Day 4, track 3: Funky Fmile, sort of Emin pentatonic but not really ;-)

Funky Fmile

It's Far From Over

FAWM song #10  - This is from a 1-hour skirmish challenge prompting me to write a song using an unused title I hadn't done anything with yet

What Do You See?

Day 24, track 9. The protest. Bits of recordings during the february 13th of February 2025 in Bruxelles. I came from Liege by train and really feels like a drop of water that will end as an ocean. I went to the train station alone and start recording at 8:00 in the first train I took, then, 8:26 at the main Liège train station: Liège-Guillemins where there were already a lot of protesters. 9:22 the train to Bruxelles, 10:55 Gare du Nord, Bruxelles. There were a lot of people and there were drums and whistles. I looped this part. At the end, 14:30, in the train from Bruxelles to Liège. There was between 60k and 100k protesters.

The Protest

FAWM song #20 - there’s a few days left so I could possibly do more but I think 20 is a good round number to end FAWM 2025. My voice is shot and I wrote 6 songs more than I needed. But I had a blast and am pleased with myself.

Shine Forever

Day 28, track 13.

Le cul entre deux chaises
Pas certain que ça te plaise
Mi-temps ici, mi-temps là bas
C'est pas ta faute c'est pas toi

Je te promets on a tout essayé
On allait tout casser
Une décision qui s'abat sur toi
Jamais tu n'as voté pour ça 

Ca te fait grandir trop vite
Obligé de te responsabiliser
L'organisation s'invite
Dans ta vie, obligé de gérer
Les clés, les sacs, les vêtements
Je suis fier de toi mon grand

Entre deux chaises

Misfits (ideas)

This moment feels so good, your lips against mine...
Why have you, why have you led me here this time?
We can't ignore what our bodies want to do...
But why am I of any interest to you?

I tell you I'll be back but I don't really know
Will what we started die or will it really grow
It's time for me to go, but I want to stay 
Urgently wondering, can we go on this way?

I go alone, avoiding that rejection
You go through people, seeking that connection
One look into your eyes terrifies me
Do we touch this live wire, or let it be

Misfits (ideas)

Just an ordinary knucklehead strumming my six-string and singing songs. I labor with sweat and tears to make REAL music for REAL people, because I refuse to let AI take that away from us.
