I wrote this song the first time I was living in Australia. I'm singing lead and an accompanied by my bandmates from my bluegrass band Cornbread. 

Sugarcane

Quiet Space

A welcome song in celebration of the first day of Spring as if to say:

Hello to my dear old friend
I missed you waiting for winter to end
Now it is your time to begin
Yes, it is Springtime once again

Hope you enjoy! Blessings to all!

Lyrics

What do I have to say
To make you stay
The world is turning now
Without me

Why do you have to keep
Just letting me retreat
This worldly learning is 
So lonely

Take my hand, dear
Help me to stand, dear
It thaws my heart, just
To have you near

Cos times are changing, so fast
Can we find the energy to last
This price we paid was it worth the cost
Or will we feel that all is lost

On the horizon
Sunset or sunrise
Facing death, or saving lives
Losing our faith 
Or finally arrive

You used to bring me
Coffee in the morning
You used to kiss me in the rain
I remember times so full of yearning
Oh will we ever feel that way again

Cos times are changing, so fast
Can we find the energy to last
This price we paid was it worth the cost
Or will we feel that all is lost

On the horizon
Sunset or sunrise
Facing death, or saving lives
Losing our faith 
Or finally arrive

Echoes Of Tomorrow (with J.J.Terrell & K2 and the Three, 2024)

Wonderful collab: Jano and the Electronix composed and played the music. He wrote the lyrics a while ago. This pearl was waiting to be found!   Melancholic Mood Verse 1: Dark clouds passing by, Grey days as time goes by. A drop falls, a deep sigh, In my soul, spinning high. Chorus: Melancholy in the rain, Tears blending with the dew. In this moment of silence, I find myself right here and true. Verse 2: Thoughts flying far and wide, Lost in my own world's tide. A smile faint, yet heavy as lead, In this rain, so cold it's spread. Chorus: Melancholy in the rain, Tears blending with the dew. In this moment of silence, I find myself right here and true. Bridge: The wind tells tales, Of times gone by, The melody of life, We can't always guide. Verse 3: Yet, at the core, a spark of light, A glimmer of hope in the night. Melancholy breaks its might, And a new day comes to light. Chorus: Melancholy in the rain, Tears blending with the dew. In this moment of silence, I find myself right here and true. Outro: The clouds move away, Making room for new rays. Melancholy in the rain, A moment, a silent ballet.

Runaway 

She was born in a town on the border,
Raised for the fourth of July,
She knew within 
She didn’t  fit in
Don't know why. 

She didn’t go looking for trouble,
But trouble was always round,
It was always the same,
No-one to blame
Was what she always found. 

Runaway and maybe you’ll find somewhere, a place,
A place to stay and feel that  you’re safe in your own space. 

She moved to a part of the country,
That soon didn’t want her around,
It wasn’t long before she’s moving on
Southern bound, from town to town to town. 

Met a young man by the roadside,
She just couldn’t run anymore,
He listened to all that she said
That no-one ever listened to before. 

Runaway and maybe you’ll find somewhere, a place,
A place to stay and feel that you’re safe in your own space,
But if the demons that you are running from are strong,
Then in your head you’ll find that they’ll follow on and on. 

She thought about all he had shown her,
And sensing her journey’s end,
She realised the safest place
Is where you finally find a friend. 

So don’t runaway and maybe you’ll find somewhere, a place,
A place to stay and feel that  you’re safe in your own space.

I dedicate this song to the memory of my friend Macsi. 
He was a very special person. A child living in the body of a big bear who never grows up. He was an excellent musician and an great graphic artist. He left behind a great legacy, but also a big and unfillable void. I hope to see you somewhere!

'your addiction' 

Scratch Kelly: beats, production, photography
Scotty: lyrics, vocals, guitars 

I loom in the subconscious of your mind.
I won't reveal myself until it's time.
Assume you're well until I come to find
your weakness. Then your ass is fucking mine.
And once I get my filthy hands on you,
you'll have no idea of the things that you will do
to get me into your blood, and when I'm through,
you'll crave my love and I'll be stuck with you. 

Finding it hard to live without my love?
Finding it hard to cope without my love?
Finding it hard to kick your need for my love?
You're stuck, babe, I'm your addiction. 

Consumed by the evils in your mind.
You're ruined by the fecal memories you find.
Your wounds that you can't forget or leave behind.
Resume with your need for my love until you die. 

Finding it hard to live without my love?
Finding it hard to cope without my love?
Finding it hard to kick your need for my love?
You're stuck, babe, I'm your addiction.

your addiction (with Scratch Kelly)

Cast of Characters:
John_Anthony-- @john-anthony-871225464 --guitar, mandolin
The Mysterious Decibel-- @themysteriousdecibel – vocals
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara -–Ken–drums and high harmony on the end vocals
TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– banjo, production, and mix
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1 –-four string fretless bass, melody and harmony on the end vocals
This song began with John, who is a verifiable expert in all things Jimmy Page, asking me and the Eclectic Collective if we'd like to cover another Led Zeppelin song to follow Hey Hey What Can I Do? Of course, the Eclectic collective is always down to sink their teeth into some of the best rock and roll ever made. John found us recordings of the original Zep version that were separated into their individual tracks, so as we were adding, we could hear what our part would've sounded like playing with the original band. What a thrill!
  Ken was first to complete his part, and did a great job of capturing the frenetic energy of Bonzo. John was up soon after, amazing us with a note for note interpretation of Page on both the guitar and mandolin. I came next, after nearly deciding that JPS's part was too difficult. It wasn't. Then, when the bulk of the music was recorded, MD came through and stunned us with a brilliant interpretation of Plant's vocals. To bring it to a boil, Stephen then laid down his magical banjo in there, too. Lasty, Ken and I polished it off with some background vocals at the end. 
  Of course, every great song needs a great producer, who in this case was Stephen. He managed to even it out and get it to sound not only like the album, but very dynamic, as well. 
  This is the EC's second collaboration with John, and we're all stricken by how proficient he is at playing Page's material. If you dig what we did here, you can check out the video, too, right here, of us playing. It's on John's YouTube page, which also contains scores of other favorites from Zep, Floyd, and others. If you are interested in seeing how your favorite Zep tunes were played, it's definitely worth a stroll through and watch.  Here's the link to his page. Also, you can find us doing Hey Hey What Can I Say? on there, too.  https://youtube.com/@johnanthony5720?si=7YqvUXLKkuXT4qjy
  We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed making it.

Lyrics:  Obfuscated
Obfuscated, obfuscated
You make things unclear, You make things obscure,
Obfuscated, You confuse me
Obfuscated,  i’m perplexed how You make things complex, 
when you hide the truth when you bend the truth

obfuscated
web of lies, in disguise
it’s no surprise there are so many words
for all sorts of lies

Obfuscated,
What you hide from the light is concealing
Deliberate misleading is deceiving
beguile Deceit, mislead, cheat, make  believe

Obfuscated,
web of lies, in disguise
it’s no surprise there are so many words
for all sorts of lies

Put in the shadows out of the light
In the fog, there’s no clear sight
In dirty water, it’s dark, you don’t see me
The answer is foggy, the message is misty

Obfuscated     
web of lies, in disguise - web of lies, in disguise
it’s no surprise there are so many words
for all sorts of lies
Obfuscated     
duplicity
double identity,  who do I trust
one or  none

Let’s face it, you know it
With a good sauce, you will eat it
Let’s face it, you know it
With the right words, you’ll believe it
Let’s face it, you know it
With a nice story you’ll  Buy it
If you want to believe it 
you won’t fight it

Lyrics: Why? 

ieieieiei

The voyeur in me, Stares secretly
What’s meant to hide, Belongs to me
Nothing escapes, That gaze of me
It penetrates your fantasy
The shame you feel, Feel secretly
The joy you feel, Belongs to me

You can ask yourself why
What did you hope to find
When you digged into my mind
What did you expect 

You changed my smile into a cry
You don’t give a fuck, As long as you smile 
As long as you laugh, As long as you smile 
As long as you laugh, You don’t give a shit
About my cry
								
Ieieiei
My brain, a maze, you entered it, My thoughts wild jumping,
I asked for it, You like to touch
I was aware, Still feel the squeezes
Feel them there
Your kitchen table
A mess was it
You cleaned it, but I won’t forget
The voyeur and toucher
How they met

You can ask yourself why
It’s your road and yours alone
I just may walk it with you
But no one can walk it for  you 
It’s your own road and yours alone

Why? ( collab Paploviante Instrumental//Saskia: lyrics+vocals)

My precious heart (collab Ian aka Magician)

I had some wonderfull collabs with Ian. The first song was: “Alive” and i just added in a sort of classic way of singing, my voice (i felt the need to screem it out, just the words I”m alive).
Soon  I made a changed version and added a beat,  and called it “Alive with a heartbeat”… I added my character and Ian was bighearted enough to let me change his creation.
Wow, If you know for an artist, your creations are your children…. Wow!

My precious heart refers to “Alive”. Little words, but the music begins with a little extract of Glinka…and glides over to the sweet, comforting music of Ians instrumental (Precious heart).
Then my ego interferres and the music gets wilder and excited, voice samples with mystical ambience pull and puches along with my voice the track back towards the calm and pleasing instrumental of Ian and Glinka at the end.
My message: my heart beats for many kinds of music. Everyone has  his own path to walk and look for his own style.

State of confusion  lyrics

I went to a doctor because i hear things  that aren’t there
My mind wanders mentally
I hope you take this seriously

Perception deceiving
Perception  Not believing

I’m hearing voices
That no one else hears
The sound ’s so frightening me
Because   i know they aren’t real

Perception deceiving
Perception  Not believing

So doctor you must help me
To chase this voices and visions away

Tell me this hallucinations are only  temporarally

I  feel things moving under my skin
Imagine the state wher” I’m in
State of confusion, depression hallucination
confusion, depression hallucination
