oooh everyone is soooo talented.Your stuff sounds great rubthabuddha. Love your stuff Juzza, you sound a wee bit like Jamie Cullum, great stuff.

Thanks Tink!!!


Is Jamie Cullum the jazz guy who did the radiohead cover?

yeah he did quite a good cover of High and Dry

Oh yea, I saw that dude playing his piano and he was hitting the wood too and had this amazing funky, percussion, piano vibe going on...


My stuff really remind you of Cullum Tink? That's cool...

i wrote this song a while back, i was a song i wrote as i got into my friends head, he was enfatuated by this small town girl and wanted to show her his dreams and how big the world is, and he wanted to take her to new york...the guy had plans. so i wrote idonyc... I Dream Of New York City...
You used to have stars in your eyes
It hurts me to see them fade out
But they sparkled tonight
As we dreamed of <?:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:City><st1:place>New York City</st1:place></st1:City>
And then just for one moment
We were not even here at all.
<?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
From the small town rain in April
Through to <st1:place>Brooklyn</st1:place> in the Fall
We’ll leave this town,
That’s holding down

With wings on which we flew so high
And I
Wanna take you to <st1:City><st1:place>New York City</st1:place></st1:City> were we’ll cry
And those we left behind will wonder why

Not that we’re torn in two
Just we relate to different situations
Bound only by our youth
Don’t keep yourself from darkness
When the light shines on the truth

Keep faith in what you know
Even though your soul is burnt out
But it glimmered tonight
As we dreamed of <st1:City><st1:place>New York City</st1:place></st1:City>
And then just for one moment
We were not even here at all.

This is a chorus (not a whole song) but I think it's pretty good.

*Clears throat*

All you people fighting my war
To me it's just a gigantic bore.
All you people not wanting to fight
Well. My black diamond shoes are on to tightEdited by: Diarmo

can we get the whole song? sounds really good.

Yes he did indeed, he has also covered Pharrall Williams' Frontin'. The guy is insane he jumps all over the place.

Do you wanna come?


The road I'm on is a funny one, do you wanna come?
you were there, in a lucid dream, or so it seems
I saw my future, without the lies, behind your eyes
the stars were there, shining bright in your vanilla hair

when we fall down, does hope fade or am I stronger
cause all I know without you here, I'm going under
do you wanna come?
do you wanna come?


The road I'm on will never do, without you
so come on, into my day, it will be OK
I saw my future without the lies, behind your eyes
the road I'm on is a funny one do you wanna come?

when we fall down, does hope fade or am I stronger
cause all I know without you here, I'm going under
do you wanna come?
do you wanna come?

oi i love that

Lonely Road


heard you on the phone last night
when you thought that I was sleeping
looking back I should'a known
how could I be so blind
seems we have a different view
on how things have been going
you can't say what makes you stay
your heart or your mind


it's been going wrong too long
can I change your mind
and should I even try
oh no, dunno how to mend your heart
hell I don't even know why


but it's a lonely road
lonely road
it's a lonely road
lonely road


so now I'm paranoid
I jump at every shadow
always watching what I say
scared to know the truth
I know I'm losing you
and I don't know how to change it
guess I thought we'd always be
together til the end


it's been going wrong too long
can I change your mind
and should I even try
oh no, dunno how to mend your heart
girlI don't even know why


but it's a lonely road
lonely road
it's a lonely road
lonely roadEdited by: Juzzza

wow, every song/poem i've read so far is brilliant so i think i'd continue reading for a few days, id like to put up one of my own just to get a reaction, cause friends will always tell u stuff is good even if its sh*t, so when i eventually putone up id like for ppl to say how they really thought about it, like well i really don't like that and that wud be grand. but i think thats also why im delaying, truth hurts sometimes :) k, so far i really like "sold" but everything is wicked. ttfn

well i havent written any songs yet(playing guitar bout a year) but i did have a girlfriend tell me once that if i loved her i would write her a poem and here it is:


roses are red, violets are blue,


i cant write poetry, not even for you.


we havent talked since...no sense of humor that one.

amor vincit omnia

"nowhere home"



she is paranoid

changing clocks by the hour

rummaging her eyes

for tears lost at sea



she begs the ground

to unencumber her raven hair

petrified of the past

and it's walls



all she chooses to see

are clouds of retribution

thick as ice on her

fingertips



all she really believes

is that her blood is made of glory

lost against herself

and time



though we are rust

and maybe dead stars

though we are bones

and disheveled dreams

i will still say,

"i promise i'll wait for you,

my broken stone."



midnight roads

accompany her ashen face

painting her heart

a crimson moon



she tears herself

grieving empty promises

a lotus buried in petals of silk



though we are rust

and we may be dead stars

though we are bones

and disheveled dreams

i will still say,

"i promise i'll wait for you,

my broken stone."



and i know this dawn will find you

lost again in fleeting memories

i'll bend my will to shake these

ties that have bound

you and i



because

though we are rust

and we may be dead stars

and though we are bones

disheveled dreams

i will still say,

"i promise i'll wait for you,

my broken stone.



i'll wait.

i'll wait."

Thank you ru-doll, if you like 'Sold' PM me your address and I will send you a copy (and 9 other tracks!!!)

Like home (written and recorded before Norah Jones released her album [img]smileys/smiley17.gif[/img])


I'm sitting in the station, waiting for the train to take me somewhere else
I'm sitting in my bedroom, picking up a new tune tryin'a sing something else
I kinda got to thinking of you and your great smile
and I remember, the yellow sand, the ocean spray
and I remember, you held my hand, the way we lay


the salty wind, the breaking morning, it feels like home, it feels like home
I miss your smile, the sense of fallin', it feels like home, it feels like home


I try to find some patience but all I have is this loneliness
I wonder if you're feeling just as helpless as me too
and are you in station waiting for a train to take you somewhere else


and I remember, the yellow sand, the ocean spray
and I remember, you held my hand, the way we lay


the salty wind, the breaking morning, it feels like home, it feels like home
I miss your smile, the sense of fallin', it feels like home, it feels like home


(mental acoustic explosion follows vocals, cello, guitar and strings mating like rhino's [img]smileys/smiley5.gif[/img])

she's such a ripoff! there's a song on her latest album called 'what am i to you' - coincidence? i think nooooot!she bought O and thought 'there's a great title for a song, what i am to you, i'll just change it a bit, nobody'll notice' but HA! She forgot to consider us eskimos... we've got her now!

Don't we just make fools of ourselves


Once in a while something will ignite your fire and
leave you burning up just like a fool

once in a while you must do something for
something just for. just for you

So don't you worry about this boy
no don't you even worry
'cause I'll be fine on my own
and don't we just make fools of ourselves
and don't we just make fools of ourselves



once in a while something will ignite your soul
and leave you burning up just like a fool

once in a while you must do something for, but without trust we are, we are doomed

So don't you worry about this boy
no don't you even worry
'cause I'll be fine on my own
and don't we just make fools of ourselves
and don't we just make fools of ourselves

bloody hell juzza, you just posted about 4 albums worth of stuff... i hope you've copywritten them.[img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]

I don't remember what street we were on,
when we were getting beat while the law looked on.

hey JT, i haven't been here for a few days, im crap at computers and would love to here "sold" but i don't know how to PM my address?? any help suggestions would be appreciated [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

No bother ru-doll, email it to me at justin@justinthorne.com

Curses

the urge is strong
it's calling me
it's whispered on the wind
it is strong
i'll never be the same again
I need to feel that wrath in me
pumping through my veins
oh to be free

so don't call me a fool
'cause I'm lost in you
lost in you, curses


how I miss her sweet embrace
the colour of her hair
I miss her kiss upon my
lips that miss the ghost of her
i'll never want like that again
I'm lost
oh to be free


so don't call me a fool
'cause I'm lost in you
lost in you, curses

----------------------------------
time just slips by these days
the people that i love carry on
i am not hurt by that
i am not scorned
it is just my time
it is just my turn


lost my love ten years ago
the match was lit too many times
i do feel lost without
i do feel cut in half
it was just his time


if my legs don't walk anymore
and if my mouth won't talk anymore
then these lips they'd say i love you
je t'adore
je t'adore


you will be missed on that day
when we take you to your place
tears will be shed
and our love will be there
but there's no other way
we will feel lost without
we will feel cut in half
we'll say it's your time
we'll say it's your turn


and your legs won't walk anymore
and your mouth won't talk anymore
but your lips will say i love you
je t'adore
je t'adore
ma grand-mere
ma grand-mere

corey thats a brilliant song about your grandma, well done

I'm far too scared to put any of my songs up on a forum, lol!


Oh, Justin, that song is fantastic!


Everyones lyrics are so great, makes mine look like a 8 year olds diary!

i may as well post up one of mine...

Help me out, I want to be free
Help me out, I don’t wanna be me,
Cos we’re all part of some weird sin,
We don’t know what we’re living in,

Tie your shoes and don’t grow your hair,
Stay in school and isn’t it rude to stare,
You grow up and find the world has changed,
You try try to be somebody but not the one you’ve made,

We don’t need what we’ve been told,
Our thoughts and minds can be bought or sold,
The TV’s on but nobodies home,
Your try to be somebody but you’re not alone.

The pictures taken but your out of focus,
You’re staring hard but trying not to notice,
You take it out, of the picture frame,
You try to tell yourself that you are not to blame.

We don’t need what we’ve been told,
Our thoughts and minds can be bought or sold,
The TV’s on but nobodies home,
Your try to be somebody but you’re not alone.

That's really great, Jeweller!


How do you guys write the lyrics? Past experiences, made up situations, with music, without music, then set it to music? It'd be intresting to hear. I have my weird way of doing it, only problem is, I usually think of lyrics in the weirdest places, then forget them, lol![img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]Also, do any of your lyrics you've posted have music?


I'm off to the beach today, sure there will be some inspiration there! If I write any thing worth posting, I might post them later...lol![img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

eyeliner&amp;glitte,


All my lyrics have music, if you have Realplayer on your PC, you can listen to the song above, 'Curses' and a few other tunes at my Website... If you don't have Realplayer PM me your address and I will send you a copy of my CD and that goes for any eskimo friend... Including Damo and Lisa [img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]


Ignore Cold water and The other side though, the host is rubbish and they take ages to download, all the other songs are hosted by Garageband though, which streams the tunes no problem.
