NON TOCCARE LA MIA MACCHINA

Rosso fuoco, 200 cavalli, il motore che canta e si mangia la strada
i sedili di pelle pregiata, dai vetri oscurati non passa mai luce
status symbol generazionale non toccare la mia
mamamamamamamama…macchina!

Senti il vento, carezza i capelli ma quelle emozioni rimangono dietro le lenti
il telefono squilla per ore, mettiti a destra la sera profuma di sesso
sono il re di questo spazio, guai a te se sfiori la mia
mamamamamammama…..macchina!

L’altro giorno ha chiamato la banca, reset completo ma chissenefrega
se ci sono sei finanziamenti, una moglie, tre figli, gabelle pesanti
perché puoi levarmi tutto ma ti uccido se tu tocchi la mia
mamamamamamamam…..macchina!

This song was released in late 2011 with GVB album "Alibi allo specchio". Sometimes, in this strange world, cars can result much precious than family, sons, health or job. We could say.... a car is one of the most perfect contemporary status symbols. So....it's better you don't touch that GT Super Sport parked right down the alley. Somebody could kill you....

Non Toccare La Mia Macchina

Like Snow Falling

Nothing better than an old friend coming over (and over again) for some talking, and singing, and joint venture piano playing :).

We hope you'll enjoy it.

This one's for Fi and Mike, in ever loving memory.

Over And Over Again (Nathan Sykes Cover With Kiki Jackson)

WHEN YOU FINALLY L:EAVE

Future sunset Omarama
Knowing only you will see
It’s a low brow shrinking ceiling

A contract without words
It’s the thick of family
Harbinger of lonely hearts
The fate of you and me

And when you finally leave
We gotta face it courageously
When you finally leave
We gonna have to suck it up – it’s the right thing to do
We gonna have to draw down on memory 

Fate is born by trajectory
Attraction mangles fences
Leaving snow grass blowing free

And how the years were kind to us
Yearning for the workplace
The weekends oh so bleak

And when you finally leave . . .
Instrumental
You got a date stamp – a black hole in the sky - And I got to make way

You and your Omarama – we’ll both be conscience free
But how will we feel? . . . 

Cause when you finally . .

When You Finally Leave

Mist

Well, this song needs no introduction, you know it, and probably like it. Written by Cyndi Lauper and Rob Hyman in 1983 it's become an all time classic, and my son Gideon has taken it upon himself to write a new arrangement, and to play and/or program all of the instruments.
Backing vocals were contributed by my wonderful friend Karen (Kiki) Jackson, so all I had to do was to sing lead.

We hope you'll enjoy.



*To Fiona - mother, best friend, wife - 1974-2014.  Always.

Time After Time (Cyndi Lauper Cover - Giddy, Kiki & Rob Jam)

I Do It My Way

this song took me 10 years and multiple variations before it made it to this one. I feel like it grew with me as I grew as a songwriter. It's about knowing that you're in a dying relationship and all the ups and downs. 

Ask or Tell

I can hear 
You sleeping in the bedroom
While I sit and clear 
Every sound your phone makes
'Cause it's 2AM 
And normally on silent
But it rings again
He's just a friend?

When you've gone to sleep
Who was in your dreams tonight?
I won't ask or tell
But love I'll be right near your side
This one last time

I am walking here with you, arms around your frame
The windy city breathes tonight, and  makes us feel the same
A distant sigh, convenient lies, what’s it gonna take? 
I keep coming back to you, even when it’s fake

We can make it through, through until this narrow road has opened up
We can be as true as true, as we want to be run by me and you

When you've gone to sleep
Who was in your dreams tonight?
I won't ask or tell
But love I'll be right near your side
This one last time

I think we are through...
Through until this narrow road
Has opened up
And we can be as true
As we want to be run by me and you
(I keep coming back to you
but I know it's too late)

When you've gone to sleep
Who was in your dreams tonight?
I won't ask or tell
but love I'll be right near your side

You walk in, evasive eyes it makes me afraid
Of who's that calling out to you, even though it's late
A distant sigh, convenient lies, what's it gonna take
I keep coming back to you, but I know it's too late

I know it's too late
We gave all there was to try
I know it's too late

Ask or Tell

Words Can't Convey - The Memory Club

Cold & Grey

To me, the highlight of any camping trip is the evening campfire. There is something magical about sitting there gazing into the flames while you converse with any company you may have. This song celebrates such a special occasion.

Firelight Magic

It's the story of a man who meets his first love after thirty years and who realizes that he is still in love with her.
C'est l'histoire d'un homme qui croise son premier amour aprés trente ans et qui s'aperçoit qu'il est toujours amoureux d'elle

On s'est croisé à Opéra

7 o'clock in the morning with an ocean of tears
we should have been pretty, but reality mourned
shadows growing on the back of the door

Words hurled like daggers projecting fears
shredding eachother into million pieces
Scars of misunderstanding formed

A silent tension camouflaged a deadly minefield
Polluting our judgements of right and wrong
even the time feared to move along

still 7 o'clock hope fled the dreaded battlefield
we're craving for love, but affection is gone
we're stuck in this place for far too long

so what's the point of our constant fight
we got burned so many times
so much pressure, so much anger
we shouldn't be allowed
so farewell to the love we knew,
And the time has come to face our crimes
let me fade away
let me be another face in the crowd

severly damaged, i need a place to retreat
searching for silence to ease and calm down
figuring out why my mind has doubts

strong fears and worries of being incomplete
are drowning my soul in a sea of sadness
but is our love worth so many downs

finally found the strength to mend my heart's mistake
I broke the chain that kept my mind in minor
putting my scattered pieces back together

draining my sea of sadness before it's too late
having loved, but now we're done
it's okay to let go of each other

so what's the point of our constant fight
we got burned so many times
so much pressure, so much anger
we shouldn't be allowed
so farewell to the love we knew,
And the time has come to face our crimes
let me fade away
let me be another face in the crowd


Another Face In The Crowd (piano version)

Was out of my head, don't mean what I said...and I can't turn back the pages.
I know it get's real, I know how you feel..come on now, everyday changes.

Brothers and sisters, lovers and friends, and if you love them, tell them again.
So many reasons, before it's too late..and if I could, I would say

Was out of my head, don't mean what I said...and I can't turn back the pages.
I know it get's real, I know how you feel..come on now, everyday changes.

Seeds of chaos, try to dig in. Fighting the battles, you never win.
Let forgiveness rule the day..cos if I could, I would say.

Was out of my head, don't mean what I said...and I can't turn back the pages.
I know it get's real, I know how you feel..come on now, everyday changes.

Brothers and sisters, lovers and friends, and if you love them, just tell them again.

Was out of my head, don't mean what I said...and I can't turn back the pages.
I know it get's real, I know how you feel..come on now, everyday changes.

Every Day Changes

An original song by me inspired by Appalachia mountain music. Enjoy the new tune!

Away The Rain, Come Sun

This song is my first recording and one of my first attempts at writing a song.
