Very nice work a perfect realization. Great.

Cool changes of riff or jazzy sections !!

Fun use of the riff and kudos for not hiding it!

@user-138663860  Thanks a lot! Glad you enjoyed!  :)

We have had another magic invite from Mamoru, and Jamie and I have had a lot of fun working with him on this fab classic. It came together quite quickly, as we all felt a lot of empathy with the song and Mamoru's arrangement.
When I finished the vocals, I realised I had sung "take a chance" instead of "shake a hand" on the last line of the second verse..lol.. we left it in!
We hope you enjoy listening as much as we did creating it!

Composed by the Trumpeter and Bandleader Joe Morris and originally recorded by Faye Adams in 1953
Mamoru - Rhythm Guitar, Bass, Drums, Mixing
Jamie - Piano, Hammond Organ
Lizzie - Vocals
L.Pentland - Cover Picture

Shake A Hand ( Mamoru Tsuzuki/Jamie Rhind/Lizzie Taypen)

Yes, the guitar riff is from that song.
I'm just having fun.
With huge respect to Aerosmith "Walk This Way".

The Japanese lyrics and singing is a bit comical one, but saying "No War".

Fragile Tales [Part 3]

The Last Time (Jimmy Rogers cover)

Rebelled
Why should I complain – Who’s gonna listen anyway – Help me through this pain – she said she would – but she’s gone everyday……
Battle off these demons - each a different kind of way – pour another whiskey – it seems to help me along the way
Where should I begin – when I tell you my life story – do I fabricate – and embellish on false glory’s there’s no friggen way – I’m gonna tell it straight – and just deal with the repercussions – admissions of my truths will set me free – but they’re sure to set me back…….
Chorus
Cause up till now – you’ve really gotten nowhere – A subtle change – and your chaos could be quelled – And you could fix it all – if you only could remember – just who it was – and the reason you Rebelled
So many faces slanted different ways, as if I’m a fool – My Christ he gave me clarity and I see right through – Humanity is cruel.. – Imagine for a second that you could never lie – that would change so many things – but would probably erase your life! 
Chorus
Cause up till now – you’ve really gotten nowhere – A subtle change – and your chaos could be quelled – And you could fix it all – if you only could remember – just who it was – and the reason you Rebelled!
Got a million friends – but not one who I can turn to –  slice of my darkness they’ll never see – I’ll keep him chained – with empty eyes – I set forth back on this journey – and though my load is huge – what I got left I’ll still give to you
Chorus
Cause up till now – you’ve really gotten nowhere – A subtle change – and your chaos could be quelled – And you could fix it all – if you only could remember – just who it was – and the reason you Rebelled!

Creep by Radiohead (short cover by Mera Khai)

A willow tree stands on the water's edge where the wind passes through.
The appearance of the willow is that the weeping branches are swaying.
In life, conflict is like a drop of water floating on a stream.
Even if the wind you don't like blows, the willow will shake and be unaffected.

In life, godsend is like a drop of water floating on a stream.
Even if you once caught a loach under a willow, you may not be in the same place again.

In early spring, the willow tree wears a yellow haze.
A yellow, unnoticeable flower that no one notices in bloom.

Willow (English Version)Cobraznominasan

Nuts  Mamoru & Lecktric

When I had once again surpassed myself in terms of depth and meaning in one of my songs, a music friend asked me to do a peppy circus number for a change. At first I refused and said that I could only do mostly melancholic things. 
But then I felt challenged; and the result was this basically completely senseless song, whose title is a pure mental coincidence association and if you like, has only one meaning: The pure joy of making music, of playing and arranging instruments.    

Als ich mich mal wieder in puncto Tiefgründigkeit und Sinnhaftigkeit in einem meiner Songs selbst übertroffen hatte, bat mich ein Musikfreund, zur Abwechslung mal eine peppige Zirkusnummer zu machen. Zunächst wehrte ich ab und sagte, dass ich eben überwiegend nur melancholische Sachen machen könnte. 
Dann aber fühlte ich mich doch herausgefordert; und heraus kam dieser im Grunde völlig sinnfreie Song, dessen Titel eine pure mentale Zufalls-Assoziation ist und wenn man so will, nur einen Sinn hat: Die reine Freude am Musik-machen, am spielen und am arrangieren von Instrumenten.....
