Texte :
Tu me prends la main
Et tu sais que tu peux faire ce que tu veux de moi
Tu m’emmènes au loin
Et je sais que je veux passer la nuit avec toi

Je vois dans tes yeux, ce trouble qui te fait soudain battre le coeur
Ce feu langoureux qui nous fait oublier les minutes et les heures

Je ne peux pas résister
Quand tu me regardes comme ça
Je n’peux pas ne pas succomber
Quand tu me souris juste comme ça

Tu te colles à moi
Et le monde autour de nous finit par s’effondrer
A ce moment là
Il n’y a plus rien que nos longs baisers échangés

Je vois dans tes yeux, ce trouble qui te fait soudain battre le coeur
Ce feu langoureux qui nous fait oublier les minutes et les heures

Je ne peux pas résister
Quand tu me regardes comme ça
Je n’peux pas ne pas succomber
Quand tu me souris juste comme ça

Tu me prends la main
Et tu sais que tu peux faire ce que tu veux de moi
Tu m’embrasses enfin
Et je sais que je veux passer la nuit avec toi

Je vois dans tes yeux, ce trouble qui te fait soudain battre le coeur
Ce feu langoureux qui nous fait oublier les minutes et les heures

Je ne peux pas résister
Quand tu me regardes comme ça
Je n’peux pas ne pas succomber
Quand tu me souris juste comme ça

Ce Que Tu Veux De Moi

The release of single "Ghost in my hometown" with the intense B-side"i always knew" is milesstone in ALL MY MONSTERS recording history. Recorded in 2019, released by Looney Bin records in distribution by Dance all day Music GmbH / Germany

Ghost in my hometown

Jaded, Faded
Altogether Blue
You’ve been searching for me
and I’ve been looking for you
Venus and Mars babe
it’s all in the stars
We’re panning for gold
Mining the seams
Gathering the nuggets before 
we get old....

Venus and Mars

Like the Rabbit Passing Alice

Some folks just never settle down and time is of the essence!  A kind of nod to JJ Cale's Mr. Breeze.

Lyrics;
Every day a river will find the sea
You know you've found a forest just by seeing the trees
And people everywhere just wanna be free
I'm always somewhere else, nobody's gonna find me

Cause I've always been a rambler with a strong urge to fly
I'll never settle down under that big blue sky
I love ya, gotta go,  time to say goodbye
Like the rabbit passing Alice no time to tell you why

You've called the wrong number if I answer the phone
If you're sending me a letter it's addressee unknown
My door is always open but I'm never at home
It's good to be with someone, but I'm better alone

Look from where I'm standing, it's a big world out there
And I'm bound to find my dreams  but I just don't know where
And time's in short supply  no one has got much to spare
But I'm happy for the little time that you and I shared

I've always been a rambler with a strong urge to fly
I'll never settle down under that big blue sky
I love ya, gotta go,  time to say goodbye
Like the rabbit passing Alice no time to tell you why

And every day the river will find the sea
Not hard to find a forest when you're under the trees
And people everywhere just wanna be free
I'm always somewhere else is why you'll never find me

Like The Rabbit Passing Alice

I discovered an intriguing string octet piece by Bartosz Kozłowski: https://soundcloud.com/bkozlowski/vicious-circle.  Drawn in by its complexity I began hearing ideas for additional parts. I commented, he replied, then shared the wav & encouraged me to follow my vision! Thanks, Bartek! :-D

Bartosz Kozłowski https://soundcloud.com/bkozlowski - Strings (East West Symphonic Orchestra Gold Library).
Len Rice - Minimoog(horn), Moog Taurus(bass), E-mu Classic Keys(choir).

Vicious Circle (Bartosz Kozłowski, Len Rice collab)

A while back fine guitarist @devin-locke inspired me to revisit some of the early Miles Davis' recordings which are brilliant jazz masterpieces.  I wanted to try my hand at the style and have Devin join me if he felt so inclined.  He hasn't yet, but may do so in the future:) Anyway, a little tribute to a master...

Dan X2 is Dan Blackard (Reno, Nevada & Susanville, California) and Dan Lockhart (Carmel, Indiana & Edwardsville, Illinois).  We met here on SoundCloud.  We like making music together.  We have written and published over 300 songs together.  More songs written together than Lennon and McCartney.

We play the music that comes to us.  Much of our music has a basis in blues and rock.  Although we venture into other musical territory.  You will find hints of jazz, country, bluegrass, soul, classical, and other music in our songs.  We have a number of songs that change time signatures and pace.

When we first started recording we called ourselves Dan and Dan. 
 You can find our music under that moniker here:
https://soundcloud.com/user-590884876

We stopped using the name Dan and Dan's because there were to many other Dan's using that name.  If you google Dan and Dan we would not show up.  We believe that Dan X2 to be a moniker that we could own.   If you google Dan X2 we are right at the top,

We have a music making process that fits our unique skills.  We each do the parts that best fit our skills and interests.  Dan Lockhart does the initial song development.  Dan Blackard writes the lyrics, perform the vocals, and adds lead guitar.  Dan Lockhart then takes the track and do all final production (mixing and mastering).

Dan Lockhart writes all of the chords, timing, changes, and develops the track.  I then send two tracks to Dan Blackard.  One track has Dan L. describing the song.  Tell him the key, the timing, and any oddities about the song (changing keys or time signature...).  In the track Dan L tell Dan B verbally where is the verse, chorus, bridge and any other important information.

Dan Lockhart then send a second track that does not have this verbal dialogue.  This is called the instrumental track.  This is a track to which Dan B. can sing and add his parts.  Dan Blackard then returns  four pieces to Dan L:  a complete version of the song, a solo track of his vocals, a solo track of his guitar parts, and the artwork to accompany the song.

Dan Lockhart add his information into the original file.  Dan L. listen to it and make changes to the song to enhance the meaning of the lyrics. He sometimes adds instruments or takes away some instruments.  As Dan L. play many instruments (guitar, keyboards, banjo, mandolin, pedal steel, violin, viola...), he can make a lot of adjustments.    On rare occasions he move pieces about.  Dan Lockhart then masters it and prepare it for final production.
