===== Lyrics =====

“One of a kind”
But not cutting off my ear yet
One of a kind
Just mostly trying to make it
“Almost wild”
A fauve who’s trying to fit in
“Messy child”
The half friend of oppression
I teeter on the edges

“Force of nature”
But never quite exploding
So much pressure
From these wild ideas
“joie de vivre”
(joie de vivre and bon vivant)
But something to contend with
(something good until it’s not)
“Force to follow”
But I don’t want to want to lead just yet
(joie de vivre until I’m not)

A messy child
The half son of oppression
Almost wild
A fauve just trying to fit in

“Larger than life”
And such a giant person
That's what he said
But he meant it in a good way

The weight of the normal
Less or more a deviation
A goddess
A statue melting on the edges
I teeter on the edges

The weight of the normal
Less or more a deviation
A goddess, a statue melting on the edges
I teeter on the edges

Almost Wild (with Janine Levinson)

The Ghost In Love III

This song is about losing my wonderful big brother when I was a young man. He bought me 'The White Fender Strat' and said quietly through his smile "No excuses now...". Thanks forever bro, this is for you as always.

SMOKE

Growing up, looking up
I have never had my toast buttered on both sides
I started crying the day 
I watched my father clearing the overgrown weeds at the top of the garden and realised 
And realised
That wasn’t what he was doing
Ooh no

It was a still day 
So still
It was a still life
And the smell of the smoke never quite left our clothes
Five years
And another
Five years

There was a silence 
Where my beautiful dead brother still lived between us 
And that quietness wasn’t burned with the weeds

It was a still day
It was a still life 
So still
And the smell of the smoke never quite left our clothes
Five years
Another
Five years

Digging the sod in Donegal 
Praying for muscle, bunched like a ball 
Sweat and pride loved standing tall 
Anticipating 
Eye-watering 
Peat-stove fire 
That would 
Warm 
Cook 
And flavour our bones

It was a still day 
Still day
It was a still life 
Still life
And the smell of the smoke never quite left our clothes

Another
Five years
And another
Five years...

Five years
Tick tock
Five years
My father lost his sense of smell and his pulse in cenotaph central heating
Five years
And my orphaned senses 
Five years
Still feel that fire

And smell that smoke...

MUTUAL

With gratitude and respect to Kohei Uchimura, who is retiring.

This song was inspired by Kohei Uchimura who is a gymnastics athlete at Tokyo 2020 Olympic.
But maybe you can sing this for your hero, for your friends, for your lovers, for your parents….
Whatever it is, this is a song of gratitude and respect for the person you admire.

[Lyrics]

Cause I Saw You Were There

Do you know why I could come here?
Do you know what made me to come here?
It’s you. 
Cause I saw you were there. 
You were there.
Yes, it’s you. 
Cause I saw you were there. 
You were there.

引退される内村航平選手へ、感謝と敬意をこめて。

体操の内村航平選手の東京オリンピックを見て、この曲が生まれました。
でもたぶんこの曲は、あなたのヒーローのため、あなたの友人のため、あなたの恋人のため、あなたの両親のための曲でもあります…。
それが何であれ、あなたの憧れの人への感謝と敬意を歌ったものです。

[歌詞]

僕がなぜここに来ることが出来たのか知っていますか？
何が僕をここに連れて来たのか知っていますか？
あなたです。 
あなたがそこにいたのを見たからです。 
あなたはそこにいた。
そう、それはあなたです。 
あなたがそこにいたのを見たからです。 
あなたはそこにいました。

might be about general regrets or old loves or even international grievances or just something like what Sir Paul sang "Fixing a hole..." but in this case it's NOT Fixing A Hole...!

Mazalini - 'Lost reality'

Competition entry for the Professional Composers Community 2020 August Sad Music Contest.

I had a really hard time with this competition theme. This is my fifth attempt, and the first idea that didn't just end up depressingly uninteresting. Unfortunately, I didn't come up with it until the weekend before the deadline, so I only had two days, but that's enough for a piece like this, once there is a proper idea to build on.

The vision behind this piece is rather abstract... "Where do we go from here?" I suppose that's how I feel about life in general right now, but not exactly in a way that inspires creativity, which is probably why I had such a hard time with this.
