This song belongs in a movie. It’s about a young sailor who meets a girl from a world far from his. This was the relationship that formed me artistically. It is meeting the right person at the right time to get you to where you are today.

I Need to Know If You're Happy Now

I Need to Know If You're Happy Now By Dave Hanrahan 🌎 Music

The Tijuana Cantina was a place where Everybody knew 
your name. Oh wait,  that was somewhere else. Seriously, it's a place where we all wanted to be and be seen. You never knew who you would meet. The Music was always Bumpin', the floor was always Thumpin' and the drinks were always cold.

Like A Phoenix

Like A Phoenix (Unplugged)

Like A Phoenix (Unplugged) - John Goldrust

"Downhill" is a rock/pop anthem rooted in the frustration and heartbreak of watching a once-stable connection unravel. Inspired (surprisingly) by a fallout with my ex-landlord, the song explores shifting dynamics, emotional confusion, and the sting of unmet expectations. While it sounds like a breakup song—and is framed like one—it was actually born from a non-romantic fallout, which is part of my songwriting signature: turning everyday conflicts into grand anthems.

Produced by Jay Ives, Downhill blends gritty rock instrumentation with a polished pop structure and a soaring, catchy hook. Its dynamic build mirrors the inner turmoil of navigating miscommunication and power shifts in any kind of relationship—romantic, professional, or otherwise. It’s for anyone who’s ever felt blindsided by someone they once trusted.

Lyrics:

VERSE 1

We met the first time
And you were all smiles
I had great plans for us
Could be good friends, and then some
I wasn't looking for nobody new
But I was starting to 
warm up to you

PRECHORUS
Then you started mind-twisting
And you like to play the victim
The lies started out white, then turned gray
Now they're so dark, I can't find my way

CHORUS (x2)
I feel, I feel
Us go downhill
I build, I build
So you could break it down again

VERSE 2
I thought I got you
One moment you're so good
But then the very next
you're acting so sketch
You went back on everything you said
Went from rosy pink to seeing red

PRECHORUS
You have such a good facade
I wanna know who the architect was
Once so nice, not so much twice
I won't stay around for thrice 

CHORUS (x2)
I feel, I feel
Us go downhill
I build, I build
So you could break it down again

BRIDGE
We both got our lasts
You got the word 
and I had had the straw

Every word flashes past
The lessons learnt
The storms I saw     
         
CHORUS (x2)
I feel, I feel
Us go downhill
I build, I build
So you could break it down again

OUTRO(x2)
I feel, I feel, I feel, I
Feel us go downhill
I build, I build, I build, I
So you could break it down again

Downhill

Stay

I saw you in a dream
i was you and i was me
you were there but you couldnt see
sitting on the couch next to Gigi
I only dream when I sleep next to my baby

so you can thank her for me even being here maybe
I forgive you
but you've lost your privilege lately
40 years in the desert
and we would all do it 
for love
so who am i to judge? 

its of this earth
but who the hell are you?

I am the same
I just got split into two

now ive past the test of trust
and have become one
of this earth
if its all about love
then just take me

Here I am
Here I am
Here I am


Im of this earth baby
youre not gonna save me
i save me

Here I am

Here I am

Of This Earth
