*** RISE ***

Can you see the dawn arising
Can you see the light inside your mind
Can you feel it ?
Love will never die !

Be majestic like a phoenix 
You can be as golden as the sun
You can reach it
Nothing ever really dies !

RISE 
Shine like the sun
Make real your dreams
Realize it's all just make-believe 
Take time and take space
Shape with your hands
Your life's your own
Your master plan...

The universe it has no corners
There's no boundary 
You are not alone 
Are there edges to the oceans' waves ?

So the grass it may be greener
And the rivers may run clearer
So - How'd you know -
If you can't look to the other side ?

RISE
Shine like the sun
Wishes and dreams
And watching them all come true 
You'll see
That finding your way
Is all that it takes 
If you can wait for them to be...

RISE MAJESTIC 
RISE PHOENIX
YOU CAN BELIEVE IT !

RISE 
Shine like the sun
Make real your dreams
Realize it's all just make-believe 
Take time and take space
Shape with your hands
Your life's your own
Your master plan...

Rise

This song is about being stuck in an endless loop of working life, the realisation of never ending monotony, to finally working out how to handle it and the hope of escaping it.

lyrics:
We've been through a lot, a lot of shit
now it's time to fight, fight against
against this depression and evil vibe
this is the time we will take over our lives

We've been submersed deep deep down
we've lost our faith into this evil town
we have to get back, get back to our own feet
we had enough, enough with this shit!

and now we have our head up high
we know what it's true and never dies
and now we step up with god's command
we won't take it anymore, not get stuck into the sand

It won't take forever just to reach our dream
it won't take forever to delete the bad scene
it won't take forever to hold your hand
it won't take forever to the promised land

it won't take forever to live again
it won't take forever to face the sun
it won't take forever, it won't take forever!

Rock and Roll Kills

It Won't Take Forever

we listen to our music and stare at the silver screen
that’s where we got all our wisdom
but we haven’t learned a lesson yet,
no we haven’t learned a lesson yet oh no, oh no

records and concerts and flowers and dope
love-ins and blue jeans and politics and hope
meditation yoga and non pollutant soap, oh yeah
it all loses meaning when you’re crazy and broke
it all loses meaning when your crazy and broke oh no

it’s just the time now to sing the rhyme now,
it’s just the time now to sing the rhyme now,
oh yes i swear now that i’m aware now
oh yes i swear now i say a prayer now

we listen to our music glued to the colored sets
we pretend that we don’t care at all
but we haven’t learned a lesson yet,
no we haven’t learned a lesson yet oh no, oh no

communes and stereos and women’s rights,
it all loses meaning in the new moonlight
dance in the clubs to the lazer lights oh yeah
it's all or nothing, which one is right
its all or nothing, which one is right oh no

it’s just the time now to sing the rhyme now,
it’s just the time now to sing the rhyme now,
oh yes i swear now that i’m aware now
oh yes i swear now i say a prayer

This song is rather long. After all, it's also about a very long journey. We know that not everybody like long songs. We have an excerpt of this song in a completely different version with only guitar accompaniment. That would be the short alternative. But we would be happy if some listeners would make the complete musical journey with us and listen to the full version of the song to the end. Here we go:
Enceladus
Part I: Journey in space:
When we left the earth last year, without any sign of fear
No clue how it would be here

Travelling through the lonely night
Drifting in the milky light
Far away from human sight 

Far away from human life, our mission feels so right
Flying to the icy moon, a journey to the unknown
Enceladus calling us, with the rocket travelling fast
Human dreams we cannot hide, human spirit is our guide
Watch a different cosmic side, all around us the starlight
Travel through eternal night, travel through eternal night

Instrumental Part

Part II: Approaching Enceladus, Landing:
Enceladus’ coming near, Saturn is so huge and clear
Time to change the running gear
Approaching Saturn’s mystical face
After that journey through infinite space
Landing on this moon, foreign stars above
Enceladus as beautiful as love
We’ll explore the ocean under the deep ice
We wonder whether we’ll find traces of life

Travelling through the lonely night
Drifting in the milky light
Far away from human sight

Behind the rings the moon awaits
We’ll explore it’s icy gates
Instruments raised to explore
What’s under the ice and more
Secrets of the inner sea
Cannot wait what we will see, cannot wait what we will see

Instrumental Part

Part III: The scientific mission, getting the results:
(Unfortunately, we are not authorized to present the research results here; this will be done officially. That's why we had to remove this part from our song. Unfortunately, it will take a very, very long time, before the research results are published so we have to ask you to be very patient. )
…
Part IV: Dismantling the camp and heading home:
Enceladus was our home on this mission so alone
Time to leave this icy stone
Packing the instruments with care and grace
We’ll bring our finding through the distant space
In the frozen world under the star’s dome
We gather ‘cause it’s time to go home
Enceladus we will never come back
But about you we’ll create a soundtrack (you have it tight here, the soundtrack)

Camp dismantled and our probes in the crates
Every one ready the countdown awaits
We’ll bring Enceladus’ portrait, 
Destination home, we are on our way

Wait for us ‘cause we bring home amazing research data
And to earth we bring Enceladus’ water

We missed our earth and our people so much
Oh, how we want to feel again the earth’s living touch
Our family faces we long to greet
We will be so happy when we finally can meet
We’ve learned nothing is more important than protecting the earth
Every fight, every sacrifice, every effort it is worth – it!

Journey To Enceladus

Unlike our previous two collabs, Dan does lyrics, vocals and lead guitars on an instrumental by me.
I made a 7/4 track for him, knowing he can sail odd waves, and here you are the fantastic result !!

Verse 1:
A promise was made
And It shouldn’t fade
The words were spoken
Then they was broken

We were in the bright sunshine
I thought she was mine
It’s not something you can pawn
And asa now she is gone

I was here forever beau
It was years ago

Verse 2:
But I thought it still held
Like a solid weld

A promise is a promise
Even for a doubting Thomas
It should carry some weight
It doesn’t have an expiration date

But a last I find
That things can unwind
And we are not together
In this Summer weather

Verse 3:
She made her assurance
But I had no insurance
From the broken promise she made
Yes our romance began to fade

Now I am in the dark
What was there was just a spark
Now I Don’t know
Which way to go

No direction in my life
Yes I’m living in such strife
Wondering if life means anything
My joy has no more spring

I am that sad guy you passed by
Not noticing the tears in his eyes

True stories

Lyrics:
Kelly, she took her Dad's sports car out for a ride
She hit a tree
That girl was just 17 years old when she died
My friend Carew
He always knew what to do
To keep his mind and body healthy
He never drank beer and never smoked pot
Out for a Sunday run
Hit by a Greyhound Bus
Ohh God keeps a messy house
God keeps a messy house

My friend Mike T
He swam out to the sea
Trying to rescue a drowning boy
Who fell down to the bottom of the ocean
I swear this story is true
That boy went on to kill his family
The Lord works in mysterious ways
Lord works in wondrous ways
God keeps a messy house
Works in wondrous
Mysterious ways
God keeps a messy house

God Keeps A Messy House

I was fortunate to attend the International Health Institute conference in London last month and there were sessions run by a woman so passionate and committed to change to improve the delivery of healthcare to the masses and I thought her partner would be so proud . . .

Eccentricity so Beautiful

While life and limb can shatter          
It’s only hearts that matter - In our world - Darlin’ girl
You’re out there proselytizing.
And it’s so mesmerising - that’s your way – an ordinary day   

Something about you rising up      
Is cutting through my filling heart - it’s only love
On your soap box agent change
With so much to de-arrange - with a blast
            
Eccentricity so Beautiful (that’s you girl -it’s your world)

Those rank iconoclasts
Bathe in their master class - impervious - in Ivory towers
Talk as if they’ve got the plan
Line up and shake their hands - feel the grip - the hand of power

You’re raisin’ it from ground up
Changing at the speed of trust – with such feel 
Building leaders everywhere
Co-produce no limit skies – that’s our dream

Eccentricity so Beautiful (that’s you girl -it’s your world)

Exhausted but so energized - Trying to catch you in the eye - Need you close. 
I call you aphrodisiac - Hotel room take care of that – 
On that note

ECCENTRICITY SO BEAUTIFUL

Back to You (I'll Find the Way)

Every time we break away
I feel blue,
just thinking of you

Can’t hide away
from the pain,
feel it night and day

Heart weighs heavy 
on my mind,
thoughts are unkind

So much trouble 
there to find,
I can’t unwind

Only one thing
on my mind,
silence on the line

Without you, 
I can’t rest
It’s meaningless

I feel so lonely I could die
Without you

In the dark my mind plays tricks on me 
you set me free

And when I call out your name
I feel eternity

Has it been a year or just a day
Time’s gone away
Time’s gone away
Time’s gone away

I’ll find the way
To get back to you

Wait there for me,
I’ll be there for you

I’ll find the way
To get back to you

I’ll find the way
To get back to you

I feel so lonely I could die
Without you

In the dark my mind plays tricks on me 
you set me free

Every time we break away
I feel blue,
Just thinking of you

Can’t hide away
From the pain
Feel it night and day

Without you, 
I can’t rest
It’s meaningless

I’ll find the way
To get back to you

Wait there for me,
I’ll be there for you

I’ll find the way
To get back to you

Another relic from the lockdown vault...

I wrote and recorded this at the end of 2020 (hence no mention of the events of Jan 6th 2021) but never released it at the time for various reasons. 

Given recent events I thought why not clean it up and put it out. 

Just a bit of haaahmless fun as Arnie might say :)

Sans liesse suis loin de vous.

Chant : Julia
Musique : Alain Illos

Je suis le preux au fier coursier.
J'ai tout dompté, j'ai tout soumis
Hormis mon roi - longu' soit sa vie -
Fidèle féal comme il sied.

Sans liess' suis loin de vous. 
Dès l'aub', je brod' sur le tambour
Des fleurs de lys, des mots d'amour.

Je porte armure et oriflamme,
Les ponts se baissent sur mon passage.
Rien ne résiste à mon bel âge.
Dieu ! Que ferais-je d'une femme ?

Sans liess' suis loin de vous.
Me mets au lit, défais ma tresse
Et ma ceinture avec souplesse.

Les petits pages et les manants,
Troupeau discret ou bien braillard,
N'osent souiller de leurs regards
Vos éperons d'argent brillant.

Les petits pages et les manants,
Troupeau discret ou bien braillard,
N'osent souiller de leurs regards
Mes éperons d'argent brillant.


Sans liess' suis loin de vous,
Le cœur fiché de vos promesses
Que tous vos départs désavouent.

Oh si je pense à vous, princesse, 
C'est toujours l'épée au fourreau.
Mon intérêt n'va pas plus haut
Car guerroyer je n'ai de cesse.

Sans liess' suis loin de vous.
Me mets au lit, défais ma tresse
Et ma ceinture avec souplesse.

Sans Liesse Suis Loin De Vous   avec Julia

'my own hell'

Most thoughts of mine, well, they must be contained.
Yet somehow they still form words I shouldn't say.
And sometimes I need to be locked in a cage.
Until I can demonstrate that I can manage my brain. 

Why are you fucking with me?
Oh, so abundantly.
It's fucking hard when I can't trust me.
Or anybody else.
So, go on bludgeoning me
until I'm obsolete, 
for this shit will always, forever repeat.
I've become my own hell. 
But I will prevail.
Catch some wind in my sail.
And go blaze my own trail...

my own hell

Illegal dumping has become a problem everywhere. Too much damn stuff. Contrary to the narrators lyrical viewpoint, this is actually a song about over consumption. 
From the album "Röckers" (2024)

Lyrics:
Dyer Road, Dyer Road
It's where you go to unload
All the stuff that you don't want to own
Out on Dyer Road
In the city's unincorporated zone
It's not the dump
It's the unknown
Out on Dyer, Dyer Road

You've got microwave ovens from 1983
A box spring mattress
A VHS of "The Goonies"
It's an area of ill repute
I swear I saw a chicken wire monkey suit
And that love seat that you bought
But, there was no love to be found
At Christmas, you we're so sad
It made you blue
Because for Christmas she gave you
Counterfeit Jordan shoes
Yeah, get it out there
Dispose of it
On Dyer Road

Dyer Road
You treat the earth like it's something on loan
On Dyer Road
We treat the earth like it's rent to own
Dyer Road

The sign says, "Illegal dumpers, they will be fined."
That's why I always go undercover of the nighttime
The County and the City say they can't agree of jurisdiction and enforcement
So I take my stuff out by the power lines
I found an unopened box of Spearmint Gum
I'm gonna resell it on Amazon
Up my income
I feel kind of dumb for buying all this stuff
Excuse me!
Excuse me!
I've got to dispose of this double kick drum
(Double, double, double kick drum)
Out on Dyer Road

Uh huh, on Dyer Road... (Elvis has left the building)

Dyer Road
