Description: Ugly truths are still better than pretty lies.

Very well written and performed country vibe Gary!

wonderful country tune. somehow reminds me of John prine..nice lyrics.  written like it happened to you!!

This Country song has some kick to it and I like it.... wonder what's harder to swallow, whiskey or the ugly truth?

Approach & lyrics straight outa Nashville (well maybe yesterday's Nashville).  Top notch instrumentation, & your voice is perfect for this one.

This is re-recorded version of this song. I wanted to make my vocals clearer and powerful. How do you feel? If it’s a bit better I’ll be happy!  And I added some arrangements. Please listen to this version, thank you.  August 28th 2023
I made this song while the time of pandemic. This is a kind of requiem…believing in the spirit

Lyrics
Maybe I just want to see
When we’re together along
Still my eyeing keep on always

How I save your life?
There's oceans lie to see
I will be waiting for...
Couldn’t save your life

Horizon far away stands before me
Dreaming on about down befalling
Closing my eyes in too darkness
What do you see? because I cant tell you how…
 I know we won’t cry
 I heard your voice with no sound

——————————————————————
Maybe I just want to see you again
When we’re together along
Still my eyeing keep on always

How I save your life?
There's oceans lie to see
I will be waiting for...
Couldn’t save your life

Horizon far away stands before me
Dreaming on about down befalling
Closing my eyes in too darkness
What do you see? because I cant tell you how…
 I know we won’t cry
 I heard your voice with no sound
So it tears me upside down
 I heard your voice is no sound

OCEANS

Ugly truths are still better than pretty lies.

TITLE: FLICKER SWITCH LOVE
_________________________________________________________________
LYRICS:

Verse 1)
He walks in with a spark in his stride
Got that grin that lights up the night
A whisper low sends shivers down my spine
Then he drops a line that kills the vibe in no time

(Chorus)
Turn me on like a switch in the dark
Then you pull the plug and extinguish the spark
You’re a firework that fizzles halfway through
Boy you light it up and then you undo

(Verse 2)
His laugh is gold it’s a melody sweet
But his words trip over like clumsy feet
Sparks fly high but then they fall like rain
It’s a rollercoaster driving me insane

(Chorus)
Turn me on like a switch in the dark
Then you pull the plug and extinguish the spark
You’re a firework that fizzles halfway through
Boy you light it up and then you undo

(Bridge)
You're a puzzle with a missing piece
A song that ends before the release
You start the fire then let it freeze
Leaving me hanging in a cold breeze

(Chorus)
Turn me on like a switch in the dark
Then you pull the plug and extinguish the spark
You’re a firework that fizzles halfway through
Boy you light it up and then you undo
Flicker Switch Love
Choose This Version
(Verse 3)
You light the fire then you let it die
You spark a smile then wave goodbye
You’re the storm and the calm all in one
You start the race then decide you’re done

(Chorus)
Flicker switch love oh what’s your game
On and off you drive me insane

Turn Me On Just To Turn Me Off

he told me bout the trail in the tunnel
that I'm walking while
I'm thinking other people's thoughts
little voices
like your father's father's father's
farther than the others
all combined and confined to a tunnel of your thinkin
turn that little voice off in your head
he said

you may find it advantageous
in the long run
there's an exit but you gotta take it
while riding on the boxcars full of other people's junk
pulled by trains of thought
on shaky rails

During the first few months of last year, I was ill with my recurring kidney stone problems.

Fortunately, that passed.

I left some of the compositions I started unfinished, and some sketches were barely started.

This is one of them.

My mother lives in a typical Andalusian house in Seville.

One of the characteristics of these houses is that they usually have a courtyard where there are all kinds of flowering and non-flowering plants.

Obviously, they need to be cared for, watered, fertilized, etc.
My mother loves doing it, and in spring she reaps the rewards of her labor.

I always give my flower icons to the women I follow (I hope I'm not annoying them by doing that), so I thought it was interesting to draw inspiration from all of that to put this together.

Thank you for your comments

I just redid the mix and fixed the drums, and some of the more glaring vocal problems, and got that cool guitar lead to shine a little. It sounds a lot better now.
Please pardon my vocals, this is actually for a female artist. Not autobiographical, just a story. My apologies to Irma Thomas.

You were my angel, and i was under your spell
And you promised life would be a fairytale
But i was no more than your possession
And you put me through hell
Though you called it heaven

And everytime i tried to leave, you’d just wave your hand
And I’d come crawling back on my knees
I would pray you’d treat me better
When you’d smile at me so sad and so sweet

But something’s changed inside, I can see now who you are
and that sweet smile aint gonna get you very far!

Now who’s the one? Who’s down on their knees?
No need to beg, there’s nothing left that you can take from me
You don’t have any power here no more
Well you’ve lost your wings, and I know just what you’re here for
You are no angel, you are a devil, to the core
And you ain’t welcome here no more

Don’t come back inside, don’t put your bags down on the floor
You ain’t welcome here no more

You ain't welcome here no more

Intelligent Faces (Rehearsal)

Ooh, Ooh Ooh, What''s a man to do? I never even knew, she worked on pay per view. Told me she would, but, now she won't. Said I do, but  now she don't.

She Said I Do But Now She Don't

A feel-good, genre-blending journey through the sounds of Southern rock, country, and folk. It's an eclectic mix that feels like a live jam session, with intricate guitar work, layered harmonies, and a laid-back, summery vibe. The songs are rich with storytelling, painting vivid pictures of life, love, and the open road. From upbeat, celebratory anthems perfect for a bonfire, to heartfelt, reflective ballads that tug at the heartstrings, the album maintains a consistent mood of laid-back authenticity. It's music that's both polished and raw, a perfect soundtrack for a long drive, a day at the beach, or just kicking back with friends.

It'll all be OK

Been up all night!!

Autant de mots et si peu de doute...

Merci à Serge Gainsbourg et son Requiem, à qui j'ai emprunté le riff rythmique en fin de chanson
