I really liked that.  Gave off a Slade/Wig Wam feel.
Then that breakdown...very nice!
Cool tune .

Here is an updated version of Journey To The Far Side

Credits

Lyrics: Casia
Music: Emanuel & Friends

Journey To The Far Side

Intro

(V1)
It's time I go
Put my dreams on hold
Gather my things
And hit the road
Cause I didn't know

(Pre-Chorus)
This is my warning...
My one way ticket
To paradise
In a cold cup of ice
You said I was wrong
Said it can't go on

(Chorus)
On our journey...to the far side of the road (x2)

(V2)
All of my feelings
Hidden inside
Wait for you
To join this ride
I close my eyes

(Pre-Chorus)
This is my warning...
My one way ticket
To paradise
In a cold cup of ice
You said I was wrong
Said it can't go on

(Chorus)
On our journey...to the far side of the road (x2)

- solo -

(Bridge)
Love's so wrong
When two hearts know the lies
It won't mean a thing
I'm plucking daisies
Waitin' for your maybe

Like nobody should
You burned my heart
Feel my inner cry
Reaching to the sky

(Outro)
On our journey (On our journey)
On our journey to the far side of the road

On our journey to the far side of the road

E-Man,

Nicely done, very different than the original, but very strong feeling.  Not to age myself, but I wrote this lyric back in 2009, .

This sounds great!... I listened to the original version, wow what a difference!!!

Not to age myself.... But I was half the age today when I started working on that song. I'm now a full grown adult compared to a teenager back in high school. 😅

Surprise! After all these years, here I am rising like a Phoenix.

Lyrics: Paul (PVD)
Piano/Vocals: Emanuel

Phoenix 2024 Ver.

(v1)
My wings may be burning
But my head isn't bowed
Searching your eyes
I will return if allowed

Your flames consume me
But they will subside
Then I'll breathe the air
I can not be denied

(chorus)
I lie among the ashes
Like the phoenix
Who never dies
And as time passes
For you I'll rise
I am your phoenix

(v2)
Harsh words and looks
May cut till I bleed
But I will recover
You're everything I need

And I'll pursue you
My wounds will heal
I'll show you all of me
All my soul can reveal

(chorus)
I lie among the ashes
Like the phoenix
Like the phoenix
Who never dies
And as time passes
For you I'll rise
I am your phoenix

(outro)
You cannot shake me, or forsake me
I will forever return
Love never dies, it will always rise
I am your phoenix

Hello Andy and all the gang.

Blimey! That cleared the cobwebs out of my ears.  It brought a big smile on my face as I listened.

There's lots of instruments playing melodies and harmonies and sometimes occupying the same frequencies but Nick has managed to get the best out of them with his knowledge and experience. Stellar mix. Nick.

George is the man you need for the vox. He always comes up with the goods. Those vox harmonies are great.

I had fun doing this and that is what it's all about.

You guys are legends.

More to come I think.

Billy.

I couldn't agree more, Billy! It's positively incredible to watch how all of you pool your talents to such great and memorable results! MC is such a unique place and I feel very lucky for and appreciative to this community. 

Thank you all!
