This track was inspired by singing Curtis Mayfield's Move On Up, remember your dreams are your only schemes and KEEP ON PUSHING.
Thank to Phil Williams who helped me compose this song....

KEEP ON PUSHING

© Sandeep Issar & Phil Williams:
This is  our second track.
Its a ballad called To catch a falling leaf.

Making a wish after catching a leaf......

TO CATCH A FALLING LEAF

This is the first demo of the song, though not as polished a our final version, I still like it a lot.© Sandeep Issar & Phil Williams

TO CATCH A FALLING LEAF - First Demo

© Sandeep Issar & Phil Williams:
Phil wanted to re-mix our first song into a House version.
This is a great version.....well done Phil.

WHAT MAKES YOU (KEEP ON PUSHING) Dance Mix

© Sandeep Issar & Phil Williams:
So when I first heard this  song in my head, I imagined this as some kind of Two-Tone Genre.
But when Phil and I began writing this, we tried a soul song and then tried to make it "modern".  It ended up sounding like a child of the 80s.
My friend say "Pet Shop Boys" so I'm resigned to wearing a traffic cone on my head.
Thanks Phil for all the time you've spent mixing and adding to the song in so many ways.

GROOVES AND MOVES

© Sandeep Issar & Phil Williams:
I first started writing this song in my 20s... many years ago.
I never completed the lyrics song, until recently. Thanks to Phil Williams yet again, who helped me complete the song, and has made the song much better than I had ever imagined. He has also been really keen to develop his production skills too and develop his understanding of the whole process. I think he is doing an amazing job. This represents days/ hours of work for him, THANK YOU PHIL...I've also made a great friend along the way :)
As I returned to the song, I realized that I began writing the song about my two sons who are both on the Autistic spectrum. I must admit that I was in a dark place when I wrote this. They are in fact both inspiring in their own ways and I think that they have made me a better person.
So these are the lyrics below. Thanks for finding the time to listen.
Piece of History
Chorus - slow
Sleep child sleep
And when you arise.
You'll find a world to loathe and despise.
Cry when you cry and all that you'll learn
Is to hold a torch,that you'll never burn
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn
(Bridge)
Verse 1
Cry like a dog to be heard in this world
Sleep on the floor and you're given your chance
Why don't you know
Why don't you see
The moment that you're born
You're just a piece of history
Chorus
To light up your soul
To light up your dreams
To light up your heart
That you'll never burn
To light up your soul
To light up your dreams
To light up your heart
That you'll never burn
Verse 2
You walk down the streets, the neons and lights
The rations of hope meet the passions of night
Still don't you will know
Still don't you will see
The moment that you're born
You're just a piece of history
Chorus
To light up your soul
To light up your dreams
To light up your heart
That you'll never burn
To light up your soul
To light up your dreams
To light up your heart
That you'll never burn
Instrumental
Verse 3
Child don't u know that the feeling subsides
Your hopes fall down and watch them sublime.
Then you will know
Then you will see
The moment that you're born
You're just a piece of history
You're living in a lie that just a piece of history
........HISTORY
Bridge
You're sinking
You're sinking
You're sinking
You're sinking
You're sinking
You're sinking my child
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn child
That you'll never burn nah
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn child
That you'll never burn nah
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn child
That you'll never burn nah
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn child
That you'll never burn nah
That you'll never burn
To light up your soul
To light up your dreams
To light up your heart
That you'll never burn
To light up your soul
To light up your dreams
To light up your heart
That you'll never burn

PIECE OF HISTORY

A song I started writing a long time ago, which Phil spent a lot of time dissecting and putting back together. 
Its meant to be a father singing to his child about how beautiful our planet is/ was.
Thanks again to Phil Williams, who added his classical musical touch to the song writing process... and thanks Phil for all your time and effort that you spent producing and engineering this song....you are getting pretty amazing at this!

Left holding the baby

Summer breeze,autumn leaves,
Winter Suns,you've not seen
you've not seen the time of day
When day arrives on time
And you cry and you cry.


Moonlight Beams, Rainbow Rays
Frozen streams, you've not seen
you've not seen a river flowing
Without the debris in
And you cry and you cry.


Chorus
Just like a baby cries when it's mothers breast is dry
You never cried when your mother died
You never cried when your mother died
And I'm left holding you baby
And I'm left holding the baby
We're all left holding a baby
The babies are holding the baby...


Falling stars, Milky Ways
Northern lights, You've not seen
Neon signs lit up my street
Now nothing ever glows
And you cry and you cry

Chorus

Just like a baby cries when it's mothers breast is dry
You never cried when your mother died
You never cried when your mother died
And I'm left holding you baby
And I'm left holding the baby
We're all left holding a baby
The babies are holding the baby....


And I'm left holding you baby
And I'm left holding the baby
We're all left holding a baby
The babies are holding the  baby....

LEFT HOLDING THE BABY

Phil re-worked the mix after listening to some positive feedback from the UK Songwriters Forum http://www.songwriterforum.co.uk/
.... please have a listen and tell us what you think....thanks for listening

LEFT HOLDING THE BABY - ReMIX

Phil and I wrote this track a couple of years ago, but never completed. We have thought about going back to it, but have been side tracked by life and trying to write a House Song, which is not as easy as I thought.
I have written some new lyrics for it, because I thought the chorus was a bit dark. If anybody has the time would love to try and collaborate and finish it.
As it stands, we only did one vocal track, but I'm posting it because is December. and it has a Xmas feel, so please listen if you have time.
Thanks

Sandeep

These are the current lyrics.



The man in the moon sheds a tear

Verse 1

There's a place that I go just to be on my own
Where the woes of the world can't find me
There's a lake by a stream
Where the stars are so clear.
Makes the man in the moon shed a tear.

Verse 2

It's the place that I go when I'm thinking of you
I know  you can never be near
I dream that you kiss my lips 
And love's abundantly clear
Makes the man in the moon shed a tear.

Chorus

Shadow of a crater watching over me
Hiding all my fear
Guiding all my dreams
Like an orchestration
Where rhythm has a soul
hearts lose all control
shadow of a crater watching over me
shadow of a crater watching over me

You're not here, you're not there, but you're everywhere
Your soul is always in me
When I take a step
I feel that you're near
Makes the man in the moon shed a tear.


Chorus

Shadow of a crater watching over me
Shadow of a crater watching over me 

Repeat and fade.

THE MAN IN THE MOON SHEDS A TEAR - FIRST VERSION

This is the first song that Phil and I collaborated on in a year. I told Phil that I had a half written Acid House Jazz song and he thought that he  could fuse it with an element from his hero, Jean Michel Jarre ..... and this it it.
The song is pretty abstract but it’s about the Dreams of people who have inspired me....and many others. In some cases they were locked up or paid the ultimate sacrifice for their beliefs; The Luther-Kings, Mandelas, Gandhis, Lincolns and Lennons of our past. I think we really need some in the present. The sparse lyrics are peppered with some of their key words or phrases.
It’s about dreams so Phil has added a dream sequence. 
My thanks and admiration to Phil for his patience, his creativity and his artistry...... thanks to Linda for sparing him and advising us.   Look up Phil's  solo work on https://soundcloud.com/darkmode-1

Hope you enjoy and feed back welcome....The  lyrics are below:
