Some undressed songs off the tape machine..........cheers for having a listen


chaos on my mind, gets hard just to find the time
keep on looking, trying to find a clue
but then again, it's nothing new

hide seek night and day, you see me and look away
grey is raining, deep is blue
but then again, its nothing new

up down white or black, getting healthy heart attack
ink the skin, another bad tattoo

right wrong in or out, get ignored talked about
subscribe or follow, discard or use
but then again, its nothing new
it's nothing new

eyes see colorblind, lock the door, free the mind
paid on time, or overdue

chaos on my mind, gets hard just to find the time
keep on looking, trying to find a clue
but then again, it's nothing new
it's nothing new

It's Nothing New

Listen boy now to your elders
And you won't play the fool
Listen to their wisdom
And wear it like a jewel
A glittering jewel
The golden path of progress
Is sometimes much ado
Oh turn around, look backwards

And now this is me, I am he
And the time has come

Listen boy now did you think that
This was all new?
Nothing comes from nothing
Or appears out of the blue
The beautiful blue

And now mark the time, free the mind
And dig for the truth
Don't forget, no regret
They will forgive our youth

Listen boy now, there's a strange man
In the mirror
If you look close boy, the face
Is getting clearer
Now what do you fear?
And what do you hear?

I am you, that much is true
And the years have run
Break the chains, strengthen what remains
Yes the time has come

Listen boy now to your elders
And you won't play the fool

Listen Boy Now

"Looking back it's now so clear
How the road beneath my restless feet
Had a reason it brought me here
Often obscure and bittersweet"

"Hinter uns das Land" / "Behind Us The Land" - Music from Book 6: Reflections (Conclusion of the Novel Soundtrack Series)

Book 6 of "Hinter uns das Land" / "Behind Us The Land" strikes a reflective chord. The music of this collection accompanies the protagonists on their path of introspection and retrospection. In these [Number] songs, tranquil sounds and emotional melodies dominate, creating space for reflection and remembrance.

This album marks the conclusion of the primary soundtrack series accompanying the six books of the novel "Hinter uns das Land" / "Behind Us The Land".

The musical palette ranges from empathetic pop ballads and poignant piano ballads to gentle pop songs, singer-songwriter pieces, and neo-classical pieces, as well as indie pop and soundtrack elements. A grand musical finale also finds its place, bringing the emotions to a fitting close. Each track captures the mood of reflection in its own way, painting a musical picture of farewell, acceptance, and the finding of inner peace.

This music is a soundtrack of a life well-lived, a musical journey through memories and emotions. It invites the listener to pause, to join the protagonists on a journey into the past, and to feel the power of remembrance.

While this completes the core musical journey following the novel's narrative, Beyond & Before Music may explore specific historical moments or themes related to the era in future, standalone tracks. These might eventually find their way into newly arranged collections.

Music: A calm and emotional mix of pop ballads, piano ballads, pop songs, singer-songwriter, neo-classical, indie pop, soundtrack elements, and a musical finale.

In the Beginning

A mes parents, au temps passé qui ne reviendra pas, si loin et si proche à la fois..
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHHqyTAMjZg
Paroles:
Il me revient des souvenirs,
Pour le meilleur et pour le rire.
C'est comme un film à remonter,
Un livre ouvert sur le passé.
J'avais dix ans dans le quartier,
J'aimais les jeux de mes fiancées,
Jeu de marelle je sais c'est con,
Quand on se veut comme un garçon.

Si le temps passe et les années nous blessent,
Si les volets se ferment un peu.
Si le temps passe et les années nous laissent,
Si comme au coeur un peu de bleu.
Moi j'aime à remonter le temps,
Moi j'aime à remonter le temps,

Il me revient comme une odeur,
De cuir une banquette arrière.
Une déesse, des hauts le coeur,
Et les gauloises bleues de mon père.
J'avais treize ans dans le quartier,
J'aimais une fille aux yeux clairs,
Et j 'ai gardé à tout jamais,
L'odeur du henné de ma mère.

Si le temps passe et les années nous blessent,
Si les volets se ferment un peu.
Si le temps passe et les années nous laissent,
Si comme au coeur un peu de bleu.
Moi j'aime à remonter le temps,
Moi j'aime à remonter le temps,

To my parents, to the times gone by that will not return, so far and yet so close at the same time..
Words:
Memories come back to me,
For better or for laughter.
It's like a film to rewind,
A book open on the past
.I was ten years old in the neighborhood,
I loved the games of my fiancées,
Hopscotch game I know it's silly,
When we want to be like a boy.

If time passes and the years hurt us,
 If the shutters close a little.
 If time passes and the years leave us,
 If like in the heart there's a bit of blue.
I love to go back in time,
 I love to go back in time,

It comes back to me like a smell,
 Of leather from a back seat.
 A goddess, with a tightness in my chest,
 And my father's blue Gauloises. 
I was thirteen in the neighborhood,
 I loved a girl with bright eyes, 
And I have forever kept, 
The smell of my mother's henna.
If time passes and the years hurt us,
 If the shutters close a little.
 If time passes and the years leave us,
 If like in the heart there's a bit of blue.
I love to go back in time,
 I love to go back in time,

Les volets se ferment un peu

New song recorded tonight.

Last night I opened up the window
as streetlight stood in for the moon
across your skin a summer breeze was filtered through the trees
announced by flickered candlelight

and I wondered is this you and me asleep in childhood dreams
or just another night
are we a wishful vision cried into a pillow
after a long and bitter fight

well its a high price paid just to be here
two poor tired souls... in a golden moment

tonight I open up the window
as moonlight calls out for our dreams
across the sky I hear a voice from somewhere far away
hello and thank you for the day

and I wondered is this you and me asleep in childhood dreams
or just another night
are we a wishful vision cried into a pillow
after a long and bitter fight

well its a high price paid just to be here
two poor tired souls... in a golden moment

Golden Moment

[Intro]
You stood there with a ring and a promise
But time’s revealed the cracks inside your charm
You said you'd build her up with kindness
Now all I see is harm

[Verse 1]
You're drinking more than talking these days
And your words come sharp like razor blades
You raise your voice, and the kids all scatter
Like paper boats lost in a gale
You blame her for the life you wasted
While you're the one who walked away
From the man you swore you'd be
Back on that wedding day

[Chorus]
I'm disappointed, can’t you see?
You're not the man I hoped you’d be
You’re breaking hearts instead of chains
And pouring liquor on the flames
I see the wreckage, hear the cries
I wipe the tears from children’s eyes
You point at them, when it’s your soul that’s stained
Son… I’m just so disappointed

[Verse 2]
While your world’s falling in tatters
You treat her love like it's disposable
You treat your kids like they’re to blame
But I see through the smoke and whiskey
You're just drowning out your name

[Chorus]
I'm disappointed, can’t you see?
You're not the man I hoped you’d be
You’re breaking hearts instead of chains
And pouring liquor on the flames
I see the wreckage, hear the cries
I wipe the tears from children’s eyes
You point at them, when it’s your soul that’s stained
Son… I’m just so disappointed

[Bridge]
I gave you trust, I gave you time
I gave you room to change your mind
But now I stand here on this line
Between protector and goodbye

[Chorus – Final]
Yes, I’m disappointed, this cuts deep
You traded vows for nights of sleep
You left the mess for them to clean
You crushed their joy, you stole her dream
And if you ever want it back
You better fight, and change your track
But if you don’t… don’t leave it disjointed
Just know... I’ll always be disappointed

[Outro]
You still got time… to make it right
But tonight... I sleep with the porch light
Burning for them, not for you
You know what you need to do

Disappointed

Reflections on the life and times of an alcoholic

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise
