Lyrics
You can choose your shirt
Fix your hair how you want
You can run your game
Select the best restaurant

You can wear that skirt
Put on your favourite jeans
But there is just one thing
That you cannot pick between

He can check all the boxes
Seem like a dream
But that dont mean anything

You dont get to choose who you fall in love with
You dont get to choose who you fall in love with
You dont get to choose who you fall in love with
You dont get to choose who you fall in love with

You can pretend youre straight
Be a good Muslim girl
But no force-fed mate, or marriage can rock your world
Cause pretty soon that crack will run right across your face
Cause love dont care about the politics of disgrace

She can check all the boxes
Seem like a dream
But that dont mean anything

Cause like fiddles and foxes
Cookies and cream
Itll make you go ding, ding, ding!

You dont get to choose who you fall in love with
You dont get to choose who you fall in love with
You dont get to choose who you fall in love with
You dont get to choose who you fall in love with

FLYING TURTLE

Instrumental, Vocals, Lyrics & Mix by Garddwr Porffor: https://soundcloud.com/garddwrporffor
Vocals, Vocal Melody, Poetry Selection by Nadia Selvaggi

Poem extracts taken from Mr. Maurice Roberts' metrical version of Davydd Benvrass' Ode to Prince Lleweylyn (fl. 1230–1260) Translation by The Cambro-Briton (1820)

*Lyric & melody sung by Garddwr Porffor by Garddwr Porffor

*Davydd Benvrass was a Court Bard for the Kingdom of Gwynedd, including the period of Prince Llewelyn ap Iorwerth's reign (Llewelyn the Great), which accounts for the jingoistic nature of the text. This poem is one of a number of Benvrass' works celebrating Llewelyn's victories in battle with King John of England. 

Creator of that glorious light,
Which sheds around his vivid rays,
And the pale moon which rules the night,
O deign to animate my lays!
O, may my verse like Merddin's flow!
And with poetic visions glow.
Great Aneurin, string my lyre,
Grant a portion of thy fire!
That fire, which make thy verse record,
Those chiefs who fell beneath the sword
On Cattraeth's bloody field:
O! May the muse her vigor bring
While I Llewelyn's praises sing,
His country's strongest shield.
Ne'er was such a warrior seen,
With heart so brave and gallant mien:
From a regal race descended,
Bravely he the land defended,
Kings have learnt his pow'r to dread,
Kings have felt his arm and fled.
Loegria's king with conquest flush'd,
Boldly to the battle rush'd,
Then was heard the warlike shout,
(Signal of the approaching rout)
Great Llywelyn raged around,
Bravest Chieftains press'd the ground,
None his valour could withstand,
None could stem his furious hand,
Like a whirlwind on the deep,
See him through their squadrons sweep.

Come my love
Don't dwell upon the things we have lost
Pride and passion, honour, love,
sought at such a cost
We never did understand the twisting of the ways
It will serve us best to lift our heads
and think of better days

Then was seen the crimson flood,
Then was Offa bathed in blood,
Then the Saxons fled with fright,
Then they felt the monarch's might.
Far is heard Llywelyn's name,
Resounded by the trump of fame;
Oft the hero chased his foes
Where Sabrina smoothly flows.

Long and happy may he live!
And his hours to pleasure give.
And, ere upon his honoured tomb,
Herbs shall rise, and flowers shall bloom

Better Days by Garddwr Porffor & Nadia Selvaggi

Silver Bella recruited her good pal, Paul Claxton (formerly of Ashes and Dreams), to get fun + funky with this mix.
With influences of soul and R&B, Paul added some funky organ, sax and trumpets, and beautiful spacey strings, among other great elements.

You Don't Get to Choose

Silver Bella - You Don't Get to Choose (Paul B. Claxton Mix)

God is Crying - Galpin and Abalero

Mixed by Silver Bella's good friend, Paul Claxton, who added some funky synths, organ, piano and even some cello and violin into the stewpot.

Lyrics:
I had a glance at a chance relation
But romance like that never blew my mind
Blew my mind

I couldn't dance in a trance elation
The circumstance don't enhance
What I defined
I defined

‘Cause I won't accept less than 10 on 10
And when I met you, it was the perfect blend
And I won't let go until the bitter end
Cause it's you
It's you!

Now we've borne some stormy weather
But I won't leave you alone in the rain
If you're to blame

Cause I've sworn to the Lord forever
To stand by my man through fun and pain
Yeah, every day

And I won't accept less than 10 on 10
And when I met you, it was the perfect blend
And I won't let go until the bitter end
Cause it's you
It's you!

Yeah, baby, it’s always been
Yeah baby, it’s always been
It’s you!

Silver Bella - It's You! (Paul B. Claxton Mix)

Fire red sun by Jess Johnson

Silver Bella asked former band mate Paul B. Claxton (Ashes and Dreams) to help create a good mix of her solo work, Pictures of Tonight. Paul added a cool Latin beat, beautiful horns, a kickin' bass line and vocoder vocals. 
Paul currently lives in Vancouver, British Columbia and performs with various bands there, including Trisektor Projekt @trisektor.

Lyrics (courtesy of Silver Bella):

These magic colours arise
When you walk by
I got you in my sight
So rainbow bright

Got yellow for sadness
That cures any ills
A calm for the madness
As green as the hills

These magic colours arise
When you walk by

Though I’m no Picasso
With you I’d like to try
To break the mold
Fill your soul
With pictures of tonight

I’m gonna take my brush
And fill your skies
With this special touch
Loneliness flies

The landscape of freedom
Takes shape in your eyes
Red hot volcanoes
Erupt like paradise

I’m gonna take my brush
And fill your skies

Though I’m no Picasso
With you I’d like to try
To break the mold
Fill your soul
With pictures of tonight

Though I’m no Michelangelo
With you I’d like to try
To rock and roll
Fill your soul
With pictures of tonight

I’m drawing up sunshine
Blue skies
I’ll paint you anything

I’m drawing up sunshine
Blue skies
I will paint your pain
I will paint your pain away

Lyrics:
Ain’t got no cash and ain’t got no car
Still you managed to get this far
You’re on your way
On your way
On your way
Your destination awaits your star

You can’t have a future without a past
So don’t be looking at the old forecast
Don’t hesitate
Hesitate
Hesitate
Eyes on the prize, the horizon’s vast

Oh tomorrow never looked so good
It can’t be worse than today
So leave your shadow standing where it stood
You gotta keep
Gotta keep
Gotta keep
You gotta keep the faith

Let the egos play their shaming game
They got no hold on the space you claim
You gotta sway
Gotta sway
Gotta sway
Eyes to the front and accept no blame

Oh tomorrow never looked so good
It can’t be worse than today
So leave your shadow standing where it stood
You gotta keep
Gotta keep
Gotta keep
You gotta keep the faith

Oh tomorrow never looked so good
It can’t be worse than today
So leave your shadow standing where it stood
You gotta keep
Gotta keep
Gotta keep
You gotta keep the faith

Keep The Faith

Silver Bella is back to sing about the tale of a superspreader who just can't stop s p r e a d i n g her love.  #spreadlovenow

Lyrics video link - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=drzMwsnlVz0

With heaps of thanks to Paul Claxton for help with the saucy R&B flavoured keys, and other bits+pieces.

Lyrics:
Yeah, the secret's out
She's had all sorts around her house
Lepers and layabouts

And the poor police
Had to cuff her and her wayward crowd
Zip tie wrists and taped up mouths

That superspreader
Keeps giving her love for free
And we gotta control her body
'Cause we ain't got an antibody

Better shut her down
'Cause they're blowing horns all over town
And you know the rules

Don't you love your neighbour
Cut your ties with the elderly
If you truly want to be free

That superspreader
Keeps giving her love for free
And we gotta control her body
'Cause we ain't got an antibody

That superspreader
Ain't got no decency
And we gotta control her body
Before she gives it to everybody

Here they come
That crowd
Back down
What's that?

Let freedom ring
Let the people sing
Let freedom ring

That superspreader
Keeps giving her love for free
And we gotta control her body
'Cause we ain't got an antibody

That superspreader
Ain't got no decency
And we gotta control her body
Before she spreads love to everybody

Spreading
Spreading
Spreading
Love!

Step into your power! It's time to claim your natural birthright inside of you. 

Produced by the incredible producer and guitarist Shael Wrinch @user-425535373 along with talented keys player Paul B. Claxton @trisektor. Featuring background vocals from Black Pace @lady-pace.

Lyrics:

Out the door with your head low
Hunched over like an old shadow
Trying to bottle up your soul
Bearing others’ opinions
Like carrying around pure gold
Don’t you know you’re holding coal

Keep your eyes on the road ahead
Puff your chest out and don’t forget

Though your world is quaking
Mind is shaking
Life is a blur
It is time for you 
to step into 
your power

Sitting in your cubicle
Sinking down in your worn out chair
Revelling in your despair
Put down that dead weight
Set it down and walk away
Fill your mind with your escape

Though you’d rather try to run and hide
Once you try it out, you’ll be just fine
Yes, you will

Though your world is quaking
Mind is shaking
Life is a blur
It is time for you 
to step into 
your power

Step into your power
Step into your power
Step into your power
Step into your power

Step Into Your Power

Somethings Got Me (Remastered)

Never Break ft. Mylittlecoffin

Soar Feat. Odarka

Superspreader Feat. SilverBella

When I talked about women with men in the past, I often thought there is something wrong with me. There was boast of how the women were conquered and laid up. I can still hear some of those pompous and bragging sayings today.
I, on the other hand, was always more of a shy man who felt attracted to autonomous, intelligent, sensitive and unconventional women. Women who lured me out of my poetic snail shell rather than the other way around.
And this song tells of my first encounter with such a wonderful woman in Berlin in the 1980s.    

Lyrics in English:

Hello!

Was so unlicked
still untainted by life
all so big  

Was still so dreamy
surrounded by a dress of longing
so I went off

Into the Berlin Winter
to Spandau on the edge of town
East and West still separated by the wall 

The very first night
I spent the night at the club

Hidden in the shade
still unawakened 

There was reggae music playing
and I took the moment
trusted me out

Towards the dance floor
eyes closed by and through
stayed all for me in the stroposcope light

But then there was something
something close to me

Hello!
Hear a voice
Hello!
Somebody says: Hello!
Hello!
I blink out
A strange woman says cheekily: Hello!
You just danced to me

Thought to myself: Just go!
I had blush rising inside me
You stayed all cool

You kissed my fright
away with a mischievous smile
a girl so amazingly fool

Remained with me until the reggae sound
was in its last notes
You left a ticket then

I was so upset
I totally desired you

Just went there
then saw you playing at rehearsals

Hello!
I'm here
say shy: Hello!
Hello!
maybe on a tea
in the black cafe`
You said: Okay

That's how it started with us

3X (Fade Out):
Hello! Just saying Hello!
Hello, Hello, Hello o Hello   


Deutscher Originaltext: 

Hallo!

War so unbeleckt
vom Leben noch unbefleckt
alles so groß  

War noch so verträumt
von einem Sehnsuchts-Kleid umsäumt
so ging ich los

In den Berliner Winter
nach Spandau am Stadtrand
noch trennte Ost und West die Mauerwand

Gleich die erste Nacht
hab` ich im Club verbracht

Im Schatten versteckt
noch nicht erweckt 

Es spielte Reggae-Musik
und ich ergriff den Augenblick
traute mich raus

Zur Tanzfläche hin
Augen zu und durch
blieb ganz für mich im Stroposkop-Licht

Doch dann war was da
irgendwas nah bei mir

Hallo!
Hör` ne Stimme
Hallo!
Jemand sagt da Hallo!
Hallo!
Ich blinzle raus
ne` fremde Frau sagt ganz frech: Hallo!
Du tanztest mich einfach an

Dachte mir: Bloß weg!
in mir stieg Röte auf
Du bliebst ganz cool

Küßtest meinen Schreck
mit einem schelmischen Lächeln weg
a girl so amazingly fool

Bliebst bei mir bis der Reggae-Sound
in den letzten Klängen lag
Du ließt dann ein Ticket da

Ich war so verstört
hab` Dich total begehrt

Ging einfach hin
sah Dich dann spiel`n beim Proben

Hallo!
Ich bin da
Sag` schüchtern: Hallo!
Hallo!
vielleicht auf` nen Tee
im schwarzen Cafe`
Du sagtest: o.K

So fing das mit uns an

3X (Fade Out):
Hello! Just saying Hello!
Hello, Hello, Hello o Hello

Hallo! (Hello!) (Lyrics in English in the Intro)
