Original instrumental by Mahan Mahan  https://soundcloud.com/mahan-mahan

Mahan sent me this instrumental track entitled "Janinerator."  Hmm.  I wonder who he really intended it for...   Anyway, I sang over it, totally unsure. It's really different for me. But here it is. Thank you Mahan!

Look the Other Way

Life before was just a bore
Sitting in a café with my
Laptop, looking at the door
And sipping on a latte as        

My head was swaying back and forth
To the rhythm of a mixtape
And my heels were tapping on the floor 
Waiting for my big break

I was thinking swiping left and right
On the faces on my cell phone I’d be
Looking up at mister right
Til’ you stepped into my safe zone

Look the other way
(hey, how are you?)
Look the other way  
(love your picture!)
Look the other way
(in your latte)
Look the other way
(goes my finger)
(I’m a terrible person )

And I’m Falling up
I’m Flying down
The floor is rising up
And I am falling down 

Memories get in the way  
When I go into that weird place, I just
Lock my heart and lock the door
And hide inside my suitcase

And my head is swaying back and forth
In the hallway of a stranger
With my necklace lying on the floor
Even now It feels like danger

Look the other way
Look the other way  
Look the other way
Look the other way
I’m a terrible person

Anastasiya Ihnatovich is one of the best talents to be found on SC. I had the privilege of being able to sing to the notes of her splendid piano. I recommend you to listen to her music here:

Below the lyrics of our song together

Time goes so slower
missing the one you love
You are my prison
But I don't want to escape
No, I don't feel alone
causes sadness
                                                                     
Is always with me

I still love you
But you don't care about me
You don't care about me
About me
I hide my pain with a smile
For you
It's true
I can't be strong all the time
And so I gave in to the pain
and I'm sure that my woman
My only woman is you

LAPSE 1 Anastasiya Ihnatovich vocal version by Paolo Pieraccini

This is a song that I thought was about someone else, but it's more likely just about me. 

lyrics

Looks like you've got everything you want
there ain't a single thing left that you need
you're flowing through life like the sea
boy you don't see the woods for the trees

I wouldn't decline no invitation 
to go smacking your head against the pavement
flick through warning signs but you don't read
boy you don't see the woods for the trees

keep pushing all our worries around
try to bury them deep underground
you better keep that spade close at hand
so we can dig out your head from the sand

when I burst into your surgery seeking remedies
you called the alarm
now I've swallowed all the pills you prescribed
I'm telling you I want to be discharged


Keep giving all the people your time
your family said you've got an altruistic mind
but they won't tell you when you're so sick
or that you're life's greatest fucking hypocrite

I know I don't got too much education
but I deciphered your charm from fabrication
I used to bite at the slightest provocation 
now I'll just growl and consider each situation

I may not have everything I want
but I got from you what I need
You ain't got nothing left for me
boy you don't see the woods from the trees

recorded at home on my tascam 8 track

Woods For The Trees (I'm Alright Jack)

A fictitious competition where 99 of the 100 competitors in a squiggling competition perish. Somewhat inspired by the Dancing Plague of 1518 and Shirley Jackson's short story "The Lottery".

The original version had more vocals, but a decent portion of them were scrapped for the reupload.

Sinny: percussion (shakers, caxixi, cabasa, tambourines, triangle, finger cymbals, cowbells, jam block, rototoms, djembe, vibraslap, helix bowl, The Night Cricket, brake drum, slit drum, frame drum, flexatone, ratchet, thunder tubes, xylophone, marimba, orchestral chimes); drum kit, kalimba, synthesizers, dobro, samba whistle, bulb horn, sound sticks, vase, chair, voices; synth, drum, and percussion programming

In the Land of Autumn

I like many am shocked and appalled at what is unfolding before us. In the midst of this darkness I salute the people who are opening their hearts and offering assistance to the refugees from this disastrous conflict.

Here are some UK links to appeals providing humanitarian aid. I'm sure each country has equivalent appeals happening now.

Empathy For The Agony

Sliffer

From the moment I heard the first notes of Dean Massicotte's stunning guitar composition 'Into the sun', I was blown away. I was so pleased that Dean graciously allowed me to add some vocals. For me, his music inspires a sense of optimism and positivity. Have a listen to his amazing work -
