A quirky little number!  This is the first initial trial instrumental mix for our new song Mirrors.  There's a way to go yet but we're working on it... :)

Mirrors

Phone recording 


Clockwork man
Fraternity 
Compass square 
PR machine 
Castle darkness 
Charity, ground control
Ultimate goal 
Clockwork man
He's not wise enough
But he's one of us
Clockwork man 
One fine morning
He'll wake and take his place
As the face of the dark tower 
For about an hour 
Clockwork man
Clockwork clan 
Scholastic plot 
Wind them up and watch them rot
Pawns for order, sacrifice 
For new machines 
Love quarantine
Clockwork man
He's not wise enough
But he's one of us
Clockwork man

This cool money

This song is a new one written this year and it's about how we've all become Broken Mirrors in some way. All of us, we were a loving people, not a cruel people, we were a caring people, not a hateful people, we were a hard working and strong people but also a very fragile people and I feel we've become a little bit more shattered in recent years. Our beliefs and hopes have diminished somewhat and this song reflects that broken mirror in us all. It's harder and harder to stay positive in this crazy hateful world today. I sang this one since Charlie was not available. I think the mix was too loud but I'm having problems with my computer and couldn't adjust the sound in my film editor like I usually do.

I worked hard on the video and tried to follow the lyrics as close as possible. It will drop on August 1st on YouTube. It's about our lack of empathy as of late and this constant hatred for other people that I now sense in this great country of ours!.  So I asked myself, how did we get here? When a country starts depriving its citizens of basic needs like healthcare and not helping our senior citizens and ignoring the less fortunate among us and stop assistance for veterans (like me) that risked our lives for this country, then we're on a road to destruction and our government has failed us.  All I can do is write songs, so songs I shall write. I still believe in love, love is always the answer!  Take care & God bless!🙏😎✌🏼

“BROKEN MIRRORS"

WE LIVE INSIDE OUR CASTLES,
WE HIDE BEHIND OUR WALLS,
WARM AND SECURE, NEVER ENDURE,  
HARDSHIPS THAT BEFALL,             
THE CRESTFALLEN AMONG US,
THE ONES THAT WE IGNORE,      

PRETEND THEY DON’T EXIST,
PERHAPS THEY’LL MELT AWAY, 
THEY’LL DISAPPEAR, ALONG WITH FEARS, 
WE MAY BE THEM ONE DAY,
THEY REALLY NEVER MATTERED,
THE WRETCHED WE DEPLORE, 

BROKEN MIRRORS, BROKEN MINDS,
SOMETIMES WE CHOOSE TO BE BLIND,
CONVINCE OURSELVES, WE’RE MILES ABOVE,  
THOSE THAT BEG AND CRAWL,
 BROKEN MIRROR ALWAYS REFLECT, 
 WHAT’S BROKEN IN US ALL,

MAN IS A STRANGE CREATURE,
SO CRUEL BUT YET SO KIND, 
OUR TAPESTRY IS OUR ARTISTRY,
OUR HEART SOMETIMES SUBLIME,    
YET SOME HAVE A DARKER SIDE,
THEY LURK BEHIND SATAN'S DOOR,  

     BROKEN MIRRORS, BROKEN MINDS,
     SOMETIMES WE CHOOSE TO BE BLIND,
     CONVINCE OURSELVES, WE’RE MILES ABOVE,  
     THOSE THAT BEG AND CRAWL,
     BROKEN MIRROR ALWAYS REFLECT, 
     WHAT’S BROKEN IN US ALL.

"BROKEN MIRRORS" (Video - https://youtu.be/CUpzZLL-xJc)

Inspired by Yothu Yindi and early Midnight Oil, this track blends Aboriginal culture with modern music. Featuring (real) clarinet, didgeridoo, and guitar, it's a dreamtime journey where tradition meets contemporary sounds.


Inspiré par Yothu Yindi et les débuts de Midnight Oil, ce morceau mélange la culture aborigène avec la musique moderne. Avec des instruments réels (clarinette, didgeridoo et guitare), c'est un voyage dans le temps du rêve où la tradition rencontre les sons contemporains.

Yothu es-tu là ?

3. A Prairie Full of Stars (from CWSM)

This is a cover song written by Lolly Vegas of Redbone. Redbone was a native american rock band. It was a big hit in 1974 and again in 2013 as one of many songs in the outstanding soundtrack for the film "Gaudians Of The Galaxy". I recorded the song with Charlie singing as a birthday present for my wife's niece's son Lucca several years ago. When my wife's sister and her kids were visiting us that year we all decided to go down to my studio and I recorded them singing backing vocals to the song and then we decided to video tape us all lip-syncing to the recorded track. I then later video taped Charlie lip-syncing to the song too. My wife then put all the video tapes together with added commentary before and after the video for Lucca.

 I decided to make a video of the song for YouTube without the personnal coimmentaries. So this video has the following line up: Charlie singing lead and playing the cowbell; Me playing guitar in the stenson hat; my awesome brother playing Bass in the Colombian hat; My wife and her sister Nora and her kids Gabby and Pablo singing back-up. We were all lip-syncing to my recorded track. I think it needs more cowbell, what do you guys think?😂 It was a fun sessions and I thought everyone would get a kick of watching us on the video. My wife video taped my parts and I video taped Charlie and them singing. This is my gift to all my followers so you can see what we look like! Charlie and I are not really much to look at either but we are who we are!😂 I hope you guys like it! It's a great song! (*Easter Egg: That's really me on the Bass! Ha, ha! 😂) Happy Labor Day to everyone! 🙏😎✌🏼
