I’ve Always Got A Home Inside Your Heart
Rob Simbeck, Frank Michels, and Sharon Spivey

Well, I throw my coat across the chair like I’d do if I was home
It still looks like every motel from here to Maine
So I take your picture from my suitcase
and I don’t feel so all alone
Your smile is like a bright spot in the rain

Chorus:
And, If I didn’t have your love, I’d go crazy
But I know that when the lonely feelings start
That no matter where I am your love can save me
‘Cause I’ve always got a home inside your heart

When the miles I have to travel start to take their toll on me
Your love is all I need to pull me through
Even when it seems these highways 
Are gonna stretch out endlessly
Babe, they always lead me home to you

Chorus:
If I didn’t have your love, I’d go crazy
But I know that when the lonely feelings start
That no matter where I am your love can save me
‘Cause I’ve always got a home inside your heart

Chorus:
If I didn’t have your love, I’d go crazy
But I know that when the lonely feelings start
That no matter where I am your love can save me
‘Cause I’ve always got a home inside your heart

Verse 1

Down in Deerfield where the apple trees grow,

Clarkdale Fruit Farms has a story to show.

Lori Holmes Clark with a vision so clear,

Brings the orchard's heart for everyone to hear.

Chorus

Walk the fields, hear the tales unfolding,

Voices of the farm, both young and old.

From the seeds of the past to the fruits we see,

Clarkdale's calling, come roam with me.

Verse 2

Ninety minutes through a sound pool so wide,

Pauses in the breeze where the memories reside.

Tom Clark speaks of trees his granddad did plant,

Back in nineteen-twenty, when the farm's dream began.

Chorus

Walk the fields, hear the tales unfolding,

Voices of the farm, both young and old.

From the seeds of the past to the fruits we see,

Clarkdale's calling, come roam with me.

Verse 3

Ben Clark shares the grafting, the fencing, the fight,

Against deer and disease, keeping crops growing right.

Emerson, just eleven, sees life in a drop,

Every ant, every apple, with a role that won't stop.

Bridge

Poems weave through the air, with a whimsical spark,

Local voices like Delmhorst light the path in the dark.

Under archways and fairy homes, nature's magic is near,

A tapestry of stories for the heart to revere.

Chorus

Walk the fields, hear the tales unfolding,

Voices of the farm, both young and old.

From the seeds of the past to the fruits we see,

Clarkdale's calling, come roam with me.

Verse 4

Hailstorms and winds, Ben ties to the changing skies,

While fairy houses peek where the old apple tree lies.

Slow down, take a breath, let the orchard's truth sing,

Download the app, let the stories take wing.

Chorus

Walk the fields, hear the tales unfolding,

Voices of the farm, both young and old.

From the seeds of the past to the fruits we see,

Clarkdale's calling, come roam with me.

Clarkdale’s Calling

Jackson Pollock stymied arts fans for decades as they tried to figure out what source of color was he using, until now. Wrote a song about it called "Manganese Blue". 

Manganese Blue

DeepSeek shocked the AI world when it came out with an open source AI that was faster, smaller and better than anything in the US.  I wrote a song about it called "DeepSeek's Mystique" in the Cybernetic Fusion™ genre: Ancestral Chinese music  with electronic sound to create a future-born tradition. 

(Verse 1)
In the labs of China, a spark ignites,
DeepSeek rises, cutting through the nights.
Open source code, free for all to see,
Faster than the wind, smaller than a key.
Beats the giants from across the sea,
US models left in dust, can't you see?
From DeepSeek AI, they made the leap,
A revolution in the code we keep.
(Chorus)
Oh, DeepSeek's mystique, it's shaking the ground,
Smarter and sleeker, the best around.
No more waiting, no heavy chains,
Open and bold, breaking the chains.
DeepSeek's mystique, the AI world's in awe,
From East to West, it's changing the law.
Faster, smaller, better than before,
DeepSeek's here, forevermore!
(Verse 2)
Nature's pages tell the tale so grand,
Article drops on this wonderland.
Trained on secrets, efficient and true,
Outperforms the best that the Yanks pursue.
No black box secrets, share it wide,
Democratizing dreams, with open pride.
Speed like lightning, size so lean,
The future's calling, if you know what I mean.
(Bridge)
Whispers in the wind, from Beijing to the Bay,
AI's new king, leading the way.
Shocked the suits in Silicon's glow,
DeepSeek's magic, stealing the show.
No more moats, no closed-door games,
Open source fire, igniting the flames.
(Chorus)
Oh, DeepSeek's mystique, it's shaking the ground,
Smarter and sleeker, the best around.
No more waiting, no heavy chains,
Open and bold, breaking the chains.
DeepSeek's mystique, the AI world's in awe,
From East to West, it's changing the law.
Faster, smaller, better than before,
DeepSeek's here, forevermore!
(Outro)
So raise a glass to the underdog's win,
DeepSeek's mystique, let the new era begin.
In the code we trust, in the open we thrive,
DeepSeek's alive, keeping hope alive.



DeepSeek's Mystique

The Big E is western MA's annual fall festival and fair. There's something for everybody there: rides, a petting zoo, competitions, music and the Avenue of States, paying homage to the best of six states!  I wrote a song about it called "Ode to the Big E"

Ode to the Big E
(Verse 1 - Gate 1 Welcome)
Rollin' into West Springfield, where the fall leaves turn gold,
The Big E's callin' your name, with stories yet untold.
Rides twistin' high in the sky, petting zoo with fuzzy friends,
Competitions fierce and fun, where the laughter never ends.
Music strummin' through the night, under harvest moon so bright,
But save your steps for the Avenue, where New England's heart takes flight!

(Chorus)
Oh, Avenue of States, you're a six-state symphony,
Standin' on foreign soil, but feelin' right at home, you see.
From the Granite to the Ocean, Nutmeg spice to Maple sweet,
Big E's got the best of 'em all, dancin' down that fairground street!
Clam chowder steamin', potatoes loaded high,
Whoopie pies and lobster rolls-raise a glass, let's touch the sky!
Big E, oh Big E, you're our autumn dream come true,
Till September's end, we'll feast on you!

(Verse 2 - The State Stroll)
First up New Hampshire, quiet charm in wooden weave,
Spinnin' yarns and mac 'n' cheese, milk bottles you believe.
Then Connecticut's smoky hug, tobacco leaves hangin' low,
Wine slushies cool your whistle, Danny's spuds steal the show.

Vermont's flannel kingdom calls, with Cabot wheels and Ben & Jerry's scoop,
Maple drippin' everywhere, in every candy loop.
Maine's the line you'll wait for, that buttery baked delight,
Salmon sticks for the healthy soul, whoopies under lantern light.

(Chorus)
Oh, Avenue of States, you're a six-state symphony,
Standin' on foreign soil, but feelin' right at home, you see.
From the Granite to the Ocean, Nutmeg spice to Maple sweet,
Big E's got the best of 'em all, dancin' down that fairground street!
Clam chowder steamin', potatoes loaded high,
Whoopie pies and lobster rolls-raise a glass, let's touch the sky!
Big E, oh Big E, you're our autumn dream come true,
Till September's end, we'll feast on you!

(Verse 3 - Mass to RI Finale)
Massachusetts roars with Boston pride, sports walls that make you cheer,
Pilgrim sandwiches and chowder bowls, Sniffs candles draw you near.
Rhode Island's lemon zing, Del's slush in every hand,
Stuffies stuffed with seaside soul, jack-o-lanterns grand.

But wait-don't stop at six, 'cause the whole country's here to play,
Avenue of all fifty, in one epic fairground day!

(Bridge - The Grand Illusion)
Step inside those statehouse doors, on deeded ground so true,
You're in Maine, then Mass in a blink, what a whimsical view.
From crafts to chowder, culture's call, it's New England's finest hour,
Big E binds us all together, with a fairground super power.

(Final Chorus - Fade Out with Cheers)
Oh, Avenue of States, you're our six-state symphony,
(Whole world's waitin' too, from sea to shinin' sea!)
From the Granite to the Ocean, Nutmeg spice to Maple sweet,
Big E's got the best of everywhere, on that magical street!
Clam chowder steamin', potatoes loaded high,
Whoopie pies and lobster rolls-don't say goodbye!
Big E, oh Big E, you're our forever fall delight,
Come back next year, we'll carnival all night!

(Outro - Spoken Sing-Along)
So grab your ticket, hit the gate, let the Big E set you free...
Western Mass magic, for you and me. Yee-haw!

Ode to the Big E

Why deal with bridges, traffic, rotaries and road rage when you can just kick your feet up and enjoy a 90-minute scenic boat ride? The Ferry from Boston to Cape Cod is a dream come true.  I wrote a song about it called "Whitecaps & Skylines".

(Verse 1)
Hop aboard at Long Wharf, leave the city behind,
Boston's skyline sparkles, with the sea intertwined.
Ninety minutes of freedom, on the waves we glide,
To Provincetown's embrace, with the ocean as our guide.

(Pre-Chorus)
No bridges, no traffic, no rotary's spin,
Just the salt in the air and the breeze on my skin.

(Chorus)
Whitecaps and skylines, we're sailin' away,
From Boston to the Cape, where the heart wants to stay.
With the harbor islands callin', and the open deck sway,
Whitecaps and skylines, it's a ferry kind of day.

(Verse 2)
MacMillan Pier's waitin', where the world slows down,
Commercial Street's alive with that Provincetown sound.
No car, just my feet, through the shops and the sun,
In this walkable haven, every moment's fun.

(Pre-Chorus)
Grab a drink at the bar, feel the cool ocean spray,
Through the windows, the world's just a daydream away.

(Chorus)
Whitecaps and skylines, we're sailin' away,
From Boston to the Cape, where the heart wants to stay.
With the harbor islands callin', and the open deck sway,
Whitecaps and skylines, it's a ferry kind of day.

(Bridge)
LGBTQ+ pride, in August it shines,
Carnival's colors paint the Cape's vibrant lines.
From the upper deck's wind to the cozy seats below,
This journey's a story that'll spark and glow.

(Chorus)
Whitecaps and skylines, we're sailin' away,
From Boston to the Cape, where the heart wants to stay.
With the harbor islands callin', and the open deck sway,
Whitecaps and skylines, it's a ferry kind of day.

(Outro)
So leave the road rage, let the traffic subside,
Take the ferry to freedom, on this scenic ride.
Whitecaps and skylines, they're callin' my name,
From Boston to Provincetown, I'll never be the same.

Whitecaps & Skylines

Scientists grow mini-brains in lab to unlock energy-efficient artificial intelligence
Tiny brain models could build artificial intelligence that works faster and wastes less power.  I wrote a song about it called "Tiny Brains" in Cybernetic Fusion™ style: old-world traditions carried into new sonic environments, layered with ideas drawn from science, philosophy, and mathematics.

[Verse 1]
In a lab where the future's born,
Tiny brains, they're taking form.
Grown from cells, so small, so bright,
Holding secrets of the mind's light.
Neurons dance in a 3D maze,
Lighting up in a thousand ways.
With a spark, they start to sing,
A revolution's blossoming.
[Chorus]
Oh, tiny brains, you're the key,
Unlocking AI's mystery.
Faster, smarter, saving power,
You're the future's brightest hour.
From the lab to the world outside,
Tiny brains, you're our guide.
With every pulse, you show the way,
For a smarter, greener day.
[Verse 2]
Scaffolds built with a careful hand,
Neurons placed where the cortex stands.
Light pulses flash, the cells reply,
Mimicking thoughts beneath the sky.
Motion, speed, they learn it all,
Like self-driving cars that never fall.
A spark of code, a living dream,
Blending life with the machine.
[Chorus]
Oh, tiny brains, you're the key,
Unlocking AI's mystery.
Faster, smarter, saving power,
You're the future's brightest hour.
From the lab to the world outside,
Tiny brains, you're our guide.
With every pulse, you show the way,
For a smarter, greener day.
[Bridge]
No consciousness, just simple fire,
A network built to inspire.
Bioengineering, code, and care,
A multidisciplinary affair.
Two million strong, the grant's alive,
Watch these tiny brains thrive.
From Lehigh's halls to the world's embrace,
They'll change the tech in every space.
[Chorus]
Oh, tiny brains, you're the key,
Unlocking AI's mystery.
Faster, smarter, saving power,
You're the future's brightest hour.
From the lab to the world outside,
Tiny brains, you're our guide.
With every pulse, you show the way,
For a smarter, greener day.
[Outro]
Tiny brains, so small, so wise,
Lighting up the future's skies.
With every neuron, every spark,
You're the flame that lights the dark.
Oh, tiny brains, lead us on,
Till the dawn of a brand-new song.

Recently I was asked to write a soft, emotional Chinese pop ballad in the style of Mao Buyi.  Not familiar with the singer myself, I listened to a few of his top songs to get a sense of the structure.  Got some help from my wife who is fluent in Mandarin for the lyrics, and put this together.  Hope you like it.

[Verse 1]
 月光轻轻落在老街的墙
 风吹过熟悉的巷口响
 你的影子像从前一样
 在我心里慢慢晃

[Pre-Chorus]
 我走过每一个熟悉的路口
 思念像雨，落在夜里慢慢流

[Chorus]
 月光下的街，我和你没说的话
 轻轻飘在风里，好像从未离开过
 月光下的街，静静看你笑
 心里的温柔，就这样慢慢找

[Refrain / Hook]
 月光下的街，月光下的街
 我还记得那晚我们并肩走
 月光下的街，月光下的街
 时间都慢了，你的影子长留
