Wonderful song! Awesome vocals and arrangement.... so 90's (my favourite time in music)! Bravo!

Downtown. Streetside bars. Instrumental. Kind of a latin/blues/jazz thing that morphed into hard rock, then synth pop.

A guitar and voice demo of a song that I hope to record soon. The song is about a long-distance love.

LYRICS

I have never touched you

But you're still here

Our lives are stuck 

Words disappear



I have never kissed you 

I never will

I see your picture 

I Fall asleep



But you still guide me

Between the bars

You say “you are stronger 

Than you think you are”

 

Your words are far away

We fly and fall like rain

My lover, I feel no pain

My lover, I see your name



And I’m so scared 

To hear your voice 

But I’m prepared 

To leave this void 



You understand 

You see beyond 

Why did it take you so long





But you still guide me

Between the bars

You say “you are stronger 

Than you think you are”





Your words are far away

We fly and fall like rain

My lover, I feel no pain

My lover, I see your name

Fly and Fall (Demo)

"Jamming w/ Jazz Bass"

A little excercise that I finished today. I made this track originally some time ago playing a VST bass, but after I finally got a Jazz Bass recently I wanted to try to play and record something with it, and here we go! 

Played by me using sounds from different VST instrument collections (Rhodes V8 Pro electric piano, Native Instruments Komplete Now collection & Abbey Road 1980s Drums, UVI SonicPass collection). The bass was played by me with a Fender American Ultra Jazz Bass (Cobra Blue). 

Sorry about the mistakes with the bass.. But after I sold my beautiful G&L Interceptor bass guitar in the late 1990's it has now been maybe 25 years since I played bass the last time, and I'm practicing:) 

Especially playing with the correct timing and with right & consistent velocities was really challenging. I also actually played the bass line maybe too loud, so had to do some EQ'ing and stuff afterwards.

Rode To The Fairytale Castle

Hey, what can I say? Sometimes it gets rough. But it's still good.

------------------------------------------------------------------

on a summer blanket
in the moonlight
with the beach stones stirring
after midnight

i am ready
and i dare

god you know you’re tired
may you rest now
many ways to try it
lay the load down

i am ready (good to go)
i am there (going)

hey hey hey who
checkout avenue

on tomorrow’s bastion
once immortal
now you sense the ending
as a portal

i am ready
honeybear
i’m not waiting 
i am there

i am ready (here’s my ride)
and i dare (good night)
we’re not waiting (good to go)
we are there

Save Me....
Save Me....

Trust is the word, that comes to my mind
When I think of you
You've been by my side
Through all these darkest days of my life

I'm writing this song for you
I want to express my gratitude
For all of your time
And especially to your wife
Cause you're a happily married man

Consideration
You're a rare example 
You define what is a friend

How many times have I cried
And you've listened to me
More than any person ever did in my life
And I sometimes wonder why

Oh my friend, I love you
Oh my friend, there's only you
To walk me through these hard times

Your eyes, they sparkle and shine
My pain goes away with your humanity

So I just want to let you know
That song I wrote about suicide
Will just stay a song

You'll never really how you saved me from the dark
Each time you answered my call
Yeah, I took a chance, I trusted you, and wow
what a friend you've become
I hope some day I'll be there for you

m m m ha
m m m  ha ha ha
m ha ha ha
ha ha ha oh ooh
oh o oh o hoo oo hoo ohoo (x 6)

You saved me from the dark
You saved me from dark
Oh yeah hah hah
Oh my friend oh my friend
Hold my hand until the end

Save me
Save me

You Save Me

Well, I finally finished the full version cover of one of my all time fave songs, In Your Eyes, by Peter Gabriel (previously uploaded only up to the first verse). This is a straight up cover that's as faithful to the original as I could get. It's definitely the most time and meticulous effort I've spent on a song trying to do it justice. All instruments are played by me on keyboard, as well as the live talking drum and spotty singing, and then some backing synth pads and the vital backing vocals by @remnant60 (https://soundcloud.com/remnant60). Bill was also instrumental in giving feedback and offering suggestions, and providing the mastering duties. I'm very grateful for his help, and since we both agree PG's original song is a masterpiece, we have a bit of a surprise remix version coming up that highlights all the layers of sounds that go into this song. Can't wait to share it with you!

In Your Eyes  (cover)

J'ai écrit cette chanson en hommage à l'un de mes meilleurs amis emporté par un cancer l'année dernière. Il n'avait même pas 50 ans. C'était un ami comme vous en rencontrez bien peu dans une vie. Un poto, un grand frère, un confident, un larron en foire, quelqu'un qui ne laissait personne indifférent... et forcément qui laisse une trace indélébile dans le coeur de ceux qui ont la chance de l'avoir connu. Et finalement, je crois que c'est ça "Le Meilleur de Toi" : c'est un hommage à sa grande générosité, à tout ces petits et grands bonheurs qu'il a semés un peu partout et à tous ces merveilleux souvenirs que nous avons de lui. Quel plus beau cadeau pouvait-il nous faire?

I wrote this song in tribute to one of my best friends who was taken by cancer last year. He wasn't even 50 years old. He was a friend like few you meet in a lifetime. A buddy, an elder brother, a confidant, a jester, someone who left no one indifferent... and inevitably leaves an indelible mark on the hearts of those fortunate enough to have known him. And ultimately, I believe that's what 'Le Meilleur de Toi' is about—it's a tribute to his great generosity, to all those little and big joys he scattered everywhere, and to all those wonderful memories we have of him. What greater gift could he have given us?


Le Meilleur De Toi

Je n’ai pas su trouver les mots
Pour te dire que c’était trop tôt 
J’voulais encore rester 
Près de toi

On aurait du défier le temps
Se moquer de nos cheveux blancs
Ça d’vait pas s’terminer 
Pas comme ça 

Ta lumière illumine mon cœur
J’pourrais la contempler des heures
En rêvant que finalement
On a toujours 20 ans
De toi il reste le meilleur 
Cet amour qui vient de l’intérieur 
Ce profond sentiment 
Que tu es toujours présent 

Souvent je regarde nos photos
Dans mes souvenirs il fait toujours chaud 
J’les ai fait défiler 
Tellement d’fois 

Et j’aimerais que tous ces instants
Brillent comme les étoiles au firmament
Beaux comme une nuit d’été 
Juste pour toi

Ta lumière illumine mon cœur
J’pourrais la contempler des heures
En rêvant que finalement
On a toujours 20 ans
De toi il reste le meilleur 
Cet amour qui vient de l’intérieur 
Ce profond sentiment 
Que tu es toujours présent 

Je n’ai pas su trouver les mots…
