Spare a thought for those with nothing this Christmas..... Homeless with no family.........and no one to help.......
CHRISTMAS ALONE (Lyrics)
Nobody is listening no body knocking on my door
nobody is near me nobody wants me
i’m nobody’s…
I am alone, I am alone.
No one comes to me, I froze.
But I do not give up, I know:
I came here alone,
and I'll leave from here alone.
...and: only if alone
I'm destined to reach my peak.
Who am I?

New one from me. It's ended up as a bit of a "crying into yer beer at Bob's Country Bunker" sort of song lol...
I've been sat on these lyrics in some form or another for absolutely years. I first wrote them one very dark night a few years after…

Ilesa is a city located in the south west of Nigeria. This is a traditional rhythm pattern of the same name - but I'm not sure of the significance of the name.

Mark Morriss has written some really witty triple rhymes in a slightly country fashion, and I wanted to try it too. Although I am not sure if I succeeded, I had fun - and got…
03 – Meteorites. Written 2nd/3rd Feb. Recorded 3rd Feb.
Inspired by the film ‘Stardust’ where our hero meets a (literal) fallen star. The painful low vocals were particularly fun, and their emotional cracking was acting rather than the fact…

Love the Eastern feel in the music. Your spoken word delivery is right on as usual!
nice work
I love that music. It sounds sort of Chinese, and that's fab in my book. Perfect delivery as usual Regs!
Ah, the vocal that goes with it. Wonderful lyrics as well.
Wow! A real cry from the heart!
Very sad and even more so because it's true. An excellent song.
Oh I see, this is the same one with vox. A sorry tale but ..... Very well done Reg.
Oh, I like it! What a lovely melody.
You certainly gave it the Reg treatment. Good one!
Very clever...harrowing lyrics against a beautiful Christmassy backdrop...thought-provoking.
Thanks for making this happen!
Beautiful! Lovely build up of warm festive layers!
Such a stirring melody, sung with conviction, Regs!
Shades of Meat Loaf in the vocal ...which is fine by me.....good oh Jarvo
ELP like version of Jerusalem...........with a bucolic vocal ...sounds like "angry of the Cotswolds"....and guess what ...I like it !! Encore Jarvo
fun,fun,fun......the banjiano is cool too ! Jarvo
always best to be up front and say what you think.... Good tune ,good tune.... Jarvo
its so sad when people are two faced - great tune
