Here's another dark and mysterious track from the very talented Emma Ruth Rundle. Excellent!

Staying Power

I commented on one of your songs way back. Hopefully the forum gets more traffic now

I'm remembering the very charming and elegant Sara Lane, who played Elizabeth 'Liz' Grainger on the hit western series The Virginian. The image below shows Sara in the 1966 episode Girl on the Glass Mountain.

Hi everybody,
Hello everyone, real or virtual, present or gone... This is one of my favorite songs. I had fun thinking about it, singing it, and putting it together, and also making the video. I hope you enjoy it.

I'm happy with the result because, as you know, I never use AI and that makes me proud of what I create by myself, a way of working that teaches me always something new.

Be well



Your strange love
kills me every day
a little more

There are some days
that you love me
there are some nights
that you push me away

Yes, no, no no no yes,
no no, yes yes yes yes

What can I do when you are not you

I am dying in your kisses
in your eyes
in your hands
in your breath and in your arms,

like a daisy dies
in the hands
of those who look for love   x2

and the days when you are sad
my dreams melt like a paper
in the water of your sadness

[Verse 1]
He drifted in from the silver streets
Wore his best midnight smile
Lookin' for an easy mark
Schooled in shooting down hearts
His gaze landed on my jaded eyes

[Verse 2]
I exposed his disguise
Saw through every rehearsed line
Cuffed his killer streak
I'm a valentine, not a victim
So I pulled him in then whispered
Good try
And walked out into the neon night


I wanted "noir vibes" and wondered if I pulled it off.
Here's how I roughly wanted it to sound like:

So I'm guessing they're an outsider of sorts, not fitting into society but learning to accept their situation. I think it's well writen, but also has a unique structure and am curious how it pans out when turned into a song. I also really liked the line "one foot in one foot out", it has a certain ring to it. Is it the hook line you had in mind?

Hey all, I'm just someone who loves to write lyrics but knows very little music theory, but hope that I'd get good enough to perform someday. Nice to meet you all.

The very impressive and talented Emily Linge performed a nice cover of a Supertramp hit from 1979. Cool!

The Logical Song

Thanks Melroy, appreciate your feedback,

So May It Secretly Begin is a 1987 jazz fusion song by the Pat Metheny Group. It's a mid-tempo, contemplative piece that was one of many tracks by the group featured on The Weather Channel as the local forecasts scrolled. Its parent album, Still Life (Talking), topped the Billboard Jazz Albums chart at No. 1 for the year in 1987 and earned a Grammy Award for Best Jazz Fusion Performance in 1988.
