LES HOMMES

Les êtres humains se tuent
Pour gagner de la place,
Un territoire perdu
C’est autant de menaces.
A chacun son terrain
Et son bout du monde,
Mais défendre le sien
C’est toujours à la bombe.

Les pays veulent voir grand,
Ecraser à tout va.
Les bons et les méchants
Justifient leurs combats.
C’est la loi du plus fort
Sans chercher à se dire,
On comptera les morts
Sous la stèle du souv’nir.

De tous temps il y’a eu
Pour la guerre une justice,
Tant de corps disparus,
De mauvais sacrifices.
Sous couverts de prétextes,
N’importe, on justifie
Et alors sans complexe,
On s’invente des tueries.

Plus fier que la bête
L’homme est grand, se sent beau,
Et ne reste bien en fait
Que le pire des salauds.
A l’entendre souvent
On finirait par croire,
Que seuls les bains de sang
Lui donnent la gloire.

Que penser de la race
La plus intelligente,
Qui ne laissera pour trace
Que des images violentes.
Et fort plus grave encore
Si on le laisse faire,
Ce sera bien la mort
De la planète entière.

Alors me direz vous
Et vous avez raison ?
Dans un sac met pas tout,
Il y a quelques bons !
Mais en regardant bien
Faut pas rêver et croire,
C’est bien l’homme de demain
Qui termin’ra l’histoire.

MEN

human beings kill each other
To save space,
A lost territory
So many threats.
To each his own land
And his end of the world,
But defend his
It's still bomb.

Countries want to think big,
Crush everything.
The good guys and the bad guys
Justify their fights.
It's the law of the strongest
Without trying to say,
We will count the dead
Under the stele of remembrance.

At all times there has been
For war a justice,
So many missing bodies
Bad sacrifices.
Under cover of pretexts,
It doesn't matter, we justify
And then without complex,
We invent killings.

prouder than the beast
The man is tall, feels handsome,
And don't stay well in fact
Than the worst of bastards.
To hear it often
We would end up believing,
That only bloodbaths
Give Him the glory.

what about race
the smartest,
Who won't leave a trace
What violent images.
And much more serious still
If we let it,
It will be death
From the whole planet.

So will you tell me
And you are right ?
In a bag don't put everything,
There are a few good ones!
But looking closely
Do not dream and believe,
He is the man of tomorrow
Which will end the story.

LES HOMMES (Chanson Française)

On My Own

first mix April 19 - Jack Holston

A song for all us unknown, unsigned creators and lovers of songs

LYRIC
Hey, I’m able
Standing around but stable
Not grasping at straws
I don’t wait for applause
If it comes that would be sweet

In the meantime
Fumbling round for a new rhyme
Hope it comes soon
I’ve got a new tune
And it’s almost complete 

Come on and sing along
Won’t you join me in my song
Don’t be scared you’ll get words wrong
Sing along, sing along

Poor Franz Schubert
Imagine how much it hurt
Pouring his heart
Into his art
And only a few friends heard

Come on and sing along
Won’t you join me in my song
Don’t be scared you’ll get words wrong
Sing along, sing along

If you’ve heard me
And concluded
That old fool’s deluded
Can I ask you something else?
Could you keep that to yourself?

Don Quixote
An arm waving giant in his way
Spurred on his steed
He saw a need
For a hero to save the day
So I say…

Come on and sing along
Won’t you join me in my song
Don’t be scared you’ll get words wrong
Sing along, sing along

Sing out proud, sing out strong
Everyone can belong
Come on and sing along

Sexagenarian Volume V

Sing Along

Jeans (slowed & reverb)

Smooth jazz with songbirds at a chill 85 bpm 

Composed digitally MIDI to DAW via VST instruments, all original, no AI, made by a human

When the magnolias bloom, it’s time to pour a favorite beverage, maybe a cuppa at daybreak, and enjoy the songbirds nestled in the trees overlooking the white petals of mid-spring magnolia.

Summer lurks around the corner, but it can wait! Chirpy melodies, cool morning breezes, and sumptuous magnolias, their blossoms swaying in the wind, set the pace. I think of it as Magnolia time — take it easy even when a busy day says no. Chill out. Tune in. And everything will work out. Stop and smell the roses. Or the blossom of magnolia.
