beautiful vibes and well done playing that guitar, that’s really neat and on-time

i love the way this picks up in the end bridge area.

nice nice.. i like it. keep up the good work

Love the melody, great harmonies, very nice well done

That sound far too techy for me, but however you did this, it sounds great. Super guitar work and awesome vocals.

For Saskia and her dad (1935-2021)


[Rough English translation]
SOMEWHERE STILL HERE
Hey Dad, how are you
It's been a while
I miss you
I can still see you standing
Behind the front door
From the nursing home
How you kept waving
When we had to go

You couldn’t find your place
Didn’t get used to it there
You wanted to go home
With us
Until you forgot
Where your home was
Who everyone was
It all happened so fast

But it feels like you are somewhere
Somewhere still here with me
And know what I think

Hey Dad, I still see us
Together enjoying
Concerts by Bach
You with closed eyes
You were there for me
When I got depressed
That I was not alone
Spoke out of your face

And it feels like you are somewhere
Somewhere still here with me
And know what I think

Sometimes you were struggling
You could be angry, stubborn
Did not know what to do with yourself
The helplessness of your childhood
You came back to that again
A child, now skin and bone
That was always on its own
All alone

Hey Dad, I would
Like to talk to you
While I rub your shoulder
Somewhere still here, somewhere on earth
Where you are with me

ERGENS NOG HIER

All of my songs started life as a recording in Music Memo, an app on my iPhone. A really handy little app that will load into Garageband or Logic with tempo and chord information... or at least until the latest iOs version, as Apple, in it's infinite loopy wisdom, has dropped support for it... Anyway, the guitar and lead vocal on this track are as recorded in Music Memos on my iPhone, I just added the backing vocals in logic... So it's just as it came to me the first time I ever played it, almost a complete song.... I'm aware it may be me half remembering someone else's song!

But if anyone knows of any third party app with similar functions, please let me know!

TAKE YOUR PLACE

i never knew how much i’d forget and yet
who could ever take your place?
and who could know how much I’d be in your debt
when no one else would take your place

sun rising, sun setting
sun is in your eyes
summarising, i’m realising
how i never really tried…
I never thought i’d have no true regret but
no one else could take your place

so far, so long
so much to know…
sooner or later
i’d remember
just how much that i let go, I…

I don’t know how far I've got left to go but
no one else could take your place
I don’t know how far I've got left to go but
no one else could take your place

Take Your Place (a music memo)

Live Fast Die Young

I feel the lights turning dim and I'm not thinking
I see your eyes light up when we are talking 
And I only think of things we could be
I swear to God it's all just fantasy yea

And there's some part of me that's screaming for you
Like I've never met anyone like you 
And I don't wanna play no games no more
The feelings in my cup are about to overflow 

And if I, I, I, I, I
Want you, ooo, ooo, ooo
I, I, I, I, I
Want you, ooo, ooo, ooo

Yea I can't let go of this feelings
And I can't let it all go to waste
There ain't much to it 
There ain't no meaning
Oh I want it all in good taste 
Yea I want you, yea 
Yea I want you aaaaa
Yea I want you, yea 
Yea I want you aaaaa
Yea I want you, yea 
Yea I want you aaaaa
Yea I want you because there's no one like you

No one like you yea (X3)
No one like you aaaaaa
No one like you yea (X3)
No one like you aaaaaa

You are just like a puzzle hard to figure out
I can't even tell what you are even about 
But I see you slip and God knows what that means
All these lines can't see what's in between

It's hard to conceal but when I'm looking at you 
I just wanna stick my tongue in you
The smell of you just turns me on
Take this chance before you know it's gone

And if I, I, I, I, I
Want you, ooo, ooo, ooo
I, I, I, I, I
Want you, ooo, ooo, ooo

Yea I can't let go of this feeling
And I can't let it all go to waste
There ain't much to it 
There ain't no meaning
Oh I want it all in good taste 
Yea I want you, yea 
Yea I want you aaaaa
Yea I want you, yea 
Yea I want you aaaaa
Yea I want you, yea 
Yea I want you aaaaa
Yea I want you because there's no one like you

No One Like You

Love You Down

«Slave to instinct» is the fourth track in a series of songs dealing with social issues. It is about the question: can we change and break out of old behavior patterns or are we «Slave(s) to instinct»... ?

Slave To Instinct

The Jozers 

yeah

I go out to the club with my friends
I get so high I don't feel my face
Wrote this lyrics in my phone
I made this song with my pain

Take my heart off my chest
Demons running in my head
They are really rotting my brain
That's why I don't feel the same

I hit her with a bye bye bye bye
I'm living my life life life life
Last night 
I got so fucked up
Like a rockstar

I hit her with a bye bye bye bye
I'm living my life life life life
Last night 
I got so fucked up
Like a rockstar

I know that
Nicotine kills
But it feels worse to be stuck in my feels
Hi Satan let's make some deals
Take my soul, let me get some thrills
I need to cry but tears don't fall no more
Last night I got fucked up thinking of you
I'm not enough I'm not enough

I go out to the club with my friends
I get so high I don't feel my face
Wrote this lyrics in my phone
I made this song with my pain

Take my heart off my chest
Demons running in my head
They are really rotting my brain
That's why I don't feel the same

I hit her with a bye bye bye bye
I'm living my life life life life
Last night 
I got so fucked up
Like a rockstar

I hit her with a bye bye bye bye
I'm living my life life life life
Last night 
I got so fucked up
Like a rockstar

(I hit her with a bye bye bye bye)
(I'm living my life life life life)
(Last night)
(I got so fucked up)
(Like a rockstar)

A ginnel is a passageway between red brick terraced houses, specifically in Yorkshire, where I grew up. The ones near where I lived had peculiar sound reflections that always fascinated me when I was little. Macalla is Irish Gaelic for echo, in a nod to my Irish roots…
