One of the most practical things a parent could do for their children is to love them just because. You don’t need a reason other than they are your kids. God loves you that way.

Parenting Day 14: Love Your Chidlren, Just Because

Zero Woofs (A Dog's Point of View)

Every belly rub
Every walk 
Every smile from you
Completes my soul
With the treats that you choose
But some days you’re mad
And that’s okay too
I’ll chase my tail
And bark at the moon

You’re worth more to me than your online reach
I value you more than deposits for sure
Who needs a ring you've got my love?
Your social status? I give zero woofs!
You talk subscribers and engagement rates 
While I'm standing here, trying to get you to play
The simple joy of catching a ball 
Those metrics you care bout, don’t matter at all
You’re worth more to me than your online reach
I value you more than deposits for sure
Who needs a ring you've got my love?
Your social status? I give zero woofs!
 
Every belly rub
Every walk
Every smile from you
Completes my soul
With the treats that you choose
But some days you’re mad
And that’s okay too
I’ll chase my tail
And bark at the moon

Turn your head towards me and away from the phone
You've been my number one all along
I don't care what they think or do
My only missions to be loved by you

Zero Woofs (A Dog's Point Of View)

When the going gets tough, the tough stay. A song about unconditional commitment even unto death. Written in San Francisco in 1986, recorded in 2025.
CREDIT: Violin played by the amazing Lew London, who has lately graced many of our gigs when he is in town.
LYRIC:
I don't want to leave you, baby
Searching for a brighter day,
I don't want to leave you, baby
Though that's always been my way,
Even though the last word
Will not be mine to say

Baby, put your hand in my hand
I'll never let you slip,
If these seas are gonna sink us
I'm going down with the ship

I don't want to leave you, baby
Even though I'm scared inside
I don't want to leave you, baby
Though I've listened to you cry,
Even though the storm clouds
Are gathering in the sky

Baby put your hand in my hand
And never let me slip,
If these seas are gonna sink us
I'm going down with the ship

Even if we never find the shore
Even if we don't know how
I could never leave you now...

Baby, put your hand in my hand
I'll never let you slip,
If these seas are gonna sink us
I'm going down with the ship
If these seas are gonna sink us
I'm going down with the ship.

I'm going down with the ship

[Verse 1]
I held your hand when you were small,
You found your voice and made it loud.
You carved your name, you stood up tall,
I hope I've always made you proud.

[Verse 2]
But now you walk a path unknown,
A road I wouldn’t take myself.
You ask me to embrace your own,
Yet I still hold what shaped myself.

[Chorus]
I may not see the way you do,
But love was never built on sand.
No life or choice will change our love,
Or break the bond we’ve always had.

[Verse 3]
You chase the light that calls your name,
You stand so sure in what is true.
But though our views are not the same,
I’ll never turn my back on you.

[Chorus]
I may not see the way you do,
But love was never built on sand.
No life or choice will change our love
Or break the bond we’ve always had.

[Bridge]
Love’s not a mask, it won’t pretend,
It stands through fire, deep and wide.
I'll always love through thick and thin,
Know that I'm always on your side.

[Outro]
You’re still my child, I'm forever proud
No matter where life take us both. 
Meantime, let's have fun with all our might
Life's too short, to fuss and fight!

Proud

02 AI Collective - Proud

From time to time I seem to modify the mixes, hopefully for the better. So, that's the new version of this old classic, out now on all the streaming services :)


Do you hope for uncontitional love?
Do you search for uncontitional love?
Do you strive for unconditional, uncontitional love?
...
What d'you think of freely feeling love?
Do you dream of unconditional love?
Do you search for unconditional, unconditional love?
Do you strive for unconditional, unconditional love?

Unconditional Love (2024 mix)

This is a song about love that is unconditional. It's a story of loyalty despite the challenges of anxiety and depression. Love like this is faithfully and true.

taara's song

“OM: Ascension” is the soft landing after the fire. 🔥
The sacred outro to ZEN MODE, where the warrior rests and the goddess dissolves into starlight. 🌌
This isn’t just a beat change
—it’s a dimensional shift. A sonic prayer. 🪬
A quiet invocation of light after transformation. 🐉

Float in it.
Breathe through it.
Let it take you where words can’t.

This is Ascension. We are Ascending...

🕉️,
— D3Vī

OM: Ascension (Outro)

"My Therapist Has A Wet Nose" is a heartwarming country folk tune by Russell Nomer, celebrating the unconditional love and support our furry friends provide. When life gets ruff, there's nothing like a wagging tail and a wet nose to remind you that you're not alone. This song is a tribute to the best therapists we know – our dogs!

Unconditional love from the perspective of man's best friend.

Unspoken

Friends…How do we know if someone is a true friend? Loyalty, respect, kindness, honesty- do we expect them from our friends? Why would we accept anything less from the people we have in our lives?

Love Me Unconditionally variation 2

I had an epiphany on 10/31/23, that there was a beautiful young adult in the wilderness I was uncle to, a treasure I've known since she was a year old, for whom I ought to be doing much, much more. I wrote this song that night, for Catalina Benitez, my star.

Every bird in solitary
If a girl feels ordinary
Every boy who needs to make his mark and fly
Never wait for nasty weather to subside
Get up off your chair

Sow a seed somewhere
Sow a seed somewhere
Dig it deep beneath the ground
And sow a seed somewhere
Making sure it’s safe and sound
Sow a seed somewhere

Sow a seed somewhere
Bring your love to bear
Let it blossom all around
And sow a seed somewhere
No more time for Johnny Weed
Sow a seed somewhere
	 
When the rain sheets in the morning
Out on Main Street without warning
Paint a rainbow shining all around the sky
Put a twinkle in a little baby’s eye
Let her see you care

Sow a seed somewhere
Leave your cupboard bare
Give it all you’ve got and then
Go sow a seed somewhere
Put a shoe on, make a plan
Oh, sow a seed somewhere
Sow a seed somewhere

Sow a seed somewhere
Don’t leave nothing there
Give it all you’ve got and then
Go sow a seed somewhere
Catalina’s song is me
So sow a seed somewhere
Sow a seed somewhere

Catalina's Song

This deeply emotional pop ballad tells the story of a devoted spouse sitting by their partner's bedside in a hospital room, refusing to give up hope despite the darkness of a coma. "I'm Here My Love" captures the raw vulnerability of watching someone you love fight for their life, while holding onto the power of unconditional love and faith.

The song explores themes of eternal commitment, hope against all odds, and the kind of love that transcends physical presence. With haunting melodies and heartfelt lyrics, this ballad resonates with anyone who has experienced the pain of potentially losing someone dear to them.

This pop ballad serves as both a testament to marital vows and a reminder that love persists even in the darkest moments. Whether you're going through difficult times or simply appreciate emotionally charged music, "I'm Here My Love" offers comfort and connection through its universal themes of love, loss, and hope.

The Martin brothers, Darin and Jeremy, captivate audiences with their unique mix of original songs and cherished covers. Known for their signature vocal sound, the 'Martin Brothers Collective' creates more than just music—they weave powerful stories and enchanting harmonies, ensuring each performance resonates long after the final note.

Whether performing as a duo or joined by their band the 'Collective', the Martin brothers deliver unforgettable experiences.

3 piece rock band, family group: 

Michele Candrina (bass, vocals)
Stefano Candrina (drums, seldom vocals)
Susanna Comincioli (guitar, vocals).

Michele being the all around manager (and the one who writes here XD).

Our style guidelines:
- everything recorded at home with no professional help
- try to keep a live feeling

We have daytime jobs, we make music as a hobby and do not plan otherwise. We record everything by ourselves at our home studio with little equipment.

We're proudly based on soundcloud as this platform is really helping spontaneous artistry to develope, take shape and hopefully slowly get to the ouside world. Keep going fellow soundclouders!

The band started in 2013 out of friendship, love of music and as a new adventure. At that time none of us had much knowledge as about how to play the instrument, let alone how to record a track. 

Fast forward ten years and we're still naive and constantly improving the quality of the product with new musical and technical ideas.

You can expect a slow output from us in the forseeable future.

The video for my latest, Shoeless Whisper: Shoeless Whisper
https://youtu.be/jVBaKNl1OLs

Hi all, so from 2016 to 2024 I assembled and produced a large collection of covers of many of my favorite tunes as my own hobby (and many during COVID lock-downs!) and I have accumulated over 2,800,000 plays across the world which is awesome!

I am much more of a producer that a musician. These first 8 years of my music was mostly based on midi cover tracks often downloaded from the Internet but heavily reproduced and re-imagined variously on my two Yamaha keyboards (Clavinova and PSR 975), but also using PC midi editing & DAW software.

Towards the end of that period, I added some of my more original electronic music which I produced over the past two decades under the name of Funkleberry in order to consolidate my Soundcloud accounts. 

But in 2024 I got into AI music generation and I am now  a freelance sonwriter and AI music producer. It's been a fun journey!

My first 4 AI Albums can also be found here:

If you like anything you hear, please pass them on!

We are a community of faith. 

We meet Sundays from 10:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at 13246 Mapledale St. Norwalk, CA. 90650. 

Rick launched the Life Over Coffee global training network in 2008 to bring hope and help for you and others by creating resources that spark conversations for transformation. His primary responsibilities are resource creation and leadership development, which he does through speaking, writing, podcasting, and educating.

In 1990 he earned a BA in Theology and, in 1991, a BS in Education. In 1993, he received his ordination into Christian ministry, and in 2000 he graduated with an MA in Counseling from The Master's University. In 2006 he was recognized as a Fellow of the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors (ACBC).

My new album, "only the love songs", is now on Soundcloud. It's the latest in a series that began last year, as I set out to release online the best songs I have written over the last 50 years – none of them having got onto the radar screen of the public before. Some I already had good recordings of, but many needed to be recorded for the first time. The project continues...!

BIO:
In his mid-20’s, grad student J.M. Kearns was bitten by the songwriting virus, planted by the insidious influence of Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen and other reprobates. He wrote his first song after getting his heart broken on a canoe trip, and after that the songs just kept coming. So he ditched a future in academic philosophy, and thumbed his way to Los Angeles, where songwriting was hot.

In L.A. there were a couple of near-breakthroughs — an audition at Electra-Asylum Records, a song meeting with Warren Beatty — but then things got real. Kearns had to eat. He worked as a house painter, then a telegram-singing donkey, and then he really hunkered down, as a bureaucrat at a huge downtown law firm, exchanging molecules with tall office buildings. He did a lot of writing and recording, but not a lot of performing.

That changed when he moved to Nashville. After a thousand writers’ nights, he was given his first real gig, an 8:30 slot at a notorious club called the Gold Rush. Good things started to happen. Kearns found his mojo as a performer and a band formed around him, dubbed the Lonely Mammals. In 2007 he issued a CD with them called Death or Life, and Elmore magazine gave it a rave review. Also that year, his novel The Deep End was published (https://www.amazon.com/Deep-End-J-M-Kearns/dp/1500502707 ). And five of Kearns’ songs were recorded by independent artists. 

In 2010, pursued by a giant snowstorm with his cat in an old Ford hemorrhaging oil, Kearns made the move to Cape May, a sunny beach town at the southern tip of New Jersey, where he performs in a trio called The Squares with his partner Debra Donahue and their friend M.Q. Murphy. And of course, he keeps writing songs. Oddly, his life’s circle became unbroken when a musician friend got him a job teaching philosophy at a nearby university. In May 2024 Kearns released his first solo album, Before the coffee gets too cold.
