Letras / Lyrics

Escucho tu risa  /  I listen your laugh
y oigo tus pasos, espero.  /  and hear your steps, I wait.
Te miro, y al ver tu sonrisa,  /  I look at you, and seeing your smile,
no dudo, te quiero.  /  I don’t doubt, I love you.

La suave fragancia en tu cuerpo jovial,  /  The soft fragrance in your cheerful body,
llegó el amor, tu perfume me excita,  /  love came, your scent excites me,
tu cálido aroma, es primaveral,  /  your hot aroma, is from springtime,
y versos de amor sobre tí me recita.  /  and verses of love about you it recites me.

Tu risa sincera,  /  Your laugh is honest,
tu risa, hermosa,  /  your laugh, beautiful,
tus labios, preciosa,  /  your lips, precious,
hacen que te quiera;  /  they make me to love you;
si bien yo quisiera  /  Though I wanted
con ellos hacer otra cosa:  /  with them to do another thing:

¡Ay si yo pudiera  /  Ay if I could
besar, tan siquiera,  /  kiss, at least,
tan maravillosa,  /  so wonderful,
tu boca,  /  your mouth,
color de la rosa!  /  color of the rose!

GOLDEN MONTAGE

I hope this is an enjoyable ride down the instrumental road of life.
This is a very unique song for me, I laid down my drums, keyboards were next, I added the guitar and then the strings.  The odd thing is, each instrument was one take, improvising each one and leaving it as it is.  I've done this with a few cuts but never all in one take with no editing.  It just seemed to work for some reason.

Gambling, the Final Adjustment

How the night came (@howthenightcame) came up with the idea of making an album on Roman mythology (Ovid's great book Metamorphoses) and invited other artists to participate in the project. 
The results are very nice I think: 21 tracks based on his favourite stories, while collaborating with lovely artists like Hypoid (@hypoidsound, www.youtube.com/channel/UCc_iQ5JFusPt9EIwKIZ5rew) and Daniel Diaz (dedeland.com, @daniel-diaz) amongst others.

“Ovid stares at The Black Sea (Niobes return)” was the track I was asked to collaborate on. The story is about a woman who turns to stone: (en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niobe)
The basic tracks and final mix are How the night came’s. Thanks Martin, for your confidence and all your work!

Here you can listen to (or download) The Ovid album: howthenightcame.bandcamp.com/album/metamorphoses with an accompanying PDF which gives you some information about the project.

#194  Ain't Death A Bitch 

 I've heard so many times that life is a bitch. So here we have a somewhat rascally Grim Reaper giving his point of view. And of course he gives a little plug for Bill The Bellhop.

Lyrics:

I am the reaper 
Nothing to fear (ha ha)
I'm here take you on your way 

It doesn't matter 
Who you were
No longer matters what you say

Up there is heaven 
Down there is hell
You'll hear the song of angels 
Or hell's bells

one road was narrow 
one road was wide
only one way there
I'm here take you on that ride

Yeah, life can be a pain
Cause your mind to glitch
Life can drive you straight insane 
But ain't death a bitch

It doesn't matter if you're poor
It doesn't matter if you're rich
You've gotta pay the piper 
Ain't death a bitch 
And here's a story with a twist..

She loved helping out the helpeless 
She gave everything she could 
One night of fun and frolic
Now her spirit burns like wood

But the guy who stole from everyone 
And partied every night
Found his soul on golden roads
Because of something he did right

Life can turn you upside down 
Till you don't know what from which 
Life can spin you all round
But ain't death a bitch

You'll never have to worry
About anything again
All you need to do
To check out is check in
Ask for Bill the Bellhop

Life can can really take a toll 
And toss a wild pitch
Life can twist your mortal soul 
But ain't death a bitch

Life is as crazy as it seems
Off the road and in a ditch
Life is but a dream
But ain't death a bitch

Try to live the best that you can
And help your fellow man
Cause when you reach the pearly gates
You'll be judged right where you stand

Ain't death a bitch

Fresh Air

Fresh Air feat. CALiFORNiA, CortNasty & DisMissedFit (beat E. Jacobs Beats)

Fear is just another word
For hide behind the mask
All this things that sould be done
But we afraid to ask
Looking back I realize
There some more that meets the eyes
Looking back I realized lies

Here we are, playing game
Madness is the name
Remember times when we were stronger
And all this fortune and fame
Knocking on the empty door
Search for truth, nothing more
Haven't found what was looking for

This is not the path we choose
No revert, No excuse
It happens when you blindly follow
All these dreams of tomorrow
Is it true, is it real?
Cannot tell, cannot feel
This is not the path we choose
No revert, No excuse

See it, feel it
Holding in arms
Never let go
Forget fears and harms

This is not the path we choose
No revert, No excuse
It happens when you blindly follow
All these dreams of tomorrow
Is it true, is it real?
Cannot tell, cannot feel
This is not the path we choose
No revert, No excuse

This Is Not The Path We Choose

I hide........in this cupboard.........when darkness........comes around.
Ear........against the door........listening........for sound.

chorus.
Waiting........for daylight........to return........again.
The morning........sunlight........is my........only friend.

A small child........alone........in a big........creepy house.
Can't let them........hear me........i'm as quiet........as a mouse.

chorus....................short piano melody....................guitar solo.

I know........they're out there........waiting........for me.
For ever stuck........in this........houses........memory.

chorus.

If they ever........find me........i will never........leave here.
Stuck in........a world........of eternal........fear.

chorus....................long piano melody....................piano outro.

Fear of ghosts.

Guitar based music. Happy to collaborate any genre
