This is a cover from Paul McCartney and Wings, from the 1975 album, Venus and Mars, and this album was supported on their 1976 Wings over America tour. They always opened with Venus and Mars/Rockshow
Ken sent Josh and Tez an email a few months back, about maybe covering this awesome rocker, after we released “Hello World." Before responding, Ken reposted his cover of "Richard Cory," a Simon and Garfunkel cover, sung by Denny Laine and Sir Paul on the Wings Over America triple live album. Stephen commented that “Rockshow” was one of the first songs he learned on guitar. Ken said, “Well, here’s your sign!" He freaked and invited Stephen to immediately contact Josh.
We finished everything but the vocals by early June, but were stuck on lead vocalist. Several of the collective gave it a go, but nothing sounded right. Then came a late game idea. We had all been following and fans of The Mysterious Decibel for quite some time, so we asked him if he'd be interested in singing it. He was game, and really delivered what so many could not. He is a new, welcome addition to our mix. You'll also hear Stephen, who accomplished the herculean task of mixing and producing this song, very ably play the entire song on the guitar, with Tez playing the ripping leads.
We hope you enjoy our labor of love that has been an entire summer in the making.

lyrics:

---------------

I heard this story a long time ago
i heard it before, and now i am long gone

I faced my demons and now i'm back strong
not headstrong, at some point i was wrong

butterfingers, we lost control
we slipped away and run away

i cross my fingers, we won't mess it up 
again this time, i hope you'll be fine

you were so sloppy and gave it up
i hope you remember, that i was your crutch

next thing you know, was to lose control
and now you crawl, to save your soul

Ceasefire in Gaza

--------------------

With the war song of a newly hatched queen bee

------

Yard after yard
Law shows its fangs
King's sentences
always to blow Powerless
Powerless
your cage, blessed,
like your heart
tortured by the secret genocide
that you can not even whisper
this secret Genocide
into the desert
this secret genocide
into the desert
of your bleeding eyes
The secret Genocide of all your will and dreams.
The secret Genocide
into the desert now
like into your life.

'Let's Talk About Peace' was inspired by the apparently incessant need of certain so called "elites" (politicians), to engage in never ending war and destruction. Thankfully there are still very many people who are very much against this line of thinking. I am one of them.
So here is a light hearted piece to hopefully bring some light into the darkness.

Glow (Dec. 2023)

This is an extract of the music that goes with the 4th chapter of the tale I'm writing. I just published it here: https://ariad-music.com/textes/aventures-petit-personnage-sans-tete/chapitre-4-danse/ It is in french, but I guess google translate or deepl can do a decent job for translating. This is the story of a headless character who explores the world of dreams in order to find again his head. In this fourth chapter, he's abandoned by his companion the creative bird and will be ordered to work, like everyone else! This music is quickly made using simply MIDI/VST tracks.

La danse (read description)

Hello

I know your feelings are dead for me
Your feelings have been stolen
they're stolen

And your lips
they speak the words
you tell them to
and everything I see in you
You were lying to me
You were lying to me

See me in the darkness 
See me in your mind
See me in the darkness 
See me in the night

x2

That's the sound, of my lyrics going in your head
That's the sound of my lyrics in your head

ONLY METAL DREAMS COME TRUE - STEVEN VELLOU (GOTHIC FUNK) & PAN AT THE PARADOX
>
RAINFALL IN MY LIFE, THE SUNSHINE NEVER CAME
I WAS WILLING TO PAY THE PRICE BUT THE SACRIFICE WAS IN VAIN 
EVERYTHING THE SAME AS ITʼS ALWAYS BEEN
NOW ALL THAT I HAVE LEFT ARE SOME BROKEN DREAMS

NOW MY DREAMS ARE TORN TO SHREDS 
BECAUSE I DIDNʼT THINK AHEAD
TRAPPED INSIDE A FANTASY
THE YEARS IʼVE LOST SHOULD WORRY ME

ONLY METAL DREAMS COME TRUE

DISTRACTED BY MY VANITY
THE DAYS ALL RAN AWAY FROM ME 
WITH DEEP REGRET 
I MUST FORGET EACH WASTED OPPORTUNITY

I FAIL TO REACH MY DESTINY
I LOST THE WAR WITH VANITY
IGNORING WARNINGS, STILL IN MOURNING 
SLAVE TO MY OWN FANTASY

ONLY METAL DREAMS COME TRUE 
IN DAYLIGHT DISAPPEAR FROM VIEW 
ONCE MORE THE FAITS CONSPIRE 
DOUSE UNFULFILLED DESIRES 
TORMENTING ME THIS DE JAVU

RAINFALL IN MY LIFE, THE SUNSHINE NEVER CAME
I WAS WILLING TO PAY THE PRICE BUT THE SACRIFICE WAS IN VAIN EVERYTHING THE SAME AS ITʼS ALWAYS BEEN
NOW ALL THAT I HAVE LEFT ARE MY BROKEN DREAMS

ONLY METAL DREAMS COME TRUE

Thank you to everyone who stopped here and listened to this song.
Your brain sometimes tries to control you. Not only the functions of the body, but also the will!
But you should follow the true voice of your heart. Focus on what excites you and look to the future.
You are the only one who can break the chain.

Be Freed from Restraint (breaking the chain)
