Everything you’ve ever believed…
Well Reg is struggling can he find that belief in himself or not…….
Belief
Sat at the bar wishing again on a dream
Head floating into space
I got my eyes closed to the scene
Cause I know I sit here in disgrace
Another drink another whiskey…
I was watching the breeze in the trees and it got me to thinking ........

I look into the trees and I see that the breeze is blowing and I’m beginning to freeze
Cause the wintertime is coming cause the leaves have started blowing…

Another collab with Paul Chapman (Chaperzee) from the other side .....
Nothing here
Is this all you had to say
When you talked to me today
I can’t see the games you play
Is it that you with your minds astray
I stand here in dismay…
Perhaps the longest intro in music history but well worth the wait. The actual song is only about 48 seconds long but who can complain with the soothing voice of Mondo leading us in ?????!!!???

improvisation with pianoteq and hollywood strings
I am feeling like all of my improvisations sound the same again. I probably need to devote even more time to scoring - and building instruments.

Do you see that girl? Do you see that boy?
Walking hand in hand? They're on top of the world.
Can you see that boy? Can you see that girl?
Kissing in the park. They're on top of the world.
I can see that girl. I can see that boy.

Reach the top and your half way up...
You didn’t see your rise, and Lost your way.....
Looking down on the world your tears fall...
You Missed the Beauty of the climb.

she will smother you with all her love
take you by the hand and drown you with passion
she could lead the blind astray

That's what they think became of me
A foolish walk along the cliff when he was drunk…
This started out as an acoustic piece that turned out kinda bluesy.
Inspired by current events.
