And oh, life goes way too fast - I look to the past and all i see is you
and you were my shining star - better than the last - I better watch my breath
its fading fast - I know that you are here but you seem to disappear in all of my despair - I die again
I have to face the truth - that everything I am I am because of you
and you I know you feel it too cause everything that we've become we've never come undone
And oh this alcohol is killing me - sometimes i drink so much I cannot see - and you never bat an eye - stand by my side - no matter how rocky the ride 
and oh --- I know that your are here but you seem to disappear in all of my despair - I die again 
and I have to face the truth - that everything I am I am because of you - and you I know you feel it tooo- cause everything that we've become we've never come undone
remembering  when life was oh so simple back in the days
now I spend all my nights looking down at your grave 
its oh so dark and desolate this hell blowing in my face
I need you to have my back just one more time
and oh I know that you are not here but you seem to reappear in all of my despair I die again
and I have to face the truth that every thing I am I am because of you

Because of you (I die again)

TIMELESS

Wally Bartfay

Ball And Chain (RADIO VERSION)

A Lifetime Away [piano improvisation]

Katrina was written at the time when the hurricane devastated several American states in 2005, killing over a thousand people. At the same time, the U.S. government refused to sign the Kyoto Protocol, an agreement aimed at controlling greenhouse gas emissions, under the banner of development and progress. Nature is relentless.

Katrina (Pablo Deablo)

Oh my friend, from the Moon;
I send news to you;
Everything is strange, you have to see;
The man has no soul, there's nothing to be done.
They ask me every day, what is my walk...
My haircut, what am I going to drink...
It's been more than 15 days since a single drop has dripped from the faucet...
Oh my clever friend;
Jumped on the rocket, at the right moment;
Here it’s chaos, 42 degrees;
The sun that shines, burns and drives you mad;
The world stopped, the "little black guy" disappeared...
It's God's fault, man evolves...
My pillow sends emails, I’d trade everything for your bread with butter...
Mother Nature is relentless, has no distinction;
Kills snakes and leopards, turns day into darkness;
Protocol assassinated, signed I want no;
Your message has been delivered, in smoke and hurricane;
Oh my friend, just hanging around;
Makes money and lives well;
What do you see? Brazil on TV...
Winning its millions, burning its lungs...
And the people keep watching you up there on the moon...
Waiting for the carnival on national television...
At the end of the year, there will be another presidential election.

Katrina foi escrita na epoca em que o furacão arrasou alguns estados americanos em 2005, matando mais de mil pessoas. Na mesma epoca, o governo americano se recusoou a assinar o protocolo de Kyoto, pacto de controle de emissao de gases do efeito estufa, sob a chancela do desenvolvimento e do progresso. A naureza é implacável.

Katrina

Ó meu amigo, da Lua;
Mando notícias a você;
Está tudo estranho, você tem que ver;
O homem não tem alma, não há o que fazer
Me perguntam todo dia, qual é o meu andar...
O meu corte de cabelo, o que é que eu vou tomar...
Já tem mais de 15 dias que não pinga uma só gota da torneira...
Ó meu amigo, esperto;
Pulou no foguete, no momento certo;
Aqui ta um caos, 42 graus;
O sol que ilumina, queima e alucina;
O mundo parou, o “pretinho” sumiu...
A culpa é de Deus, o homem evolui...
Meu travesseiro manda e-mail, troco tudo pelo seu pão com manteiga...
Mãe natureza é implacável, não tem distinção;
Mata cobra e leopardo, faz do dia escuridão;
Assassinado o protocolo, assinado quero não;
Já foi dado seu recado, em fumaça e furacão;
O meu amigo, a toa;
Ganha dinheiro e vive numa boa;
Daí o que vê? O Brasil na TV...
Ganhando seus milhões, queimando seus pulmões...
E o povo continua, te olhando ai na lua...
Esperando o carnaval em cadeia nacional...
No fim do ano vai ter mais uma eleição para presidente.

Katrina

Musical Attractions is a set of musical experimental tracks with my Galactic Princess Damga.
The wonderful La Gazelle wrote and said a beautiful text, on our music. It's a great honor for us to put her poetry to music.
Second track - Sensuelles Et Minérales
Music : HyLGZ22, Damga 
Lyrics and voice : La Gazelle
"Regards croisés à contre temps
J'ai senti tes yeux sur mes hanches
Nuit d'été suffocante
je me veux entre tes mains ta puissance
A une autre époque je n'osais lever les yeux trop embarrassée,
J'avais peur de te parler.
J'aimerais résister pour pouvoir provoquer encore
Ces premières étincelles.
Tu voudrais que je cède
Qu'il n'y ait entre nous que l'espace de nos souffles
Que je sente que tu manques d'air
A proximité de ma bouche
Quand tes lèvres ont effleuré mon épaule nue
j'ai su que nos énergies traceraient les contours de la passion.
Le long de ma colonne j'ai ressenti l'envie de te serrer
De me coller contre ton buste et d'être à toi..."

So Beautiful

🎸💥 WATCH ME FLOW 💥🎸

Step into the booth, spitfire scorchin'
Rhymes tight, minds light, thoughts are torchin'
Flowin' through the mic, lyrical contortion
Planetary paths, call me the rap Newton
Game on smash, like Hulk when he's smashin'
Cash in the stash, kinda brash with the flashin'

Woke up with the cipher, scrambled eggs
Mind state, deft, no hobble on pegs
Poppin' off at the lip, sizzle sizzle on kegs
Spit raw truth from my Solar Plex'
Bars hit harder, than a villain vexed
In my lane, flexin' like a T-Rex

Watch me flow, rhythm like a superstar
In the zone, bright flame, shining afar
Turn it up now, break the Richter scale
Hands up high, it's a rap tale

Puttin' in the work, grind till the noon
Lyrics so sharp, cut through like a Rune
Grit in my gut, asphalt and tunes
Living for the night, underwolf howls at the moon

Fortune in my grip, ain't no subtle
From concrete jumble to urban bubble
Bass line thump, makin' speakers crumble
Hustle in my blood, never been humble

Fortune in my grip, ain't no subtle
From concrete jumble to urban bubble
Bass line thump, makin' speakers crumble
Hustle in my blood, never been humble

Fortune in my grip, ain't no subtle
From concrete jumble to urban bubble
Bass line thump, makin' speakers crumble
Hustle in my blood, never been humble

spitfire scorchin'
Rhymes tight, minds light, thoughts are torchin'
Flowin' through the mic, lyrical contortion
Planetary paths, call me the rap Newton
Game on smash, like Hulk when he's smashin'
Cash in the stash, kinda brash with the flashin'

Watch me flow, rhythm like a superstar
In the zone, bright flame, shining afar
Turn it up now, break the Richter scale
Hands up high, it's a rap tale

Woke up with the cipher, scrambled eggs
Mind state, deft, no hobble on pegs
Poppin' off at the lip, sizzle sizzle on kegs
Spit raw truth from my Solar Plex'
Bars hit harder, than a villain vexed
In my lane, flexin' like a T-Rex

Watch me flow, rhythm like a superstar
In the zone, bright flame, shining afar
Turn it up now, break the Richter scale
Hands up high, it's a rap tale

Hello Old Barstool

Occasionally I'll be posting short clips of an isolated track or focusing on a specific section/detail in a previously uploaded tune. In this one, it's a funky little breakdown that appears in a couple other songs. 

The clavinet & drums were previously used in 'Scaing the Riverbank' by the Eclectic Collective:

MUSIC BIO FOR DR. WALLY J. BARTFAY
Dr. Wally Bartfay is a retired Professor and former Associate Dean (August, 2024) for the Faculty of Health Sciences at Ontario Tech University in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada.  He was also affectionately known as the “Rock N’ Prof” by his students because he often played original songs that he has written prior to the commence of lectures to create certain vibes and buzzes in his classes. His music has appeared on Euro Indie Music Chart lists top 1; World Indie Music Chart lists top 1 and 2; BWNR music list top 5, and the US Top 20 Show- Weekly Pulse of Music at No. 18. In 2024, he had 3 No. 1 Indie hits on the Euro Indie Network Music Charts and World Indie Top 100 Music Chart lists with collaborator Stephen Wrench: 1. You're My Beautiful; 2. Little Sunshine Girl and 3. Cherry Hill Gal.  Stephen has been a 6x Grammy Awardee and has won over 50 Gold and Platinum records throughout his career journey that spans 5 decades now. 
I have been invited to appear on several radio stations, music podcasts, YouTube music channels and interviews with music magazines during the past year.  Examples include B-line Entertainment; Phil Kratz Radio Show; Blackdog Indie Country Radio; James Cox Show; Empowerment Divas Network; The Anything Goes Podcast with Duzzy Clayton; Curtis Johnson Music Podcase; Kayden Gordon Show- Today’s Best Country Mix; Radio interview on the Jeff Rickett Show, Country KIX 96.5 FM; Paul Mash TV; Playin’ On Music Row with Fran, and an interview with Fanbase Music Magazine to name but a few.
Ever since Wally was a little lad, he wanted to play the electric guitar and make music that creates smiles on people’s faces. He can remember playing his imaginary electric "air guitar" in his parents’ basement to various rock and country songs for hours on end. He got his first guitar when he turned 14 after taking on various odds jobs including pumping gas on weekends and cutting lawns.  He quickly learned to play it on his very own, along with several other instruments. Wally has also done research related to the benefits of music therapy as a nonpharmacological intervention with patients with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia.  He got interested in researching the clinical benefits of music as medicine after his father was diagnosed with vascular dementia following a series of strokes that left him bed bound in a nursing home.  Ironically, this is the same nursing home that he used to put on volunteer Christmas concerts for during his youth in his community. He is passionate about song writing and his songs often reflect personal experiences and challenges that he has faced over the years. Each song contains components of his genuine lived experiences, heart, and soul as an artist.
