When Sean (http://soundcloud.com/something-memorable) suggested we do something together I was only too keen to work with him. Sean's work always resonated with me (we're probably stalked by the same demons) and I really felt it an honour. When he sent me the lyrics, it was almost immediate that the melody came - as if those lyrics set the melody by themselves. They were utterly moving, and when I hear them in song, I still get the shivers. Thank you so much Sean. And your arrangements are most superb indeed. What a pleasure working with you!

OH BURY ME

Bury me on a Mountain, 
Where I’ll be close to God. 
Where I’ll smile watching the heavens, 
And wink up at angels from beneath the sod. 
Oh bury me on a mountain, 
For the snow has melted now. 
For I never could put down roots, 
Now let the wild flowers show me how.

Bury me in the Desert, 
The ground will be bone dry. 
There been too much Whiskey in my life, 
Time to give abstinence a try. 
Oh Bury me in the Desert, 
Where the sun has no tears to cry. 
Too many untruths have passed my lips, 
Now the sands will hide where I lie.

Bury me by the Ocean. 
Where the sunsets slips behind the waves. 
And the sea can whisper the endless 
Prayers over my grave. 
Oh Bury me by the Ocean, 
Where sea birds wheel and screech. 
In my time I stole too many kisses, 
Now only the waves will kiss the beach.

Oh bury me in that place 
That place somewhere 
If there no trace left to find me 
At least you’ll know 
I’m at peace out there.

Bury me in the Valley, 
Where the river has no name. 
And the willows rustle with the grace 
Of beauty that can’t be tamed. 
Oh bury me in the Valley, 
In days when summer has begun. 
I’ve drunk to much in my life, 
Now the green grass can drink in the sun.

Bury me in a Gold Mine. 
In the cool stillness of cut stone. 
Where the water’s constant dripping, 
Will sing a requiem for my soul. 
Oh bury me in a Gold Mine, 
Leave no trace of me above the ground. 
For I lost all the loves of my life. 
Let me rest where something precious has been found.

NOTHIN' LIKE THE SOUND	
OF RAIN COMIN' DOWN	
ON A COLD WINTER'S MORNIN'	
WHILE YOU'RE SLEEPIN'	
	
NOTHIN' LIKE THE SOUND	
OF BACON FRYIN' IN A PAN	
WHEN YOUR WAKIN' UP	
ON A COLD WINTER MORNIN'	
	
(CHORUS)	
WINTER RAIN COMIN' DOWN	
WHILE THE WORLD GOES ROUND	
WINTER RAIN COMIN' DOWN	
NOTHING LIKE THAT SOUND	
	
TO COLD TO GO OUTSIDE	
TO BORED TO STAY INSIDE	
A TIME OF FRUSTRATION	
AND A LITTLE DEPRESSION	
	
WE LONG FOR A SUNNY DAY	
SO WE CAN GO OUT SIDE AND PLAY	
BUT THE WINTER RAIN	
KEEPS COMIN' DOWN	
	
(REPEAT CHORUS)	
	
MY FRIEND, DON'T DESPAIR	
A REVIVAL IS SPREADING	
AND SPRING IS COMING	
CAN YOU FEEL IT IN THE AIR	
	
(REPEAT CHORUS - OPTIONAL)

Winter Rain - Collab by Tony Harris & Glenny G's "One Man Band" - Original

Written and Performed by Josh McAlexander

Get me to Gloryland (Original)

Song about love as a shelter against inclemency of life (translated lyrics below).

By means of some weather sounds, I oppose precise dark parts to more colored ones, with serious work till 3:25 when I had fun jamming, so you can skip to 4:20 & enjoy great outro !!

Clarinet was borrowed from my sister for summer practice. Reed & keywork managing is difficult for a beginner, & home cohabitance was set on serious risk, but with painful effort I got something presentable, or so I hope, as not willing to repeat soon...

Pic: edited eyefish photo taken by my other sister during one of my hard summer rehearsals.

Sunny Autumn Day

With the advent of our democratically chosen fascist plague looming I'm going to reprise this one which is basically about -- wait a minute I don't do  "it's about's"  --  it's about whatever you think it's about.  I feel it now more than four years ago when I wrote it.

Do you see the same things I do 
in morbid visions of the night
I'll confess I'm in need of some discipline
a circumcision of the mind

a single moment's indecision can mean the difference of a life
wait for the signs of antipathy
I'll be coming right behind

is it time to take our things and go running for the line
there's nothing here that's worthy of the sacrifice
why keep me waiting in the dark
as if you and I were born to all this suffering in our stars

Jacob wrestled in the desert
with an angel who would not give his name
does faith only come to me in my anguish and shame

witness to your own decline
you just lie and tell yourself it's alright

SONG NOTES AND LYRICS:
Let the rain come down 
Take this river to the sea
Let the rain come down
Take this river to the sea
Way out here
Just the rain and the river and me

Let the rain come down 
The things this old river has seen 
Let the rain come down 
The things this old river has seen
Way out here
It’s just the rain and the river me

From the top of this hill 
How this river flows
Doing what a river does 
What a river knows 
Let the rain come down 
Take the river where the river goes 

Let the rain come down 
What will be will be 
Let the rain come down 
What will be will be 
Way out here
Just the rain and the river and me

Already Came To Know

This my first ever song with lyrics. 
The piano version of this song is at 
https://soundcloud.com/konrad-spittelberg/the-new-years-queue-piano-miniature
Check out my other music here: https:\\konrad-spittelberg.carrd.co

In the New Year's Queue

On a crisp and sunny morning, I step inside the market hall
Buying treats and sparkling wine, for our New Years party at night fall
My thoughts are drifting to the evening, dreaming of a joyful night
I dream of dance, of friends of fancy fashion– tonight is gonna feel allright

And then arrive at the counter - no, that's euphemistic to say
‘cause the end of the line is 20 meters away
Patience tested but my pulse still stays rested
I glance at my watch, just sufficient time still at hand
But if I get delayed, my day won't go as I planned
“Come on, why can’t you just move along?”

An elderly 
-- couple decides that they want to get 
--rid of all their coupons
They search their bags with amazing endurance - it’s a geriatric marathon
They turn each leaflet individually – is it still good?
I feel the pressure slowly rising under my hood
 
why do I have to waste my time in line - what's the deal?
how did I end up here - I must attest -- this gets a surreal feel
Every minute feels like hours, I’ve got to  go
Stuck in this snail trail that is creeping so slow

--- A man wants to pay 
his whole purchase with coins and he counts them with intricate care 
--- But then he mixes them up 
and so the count repeats again, 
--- as the line waits in ever increasing despair
his fingers start to tremble even more 
as he tries to build piles
 --- if it were for me
I would strongly support a law 
That would put this guy  into eternal exile

 Clench my fists till they’re white
Try to resist the anger that is building up inside of me
Hormones storming, my vision forming a tunnel
That is filled to the top with a bloody red sea
I must confess, it was no clever plan
To use my cart, As a battering ram
First it caused a shopping cart traffic jam
And then the first blow started to hit  into my belly

You will understand that I needed to defend my stand
Fists were flying there were children crying I did not care
Rage was holding me in its clutch
My composure breaking, this was getting too much
As I went down under kicks and blows


And the last thing that I’m able to recall
I was smashed against a wall
It nearly  broke  my skull
Conciousness waved politely bye bye 

I woke up the following day in a hospital
the bruises were not really critical
but my enthusiasm for this new year had faded to null

Around next Christmas, 
I'll mind my own business
And leave all the parties behind 
And will try  …
… to unwind

The New Year's Queue (Piano Poetry)

New start after finishing SC and Spotify Album - Eccentricity so Beautiful.
This title jumped off a page and lately in the live act we've been doing some 80s songs: I think that influenced the approach here.
 
Decarbonizing Aviation
Decarbonizing Aviation
 
It’s a new concsiousness
Vapor trails gone West
Sometimes you got to make a change
To keep love on forever’s path
Your shaking trees are exhausting me
Better a sundown heart to heart
 
Decarbonizing Aviation – night swimming and seeing it spark
Decarbonizing Aviation – going steady yeah not too fast
 
Glaciers and shrinking
Habitats and mourning
Can we glide the plane back home
Gotta give up on bad bad stuff
Seven days of denial nights
I think we know that enough’s enough

Decarbonising Aviation

un grand merci à Lena https://soundcloud.com/user-262019520 pour ses cœurs qui ajoutent un peu de douceur, très bonne écoute, merci d'avance.

Paroles :
Un chemin sans détour
Nos rêves d’enfants de retour
Illumine chacun de nos pas 
Être alors ce que l’on croit
Libéré des illusions provisoires
De ces pensées dérisoires
Partir loin de ces chagrins
L’authenticité n’a pas de fin
Le bonheur caché au fond de nous 
Qu’il faut chercher avant tout
La simplicité si subtile
Un jour rejoindre enfin son ile
Alors Dieu nous parlera
Et il nous montrera la voie 
De l’amour, la sagesse et la vie
Nous le savons, cela n’a pas de prix

Refrain :
Alors décide toi ma belle
Je t’attendrai au bas de l’échelle
Mais ne me laisse pas là
Sinon je vais mourir de « foi »
J’ai préparé tous les bagages
Je te promets d’être plus sage
Encore une fois tu as le choix
Sois ferme et prend bien soin de toi


Spontanément sans détour
Oublier ce vieux compte à rebours
Rechercher à l’intérieur de soi
Percevoir, changer ce qui ne va pas 
Couper les liens qui nous efface 
Dans ce labyrinthe trouver sa place
De la joie à l’intérieur de notre chaire
Capable de percer les mystères 
En nous subsiste une oasis
Qui réanime sans artifice
Accepter de partir en exil
Sans limitation inutile
Une étincelle au fond des yeux
Viendra rallumer le feu
Motivation divine
Cette énergie nous illumine

Alors ou en es-tu ma belle
Je t’attends là, au bas de l’échelle
Ne me laisse pas comme ça
Sinon je vais mourir de « foi »
J’ai préparé tous les bagages
Je te promets d’être plus sage
Encore une fois tu as le choix
Sois ferme et prend bien soin de toi




Une petite place pour l’imaginaire
Un peu d’espace, un bol d’air
Retrouver nos moments disparus
A l’intérieur, le paradis perdu
Fuir les critiques systématiques
Redevenir pacifique
Plonger dans de belles pensées
Dès l’aube se laisser transporter
Les yeux tournés vers l’infini
Au son de douces mélodies
Ecouter son instinct
L’authenticité nous fait du bien
Accepter tout ce qui nous dépasse
Gagner en force et faire face
Ne plus jamais faire le sourd
A tout l’amour qui nous entoure

Alors décide toi ma belle
J’attends encore au bas de l’échelle
Mais ne me laisse pas là
Sinon je vais mourir de « foi »
J’ai préparé tous les bagages
Je te promets d’être plus sage
Encore une fois tu as le choix
Sois ferme et prend bien soin de toi

Happy New Year ! This is a bit different , hope you like it !
Well this year it won't be so full on , personal reasons will be limiting my available time to write and record , so I will be moving at a slower pace , which is a bugger but it can't be helped . In the meantime there is a few nearly finished songs and a great completed one with Gaz and Nat , out on the 11th . If you get chance have a listen to a track or three from me and Charlottes album Hopes and Dreams - Charlie and the Fox https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_nWWNcrIRv08J_eEbL7MJ_1UTdMo0MjJLM

The Fire Within

Lyrics:-
There's a gentle breeze
Blowing around me
I can feel it in
The things that people say today

Increasing every week
In the things I see
In the folks who start
Questioning reality

We are in
The calm before the storm
Here come the winds of change
To Take over everything

Texte Français et Google traduction

DANS UN AUTRE MONDE

Oui, je suis amoureux
Et j’en ai bien conscience
C’est un plaisir pour deux
Jamais gagné d’avance
Au hasard de rencontres
C’est un bien que l’on prend
Alors quand on le montre
C’est que l’on aime vraiment

Oui, je suis amoureux
Je ne voulais y croire
En pensant que pour eux
C’était une belle histoire
Je voyais pour les autres
Sans même me regarder
Et puis un jour la notre
Est venue me chercher

Je me retrouve dans un autre monde
Heureux comme tout
Et mon bonheur abonde
Dans le cœur de partout.

Oui, je suis amoureux
Que puis-je de plus vous dire
Je suis un homme heureux
Retrouvant un sourire
L’amour çà nous repose
C’est un autre pays
La vie, c’est peu de chose
Donner c’est prendre aussi

Je me retrouve dans un autre monde
Heureux comme tout
Et mon bonheur abonde
Dans le cœur de partout.

Oui, je suis amoureux
Un beau bonheur de l’être
Car à ce grand jeu
C’est tous les jours une fête
Il y a des gagnants
A la lot’rie du cœur
J’y croyais plus avant
C’était une grosse erreur

Je me retrouve dans un autre monde
Heureux comme tout
Et mon bonheur abonde
Dans le cœur de partout.

IN ANOTHER WORLD

Yes, I'm in love
And I am well aware of it
It's a pleasure for two
Never won in advance
By chance encounters
It is a good that we take
So when we show it
It’s what we really love

Yes, I'm in love
I didn't want to believe it
Thinking that for them
It was a beautiful story
I saw for others
Without even looking at me
And then one day ours
Came to pick me up

I find myself in another world
Happy like everything
And my happiness abounds
In the hearts of everywhere.

Yes, I'm in love
What more can I tell you
I am a happy man
Finding a smile again
Love rests us
It's another country
Life is little
Giving is also taking

I find myself in another world
Happy like everything
And my happiness abounds
In the hearts of everywhere.

Yes, I'm in love
A beautiful joy of being
Because in this great game
Every day is a party
There are winners
To the lottery of the heart
I believed in it more before
It was a big mistake

I find myself in another world
Happy like everything
And my happiness abounds
In the hearts of everywhere.

i forgot to not think about anything at all
i really dropped the ball
never gonna make it to the hall a fame
that's a shame-
everybody ought to have a shot to show the people what you got

it doesnt matter now cause i'm old
or so i'm told
but what the hell does anybody know anyway
this is only one of infinite scenarios
everybody ought to turn the volume up on their Stereos everybody ought to turn the volume up on their Stereos

Infinite Scenarios  ~with ↯Mahan↯💀↯Mahan↯ (turn the volume up on your stereo)

Falling down

You lead a merry dance
Spin me round and round
'Til we all fall down
Falling down

And when I try to follow
I'm always falling down
My feet can't match the music
I feel like I'm a clown

Sometimes I catch your rhythm
I feel on solid ground
Then we all fall down
Falling down

You march to a different drummer
You hear a different sound
So we all fall down
Falling down

And when I try to follow
I'm always falling down
My feet can't match the music
I feel like I'm a clown

Out of Step

I've always believed that this song would sound much better if it was sang as a male/female duet.

I asked Debbie if she would like to join me on the song and I was very happy when she said yes.

She did a marvellous job and added that extra dimension to the song that I always thought was missing.

Watch the video here:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=111kVlpZGfA

Hope you like it.

There’s a girl sits all alone
In her world she calls her own
She cries at night cos he has gone

There’s a boy sitting in his car
Sad brown eyes staring out afar
The jukebox plays their favourite song

Chorus

They should be together
Instead of apart
They are one body
They share one heart
It seems so senseless
It went too far
She was his woman
He was her man

Solo

What’s the story, why is it so
Why it happened no one knows 
Don’t be foolish,  give her a call

Chorus x 2 

She was his woman – He was her man

They should be together(Cooper/DLynn Collaboration)

I hope you enjoy this feel- good old school rap/disco/EDM/ space funk  song.
From the album : "Curiosities Of Outsider Art" (2025)

Lyrics:
The ghosts that live in the sidewalk cracks
We're here because of their fight
Why does the magic disappear
At a higher  Fahrenheit?
If u want a revolution
You're gonna have to work at night
I talked to our basement saytr's
They say they won't bite

Learn to dance
Do the dance
Forget the dance
Do it all over again

Whatever sets your spirits free!

Walking down the street 
Looking like discount store dynamite
A roller coaster love affair
But I was too short to ride
Temporary ecstasy
Doesn't mean the world's alright
Mad, it's the end of the party?
Take it up with the light
Yogi dispensing miracles
Blind in his 3rd eye sight
I went to New York City
She was a Brooklynite
I'm a poet with a million rhymes
I never have time to write
Watch these inner galactic moves
With my space age satellite

Take your power
Use your power
Focus your power
(Take your power, focus your power and use your power!)

Looking back
To the chicken shack
Eating greasy food
You're going to have a heart attack
Avoid the trap
You maniac
I don't buy my soul
Off the rack

Whatever sets your spirits free!

All the nasty things I said
Because I thought It was right
If you want to feel your humanity
Then help with another's plight
All the haters that destroy your joy
Tell them their full of shite
I'm the Minister of Propaganda
I keep that groove locked down tight
(locked down tight)

I'm a drunk bear
And I'm tearing up the picinic site
The history of the world's knowledge
On 1 million terrabyte
I'm the friend in the burning building saying
"It's gonna be alright,"
This is the reason I can carry on
And I never lose my appetite

Whatever sets your spirits free!

Whatever Sets Your Spirits Free

TUPELO IS 40 MILES WEST OF WHERE HE LIVES
AND MUSCLE SHOALS IS 60 MILES NORTH 
HE GREW UP LISTENIN' TO ELVIS
AND SONGS RECORDED IN THE SHOALS 

WHEN HE DRIVES DOWN THE STREETS 
IN DOWN TOWN TUPELO 
LOOKIN' AT THE GUITAR CUTOUTS
HE CAN FEEL THE MUSIC IN THE AIR

THE MUSCLE SHOALS SOUND STUDIO
IS WHERE BROWN SUGAR WAS RECORDED
AND MANY OTHER GREAT HITS
BY FOUR GUYS CALLED THE SWAMPERS

MANY HITS HAVE BEEN RECORDED
IN RICK HALL'S FAME STUDIOS IN THE SHOALS
AND ARE STILL BEING RECORDED TODAY
SOMETHING ABOUT THE RIVER AND MUSIC

(CHORUS)
THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT TUPELO HONEY
THAT MAKES HIM WANT TO LISTEN TO SOME ELVIS
THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT MUSCLE SHOALS 
THAT MAKES HIM WANT TO LISTEN TO ROCK N ROLL
TUPELO HONEY AND ROCK N ROLL

TOURING ELVIS'S TWO ROOM HOUSE IN TUPELO
AND THE HIS GRACELAND MANSION IN MEMPHIS
MAKES HIM WANT TO GO BACK IN TIME
TO THOSE GOOD TIMES AT SUN RECORDS 

TOURING THE ALABAMA HALL OF FAME
AND DRIVIN' BY FAME STUDIO'S
MAKES HIM WANT TO GO BACK IN TIME 
AND MAKE SOME WORDS RHYME

(REPEAT CHORUS)

LUMI

Based upon a true story...
Lyrics,
He had listened to the talk
On the radio
Filling up his mind
From an early morning show

On his way to work
But something is amiss
He drives onto the lot
Checking the address

He must have been disturbed
By something that was said
Words that crawled into
and burrowed in his head

The quiet man who lived next door
Who had always been polite
Whoever could have known
That something wasn't right

No one could explain
The thing that happened next
No answers could be found
Within his rambling text

Just another fan
At the studio
Looking for the man
Who is talking on the show

Walking to the door
Quickening his pace
Looking through the window
He sees the speakers face

He must have been disturbed
By something that was said
Words that crawled into
and burrowed in his head

He had listened to the talk
On the radio
Filling up his mind
From an early morning show

A radio anchor was fatally shot by a man inside his southern Philippine station Sunday in a brazen attack that was witnessed by people watching the program live on Facebook.
Police said the gunman gained entry into the home-based radio station of provincial news broadcaster Juan Jumalon -- who went by the name "DJ Johnny Walker" -- by pretending to be a listener. He then shot him twice during a live morning broadcast in Calamba town in Misamis Occidental province, police said


Morning Show

Alaska Does She Miss Me (Gaz Brownie)

A song on the mini boss again.
Inspired about reading an article on Alaska oil rigs and story’s from the roughnecks who work on them.
It’s a harsh cold place and they spend months apart from families, wife’s & partners.
One particular story of an Englishman that stood out was that he wasn’t certain that his love would be still waiting ….

V1
Ice flowers form 
on my windowpane
The Hope of spring and all it’s brings 
a painful winter out here
eternity since I last kissed her 

Chorus 
Alaska your so cold
Oh Alaska I wanna go home
To the warm embrace
Of my English Rose 
Alaska I wanna ask her 
Oh Alaska I need to ask her 
Does she miss me x3
Like I miss her

V2
The oil rigs they can dwarf a man 
The moneys good for the roughneck 
Saved a deposit for a our house
But being away there is no doubt 

Chorus 

V3
It’s time now for me to return 
The cold in my bones as made me old 
I hope everything is as it should
No reason to be misunderstood

Finish on chorus

I wrote this for a 10th grade English project after reading 'To Kill A Mockingbird'. It was one of the first songs I ever wrote and the earliest song I remember how to play. Incidentally, I remember very little about the book at this point:/

(Blues/Rock)  
WELL, I WAS WALKIN' OUT THE DOOR…  
JUST WHAT DID I FEEL?  
YOU KNOW I FELT THE RAIN
  IT WAS POURIN' DOWN ON ME  
JUST POURIN' DOWN ON ME… OH, YEAH!  
  THEN I JUMPED IN MY CAR…..  
WELL, I TURNED ON THE KEY  
OF COURSE THE CAR WOULDN'T START
  HOW COULD THIS BE  …..
HAPPENIN’ TO ME?  
JUMPED THE CAR OFF
  …….AS I WAS DRIVIN' DOWN THE ROAD
  I HEARD A BUMPIN' SOUND
  A TIRE BLEW OUT   
WELL, I STOPPED THE CAR
  AND I OPENED THE TRUNK
  OF COURSE THE SPARE WAS FLAT
……IMAGINE THAT?
 WE WERE RUNNING FLAT
  I REACHED FOR MY CELL
  TO CALL OUT FOR HELP   
OF COURSE THE PHONE WAS DEAD  
WITHOUT A CHARGER IN SIGHT 
  FLAGGED A CAR DOWN  
JUST TO ASK FOR HELP
  BLEW HIS HORN  
AS THEY DROVE ON BY  
(CHORUS )  
WELL, I WAS HAVIN'   
ONE OF THOSE DAYS  
WHEN NOTHIN'S RIGHT
  ONE OF THOSE DAYS  
NO HELP IN SIGHT
  ONE OF THOSE DAYS  
OH YEAH, ONE OF THOSE DAYS  
(BRIDGE)  
HAVE YOU EVER HAD?  
ONE OF THOSE DAYS  
PRAY YOU NEVER HAVE
(OH….BRING IT ON HOME, TOM!!!)  
(CHORUS)

IN THE GARDEN - Beth Williams

Remembering old friends and places with such great images.  This song
was written by Lyle Lovett and Robert Earl Keen Jr,. while they attended
Texas A&M in the late 70's. It was released by Lyle in 1986.  What an American singer and songwriter.  A gem of a song

This is my first solo venture. It's an album of ten songs and it can be downloaded  from bandcamp free,or for whatever you deem it worth. I'd be happy if you just take a copy and listen to my musical ramblings. 
Thanks to all who take the time.  :)

A while back I viewed s/c as merely a hosting platform for posting on forums,but then I realised there was access to so many wonderful compositions by other folk,it then became my prime source of listening to music.
This little corner of the internet is actually a thriving musical community where nobodies such as myself can share songs with the great and the good.
All that just has to be positive and welcome.
Thanks to all who listen and comment,be assured I will return the favour,as I love finding new artists. Please don't follow me if you are going to unfollow,I only wish to listen and share music,I am not a follower collector.


Songs are a mix of solo work with all instruments played by myself,plus my own world weary vocals! I tend to favour my home made Telecasters and a Strat,though the odd acoustic makes an appearance. I use Logic Pro X and am a recent convert to DAW.

I play and write for the joy of expression and always with the hope my songs may be a positive force to anyone who takes time to listen. I'm an old boy now,so I harbour no dreams of success in the conventional sense,having the odd comment is just fine for me. Thanks to all who bother.

 Also earlier songs from a project in 2015, with Fiona and Martin Magill,Vocals and keys. Martin is a very talented working keyboard player,but sadly Fiona no longer sings. Our loss.
Lastly there are tracks from late 80s/early 90s from SOS,a band I was in back then.
