Well it's been awhile for me. Busy summer and a bit of creative block all around. I'm happy to share a song I wrote this weekend to reflect on how tough change can be when you're in the midst of it. So many in my life are in the midst of personal…
Here's the second song I recently decided to do with a studio recording from one I wrote and posted here a while ago as a purely vocal version. It's one of my favorites.... I hope you'll enjoy it too

Another one of my musical creations, the first one after my open heart surgery, I finally am getting more strength to sing again :-) So I decided it was high time to have a go in writing a little french number. I hope you enjoy it. Kind regards, Anna
A love song for my wife
Falling in love is wonderful, especially when it’s with you
It happens all over every day, seems the right thing to do
Falling in love is wonderful, especially when it’s with you
I can’t think of anything that I’d…
Thanks Rob for the idea.....
well Nigel he’s full of mouth
he seems to tell us all he knows what its about
but i’m afraid Nigel will always be a twat
A face of rubber and fat

he really suit athat kkk hat…
For the 48%......
this is the only reality we know
we can touch it feel it we’re the one who take the blows
but we can’t stop this world spinning
never ending it’s turning all the time
i’m getting lost in this whirlpool
swimming in…
Great song! Tough times right now the world over. I was in Surrey when the "leave" news broke and I felt exactly like the lyrics of your song. Thanks for this one!
Putting my own stank on a cover from another mother. Jeff is brilliant and so is Stevie Wonder who wrote and George Martin who produced Jeff's Grammy winning version. What Greatness!
This is just beautiful, Johnny. Such a cool arrangement. And my deepest thanks for your kind comments recently on my music. Thanks for always listening!!!!
Here is a *MOJITO* Fueled version of "TV Dinner" that we recorded last Monday night in my Basement.

I recently got back in touch with an old friend/guitarist who had moved across the country nearly 20 yrs ago. We discussed maybe doing a collab so I whipped up this original instrumental track and he laid down the lead melody guitar part.
