‘Number One’ is a studio recorded track completed in Spring 2021 under social distancing lockdown measures.  Big RU Music thanks go to the guy in the studio who mastered this track and it’s finishing touches 👍🏽on its 13/06/2021 version.

It’s a bit rock ‘n’ roll, quite jaunty, and it was great fun to play with the lyrics on this with the odd tongue twister thrown in for good measure.

We hope you like it!

Young Love

The song is ready-made for a spy action thriller.  Based on the book 'Forever and a Day' which is the prequel novel to all of the James Bond films franchise, the song captures the essence of Ian Fleming's character and the atmosphere of all things espionage.

*THE NO.1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER*
A spy is dead. A legend is born. Read the explosive new James Bond thriller.  A British agent floats in the waters of the French Riviera, murdered by an unknown hand.  Determined to uncover the truth, James Bond enters a world of fast cars, grand casinos and luxury yachts. But beneath the glamour, he soon encounters a dangerous network of organised crime.  It’s time for Bond to earn his licence to kill. He must find those responsible and unravel their devastating plan – before he becomes their next victim…
The exhilarating prequel to Casino Royale.

Forever and a Day

'That’s How the Story Goes'

It's a view from the other side of life, looking back, giving thanks to happy times shared, and departing to a next chapter.

Written and composed with mixed emotions of grief, loss, separation  and ultimately, the celebration of the life of a loved one. 
The chorus of this sobering track evokes the sentiment of the message it conveys from the heart:

'Destiny
What’s the plan for me?
Misery or do I celebrate?
Brevity
My reality
My finality
That’s how the story goes'

That's How The Story Goes

A different kind of love song featuring lead vocals by one of our singers, Lizzi Benson.
Performed as a plaintive, dreamy ballad with a simple music setting keeping the vocals central so they shine through.

Lucky

Kisses Like Strawberry Wine' is a studio recorded track with a lilting 3/4 rhythm and a country-style composition. With a flavour of a song probably best sung by a fireside with a whisky shot in one hand, which is how it began its composed created form, it musically narrates the story of a relationship that grows innocently between two people, very much in love.

However, when they admit this to those who they hope would understand their genuine love for one another, they are met with prejudice and rejection.

In an era of LBGTQ and LBGTQIA, equality and Pride, this song is an appeal for the acceptance of the many colours and forms of love, even though it refers to 'a story from so long ago'. Some are forced to give up on their dreams which may often be an undeniable reality. 'Whether together in good times and bad' which is mentioned in the lyrics can also be interpreted as 'weather together in good times and bad', a reference to loving through thick and thin, for better or for worse.

Love is a strong force which transcends time and space but still has an enduring fight for all humanity to come to know it, in its truest sense.

Hope you enjoy the amazing blend of instruments throughout and the rich harmonies that pop right out towards the end of the track - which has been compared to The Corrs!

‘Hero’ is sung to a Latin-style melody, with Spanish section, by Lizzi Benson:

‘Mi querido, mi amor
Siempre estarás conmigo.
Eres en mi corazón
Y en cada pensamiento
En mi alma y en todo movimiento
Estoy segura que
Nunca tu me verás llorar
Eso es para siempre’.
