Lyrics
You said you'd cut me 
after I cried I was drowning
just so you could pull you out 
of your misery
then you save me 
when I said was failing
so you could hail me nothing but 
an in-between
you then stood down 
your empty heart echoes
while holding back all 
your best dogs of war
you whispered three words
I love you
then shouted I never really 
said them before

Said them before 
but never felt them before
heard them before 
but never felt them before
she said 
I’ve felt before
but never felt this before
yeah I’ve said those three words 
but never felt love before

Well I can fall in love with you
if you
if you want me to
I’ll fall in love with you
but you 
you gotta love me too
you’ve gotta love me too
you’ve gotta love me true
Fall in
I’m falling
you look at me and you know 
I’m gonna fall in
I’m falling
I’ve fallen
you looked at me 
and you know I’ve already fallen
Cos I’m falling in muse 
with you
hope I
hope I amuse you too
hope I amuse you too
do I amuse you too?

and then you swore that I'd pay 
all the full price
to not just hang around 
and get the dream one free
so am I ready now 
for your fiction addiction
from déjà vu real you know 
you’ll never get clean
to lost memories 
we know we won’t remember
for all the words we’ll try say 
when we get old
why click forget 
on the things we once loved
when all our scars receipts are truly 
earned and sold
we're earned and sold 
bought the lies we were told
now just like you 
doing nothing but get old
Now I’ve fallen in love 
with you 
and I
I knew you wanted me to
show me you love me too
hope we can see this love through
Fall in
I’ve fallen
you looked at me and you know 
I've already fallen
Cos I’m falling in muse with you
hope I
hope I amuse you too
I’m falling in muse with you
hope I
hope I amuse you too
hope I amuse you too
hope I amuse you too
Cos I’m falling in muse with you
I’ll stop believing
That you’re deceiving
Now I’ve fallen in muse with you
I’ll shred our past
To make us last
now I’ve fallen in muse with you
I’ll never leave you
Always believe you
believe you
believe you
cos I’m falling in love
fallen in love
fallen in love

When Manuel sent me a guitar track over a year ago I fairly quickly decided to write an epilogue for Major Tom. Little did I know that I would end up taking a longish break from writing music. With infinite patience Manuel waited for me until now and to my even greater surprise this retro lyric has become almost current with the two NASA astronauts in space waiting for their return trip to Earth.



SEND ME A ROCKET
(MAJOR TOM THE EPILOGUE)

I can’t hear you 
Still I can see you
A cloudy ball in space
Nothing to keep it in place
This is my beautiful view
Nothing can make things right
I’m stuck here 
A deep longing
Hard to accept this 
This can’t be
This can’t be
My final fate

It’s been so long
It feels like you forgot me
Nobody cares about the shirts I wear 
Did you move onto something new
Cause I’m still looking at you
I’m still waiting for you

Send me some hope
Send me a rocket
Show me that you care
Send me some hope
Show me that you love me

You forgot so soon
It hurts all the time
You forgot I was a shining star
You wouldn't write enough about me
Oh, oh, I’m so sad

Send me some hope
Send me a rocket
Show me that you care
Send me some hope
Lighten your pocket
Show me that you love me
Send me some hope
Some hope

I can’t let go
I dream all the time
I wanna feel the sun and wind
I wanna go home

Stuck in my tin can
With no way out, out
Shiny and bright
Can you hear me shout, shout
I’m stuck here 
A deep longing
Hard to accept this 
Oh no, oh no
I want to go
Want to go
Want to go 
Want to go home
Go home
This can’t be
This can’t be

Send Me A Rocket

Send Me A Rocket | Major Tom The Epilogue

'Turn The Page Please' is a Jazz Fusion/Rock track and features Tony Conway on guitar (solo).
It's always a pleasure to have Tony join me and no exception here, as he takes another excellent solo.

Walking The Straight And Narrow

Turn The Page Please

Turn The Page Please (Feat. Tony Conway)

How far have i gone 
What is this road i’m on
That leads so far from home

Are you here with me now, 
Now that i need you, No, 
i lost you long ago

And I’m barely hanging on 
I need to find the way today
And darling, I miss you so
just give me a sign and lead the way

If it’s the last thing i do I’m coming home to you
back where i belong
I’ll find the way No matter what it takes
down this road so long
You don’t know what’s here till it's gone

In some other life, Or maybe a distant dream,
that i don’t quite recall
But I close my eyes, and i’m there it seems
where you and I had it all

The sound of the children play
And the dogs out in the yard  
The fragrant flowers bloom away
It all seems so near and yet so far

If Its The Last Thing I Do

This is the second track from the Bird Thieves ~ Non Cinematic.
The Bird Thieves is a transcontinental collaboration between USA artist Jeff Roberts and myself. 
The song is about surprising your girl after she thought all the tickets had sold out to Glastonbury after her  favourite band were the headline.
The run up to the event she was down in the dumps but you show up in the camper van with two tickets. 
Pack a suit case we are on our way and leaving this grey dreary old non eventful town behind. 
Jeff as created a truly live festival  feel to the sound  from the instrumental through to the vocal sound with his production skills. 
We hope you enjoy the track and the moment takes you there if only briefly. 

Non Cinematic  (Brownie & Roberts)

V1
Bring ya good vibes  no upside down frowns 
Pack a suitcase cause your leaving this is town 
The engine is running the camper van is humming 
200000 people they are coming 


Chorus 
Look back please don’t stare 
A quick glimpse to see if you cared 
Look back  please don’t stare 
Shades on for the glare
Then we can move on 
Then we can move on 
From this one horse non cinematic town 


V2
going to the diary farmers magical place 
Were all the population hangs  out in one space 
like minded people sing dance and do there thing 
What a place to be in a camper van with me 

Chorus 

V3
Good god thats a sight
a sight to behold 
Everything is true what we were told
Get ready lipstick on to party all night 
We have finally arrived 
To have the time of our life’s

Chorus 

Non Cinematic Town

Non Cinematic ~ The Bird Thieves with Jeff Roberts

Astrarium

I was really impressed by the novel The Paul Street Boys,  what hit me is the profound sense of duty and sacrifice by Nemecsek a boy who apparently  seems to be weak and not reliable to contribute to win a battle, and despite the battle victory everyone lose. I have tried to imagine the feeling of Nemecsek and his fighting against disease  together with the strong will to win and redeem the "Fatherland". It points out important moral issue about futility of war.
Originally released and written in 2010.

Nemecsek

Inspired by a poem by Robert Bly:

 “Ah, on this planet we are born again and again. A gold sun rises in the East, but for us, it is a black sun. Each time the black sun rises, dazzling and tremendous, its sadness flows into us. ‘If this sadness could not flow out of me, it would kill me.’
I listen and I see a horse-dragon swim up out of the Black Sea. It climbs into the air. Play on, play on - what can we do but long for this dragon-water from the Black Sea to fall on us?”

While making this, the medieval text 'Omnia sol temperat' dumped into my head. As it have the rebirth theme as well, the synchronicity of it all seemed unmistakeable :-)

Ah, On This Planet

Dead And Dreaming

This collab with my Dear HyLGZ22 - Let him tread only on floors covered with rose petals - is a surrealistic tribal experimenttion on percussions and horns.

Musique : HyLGZ22 & Damga. Texte : Damga & HyLGZ22

"Lactescence lunaire sous les vibrations d'une onde mystique et ténébreuse. Tu t'agrippes à mes chevilles et te dissous en secret dans l'océan de mes pensées chastes et merveilleuses. Cela serait parfait sans les pétales tombés des fleurs pourpres et les herbes couchées sous nos corps qui roulent. Sans les salamandres de nos instincts crépusculaires et émaciés. Sans la circonférence intense de ton sexe démultiplié dans les angles circonflexes de mes possessions démoniaques.

Tu bandes donc tu es ! Je mouille donc j'essuie.

Je danse nue sur le bord de la falaise, sous les lunules concupiscentes de nos espérances polymérisées. Et le chaos des vagues emporte mon cœur béant dans le ressac de tes désirs, dans la polymorphie de nos accouplements, dans la sombre splendeur de ta servitude gynarchique.
Ta langue têtue s’obstine à ma confluence, dans les langueur gluantes de mon plaisir fractal. Ton membre furieux lutte dans la cage d’acier poli qui le contient et le dompte. Moi seule aie la clé de ton assouvissement, mais jalousement je la garde contre ma peau comme un talisman lémurien.

Je plonge de la falaise, dans l’océan primordial de tes créations fantasmatiques. Les tentacules insidieux des poulpes, les algues lutineuses aux ondoiements serpentins, les pinces nacrées des squilles dépècent mes certitudes et coagulent mes perplexités. Ruisselantes et majestueuse, j’émerge des flots pour m’élever à nouveau au firmament des églogues rutilantes. Et, rêveuse et insouciante, je m’allonge à tes côtés, parfumant ta couche d’hésitations et de cyprine.

Comme les foules en sueur devant l’abbatiale, je contemple avec délectation le statuaire grotesque de nos amours indomptées. Les gargouilles s’accouplent voluptueusement avec les stryges, dans une orgie pourprée et foisonnante. Tu bénis mes solerets de platine et ordonne les ardillons dépenaillés de mes spalières. Et ta fougue marmoréenne inonde mes courbures émouvantes de ses jaillissements nacrés. Et nous nous envolons sur les ailes duveteuses de nos longs spasmes époustouflants et synchrones.
Les longues rémiges lunaires s’ébrouent de nos émerveillements vertigineux. Le paysage laiteux nous englobe de sa chaude humidité non-euclidienne. Et les pigments des ailes pulvérulentes des papillons adhèrent à nos épidermes en sueur.

Par-delà les champignons blancs et pelucheux des nuages, nous courons vers les galaxies éperdues de beauté irréelles, vers la blessure sanglante de l’aube, dans le velours uni de la nuit."

Cantique Surréaliste Et Pulvérulent

Finally after recording over 30 songs we have narrowed it down to 11 of what we consider our best work to date. 
I hope you will check it out and follow us on what ever platform you listen on . Thank you for all the support you have showed on Soundcloud it’s very much appreciated.
60,0000 songs a day get released on Spotify so just a little splash in a massive ocean is all we can hope for but who knows!
We have already had publishing intrest  in the material from the point of moving the material on for other artists and sync work.￼
Acorns turn into oaks but is a long process. 
Since the album release we have gone onto to release singles and EPs on a regular basis.

Gaz Brown, a singer songwriter and the other half of Conscience Of Kings with producer and multi musician Noobly.  Also I’m  a writing partner for Under This Sun with producer and multi musician Sarge, Mike Fox multi musician and producer & multi musician Jeff Roberts under The Bird Thiefs . 

I fell back into writing during 2020 after a 20 year absence. I think the hiatus￼ must have done me a world of good as I haven’t stop writing since, with over 200 songs recorded in studio or demo form. It’s just great to be back doing it again and not having to rehearse in sweaty lock ups and constantly playing live. I have the comfort of my own small studio room and do everything remotely
Having previously only ever fronted bands, the most successful one being 90s psychedelic original underground indie band This Elegant Chaos. I finally bothered to learn guitar and keyboard in the past couple of years .I just wish I had bothered when I was 15 as I might be decent by now!
My songs on this page are just born out of being creative and probably don’t sound nothing like my influences unlike the band page on sound-cloud of This Elegant Chaos.

Influences include late 70s new wave, late 80s indie guitar bands and the 90s explosion of ￼￼the Brit pop era and anything else that’s decent, whatever the style. If it’s good it’s just good!

The demo songs have all been recorded on a Boss Mini BR80 that fits in the palm of my hand. 
It’s all my own work except the  collaborations that are listed under Conscience of Kings, Under This Sun, Jeff Roberts, The Gatsbys and Mike Fox. 
Always open to doing any collaborations with other Soundclouders, don’t be shy to ask. 

Conscience Of Kings is an ongoing project with Noobly that is available on all streaming platforms. 
The aim is to keep recording enough quality material to keep releasing in single, EP or album form all on all major streaming services. 

Hope you enjoy and please feel free to comment and follow. I will always check out genuine follows who put a shift in on my music . 
Remember this is a music community and support is vital without it what’s the point . 
Thanks Gaz 👍
