Ah man - those images in the video shot me back - exactly like the place I come from.  Mind you - I'd always thought it was endless palm trees and blue skies for you lot from the deep South.... :)  Fantastic nostalgia guys - beautifully done.

Love the nostalgic feel to it. Wonderfully constructed.

Nice tune, Dave. Classic songwriting. Great work. Reminds me of Cat Stevens. x

A touching tribute to the fine men and women who are now part of our industrial past.

Wondered

The music is mostly instrumental, the soundtrack of a walk in the street.

I walk the streets, I see the houses and I wonder who lives behind the walls

Behind The Walls Instrumental

My friends with the "Muse and Method" creative challenge have issued another prompt. This time the topic is "March".

This track was built with two samples from my personal collection of field recordings. The 4-beat rhythm loop is the percussion section of the Shawnee Mission North High School marching band, recorded at the Overland Park Fall Festival in 2011. The horn sound is an air horn on an antique steam tractor, recorded at the Northwest Michigan Engine and Thresher Show, Buckley, Michigan way back in 1989 and played back through a keyboard sampler.

Awakening

Lost

I am lost without your love
I need patience from above
To feel you near
Time is ticking, life is short
Thank you for your great support
Oh I feel loved

It is more than physical to me
Baby, baby can't you see
I love your heart
I hope to see your lovely face
I am in need of your embrace
Your tender touch

Oohoo...

I hope someday you'll come my way
You are welcome any day
I"ll wait for you
Please meet me face to face
'Cause I'm in need your your embrace
I am feeling blue
It is more than physical to me
Baby, baby can't you see
I love your soul
I hope to see your lovely face
I am in need of your embrace
Your tender touch

Oohoo....

I am lost without your love
I need patience from above
To feel you near
Time is ticking, life is short
Thank you for your great support
Oh I feel loved

It is more than physical to me
Baby, baby can't you see
I love your heart
I hope to see your lovely face
I am in need of your embrace
Your tender touch

Oohoo....

Sometimes need to finish the Chapter
Close the Book Open a New one

Sometimes Need to Clean up 
Refresh our mind

Start as in Spring

For a better Being


Sometimes got to change the disck
put on a next one
and pull it up high

Start up again Start Up again
Start as in Spring

Sometimes Got to leave behind 
heavy memories
got to get future souvenirs

Start up again Start Up again
Start up again Start Up again

a New Beginning

For a better Being

Clean up 
Refresh our mind
Remix our life

Start up again Start Up again
Start as in Spring
a New Beginning

START UP AGAIN  Vocals for Collabs

Written by David Cooper and Ralph Donkin.

Song remembering the old industrial past of my home town of Sunderland in the north east of England.  This happened to a lot of towns and villages where the old staple industries disappeared.

Lyrics by Ralph Donkin

Where are the ships
Stood side by side
Berthed at the docks
Waiting for high tide
Where are the men in their ragged clothes?
Where are they now nobody knows?

Where is the pit
Where they hewed our coal
Dirty face men
Down a dirty great hole
Where is the humour their adversity bore
There is no humour, they are no more

Chorus

What is the future, where is the past
Nothing’s forever, nothing will last
It’s all changing, nothing’s the same
Are we just pawns in life’s little game

Where is the brewery
And the smell of the hops
Where is the Town Hall
Where is the clock
Where are the factories, Where have they gone
All razed to the ground, Gone one by one

Where are the places I used to go
Where are the faces I used to know?
Where are the Maisies, where are the Jeans

Where Is The Past

I am an unsigned singer/songwriter from Sunderland in the north east UK.

I have been writing songs for a few years now and have CD's on various web sites such as CD Baby, Itunes , Spotify etc.  My goal is to write good songs and hopefully have come up with a few along the way.

I love wring and recording songs – it gives me great pleasure staring from nothing but a blank piece of paper and finally coming up with something that sounds good.

I have collaborated with other people while being on Soundcloud – my long-time partner Ralph Donkin writes exceedingly good lyrics and between us have come up with many a good song.

My other partner Glen Granthem from Sacramento in USA has also been inspirational in my recordings – he is a very talented musician and producer and has brought life to many of my songs that otherwise would have been second rate.  We also have collaborated on many songs.

I have written songs with other people and I thank them from the bottom of my heart for their endeavours.

Thank you for all of you that have listened and commented on my songs and those who will in the future.  I am very grateful that you stopped by and listened – hope you have enjoyed what you have heard.

Again many thanks and good luck for the future in your musical endeavours.
