Description: Check out the Elvis 68 comeback special. It is the last song. I always loved Elvis but this song has so much power. I am blown away with his performance.

Wow!!! Stunning power and such a rich tone to your vocals!! Outstanding!!!!!!!!

Wonderful cover of this great Elvis song, Tony!

I love Elvis and i love your version great listen 👍

great cover -wonderful work -amazing voice

you're luv of the King comes through in this cover Tony-a great arrangement too

The vocal is very close, there's just one more uncanny valley to cross. That aside, as usual, you do the song justice. Not a fan of Elvis myself but I can see just how influential he was.

I imagine you spent many a happy hour getting this just right. As you do.

Why?

Taffeta 175

TAFFETA | 175

This is a song for my Mary, but it is applicable to all Mary's. 

This is my first attempt at recording new material since last summer, I've been writing and playing a lot, but I just haven't had the time lately to get my ideas on tape. So it's nice to get this one out, and hopefully, it'll not be as long a wait for my next. 

Thanks for all the listens and support, it's greatly appreciated as always. cheers!

lyrics

don't let the world dictate to you
be your own girl
in a world that's you

don't always swim against the tide
time won't always be on your side
so don't go wasting all your time 

don't let the world
loose from your grasp
come up for air
whenever you get the chance 

don't always swim against the tide
time won't always be on your side
so don't go wasting all your 
wasting all your
wasting all your
wasting all your
wasting all your
wasting all your time

you always think there's somebody 
better off than you
don't listen to the boys 
they all screaming that it's true

you always think there's somebody 
better off than you
but there's nobody out there
can do you as good as you

so don't let the world
edit out your past
look back with pride 
and don't
catapult so fast

don't always swim against the tide
time won't always be on your side
so don't go wasting all your
wasting all your
wasting all your 
wasting all your 
wasting all your time

Time, For Mary

420 '23 Demo 5 (the last demo)

On a park bench sat an old man all alone
Working the daily Sudoku
I didn’t really want to bother him
I asked if I could sit and rest a minute or two

He said life’s not so simple lad
Even with the modern advances we have made
They only seem to make you lazy and dumb
The young they will not work, yet they still want paid

With a nod of my head, I was on my way
Thinking of the things this old man had to say
It’s probably something that the generations voice
Was he speaking truth or only making noise?

Do we make life difficult in the choices that we make?
Or are our journeys left to chance?
Either way it’s not so simple what we choose
We still keep going forward; to the music we dance

Instrumental Bridge

My thinking soon got the best of me
I went back to the bench but the old man was gone
He left his paper and the puzzle on the bench
I could see that every space he filled was completely wrong

It’s not so simple running the rat’s race
It’s not so simple, looking through the wall
Does it really matter if the old man’s right or wrong?
We’ll settle in our old pine box and in the ground we fall

Not So Simple

"The Rape of Lucretia" is a Chamber Opera written by Benjamin Britten in 1946, the libretto was written by Ronald Duncan.

Piano accompaniment by Helen Roberts

The legendary rape of Roman noblewoman Lucretia by Tarquin, king of Rome, and her subsequent suicide are credited as inspiring the revolt against the Tarquin family by Lucius Junius Brutus which led to the founding of the Roman Republic.

I worked In a family business for 30 years. i decided to leave because there was something missing in my life. I think i have found it! . The pure joy it brings!!! Music! I have worked with some great artists here and that has helped me so much as i learned to step out of the box!  In the end if i can say i shared what i love then i am satisfied!! It just means so much to me to see you guys sharing your soul! In the end we are all successful!!!!!
