oh wow, what a crazy good idea, and excellently realized creation! I can barely the first 2 minutes of the original piano thing and you've concocted this whole other iteration. top notch stuff again good sir!

this kind of reminds me of something Tony Banks might have composed (professed Genesis fan here)

What a great idea John! I love the mix of different styles😄.

Here the music is very prog... nice sound effects and atmosphere! 👍🔝👏👏

Dark and theatrical, this deserves a full stage production. Your voice is powerful and emotive and the synths add a lot of techno goth. Great work again John, your output is impressively diverse.

super duper quality , nice vision and multi direction music piece john

IT'S ALL THE COIN YOU'VE GOT
AND ALL THE LOVING IN ONE HAND
THERE'S A CHANCE TO TAKE THE LOT
UNTILL YOU FIND THE KEY, IT TURNS TO SAND

IF I COULD UNFOLD THIS MYSTERY
THE OLD MAN SAID NOTHING COMES FOR FREE
IT COULD TAKE YOU LIFE, WITH WHAT YOU CHOOSE
THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO

WHAT'S IN YOU

SOMEDAY YOU'LL WIN A TRICK IN A HAT
YOU BETTER WISH REEL HARD, IN ONE HAND
IS ALL THE TRUTH TO MUCH
MAY'BE  IT'S ALL, IN TWO HANDS

I GUESS YOU'LL NEVER KNOW WHAT IS TRUE
YOU'VE LOST THE BIGGEST PART OF YOU
IT COULD TAKE YOUR LIFE, WITH WHAT YOU CHOOSE
THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO

WHAT'S IN YOU

It’s a beautiful mess- this dreaming up life
We’re falling like stars- into each other’s sky’s
Everybody’s gotta have- a reason to shine
Who knows maybe yours- is just like mine

We all try to find reasons why
For the seasons and our fates
And how they intertwine with lines we write in story’s we create 
And I couldn’t find a better friend to roll on down the line….
A great life’s a long goodbye

Life aint no test, pass or fail
So many times we fly off the rail
And sometimes it aint easy, but we aint wasting our lives
Because if we can stick together, it’ll be alright -Alright Yeah
Let loving in!

We all try find the reasons why
For the seasons and our fates
And how they intertwine with lines we write in the story’s we create 
And I couldn’t find a better friend to roll on down the line….
A great life’s a long goodbye

It’s a beautiful mess
It’s a crazy damn life
We’re all stars
In someone else’s sky

We all try find reasons why
For the seasons and our fates
And how they intertwine with lines we write in the story’s we create 
And I couldn’t find a better friend to roll on down the line, Yeah-yeah, we’re gonna rock it-rock it, rock and roll it

We’ll never say goodbye

A great life’s a long goodbye
A great life’s a long goodbye
A great life’s a long goodbye
A great life’s a long
A great life’s a long
Goodbye

A Great Life's A Long Goodbye

Had a little dry spell, hopefully it's over now. In the span of 24 hours I have alternated between hating and loving this track about 400 times...

If you need a helping hand
Someone who understands
Don’t shed a tear, I’m right here

If you need a dollar bill
Or have a little time to kill
Baby you know I will
I’m right here

When you’re down and blue
And you need two big strong arms to pull you through
Hold on tight, that’s what i’ll do

These are more than just words I say
I’m here for you night and day
Have no fear I'm right here

When the road is long
And you need someone to beside you, I’ll come along
Anywhere with you, is the place where I belong

These are more than just words I say
I’m here for you every day
Have no fear I'm right here
Have no fear I'm right here
Let me make this clear

I'm Right Here

Primarily a fun song that takes a bit of humor from the experience of a guy who tried so hard to be a good husband, a good guy, but ultimately loses out. Bemoans all the sacrifices he made, yet he could never please his wife.   

My special thanks to Nat Daniels for stepping in to add some critical new pieces to my old recording, including some great production work!

Lyrics:
You made my mind up, you turned my head around
You said my time was up, it’s time to settle down
You bought your wedding gown

I tried to follow, I thought I loved you so
So much to swallow, you said I had to grow
I tried it even though...

I didn’t think that I was, all that bad a guy but,
I listened to your kissin’ girl
I just killed myself to go on living

Now you want to, pick up with someone new
Now that I blew, my soul away for you
The things you put me through

You got your lawyer, to take my house from me
Last time I saw ya, you had my LTD
You wouldn’t stop for me

I didn’t think that I was, all that bad a guy but,
I listened to your kissin’ girl
I just killed myself to go on living

You got my toaster, you got my bowlin’ night
You weren’t supposed to, just disappear from sight
It just isn’t right

You got my hair changed, you made me chew my food
You made me sleep strange, just cause it felt so good
I gave you all I could

I didn’t think that I was, all that bad a guy but,
I listened to your kissin’ girl
I just killed myself to go on living
Just to go on living, just to go on living, just to go on living
I gave you all I could

(Rap section)
Didn’t think, didn’t think now
Never thought, I never ever thought how
Didn’t think that I could live without you
Everything about me was about you
I can tell I’m living by myself to go on living

I Gave You All I Could

Moonlight
Night fell without its moonlight setting up an even chance
There’s a contract to be honoured. Reputation to enhance
For all intents  you’re  only there to watch the world go by
Checking out each stranger trying not to catch their eye
You like the scent of danger you like the smell of fear
The churning in your stomach when the prey getting near
You feel your heart is pounding  as the blood begins to flow
But all that really matters is the target and the blow

There’s no moonlight in the city and there’s  darkness in the night
Now with the daylight  fading you’ll be hiding from the light
You were told the mark is coming but they’ve misled you in the past
But you’re prepared for darkness as long as it may last 
As the minutes become hours and  the hours become the past

You  wouldn’t do this In the daylight with so many prying eyes
They would catch your careful glances and see through your disguise
But darkness just like moonlight always lies.

Trying not to look suspicious you’ll be looking at your phone
Just like any other man who finds himself alone
But you’ll be very careful  keeping one eye in the street
And focus your attention on the man you’re  here to greet

And he’s coming round the corner, you know you’ve got your man
He’s both careful and attentive but that doesn’t change your plan 
You watch him very closely watching out for signs of fear
Making sure that in the darkness that there’s no one coming near
He’s passes you so close that you can almost touch his face
But you let him pass and follow him towards a quieter place
You sense his pace has quickened, as if he senses something wrong
Maybe your imagination is keeping motivation strong
He turns a final corner and both of you now know
That there’s no more road to travel and there’s nowhere, nowhere else to go

You like the scent of danger you like the smell of fear
The churning in your stomach when the prey getting near
You feel your heart is pounding  as the blood begins to flow
But all that really matters is the target and the blow

There’s no moonlight in the city and there’s  darkness in the night
And now the light has faded you’ll be hiding from the light
To vanish in the darkness as a felon on the run
Laying low until the next time now the covenant is done

When I See You
----------------

When i see you
I could almost puke
When I see you
A strange shudder goes through and through
When I See You
My head turns bloodred
While the world shifts in two halves
And none of them would last
Without the other one…

When i see you
And that happens now and then again
It’s too uneasy to explain
My knees tremble
My mouth is all dry
My tongue is paralyzed
I break out in a sweat
I have to look at the ground
My breathing gallops
And then my heart that pounds
And am all agitated
I avoid all pictures of you
Try not to think about it too much
Close my inner eye, too…

When i see you
And that happens now and then again
Oh, it’s so uneasy to explain
My knees tremble
My mouth is all dry
My tongue is paralyzed
I break out in a sweat
I have to look on the ground
My breathing gallops
And then my heart that pounds… ahh…

solo

When i see you
You never talk to me
No reaction you show
Just stand somewhere off silently,
Peripheral,
In the background
Wthout a sound
How can I see what is not there ?
How can I remind what never took place ?
How can I feel that i was close to you,
Even if that was unreal, ?
And if I’d see you
As a monster,
As a hypocrate,
As a drama queen ?
And if i’d see you
As a mirror image ?
As a saviour ?
As a lover … ?

When I see you
Oh, when i see you
It’s so uneasy to explain
It’s too uneasy to explain…
When do I see you ?
When will i see you ?
When will i see you again ?

When I See You

I was going through the Tony Harris collection and came across this little gem he'd written years ago , so I asked him if I could have a go at a complete revamp , he said yes and this is the result , I hope you like it as much as I do ! On the 22nd is a super song with Gaz and Nat , and on the 1st of September is my first outing with fantastic German orchestral composer Axel Menningen , I'm doing a duet with R and B singer Kim . Working on a new song with Axel and Charlotte at the moment , as usual it's all go ! Thank you so much for listening !

I have tried to optimise this old song.

Lyrics:
Winter in the North

The winter has arrived to us and its cold outside
and the sky turns into blue - and we can see small creatures  
and they are dancing around the big tree
and they are dancing around the big tree

The fields in the north are white and the day is bright
which makes life much better for - all the folks that live here 
and they are dancing around the big tree
and they are dancing around the big tree

The atmosphere in the north is cool and the arctic fox
have got fur that shines white - and they are bouncing in the snow
cause they are dancing around the big tree
cause they are dancing around the big tree

The people in the north they care for the welfare of 
reindeers grazing on the mountains - they must look up for the wolverine
and they are dancing around the big tree
and they are dancing around the big tree

A Divergent World

'facetious feces'

Insecure.
Sins a blur
when you're livin'
in the fast lane.
Feel no pain,
until you come 
crashing down.
Lasting frowns
seem to stick around 
endlessly. 
No retreat,
until you get
high again.
Bliss.
Heaven.
The cycle it
never ends.
Repeat. 
Repent.
Be careful or
you'll be dead.
Catchin' zeds,
stuck in a bed 
permanently. 
Germinate seeds
of love within yourself. 

Crashing down.
Masking frowns
until I get high again.
Will it end?
Or is this just life?

facetious feces

Lyrics: 
never meant for you to always have your way
I just wanted us to somehow find our way
But in the journey, I slowly started to fade
The man you thought you wanted I became

and now, that I’ve awakened
There’s this heart-breaking 
Divide between our reality 
And what we feel inside 

IM NOT THE MAN OF YOUR DREAMS
YOU MAY NEVER REALLY LOVE ME 
ALWAYS WANTING PRINCE CHARMING
AND TO ME THAT’S SO ALARMING
BECAUSE HE DOES NOT EXIST
HE DOES NOT EXIST

I never meant for us to crumble away
I just wanted us to live for today
But in the journey, we started to fade
Loving arms turned into hateful blades

and now, that I’ve awakened
There’s this heart-breaking 
Divide between our reality 
And what we feel inside 

IM NOT THE MAN OF YOUR DREAMS
YOU MAY NEVER REALLY LOVE ME 
ALWAYS WANTING PRINCE CHARMING
AND TO ME THAT’S SO ALARMING
BECAUSE HE DOES NOT EXIST
HE DOES NOT EXIST

Prince Charming Does Not Exist

"THOUGHTS"
Free in my mind and soul, earned through all my living,
Every sacred message, has a different meaning,
Have i ever thought, what it is just giving,
Every little soul, has a great beginning.
Take it all down fellow, to the point you deal,
Cards that never stop, our brains from what to feel,
Is it thought just travels, or our feelings throttle,
Maybe all together, make us live as a whole.
Fantasy created, fantasy itself,
Thought just gives a feeling, killing death on breath,
Combination ended, realistic zones,
We live through one message, passing through our bones.
Does this means we are bonded, taking down a trip,
Living as created, things don't ever flip,
Everything was always, as has always been,
Get the point geezer, get the light of sin.
My mind travels, my thought disappears,
I live in agony, my heart is full of tears,
My soul evaporates, as it lives in nowhere,
My brain dissolves, i can't believe i am lower.
Open now your eyes, the deal wants your heart,
Maybe what we are made of, is with our brains attached,
Let your soul come out, let your soul see,
Maybe soul and body, spirit and you' re free.
Live with spirit fellow, the light has been reborn,
Let your first thought travel, to your eternal soul,
Maybe what we are, is given all around,
Spin it in your heart, live a second round.
Lyrics by RAGIAS CHRISTOS
Enjoy the trip!!
