Nice Work, I can relate to your description of the process. That's some good songwriting!

German saying: if you don't know where to put the ball, shoot it into the goal. I think you did that when fusing these to projects. Great song Todd!

Worked out well Todd, Love the guitar sound. Johnny

You have such a great voice. It’s so lovely to listen to along with your acoustic guitar. Beautifully song!!! 👏👏👏

Ew, beautiful song Todd. Excellent production, vocals and lyrics. Enjoyed!!

Janne Hennie

This one started out as 2 different incomplete projects (in different keys) after failing to fully actualize either I thought I'd fuse the 2 into one piece with lyrics that touch on longing and loss.

Into the crystal light
a deep and satisfying sight
then I'm in your arms once more

Over the distant range
a tale that never wants to change
can you see it now, with me

Under a mystic spell
the ole familiar parallel
to be in your arms again

After the driving rain
the landscape never looks the same
now I'm back again this time

We will remember
never surrender
We will remember now

Once we discover
Love in forever
we'll make it through somehow

We will remember
never surrender
We will remember now

Into the crystal light
a deep and satisfying sight
then I'm in your arms once more

In Your Arms

Mark says,
"Making music with Rodolfo is always exciting and often a challenge, although I know we both find it stimulating, as we always aim to reach high and this post is no exception. This new song, started its gestation almost a year ago, instantly showed a lot of promise and since has been through many stages of exploration and rounds of problem-solving. The painfully blunt lyrics were initially inspired by a friend's brutal relationship break-up, but the final result is much heavier. I hope you find it moving rather than disturbing, I was trying to match the mood of Rod's deeply dramatic music."

Rodolfo says,
"I think it's a fantastic song and you've done an amazing job on both the story and the vocals, especially those tough lines. When I was writing it, I just felt like a modern blues with a techno vibe was taking shape. The final sound was defined by the story and those really dramatic, emotional lyrics. You might want to make it clear that it's a fictional story to avoid giving our friends heart attacks."

We appreciate all of the kind support that the Soundcloud community has given our collaborations. Thanks for listening and sharing your thoughts, Mark and Rodolfo

Moments of stress,
How did you deal with the rest?
All that is left of you and me,
Is wrecked.
How can we expect,
To go on when there’s nothing at all left?
 
…Left in the lurch,
You should have done more research.
I was truly never a safe bet for you…
For you could have made,
A much better match than you did with me.
 
Open your eyes,
I promise you won’t be surprised,
It’s been there before you,
All along, all of the way…
…Way before you had sensed,
That we had got it all so wrong by then.
 
Moments of stress,
All such a mess,
It’s anyone’s guess,
How it all went so wrong?
Moments of stress,
No more nor less,
Need I express,
How it all went so wrong?

It's a special honor that my dear friend Michele Ansani asked me if I would like to work on a song he wrote years ago called 'Alla Fine della Fine delle Fini' (To the end of the end of the ends) which is a great track. When I listened to it I said to Michele that I thought the song is already finished and asked what I supposedly could do with it. He said, that he wasn't going to publish it and wanted me to work on the root idea of the song to create something new.  Thank you so much Michele for being so generous to leave the basic song idea to my purposes (all flaws are mine).

Listen to his wonderful music here, you all know him anyway: https://soundcloud.com/michele-ansani

One day I walked the shores of time
Wiping away the footprints left behind

Tossing stones into the sea  
Just to watch the ripples making their way back to me  

What if these dancing rings were just memories
Would they come to life once more to set me free?


Abandoned this place that I called home ￼
and took that boat I was hiding for so long 

Facing the storms, past the sirens song
The love of gods in mind may have led me wrong

Set course to the end of the end of the ends
So when you step off the edge of the world 
Make sure that your wings are spread 

When I stepped through the gates of Plutonion
Caught between Scylla and Charybdis I would be found

Sacrificed the ones to whom I belonged
A wise man would rather be envied than being wronged

Set course to the end of the end of the ends
So when you step off the edge of the world 
Make sure that your wings are spread 

Set course to the end of the end of the ends
So when you step off the edge of the world 
Make sure that your wings are spread

Lyrics:

A demon came and poked me on my shoulder and said
Girl you're so stupid and bad
Stay away from people, you will only hurt them
And make them miserable and sad

When demons like that tries to push you down
Tell them to go back to hell
They just try to break you
But you're stronger than you know
Make them disappear from yourself..

The demon just kept going
Appeared every day
Whispered ugly things in my ear
But I chased it out
Watched it crawl away
I shouted: Don't come back, don't you dare!

When demons like that tries to push you down
Tell tem to go back to hell
They just try to break you
But you're stronger than you know
Make them disappear from yourself..

The demon returned tried again and again
To force its way into my mind
I will not feed it my negative thoughts
My weakness the demon won't find

When demons like that tries to push you down
Tell them to go back to hell
They just try to break you
But you're stronger than you know
Make them disappear from yourself...

The Demon

A little demo song about appreciation,,,,,,,,,you know who you are…………..cheers for having a listen


You never ask for more than nothing
A kinder heart you couldn’t find
And what you have you’d gladly give
Always there, to ease my worried mind

And when the wind was angry
And the sky got dark
I’d listen to you sing
And the light would shine around you
And make me smile again
You kept me under your wing

A smile can say more than a thousand words
Among the noise it’s hard now to be heard
But you always got an ear to lend for sure
Never hesitate, to open up your door

And even in my darkest hour
When no one’s getting through
You showed me nothing but love
Your arms wrapped tight around me
Making me feel safe again
You kept me under your wing

Under Your Wing

Merveilles. (translated after the French text)

Moi, je vais devant moi, 
tant que je vois le ciel.
Que je pense et que j'aime,
 l'air, les fleurs, le sel.
Un brin d'herbe tressaille, 
au sommet des collines.
Et dans le ciel vaste,
c'est mon coeur qui défaille.
Quand nous étions amants, 
quand nous étions aimants, 
sous le ciel lourd d'octobre, 
quand la nature se change.
Et je vois, dans les prés, 
la splendide fraîcheur. 
Et flotte dans le vent, 
les images délivrées.
Moi, je vais devant moi, tant que je vois le ciel. Je fais un pas de plus, l'air, les fleurs, le sel.
Solo
Les brins d'herbe qui tressaillent, 
la céleste harmonie.
Quand la nature se change, 
quand je pense et que j'aime.
Quand nous étions amants, 
au sommet des collines.
Que dans le ciel vaste,
nous voyions des merveilles.

Wonders

I go ahead, 
as long as I can see the sky.
That I think and love,
 the air, the flowers, the salt.
A blade of grass twitches, 
on the hilltops.
And in the vast sky,
it's my heart that falters.
When we were lovers, 
when we were loving, 
under the heavy October sky, 
when nature changes.
And I see, in the meadows, 
the splendid freshness. 
And floating in the wind, 
delivered images.
I go ahead, 
as long as I can see the sky.
 I take one more step, 
the air, the flowers, the salt.
Solo
The twitching blades of grass,
 celestial harmony.
When nature changes, 
when I think and love.
When we were lovers, on hilltops.
 When in the vast sky
 we saw wonders.

Merveilles avec Orelya

Título: Dejando atrás los problemas

(Verso 1)
El problema no es amigo mío
Corté el cordón, tracé la línea
No estaré encadenado a la rutina
La libertad es el tesoro que voy a encontrar

(Versículo 2)
Dejé el peso en la orilla de ayer
Encerré el pasado detrás de esa puerta
No más sombras, no más guerra
Estoy persiguiendo la paz para siempre

(Estribillo)
Giraré la cabeza y me iré
Sin cadenas que me sujeten, sin juegos a los que jugar
Los años de drama que dejo atrás
El problema no es amigo mío

(Versículo 3)
Escucho los susurros del viento
Me dice que aquí es donde empiezo
Un horizonte fresco, claro y amplio
No más fantasmas para hacer autostop

(Puente)
No soy prisionero de mi pasado
El futuro me está llamando por fin
Quemaré los mapas que me ataron
Y llevar las estrellas como mi nueva corona

(Estribillo)
Giraré la cabeza y me iré
Sin cadenas que me sujeten, sin juegos a los que jugar
Los años de drama que dejo atrás
El problema no es amigo mío

TITLE: Leaving Problems Behind
--------------------------------------------------------------------
LYRICS: 
(Verse 1)
Trouble ain't no friend of mine
I cut the cord I draw the line
I won't be shackled to the grind
Freedom's the treasure I'm gonna find

(Verse 2)
I left the weight on yesterday's shore
Locked the past behind that door
No more shadows no more war
I’m chasing peace forevermore

(Chorus)
I'll turn my head and walk away
No chains to hold me no games to play
The years of drama I leave behind
Trouble ain't no friend of mine

(Verse 3)
I hear the whispers of the wind
It tells me this is where I begin
A fresh horizon clear and wide
No more ghosts to hitch a ride

(Bridge)
I’m not a prisoner of my past
The future's calling me at last
I'll burn the maps that tied me down
And wear the stars as my new crown

(Chorus)
I'll turn my head and walk away
No chains to hold me no games to play
The years of drama I leave behind
Trouble ain't no friend of mine

Juego de amor terminado

TITLE: STRUNG & RUN
________________________________________________
LYRICS:

(Verse 1)
I gave you love
It filled the air
You vanished quick
Like you weren’t there
You left me tangled
Threads undone
You keep me strung
But then you run

(Chorus)
Life ain’t sweet like candy dreams
No Good & Plenty
Bursting seams
I need someone who truly sees
The hidden worth inside of me

(Verse 2)
I asked for care
You gave me none
Your silence weighed a thousand tons
I held my heart out in the sun
You keep me strung
But then you run

(Chorus)
Life ain’t sweet like candy dreams
No Good & Plenty
Bursting seams
I need someone who truly sees
The hidden worth inside of me

(Bridge)
Was I a moment
Just a fling
A song you hum but never sing
I won’t be left
Undone
Unsung
You keep me strung
But now I’ve sprung

(Chorus)
Life ain’t sweet like candy dreams
No Good & Plenty
Bursting seams
I need someone who truly sees
The hidden worth inside of me
