My Midnight Memory

To my - and Yes - our dear music friend Sunnidayz Sandy Smile.
The flower is a Hibiscus from my neighbors garden

The Smile
Have You ever reflected of the impact of a smile
that makes You feel fine - when someone smiles
when You enter the store for to buy what You need for this day
it may come from the clerk when You pay for all the stuff that You picked up
and then You can leave - with a feeling in Your heart that the life sometimes is so great

There are smiles that are touching us people at most
when a newborn child - will please to smile
especially if You are the granddad or the grandma of this child
you are bragging a lot to all your friends about this moment
and they show their delight - and it´s obvious that they feel that the life sometimes is so great

When You are playing Your music for people around
and they seem to like - Your songs a lot
and then you can afford to offer a smile at all Your friends 
The eyes reflect the soul, they reveal if any falsehood is taking place
Have a look in the eyes - and then You can confirm that a smile is a lovely thing

Approximate translation into Swedish: 
Leendet
Har du någonsin reflekterat över effekten av ett leende
det får dig att må bra - när någon ler
när du går in i butiken för att köpa det du behöver för den här dagen
det kan komma från kassörskan när du betalar för alla saker som du hämtade
och sedan kan du lämna - med en känsla i ditt hjärta att livet ibland är så bra

Det finns leenden som berör oss människor mest
som då ett nyfött barn - behagar att le
särskilt om du är farfar eller mormor till detta barn
du skryter mycket för alla dina vänner om detta ögonblick
och de visar sin glädje - och det är uppenbart att de känner att livet ibland är så bra

När du spelar din musik för människor i närheten
och de verkar gilla - Dina låtar mycket
och då har du råd att visa ett leende till alla dina vänner
Ögonen speglar själen, de avslöjar om någon lögn sker
Ta en titt i ögonen - och sedan kan du bekräfta att ett leende är en underbar sak

The Smile

Dynamics? Who needs Dynamics.. start loud and get even louder, that's what I say... well I say that every now and then. I just enjoyed banging on guitars and the like for this one. Been a while since I belted one out. 

I'm not sure why this ended up like this.. it could have been a very gentle song about an old man... but that chorus just seemed to demand a big performance.. .. I hope its not too much.


HAUL

Come listen to his story,  take heed of his tales
How the sea raged against them and how they prevailed.
Bringin’ home the catch,  then back to sea once more
Leaving torn nets and the broken men to wait on the shore

He remembers the names and faces of those that never came home
And he weaves them into stories, so their souls don’t sail alone
but can crew with the Heroes, as he retells old myths
Conjuring storyteller’s magic from firelight and mist

But they won’t hold his eye, as they board one by one
He’s the land locked old, they fear to become.

So, haul the nets & hope my boys, Haul the nets and pray
For the sea she does not care for you, She gives but she takes away.
Haul the nets and pray for fish, Haul the nets and believe.
Oh the sea does not care for you, leaves families to grieve.

Through these myths and legends, he can teach the young
And he hope’s they’ll know the lessons when their own perils come
So listen to these stories and take heed of these tales,
For sea, she ever rages, yet we will prevail

Still they won’t hold his eye, as they board one by one
He’s the land locked old, they fear to become.

So, haul the nets & hope my boys, Haul the nets and pray
For the sea she does not care for you, She gives but she takes away.
Haul the nets and pray for fish’ Haul the nets and believe.
Oh the sea does not care for you, leaves families to grieve.

Still they won’t hold his eye, as they board one by one
He’s the land locked old, they’re damned to become.

Haul (Something Memorable)

Me every night
I go out to party
Me every night
They call me

I take my car
With friends
What a waste
Always the same

I am a witness to (Lalalalala)
I am a witness to the night
I am a witness to (Lalalalala)
I am a witness to the night
(Lalalalala) x2

Do not look for me when there is sun
I'm sure I'm not
I am a witness to the night
I don't have to tell you
What are you looking to find me
It's a lifestyle
I wear a brooch moon


I take my car
With friends
What a waste
Always the same

I am a witness to (Lalalalala)
I am a witness to the night
I am a witness to (Lalalalala)
I am a witness to the night
(Lalalalala) x4

Spin Her Around the Room 
Music and Lyrics by Mike Krath


Life is like a party sometime
Life is like a parade
Life is like a party sometime
But sometimes there is rain. 

I once fell for a woman as clumsy as me
Who fell in my arms on the dance floor,
we helped each other two-step around,
and then decided to dance no more.

But as we left, she tripped over my foot
And fell and hit her head,
I was too embarrassed to see her after that,
and hurried home, instead.

But several months later when I had no dates,
when I felt my life was through,
I decided to go back to that club
To see if she might be there, too. 

And lo and behold she was there that night
and came to where I sat,
Hey! Look at you! After all these months,
I was wondering where you were at.

I’ve been looking for you ever since,
And hoped I’d see you soon,
But every night when the club would close
You’d never show to take me around the room

You know I have cancer now and it won’t be long
That my dancing days are through. 
So will you dance with me once more tonight
And spin me around the room

So I held her close as we danced that night,
Around and around the room
Sad she wouldn’t be around too long,
But hoping it wouldn’t be too soon. 

Then nine months later she was buried
By those she loved, but not by me. 
I wanted to dance with her forever,
Not be in line to see her leave. 

Life is like a party sometime
Life is like a parade
Life is like a party sometime
But sometimes there is rain. 

Oh to be in her arms one more time
And spin her around the room. 

Spin her around the room one more time
spin her around the room,
Just to be in her arms one more time,
Spin her around the room.

Spin her around the room one more time
spin her around the room,
Just to be in her arms one more time,
Spin her around the room.

Life is like a party sometime
Life is like a parade
Life is like a party sometime
But sometimes there must be rain.

Spin Her Around The Room

地下数百メートルの研究所に住む博士は有名な気難しがりやさん。
時々人に優しくしようと心掛けますが裏目に出てばかり。
世の中に嫌気がさした博士は、自分を冷凍保存して未来の世界に生きる事にしました。

・・という曲です。
さぁ、心に広大な宇宙を創るのです！
そして探そう、生存可能圏！

The doctor who lives in a research institute several hundred meters underground is a famous grumpy man.
Sometimes I try to be kind to people, but it just backfires.
Disgusted by the world, he decided to freeze himself and live in the future world.

It's a song called ...
Now, create a vast universe in your heart!
And let's find it, Habitable Zone!

■歌詞
正しいと思っても　大体間違えている
相手を想った行動で　結局は傷つけてしまう
気が付いているよ　呆れられている事
もう誰も話しかけないで　消えてしまいたい

そして博士は　冷凍人間になった
忘れられる薬を　沢山配って
ネットのアカウントは　さっき削除した
そして冷凍保存のスイッチを入れて　ドアを固く締めた

地下数百メートルの研究所
タイマーは2000年後
次に目覚めた時はもう少し
住みやすい世界になっているといいな

誰かの言葉が　僕の胸をえぐる
肯定の反対　否定の反対の反対
もう何だかわからない　世界のルールが
正解を探す旅に　疲れてもう歩けない

そして不良品は　スクラップになった
くだらないゲームを　終わらせるために
目に焼き付けたのは　お気に入りの浜辺
未来の景色を　夢見ながら

最後のドライブ
国道を照らしながら
明日スクラップになる
悲しさはなかった

広大な宇宙の中の小さな地球の小さな人間同士のコミュニケーションさえ(ままならない)
博士が最後に残した言葉は「グッドラック。誰の事も傷つけたくは無かった。信じて・・」
もし同じように　君が悩むなら
心の中の　ハビタブルゾーン　探しに行けばいい


例えば博士は　冷凍人間になった
忘れられる薬を　沢山配って
ネットのアカウントは　すぐに削除して
そして冷凍保存のスイッチを入れて　ドアを固く締めた

地下数百メートルの研究所
心の中の隠れ場所
未来に命を繋いで希望を託すよ

夜明けのドライブ　君だけの孤独な旅
国道を照らし続けながら
今をスクラップにして
住みよい世界を探すんだ

■ Lyrics (Google Translate)
Even if I think it's correct, I'm generally wrong
Actions that think of the other person will eventually hurt you
I'm aware that I'm amazed
I want to disappear without talking to anyone anymore

And the doctor became a frozen human
Distribute a lot of forgotten medicine
I just deleted my internet account
Then I turned on the freezing storage and tightened the door.

Laboratory several hundred meters underground
The timer is 2000 years later
The next time I wake up, a little more
I hope the world is comfortable to live in

Someone's words gouge my chest
Opposition to affirmation Opposition to the opposite of denial
I don't know what the rules of the world are
I'm tired of traveling to find the correct answer and can't walk anymore

And the defective product was scrapped
To end the crap game
What I burned into my eyes was my favorite beach
While dreaming of the future scenery

Last drive
While illuminating the national highway
Will be scrapped tomorrow
There was no sadness

Even communication between small humans on the small earth in the vast universe (cannot be done well)
The last word he left behind was "Goodluck. I didn't want to hurt anyone. Believe me ..."
If you are worried in the same way
Just go find the habitable zone in your heart


For example, the doctor became a frozen human
Distribute a lot of forgotten medicine
Delete your online account immediately
Then I turned on the freezing storage and tightened the door.

Laboratory several hundred meters underground
A hiding place in my heart
I will connect my life to the future and entrust my hope

Drive at dawn, a lonely journey only for you
While continuing to illuminate the national highway
Scrap now
Find a comfortable world to live in

Live & Intimate records the live aspects of Elliana’s songs that you would experience listening to her perform in person; the unfiltered, unpolished, and “intimate” versions that fully capture the emotions behind the lyrics, conveying the meanings of her songs. Consisting of merely vocals and an acoustic guitar, the Live & Intimate collection shows the authentic Elliana through recordings from past performances; focusing on how her music sounded playing back on her voice recorder when they were played for the very first time.

This is the live version of Watch Out!

Lyrics: Elliana Stocks

Watch Out! (Live)

It's amazing what comes into your head as you sit by the beach. This has turned out to be a dark waltz.  Unashamedly folk dressed up to go out for the evening. Keeping it low and slow.

A pinch of Cohen, a sneer of Bowie and a smattering of Cave... lets see what the world thinks.




Ripples

The Sky is rippling, beneath a dark sea
It laps on a shore that’s just out of reach
The clouds are sinking, as the red sun floats free
The sky is rippling, as it drowns me.

You looked out to sea, to horizons fall
Avoiding my eyes as you explained it all,
Stepping past cliches, you cut straight to the bone
Why give away lies, when there’s your own truth to own

You told how it felt, to be you with me
Unchallenged, alone, watching those others be free
And the trinkets I buy you and the words I pledge
Just make you feel hollow so it must end.

The Sky is rippling, beneath a dark sea
It laps on a shore that’s just out of reach
The clouds are sinking, as the red sun floats free
The sky is rippling, as it drowns me.

Without Power to the turn words back 
Asked you not to say more
but you were the tide
and I, a fool on the shore.

You spoke of beginnings how they must lead to ends,
You told me of couples who still stayed friends
No tear in your eye, just the hint of a frown
As your words broke around me,
turned my world upside down.

The Sky is rippling, beneath a dark sea
It laps on a shore that’s just out of reach
The clouds are sinking, as the red sun floats free
The sky is rippling, as it drowns me.

Ripples

Something Memorable is Sean Doran's SoundCloud Name. 

Hi there. Go on.. push a play button and re-post something....while you read....

I've been on Soundcloud since Dec 2011 and it still amazes me how this community has helped me to improve my music and continue to write and play. It's the balance between the making music and the listening to the inspiration that the rest of you create, that makes it work. Thank you for sharing and thank you for listening.

I'm song writer and singer, continuing to learn and play, create and expand my capabilities. I'm very happy to write and record with others here on Soundcloud, I've enjoyed the collaborations that I've been involved with and they are where I learn the most. So, if you want a lyric or a vocal or fancy trying to collaborate on a complete track please let me know. 

My songs tend to be lyrics driven and my lyrics tend to come from ideas hinted at by words or phrases I hear or read. Once I'm writing I tend to start off in one direction and soon find the lyrics choosing their own. No matter how hard I push towards that pop, chirpy track.... I tend to come back something a little slower. Through I've been experimenting more lately. 

I truly believe everyone can write and should give it a go and so I'm happy to work with anyone.

I'm currently recording a combination of N2 pencil mics for acoustic guitar and a Aston Original mike for vocal. I have an M-Audio interface to my Mac and Logic X.

Born in Belfast, N. Ireland, but currently living and working from (Malaysia, India, Netherlands)North Norfolk in the UK.

I hope you'll like some of what you hear and that you'll leave a comment. Even if you don't like it, I'd love to hear why and what would make you listen again. Your comments make me better. 

शुभ कामनाएँ

Sean
