Voice of the nation

Something a little different for me. I don't offer many covers.
I used to gig with Martin and Fiona,we had some great times and played well together.
A while back we recorded this Randy Newman song,just because it's a lovely piece. Hope you enjoy.

Feels Like Home

My latest song, Empire, was born from the haunting Dunkirk beach scene—young soldiers lined up in silence under the blazing sun, waiting. No speeches, no music—just the weight of dread. Their stillness felt like bravery. Above, RAF pilots fought unseen, alone in the sky, risking everything for those below. The song emerged as a sound collage, built from simple chords and evolving textures that captured the quiet courage and tension I felt. It’s a sonic reflection of that liminal space—between fear and hope, action and stillness.

Traurigkeit in der Menschheit

I am anything but a pessimist. I am not depressed either. However, the world is in such a sad state that, when I look for song lyric topics, I can hardly find anything positive or fun. Instead of singing, you just want to cry. Or scream.

I wrote the following song in memory of the immeasurable pain and incredible will to survive of the Ukrainian people – neither as a lament nor as a protest song, just as an almost normal love song.

Although I don't know the basics of the Ukrainian language, I also decided to write this Ukrainian version too with a customized arrangement and the help of DeepL because this language sounds so extra beautiful – one special of so many diamonds of Europe's cultural diversity.

Lyrics translation by DeepL:

Will I ever see you again?
Just once more?
Wandering through worlds, spaces and dreams.
No matter where, no matter when.

Losing all time forever
as if we were music.
Only us and nothing else anymore.
As if there were no war.

Coming together like two halves of a whole.
Barely able to breathe with happiness,
Your heart beating as loudly as mine.
In this moment.

Gazing at you silently as you sleep so beautifully.
So indescribably close,
I've never seen anything more beautiful.
And it was all true.

Why can't this continue?
Why are you a ghost?
Will I ever see you again,
Before it tears me apart?

Will I ever see you again,
Before it tears me apart?

Чи побачу я тебе ще колись? (Werd ich dich jemals wiedersehen?)

(no genAI involved - my voice and VST instruments)
At 55 years old, I am a grandfather and am rediscovering the magic of a newborn baby. When we see this innocence and fragility, we retrieve in each of us that simple but wonderful thing that is humanity.
(traduit plus bas)

It's not another morning
Not anymore
So deep inside me
I'm only starting to understand
Like never before
  
When living is so real
Your tiny hands are dreaming
And my heart is healing
My baby I can feel
Your soul, the meaning
A world arising  

My love,my son
Born of your ancestors
Now you're the sun, I'm your universe
You'll find me always there

I never knew the silence
Could speak so loud
You breathe, I listen
The world now slows just to hear from you
And time itself bows down

When living is so real
Your tiny hands are dreaming
And my heart is healing
Through my chest I can feel
Your soul, the meaning
A world arising

When living is so real
Your smile becomes the meaning
And hope  is softly ringing
My baby, you reveal
These beautiful things
That you imagine

When living is so real
Your tiny hands are dreaming
And my heart is healing
Through my chest I can feel
Your soul, the meaning
A world arising

When living is so real
I'm dreaming
I'm healing
When living is so real
I see the meaning
The world's arising
----
Ce n'est pas un matin comme les autres
Plus maintenant
Au plus profond de moi
Je commence seulement à comprendre
Comme jamais auparavant
  
Quand la vie est si réelle
Tes petites mains rêvent
Et mon cœur guérit
Mon bébé, je peux sentir
Ton âme, le sens
Un monde qui naît

Mon amour, mon fils
Né de tes ancêtres
Maintenant, tu es le soleil, je suis ton univers
Tu me trouveras toujours là

Je ne savais pas que le silence
Pouvait parler si fort
Tu respires, j'écoute
Le monde ralentit maintenant juste pour t'entendre
Et le temps lui-même s'incline

Quand la vie est si réelle
Tes petites mains rêvent
Et mon cœur guérit
À travers ma poitrine, je peux sentir
Ton âme, le sens
Un monde qui naît
 
Quand la vie est si réelle
Ton sourire devient le sens
Et l'espoir  sonne doucement
Mon bébé, tu révèles
Ces belles choses
Que tu imagines

Quand la vie est si réelle
Tes petites mains rêvent
Et mon cœur guérit
À travers ma poitrine, je peux sentir
Ton âme, le sens
Un monde qui naît

Quand la vie est si réelle
Je rêve
Je guéris
Quand la vie est si réelle
Je vois le sens
Le monde qui naît

When living is so real

Dreams Of Long Ago

played about with this a lot - again shifted to minor key helped with the spooky vibe - tweaked the words here and there - boom - murder ballad Enjoy 

Well, he walked up to me and he asked me if I wanted to dance
He looked kind of strange  I was lonely so I thought take a chance
When we danced, he held me tight
when he walked me home that night
All the stars were shining bright and then he kissed me
Each time I saw him, he couldn’t wait to see me again
I started to see he thought that I was more than a friend
I didn't know just what to do
When he whispered, "I love you"
I just whispered I love you too, and then he kissed me
He kissed me in a way like he’d never been kissed before
He kissed me in a way like he wanted to eat my soul 
He kept me filled with wine so I gave him all the love that I had
one day, he took me home to meet his mom and hisdad 
As we stood at the grave side 
He told me I would be his bride 
He wiped the last tear from my eye and then he kissed me
Then he told me i was his bride
Forever lie right by his side
He looked so happy as he watched me die
then he kissed me
then he kissed me
then he kissed me

then he kissed me (Crystals cover)

LYRICS:



(Verse 1)
Sun come up again today
Same old trouble in the way
My bones ache my spirit low
Where the good times where they go

(Pre-chorus)
Hear a whisper on the breeze
Something bout a magic ease

[Chorus]
Bethesda Pool oh Bethesda Pool
Washes away the mean and cruel
Bethesda Pool just dip your toe
Watch the bad stuff up and go

(Verse 2)
Walkin slow down to the water
Feelin like a lost old daughter
See the light dance on the green
Best darn sight I ever seen

(Pre-chorus)
Take a breath let out a sigh
No more tears just clear blue sky

(Chorus)
Bethesda Pool oh Bethesda Pool
Washes away the mean and cruel
Bethesda Pool just dip your toe
Watch the bad stuff up and go
