When Im out walking in the countryside I often look up & see The Common Buzzard that as made an astonishing come back.
The "comeback" of the common buzzard refers to its successful recovery as the most common bird of prey in the UK, after being persecuted by gamekeepers and declining due to pesticide use in the mid-20th century. Legal protection and a reduction in pesticides have allowed populations to rebound, and they are now found almost everywhere in the country. This recovery is considered a major conservation success story. 
So back to the idea of the song which was recorded June 2024.
Crows pursue common buzzards a behavior called mobbing to defend their territory. By harassing the buzzard, the crows try to drive it away from their nest site, which is a common defense mechanism for many birds. 
I can never understand why the powerful buzzard just doesn’t turn and take the crow out with it’s incredible sharp talons. 
The idea I have linked to dating and trying to free yourself from the worst  brief two dates of your life yet she still persists in pursuing the third one.
Chasing you down just like the Crow with the Buzzard.
Hope this makes sense as my imagination always tries to think outside the box with lyrics.
Conscience Of Kings gives you ….

The Buzzard and the Crow 

V1
Just like the scratches you left down my back 
There a reminder of our brief past 
I turn my  talons to be a  lethal assassin 
ever time I looked up that never happened 

Chorus 
You are the crow
Me I am the buzzard 
Fly away from me
My brief lover x2
It’s time to let me go
Cause I am the  buzzard 
And you, you are the crow 

V2 
The first night we met the  warning signs were there 
Sharing platter not shared you  got tequilaed and fell of the chair 
I gave you the benefit of  first  date nerves 
I anit saying what happened second date was  absurd 

Chorus 

Lead break 

Outro 
The carrion crow 
who just won’t let go 
As I try and fly 
into the open sky
Your in pursuit 
following my route 
The buzzard and the crow 
Is there something that they know 
That’s me and that is you 
It’s over we’re done we’re  through

Pause... and Flow *

Have you ever had a good night's sleep disturbed by a persistent mosquito? If so you'll know how frustrating it can be.
With thanks to the author Verna Aardema (writer of the book 'Why Mosquitoes Buzz in People's Ears') for the inspiration.

Hanging on

For many years, an amateur theatre group from my hometown, in which a friend of mine also performs, has been putting on a fairy tale every Christmas season.
This year’s play is “Hans im Glück” (Hans in Luck), and I was asked to compose and produce the title song for it.
Since this is a charity project, with all proceeds going to support children’s causes, it was an easy and heartfelt “yes” for me. ❤️
Together with MiLu Lotus, I created a danceable, clap-along song that’s feelgood, fun, and child-friendly, yet carries a meaningful message inspired by the story of Hans im Glück. I am very grateful that she sang this song with me. Thank you so much, MiLu! 💜
I hope you enjoy this slightly different song from me, sung in German.
You can find the English translation of the lyrics below. 🎶

Es ist nicht alles Gold

Er ging mit Gold, doch ohne Lächeln,
der Weg war weit, der Schritt war schwer.
Was glänzt, blieb fremd in seinen Händen –
als ob da noch was andres wär.

Er tauschte Gold für etwas Ruhe,
für Schritte ohne Druck und Ziel.
Er nahm nur mit, was leicht geworden,
und ließ zurück, was ihm zu viel.

Es ist nicht alles Gold, was glänzt,
nicht alles wahr, was du erkennst.
Was du verlierst, kann dich befreien,
der Weg wird leichter ohne Stein.

Kein Zögern, keine großen Fragen,
kein Rechnen, was ihm bleiben muss.
Er nahm das Leichte in den Tagen
und ließ das Schwere einfach los.

Er kam nach Haus mit leeren Händen,
doch niemand nahm, was er gewann.
Was andre suchten, ließ er liegen –
und ging mit leichtem Herzen dann.

Es ist nicht alles Gold, was glänzt,
nicht alles wahr, was du erkennst.
Was du verlierst, kann dich befreien,
der Weg wird leichter ohne Stein.

Und du – was trägst du durch dein Leben?
Was hält dich fest, was macht dich klein?
Vielleicht ist Loslassen kein Fehlen,
vielleicht kann frei sein einfach sein.

Es ist nicht alles Gold, was glänzt,
nicht alles wahr, was du erkennst.
Was du verlierst, kann dich befreien,
der Weg wird leichter ohne Stein.

Not Everything That Glitters Is Gold


He walked with gold but without a smile,
the road was long, his steps were slow.
What shone felt foreign in his hands –
as if there was something more to know.

He traded gold for a bit of peace,
for steps without a goal or strain.
He only kept what had grown lighter,
and left behind what brought him pain.

Not everything that glitters is gold,
not everything you see is true.
What you lose might set you free,
the road feels lighter without the stone you threw.

No hesitation, no great questions,
no counting what he had to keep.
He took the lightness of his days
and let the heavy things just sleep.

He came back home with empty hands,
but no one took what he had found.
What others sought, he left behind 
and walked with heart unbound.

Not everything that glitters is gold,
not everything you see is true.
What you lose might set you free,
the road feels lighter without the stone you threw.

And you – what do you carry through your life?
What holds you down, what makes you small?
Perhaps letting go is not a loss –
perhaps to be free is all.

Not everything that glitters is gold,
not everything you see is true.
What you lose might set you free,
the road feels lighter without the stone you threw.

Es ist nicht alles Gold

Words and Music Dave Rose
Dedicated to Harry Rose

Lyrics
Harry parked the van and stepped out of the rain
Sat in his chair and lit up a woodbine
A little tight in the chest
A little short of breath
And just like that he was gone

Where were his days in the sun
Away from all this toil and trouble

I hope he knew we loved him so much
He was a legend to us

Where were his days in the sun
away from all this toil and trouble

Harry

Singer-Songwriter

I have played in a few bands, but prefer to do my own thing. My lyrics reflect my views on existence and Spiritualism. The environment is also a recurring theme.
   Thanks for playing a couple of my tracks. Cheers for any likes and comments, which are much appreciated.
