One of your best I feel. Absolutely beautiful ❤️

"Melancholy Man" is a song written by Mike Pinder that was first released on the Moody Blues' 1970 album A Question of Balance. It was also released as a single in some countries, but not in the UK or US, although in the US it was later released as the b-side of "The Story in Your Eyes"
Midder critic Will Fenton described the lyrics as "a reflection on the struggles of life, with a focus on the need for inner peace and hope in the face of adversity." Music journalist Mark Murley said of the lyrics that "the song's lyrical imagery is just mysterious and indefinite enough to invite speculation over its meaning. In 1996 Pinder said of the lyrics that:

The single most incorrect interpretation of "Melancholy Man" had been that maybe it was a song about me being melancholy. I used that as a way of saying that there are different levels of melancholy, and that this was a melancholy for the whole world, because of the impending breakdown of the structure in all things that we have seen happen since the song came out, 26 years ago. What we're seeing now is just more results of what was being done then, and what continues to be done by the industrial giants and governments of the world, and the greedy little cigar-smoking guys like on the album cover".

Melancholy Man-The Moody Blues (Cover)

turn it up

down to ground/Nova J

[Verse 1]
You said love would lift us high
But the air got thin up in the sky
Now I’m standin’ here, both feet down
Tryin’ to breathe on solid ground
Guess I thought I had it all figured out
Now I’m older, just full of doubt

[Chorus]
So I come back down to ground
Where the noise don’t drown me out
All the dreams I built came crashin’ down
So I’m learnin’ to live without
Every time I start to climb
Something pulls me back around
Yeah, I come back down to ground

[Verse 2]
I’ve been bettin’ on a bad hand
Thinkin’ love’s what makes a man
Now I’m countin’ what I’ve lost
And I can’t pay off the cost
Never thought I’d break again
But the house don’t let you win

[Chorus]
So I come back down to ground
Where the quiet feels like truth.
Guess I flew too far too soon
Now I’m hummin’ the crash-land blues
Every time I think I’ve found
Heaven hangin’ in the clouds
I come back down to ground

[Bridge]
How do you choose who to love
When every time it ends in flames
And why’s my heart so stubborn 
I keep losing at the game

[Final Chorus]
So I come back down to ground
With my ego banged around
Maybe fallin’s just a way
To see things here and now
I was racin’ for the sky
But it’s time to slow things down
Yeah, I come back down to ground

down to ground

God is Great Mystic

Woke up one morning with memories of loved ones and friends who were no longer here. I had the sudden realisation that once Im gone , who will remember me ? Yes I have loved ones, family and friends but what is my legacy ? Life is short, life is precious. I’ve had a great life and experiences but what have I accomplished and who will remember me once Im gone ? 


Cold whispers rise The wind does call 
A shadow walks where no one's tall 
Footsteps left Then gone too soon  

Footsteps in the snow They fade 
Gone before the light invades 
Once the snow melts Who will know I was here 
I let it show  

A fleeting print A fleeting name 
The frost won't hold It plays no game 
Each step I take Erased again  

I write my story Line by line 
The snow erases every sign  

Footsteps in the snow They fade 
Gone before the light invades 
Once the snow melts Who will know I was here 
I let it show  

No monuments No flags No flames 
No crowd to chant forgotten names 
Just whispers lost in empty air 
A trace of nothing Barely there 

Im gone, Im not here , who will remember me me when I’m gone ?

Footsteps in the snow.mp3

This song is my promise of lifelong love. It’s about walking through every season, every change, hand in hand with the person I cherish. Even as time leaves its marks, the bond stays strong. For me, it’s a commitment that love will last, grow, and carry us through the years.

Aura Alpaca

"We Danced in the Rain" is a melancholic pop ballad featuring a raspy female voice, where piano leads the way and a symphonic layer of strings gradually unfolds. Starting softly and intimately, the song builds in emotion and depth, capturing the bittersweet beauty of fleeting moments and nostalgic memories. Gentle, reflective, and romantic "We Danced in the Rain" invites you to lose yourself in the warmth of a rain-soaked evening and the intimacy of shared connection.

Lyrics:

I remember that summer, the clouds rolled in
Little did we know, that’s where the fun would begin
You grabbed my hand, said, "Let’s not be afraid"
We twirled in the downpour, our hearts laid bare

And when the thunder rumbled low
You always made my spirit glow
In every storm, you made it clear
There’s nothing left for us to fear

So we danced in the rain, oh, my favorite game
Every drop is a whisper, calling out your name
With you by my side, love’s a wild refrain
We’ll keep moving forward, even when it’s gray

Splashing in puddles, our laughter took flight
Remember that night, under glowing street lights
We spun as the raindrops fell, wild and free
Each moment a treasure, just you and me

And when the thunder rumbled low
You always made my spirit glow
In every storm, you made it clear
There’s nothing left for us to fear

So we danced in the rain, oh, my favorite game
Every drop is a whisper, calling out your name
With you by my side, love’s a wild refrain
We’ll keep moving forward, even when it’s gray

Every storm that we weather only makes us grow
We’re resilient together, in the soft afterglow
When the skies are heavy, I’ll hold you so tight
In this dance of forever, we’ll shine through the night

So we danced in the rain, oh, my favorite game
Every drop is a whisper, calling out your name
With you by my side, love’s a wild refrain
We’ll keep moving forward, even when it’s gray

So let’s keep on dancing, with joy in our soul
Every storm that we face makes our story whole
Through laughter and tears, we’ll weather the pain
Forever and always, we’ll dance in the rain

'Living In The Red Dust' A Daoist term, 'Red Dust. is the view that the vast majority of the population of Planet Earth are either involved in and/or are oblivious to, the wars, genocide, poison of earth, water and air of our planet. Those of us who are exempt from either camp, must still live in the 'Red Dust'. So this track featuring Georg on winds, soloing and wind ensemble arranging, is our acknowledgement of the above grievances to the planet and all life on it, that we  both share.

Please no promoters or video makers or cover artists!!!!

I’m a hobbyist songwriter who creates music across genres, letting the mood and lyrics shape the sound. Inspiration can come from almost anything I see, feel, or hear — even a sad movie might spark the urge to write something melancholic. When I make music, I often connect deeply with it myself, sometimes even moved to tears by the songs I create.

I started writing songs because music has always been an essential part of my life. Without music, there would be no life. For me, it’s a safe place, a way to process emotions, and a medicine that helps with almost anything.

I use different DAWs like FL Studio and Audacity, and sometimes build tracks from loops. Thanks to today’s tools, the vocals you hear are virtual — which is probably for the best, so no one’s ears have to suffer from my singing!

All kinds of music can inspire me, as long as it touches me in some way. If my music can resonate with someone out there, then it’s all worth it.
