"Fields Of Grain"

The Sogdians were traders on the Silk Road. They were famed for their welcome.  A small group of their descendants remain, living in a far off valley. 
Maybe still a work in progress, I recorded this little tune on ‘SaySo’ my Les Paul as an antidote for all the modulation and delay obsessions. I’m still messing with the production so may repost it one day. I can never seem to get tracks working well on different kinds of speakers so I hope this sounds good for you.

Sogdian Greetings

This is a demo I composed for a samples library called "Magnetica" created by Sonora Cinematic company. Enjoy and check out their store here : www.triplespiralaudio.com/

LYRICS:

you can't fight fire with fire
someone always gets burned.
i've got this raging desire
tidal waves can't be turned.

ooh ooh...

i could burn down your house
turn your whole world upside down.
don't swim in deep water, girl, no...
there's every chance that you'll drown

ooh ooh...

and you...
what would you do for love?
would you cry for me?
yeah you!
what would you do for love?
would you die for me...?

you can't fight fire with fire
someone always, always gets burned
you'd do exactly the same
if the tables were turned...

LYRICS:

last time i saw her she was barefoot,
smoking grass,
alone in the park.

summer has spoken in engaged tones,
honey bee drones and the hum of traffic.

why does it always end the same?
why does it have to be this way?

pink lemonade for a blue girl
pink lemonade for a blue girl
pink lemonade for a blue girl
she wants to escape to her own world.

i hear her voice in the sea's breath,
whispering 'goodbyes' from the dark depths
of the high tide;
in the gulls' cries;
in the blue blue eyes and the clink of ice...

why does it always end the same?
why does it have to be this way?

pink lemonade for a blue girl
pink lemonade for a blue girl
pink lemonade for a blue girl
she wants to remain in her own world.

la-la-lahhh [ad lib]

Pink Lemonade for a Blue Girl

Glow

a deeply personal song about almost losing someone close to me, and coming to terms with that.  something i don’t ever want to re-live, but it made me love them so much more.  more than i ever thought possible.

this song is available to BUY on bandcamp https://miaowmcdonald.bandcamp.com/track/a-fucked-up-lovesong

"A Fucked Up Lovesong" is also available on all other digital platforms to download and/or stream... iTunes, Spotify, Napster, Deezer, GooglePlay, AppleMusic, TikTok, YouTube  etc etc etc...

(c)(p) written & performed by Miaow McDonald

lyrics:

don't say you love me - or that you want me now...
don't say you want me - or that you love me now...

never been this high
i'm scared of heights
i'm scared of falling down.
never in this life
have i swam in sunlight
i'm scared i'm gonna drown.

'cos i love you more now
than i ever thought i would
i ever thought i could...
i love you more now
than i ever thought i would
i ever thought i could...

just say you love me - and that you want me now...
just say you want me - and that you love me now...

close the door
and hold me tight...
don't ever let me go
when i saved your life
you saved me from myself...
don't let that go...

'cos i love you more now
than i ever thought i would
i ever thought i could...
i love you more now
than i ever thought i would
i ever thought i could...

A Fucked Up Lovesong

What is the difference between a dream or delusion? 
Dreams-delusions
Hoping the truth sets them apart
For tales the story of a broken heart
Dreams and wishes turn to 
Delusions 
Facing the realty of the unknown, the impossible
Hope fades and fades

My homework with all its blunders

Dreams -delusions

All Velvet of Wing (live)

Finding new melodies, beats and hooks is my thing.
