-1st verse-
Sweet little fun of mine	
Delicious glass of wine
Don’t think I walk down that road every single night
I mean, I deserve it
Soft glow in my heart
It feels like it worth it
It pulls me apart
Rocked by sweet sensations
Rolling to damnations

-1st bridge-
I play and I cheat with my soul
Ruling but losing the game
Wink to fiend, but who’s to blame
Just can’t remember my name

-Chorus-
My spirit floats in space
I dance to the beat
Hot drums, velvet bass
Make me rock sweet
     Out of the devil’s hand
     I’m lured by his food
     Caught in his trap, and
     Bound hand and foot
         My spirit floats in space
         I’m outta the beat
         Hot drums, velvet bass
         Make me feel heat     ([2nd]Bring me some heat)
     Vile poisons through my veins
     Thick haze in my brain     ([2nd]Confusing my brain)  ([Last]Unstoppable train)
     I dance with the devil
     I let him hold the reins

-2nd verse-
Clear vial in my hand
One shot for this quiet land
Don’t think I walk down that road every single night
Pink rose, you look so fine
Some blood on your thorns
I play on the thin line
Straight way to the storms
Swirled by sour sensations
Slipping to damnations

-2nd bridge-
I play and I cheat with my soul
How could I win, bloody game
Wink to fiend, but who’s to blame
Just can’t stay up, what a shame

A Dance With The Devil

Smooth jazz with songbirds at a chill 85 bpm 

Composed digitally MIDI to DAW via VST instruments, all original, no AI, made by a human

When the magnolias bloom, it’s time to pour a favorite beverage, maybe a cuppa at daybreak, and enjoy the songbirds nestled in the trees overlooking the white petals of mid-spring magnolia.

Summer lurks around the corner, but it can wait! Chirpy melodies, cool morning breezes, and sumptuous magnolias, their blossoms swaying in the wind, set the pace. I think of it as Magnolia time — take it easy even when a busy day says no. Chill out. Tune in. And everything will work out. Stop and smell the roses. Or the blossom of magnolia.

Composition – The Eclectic Collective

 This song began with a bass part that Jeff came up with and shared with Stephen, who had added some fiery guitar and foundational rhythm guitar to it. However, it languished on his digital shelf for many months as two parts, until he recently remembered that he had it. So, he decided to share it with the rest of the group. We were salivating, all of us, when we heard Jeff's bass line, so we began with Ken laying in the groovy drums and the tight, driving percussion, which propels the entire song. Once we had a beat, we decided to edit the part to include the break you hear about a minute into it. Mark took on that task, and deftly added the bass in that section, too. 
  Josh was up next, and decided to add a rhythm guitar inspired by Talking Heads. Once he had done that, he started hearing a simple, catchy melody in the main verse part, too, so he came up with some simple lyrics and recorded the vocals for that. At the same time this was happening, Ken also came up with some lyrics and a vocal melody for the breakdown part, which he added. After Ken had added his vocals, Josh added a harmony part on them. He also added the lap slide melody you hear in that section, as well. 
  JJ was next up to bat, laying in the breathtaking organ throughout. He also backdropped a canvas of synthesizer throughout and put in some electric piano too. Tez came along not long after and added the ripping guitar solo in the jam section. Once everyone had added their parts, it was up to Stephen to produce, mix, and master it. He arranged and added some length to it, then mixed it in his usual expert manner.
  This is the first song the Eclectic Collective has done with Jeff, though Stephen has worked with him in the past, and we were all fans of his music, and thus very excited for the chance to make music with him. Hopefully, this will be the first of many.
  We all hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it. If you comment, please share, too. 

Original lyrics by Josh Clary:

The trees talk to each other
They send messages through the breeze
There's magic all around us
If we look for it, we can see
 
Original lyrics by K2 and the Three:

Hey, how you feeling about love and lust
Hey how you dealing with all the lies you trust
We're here to be clear
Just a walk in the dark

A simple Wowlelujah 
A simple Halelujah!

Hey!

Wowlelujah-Eclectic Collective

My first country single written together with Henri Piccini.  Music arranged by Frank Michels 🇺🇸

You And I

Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag
Is what they said in days they are now long dead
Can't get what you want in life
Well get used to it, it is what it is

Don't look back with regrets
It only fuels the things that make the ground
Swell up.and swallow you whole

In my life I would never grasp things till too late and now I know that I would not make the same mistakes, I would not hesitate

To take things by the collar and swing them around my waist, but it doesn't roll back the tides of dither and wait.
Don't hold back the tides of dither and wait.

When they say that things at home are giving time alone to think about the things you never thought you'd think about. 

394. don't dither and wait (harding).mp3

Thanks in particular to Damian Smith and the Journeymen, QB Bills and The Strums for getting me into the Soundcloud community, and John Stone for listening from the start, and all those great musicians around the world listening in. Wonderful that music that didn't even exist a day, or even hours ago gets to go around the world. Always brilliant to be amongst the first to hear new stuff.

Remember, inconsistency means, even if one track is dodgy, the next might be a masterpiece. Keep listening folks, and keep making great music.
