Simone

Sweet and sour, He’s got the point, While you’re 
Hosting their power, Moon turns black, Fire’s on 
Baby you just gotta move on, Oh 
baby you just gotta move on

Cherish your own kind of truth
Play your own kind of blues, 
You’ve got nothing to loose, 
Wanna good feeling? 
Oh it comes with a strike

You’re invited tonight 
To start living your life
Ready Or Not
Time is up
You’ve got to explore, 
You’ve got to believe
Wild and unknown, 
Will get you relief

But nobody is forcing your thrill, 
Aquaductus was made to prove you don’t need to worry, 
They’ve got your back, 
But is it a story, or just a pamphlet, 
Go with the flow and you’ll get to the sewage, 
And all that control and your minimum wage, 
will suck you in or, if instead you might wanna better scene, 
as easy as that, 
Demanding your rights will prove you can fight

You’re invited tonight 
To start living your life

Ready Or Not
Time is up
You’ve got to explore, 
You’ve got to believe
Wild and unknown, Will get you a relief

You’ve only been where you’ve felt safe before
Just open one more door 
You’re craving to break through
It is awaiting you

You’re invited tonight 
To start living your life
Ready Or Not
Time is up
You’ve got to explore, 
You’ve got to believe
Wild and unknown, 
Will get you relief
Wild and unknown, 
Will get you relief
Will get you relief
Will get you relief

How Was I Supposed To Know

Upside Down 

You leave it all behind 
To find your piece of mind
Dry your eyes, don’t disguise 
And justify your pride

What if I do
Find something new 
That will turn my world upside down

These are the good old days
We cannot erase 
What we hold on to 
Has long been gone
Scared of letting go 
You’re still on the run 
Waiting to come undone 

What if you do
Find something new 
That will turn my world 
Upside down 

Walk down the avenue
You step into your past
She was the one you knew 
Who knew it wouldn’t last? 

What if you do
Find you’re a fool 
It’s long overdue 
None the less 

These are the good old days
We cannot erase 
What we hold on to 
Has long been gone
Scared of letting go 
You’re still on the run 
Waiting to come undone 

What if you do
Find something new 
That will turn my world 
Upside down 

Long overdue
You find your proof 
That makes you let go of the ground

Upside Down

Every time I look at you, if feelin' blue
The clouds part
My love

And if I stumble all the way,
You take my hand and light my way
My love

And it comes as no surprise
I'll give you my french fries

'Cuz anytime that we could
And anytime that we would
And anytime we had a chance to escape
We've chosen to stay

And when you look at me this way
With shine your eyes persuade 
It melts my heart 

I still don’t know quite what the hell 
and why for me you fell, 
you say True Love

And it costs no extra price 
You add spice to all my pies 

'Cuz anytime that we could
And anytime that we would
And anytime we had a chance to escape
We’ve chosen to stay

My Love

I don’t have to run anymore
Have you heard the news?
I don’t have to hide anymore
Have you seen?
I wrap my arms around you and I think
I found truth In your eyes, there is so much to see

Home for Christmas
I built home for Christmas
Where I’m not alone
Like when you phoned me last year when I was near
But you didn’t need me here
Oh dear

I don’t have to feel loneliness in my heart and soul
I have learnt to find inner strength to help me
I don’t have to prove you wrong
I need to carry on
with all the things that I have never seen

Home for Christmas
I built home for Christmas
Where I’m not alone
Like when you phoned me last year when I was near
But you didn’t need me here 
Oh dear

Home For Christmas

Originally released and performed by Elvis Presley in 1969
I love this song so felt like recording myself singing it along to strumming my acoustic.  Inspired in part by the Ingrid Michaelson version featured in the recent film "Crazy Rich Asians"

Amanda Cross's Album

Can't Help Falling In Love (Cover by Amanda Cross)

Someday I’ll get that letter written
Someday I’ll get that letter sent
Someday I’ll finally find the words
To explain to you exactly what I meant

But when is someday?
When will we find the time?
To do all the things
That we had in mind
When is someday?
When is someday?
When is someday?
When is someday?

Someday I’ll go through all those papers
Someday I’ll study for that test
Someday I’ll go to bed real early
And finally catch up on that badly needed rest

But when is someday?
When will we find the time?
To do all the things
That we had in mind
When is someday?
When is someday?
When is someday?
When is someday?

When is someday?
When will we find the time?
To do all the things
That we had in mind
When is someday?
When is someday?
When is someday?
When is someday?

something dark has burnt out, giving up your ways
rollover on your side, and give it all away
and I'm too pale to be me, again
it's not surrender it's just now
you know you're strong enough to make it, somehow. faith
I'm done with fairy tales, I'm done with never-ending scares
I thought I knew me but, that wasn't me
knew the child was growing torn,
the ghosts still smiling on and on, and you
a promise left in the rain, again
you don't see me, you don't see, me
and then I lost my mind.

Blackk

Indie rock band with a soul and attitude. 
Olya took a leap of faith when at twenty-one she left Moscow for New York City with just a backpack and a dream of making music. Landing on the Lower East Side, she immersed herself in the city’s music scene playing keyboard and touring with Jesse Malin, sharing the stage with Urge Overkill, Clem Burke (Blondie), Wayne Kramer. It was after a show at a rock club on the Bowery that Olya met drummer Brian Viglione (Dresden Dolls, Violent Femmes, Nine Inch Nails), a meeting that would prove to be fateful for both of them. 

Their chemistry was immediate with Brian bringing life to the songs that Olya had been writing. Before long, the two formed Scarlet Sails, rounding out the line up with guitarist Mark Kohut and bassist Dave Lowenthal. Centered around Olya’s sultry, power-house vocals, Scarlet Sails craft an elaborate blend of rock & pop, with uniquely catchy melodies, passionate and reflective lyrics and an undeniable swagger that has drawn comparisons to artists as diverse as David Bowie, Nico, Radiohead and Oasis. 

In April 2017 Scarlet Sails released their debut Future from the Past to critical acclaim, with Consequence of Sound premiering the album and Impose Magazine lauding the band’s “pure rock n’ roll vibes”. The band supported the release with three national tours and a New Year's Eve show in Moscow. 

January 2018 saw Scarlet Sails head back to the studio with producer, Ben Rice (Norah Jones, The Candles, Elliot & the Ghost) to begin work on a series of singles, with the first “Hideaway” set for an April 13th release.
