Just for fun.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
i’m comin’ around
i won’t back down
got a posy
i’m after you
i’m bringin’ a ring
forget everything
that i told you
i am ready
god dammit if i have to
climb a mountain
i’ll man it with abandon
racing for you
you’re shootin’ me down
way down to the ground
still i saw you
Seraphina
god dammit it if i have to
down a dragon
i’ll plan it for your pleasure
send it to me
has anybody
seen my baby
engine’s runnin’
get in
i’m down on my knees
cohabitees
for the weekend
will have to do
god dammit do you have to
always play me
god dammit do you have to
stove me in
god dammit it if i have to
slay a dragon
damn Phina

real songwriting. Well done
Comment by Francesco Adornetto - Emotional Piano
There’s a calm yet profound feeling in this track: the music seems to invite slowing down, returning to the essentials. The sonic weave is elegant: you sense care in the transitions, and a balance between rhythm and space that allows breathing. A perfect moment for introspection, for posing silent questions and treating listening as a form of care.

Vocals, bass and drums are all kicking it and those guitar licks really rock this one out. Wonderful indie rock that feels just right. Giving me some Pixies vibes.

Oh wow Jonathan. This once again seems so effortlessly and catchy. Your guitar tone is brilliant as always and I really like the story you are telling. I would join you behind the stone you are hiding, that is for sure.
