where to run
Yeah we gotta hold on to whatever makes you you
Watch your step and hold on to anything you value
'Cause I can't hold on, no I cannot hold for you
'Cause in these times of trouble when we feel the struggle when we've got no where to run

Watch Your Step

'As We Go'. Here is a song I recorded at home a few years ago. It nearly made it onto my 2020 album 'Orchard Sessions', though the guitar and vocals were done at the same time and felt nice so I've kept it as close to the original recording as possible. With my Nan recently passing away, these lyrics and sentiment has led to the making of a official music video (out now on Youtube), captured when visiting her in North Devon a week before she died.  Releasing a version of 'As We Go' was not in my release plans .... but life sometimes has its own plans for what we do. I'd like to dedicate this video to my Nan. Rest in Peace. x

As We Go - Sam Evans

"How We Should Be Loved" is a special song that has undergone an exciting transformation. Originally written and recorded on my first EP over a decade ago, this track has been given new life with a fresh version

In collaboration with the talented Deano, this new version of "How We Should Be Loved"was recoded from the comfort of my home studio. I took great care in making sure that every element of the song resonates with authenticity and passion.

Joining me on this musical endeavor were a group of exceptionally talented musicians who brought their unique skills and artistry to the table. Jonny Turner's electric guitar adds a dynamic and melodic edge, while Wilf Blomfield's rhythmic mastery on the drums propels the track forward with infectious energy. Ben Carver's basslines provide a solid foundation, anchoring the song with precision and groove. 

With its heartfelt lyrics and soul-stirring melodies, "How We Should Be Loved" invites you to embark on a journey of introspection and connection. Follow Sams journey here http://www.samevansmusic.co.uk 
 
lyrics
We've had our highs and we've had our lows
Yesterdays yes could now be a resounding no
You're so hard to judge but so easy to please
You promised you wanted to stay but then begged me to leave

I've been travelling through out of space
And I'm searching for a distant place
Where we all can learn to love how we should be loved
And I'm wandering this galaxy
Wondering if we'll ever reach
A place where we can love how we should be loved

We find it so hard but we keep making sense
Through all of the hardships and carnage thats left
Maybe we're not perfect but we do our best
Deep down in my chest I know that I'm blessed
This heart it still beats and I'm still taking steps
Sometimes I feel lonely but in my defence
I'm travelling through out of space
Tryna take time for myself and my mental health
From day to day
Tryna make the dreams that haven't yet happened happen
Before its to late, wait, it's all in the balance
Life is the same, your mind will change, time will fly by
You'll need to remind yourself to keep practicing kindness and compassion
Even when your hearts heavy and you can't explain the pain
But at-least you're alive even if your life is a challenge

I've been travelling through out of space
And I'm searching for a distant place
Where we all can learn to love how we should be loved
And I'm wandering this galaxy
And I'm wondering if we'll ever reach
A place where we can love how we should be loved
I've been travelling through out of space
And I'm searching for a distant place
Where we all can learn to love how we should be loved
I'm wandering this galaxy
Wondering if we'll ever reach
A place where we can love how we should be loved
