„Gemeinsam stark“ ist ein deutschsprachiger Popsong über Fußball und Miteinander. Auf dem Platz zählen nicht Medaillen, sondern Menschen. Aus einem kleinen Spiel zwischen Vater und Sohn wächst mit jeder Strophe ein Team: Aus zwei werden acht, aus Spiel wird Begegnung. 

Musikalisch verbindet der Song warme Akustikgitarren, leichten Pop-Groove und eine mitsingbare Hook. Ohne künstliches Pathos erzählt Julivox von Gemeinschaft und vom Wert, füreinander da zu sein.

Gemeinsam stark

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosopher and novelist Ayn Rand's book The Virtue of Selfishness, in particular the chapter "The Objectivist Ethics"

This focuses specifically on her discussion of how love and friendship are properly understood selfish or self-centered relations to other people

Ayn Rand, The Virtue of Selfishness - Love and Friendship as Selfish - Sadler's Lectures

If you give it some honest thought, you will find that most relationships end for any numbere of reasons. Lovers tend to come and go. But true friends tend to be enduring relationships.

Lyrics:
If I can’t be your lover, let me be your friend.
If I can’t hold you in my arms, let me hold your hand.
If I can’t kiss your sweet lips, let me see you smile.
If I can’t be your lover, let me be your friend.
    If you shut me out completely, it’s certain that I’ll cry. 
    My feelings will wilt and wither all my colors, they will fade,
    I’ll stumble through each every grey and dreary day.
    If I can’t be your lover, let me be your friend.
If I can’t be your lover, let me be your friend.
If I can’t lay beside you, let me look into your eyes.
If I can’t spend my life with you, just give me a little time.
If I can’t be your lover, let me be your friend.
    If you shut me out completely, .....
God knows I wouldn’t hurt you, you should know it too.
God knows I love you, you should know it too.
God knows how I love you, you should know it too.
If I can’t be your lover, let me be your friend.
If I can’t hold you in my arms, let me hold your hand.
If I can’t kiss your sweet lips, let me see you smile.
If I can’t be your lover, let me be your friend.
If I can’t be your lover, let me be your friend.
If I can’t be your lover, let me be your friend.

If I Can't is the eighth track of my CD, Give Away, recorded in the mid '90s. The extraordinarily talented, and sadly late Linda Waterfall was my producer, vocal arranger and artistic contributor. 


08 If I Can't

Happy Thanksgiving! This year, one of the things I am thankful for are my friends who have supported me throughout the years and have helped me become the person I am today. Without them, I don't think I would have been as happy in my life as I am right now. Enjoy the holiday season!

My Friend

„Ein Tag von morgen“ zeigt
deinen zukünftigen Alltag —
nicht als Wunsch,
sondern als mögliche Realität.

Der Song erzählt davon,
wie dein Leben aussehen kann,
wenn dein Herz führt
und dein Kopf folgen darf:
Frühstück ohne Eile
Spaziergänge ohne Flucht
Lächeln ohne Grund
Ruhe ohne Angst
Nähe ohne Streit

Entscheidungen mit Konsequenz
Erinnerungen, die bleiben
ein Sonnenuntergang, der nicht schmerzt
„Ein Tag von morgen“ ist nicht laut,
nicht kitschig —
sondern warm, ehrlich und echt.

Ein Film deiner Zukunft.

Wenn ich mich klein fühle

Sanctuary can be a place, a state of mind, a moment by yourself , a walk in the forest , wherever you find Sanctuary it is a very special place. In this song i am asking my friend to let me be their sanctuary a friend to be there when you need me. I hope you find Sanctuary in your life and i pray that at this Christmas the world may find sanctuary from War and pain. 

Written, performed etc. John Mc Farlane Nov 2025

Sanctuary 
When you’re down and feeling lonely,
When you’re hurt and you’re in pain.
When your life is dark and empty,
And your tears fall like the rain,

Just call for me I’ll find you.
And if you fall, I’ll catch you,
I’ll be you’re parachute I’ll  guide you home ,
You know I’ll never judge you,
I’ll be a Lighthouse for you,
I’ll guide you from the rocks and protect you from the Storms 

Chorus 
I’ll be your Sanctuary,
When everything around you is going wrong 
I’ll be your Sanctuary 
When you’re hurt and needing someone strong 

And if you fall, I’ll catch you 
You know ill never judge 
You know I’m always there  for you 
A friend you can rely on 
A shoulder you can cry on
A Rock that you can build your life upon.

Ich schreibe, was ich denke, fühle und erlebe. Schreiben hilft mir, Erinnerungen einzuordnen und ihnen Klarheit zu geben. Wenn Gefühle eine Melodie bekommen, entsteht etwas Wunderbares – eine Botschaft, die direkt ins Herz geht.

Für mich ist es ein Ausgleich, ein Stück Selbsttherapie. Die Texte sind ehrlich und frisch aus dem Herzen. Und wenn ich damit jemanden berühre, der genauso fühlt wie ich, freut es mich umso mehr.

Da ich selbst nicht gut singen kann, nutze ich KI für die Melodie und die Stimme. Ich bin dankbar für diese Möglichkeit, meinen Gefühlen Ausdruck zu verleihen.

Viel Freude beim Hören 🥰

Gruß, Marco Memory

I write what I think, feel, and experience. Writing helps me sort out memories and bring them clarity. When feelings find a melody, something wonderful is created – a message that speaks straight to the heart.

For me, it’s a balance, a bit of self-therapy. The lyrics are honest and straight from the heart. And if they touch someone who feels the same way I do, it makes me even happier.

Since I can’t sing well myself, I use AI for the melody and voice. I’m grateful for this opportunity to give my feelings a voice.

Enjoy listening 🥰

Best, Marco Memory

Peter Glass is a singer/songwriter. His writing is rather eclectic, but alt-Folk probably best describes his genre.

Hello! I post songs I make from GarageBand or BandLab. Have a good day! :D

Julivox ist ein eigenständiges Musikprojekt, das Stimme, Songwriting und künstlerische Vision bündelt. Handgemachte Ideen treffen auf moderne Produktionsmethoden: ein kreativer Trialog zwischen Mensch, Maschine und Melodie. 

Aus einem Schülerreferat entstand der erste gemeinsame Song. Seither folgt kein Track einer Schablone. Julivox mischt Pop-Grooves, Rock-Elemente und fein gearbeitete Klangdetails zu eingängigen Stücken. Ein generationenübergreifendes Projekt, das Optimismus ausstrahlt und von Spielfreude und Neugier lebt.

Hi, My name is Johnny Mc Farlane, I am an Indie songwriter from Ireland. I write, play, produce and distribute my own music. I try to write songs that will mean something to whoever may be listening. I try to express feeling and emotions through my music, I try to hit the heart and soul of whoever may be listening and to pass on my feelings through my lyrics and my music. A lot of the songs I write come from Personal experiences, some are pure imagination, but all try to carry a message of Hope, Fait, understanding and a spiritual message of love. I am just one voice in the wilderness but together we are stronger. Thank you so much for listening to my music. It’s a real honour.
