Since I bought my new iPod Classic, I’ve been filling up that little baby with music, all sorts of wonderful stuff. I love my iPod, my iTunes, and I can spend a fruitful day uploading at least a hundred songs into that little machine. From the chill-out sounds of Royksopp and Nuspirit Helsinki, to the...

….is fast becoming one of my favourite songs. It’s a song by Daughtry, a phenomenal, hot, rising band pioneered by Chris Daughtry, a former American Idol contestant (Season 5). With music edging on rock and grunge, Daughtry’s songs are fast rising on the music charts, with the release of one great single after another. You...

Musician’s note: My friend and I wrote the lyrics for this song for the Taiwanese pop artiste, Elva. The song was Mandarin to begin with, but they were hoping to break into the English-speaking market, and enlisted our help to do so. So, MM and I came up with these lyrics, definitely on the corny...

In your eyes
I see the inner fire
What a beautiful day to throw away
What a beautiful day.
Dream tongiht
I see myself destroy
What a tragical day to go away
What a tragical day.
Bridge:
You see me cry
Cry in the rain
Cry, cry, cry
Chorus:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
You count the days that I’ve been dead
The wisdom wish inside your...

When I come home
And walk the streets of ghostliness
Dreaming concise
To see the light
Never again from this charade I play alone
Hooked on some Mary Jane and deep red wine
You followed me down tonight
Close the secrets that lie
Chorus:
Breaking the waves in the maze of my old enemies
Truly believe in what I see
Better go down on your knees
If...

Musician’s note: One of my favourite pieces of all that I’ve composed.
When I say that you don’t mean everything
you’re speaking does it really matter really

and when I look into your eyes all I try to see
is a picture of you and me
holding hands and walking by the...

Musician’s note: A fictitious piece about secret lovers.
Whisper with your fingers
On the strings, your Stratocaster
Tastes like mead upon my lips
Walking like a willow through the leaves
I long to steal a tempered kiss
Upon my lips
Bridge 1:
Now the day has turned into the night
Silent longing has filled me with fright
Across the room
We share a secret moment
Breathless, like...

Musician’s note: After I got it on with a beautiful man named Michael many, many years ago, I wrote this song for the heck of it after I found out he was a jerk.
Affirmation, physical attraction
Seems so much more
And what is it for?
I’m a harlot, you’re the buyer
Stripping me bare like you skin a hare
Hey...

Musician’s note: I wrote this song after when I was in secondary school. I went with my mother to pick up my cousin, who is mentally-retarded, from school and we found a group of boys laughing and mocking him. The only person who had bothered to stand up for him was a girl in his...
