About Me |
|
| I write lyrics for songs, ranging from pleasant ballads to fairly serious stuff, dealing with relationships, religion, poverty and the third world, Springsteen-type stories, war, and, well, I'm still writing... about twenty-five songs to date. The recordings on the player are very basic, i.e. unrefined demos, and the songs could be interpreted in many different ways; please see my blog The Lyrics for the words. And then look at my other blogs for the words of other songs. Get in touch if any interest you in particular, and I'll tell you what's happening with them. profiletweaks.com - Unique MySpace Generators I am married to a lovely Spanish lady, and have an equally lovely 5 year-old daughter. My daughter was the full inspiration for Words can Wait, and my wife has written music for Early Days. War Correspondent, Still Shining, and If. We have a friend in Lausanne, Marie, a very gifted pianist, who wrote the music for the three songs recorded on the player, Words can Wait, Storm Rising, and alternative music for If; she is working on some of the others.I have promises or semi-promises of collaboration to produce music for several other sets of lyrics, and others still are waiting for offers of collaboration, so please get in touch if any interest you. A few people have expressed an interest in singing some of the songs, and as soon as they get on and record them I shall either post the recordings here or give a link to their page.So singers or composers, get in touch if you're inspired by anything you see here! I'm very realistic about things, and I'm convinced there are a few potential successes in what I've written to date. I'm dying to get on with things! |

My Interests |
|
| Music and obviously lyric-writing. My other main passion is the internal martial arts - Tai Chi, Y Chuan, Bagua, for the health benefits and sensations they bring with the years. | |
I'd like to meet:Singers/bands looking for songs of different styles with lyrics varying from fairly meaningful to very meaningful. Composers to collaborate to produce music for the lyrics that don't have any yet. |
|
Music:Little Steven, Springsteen, Southside Johnny, Dylan, Patti Scialfa, Budgie, Meatloaf, Billy Joel, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Melissa Etheridge, Cat Stevens, Led Zep, Deep Purple, the Who, Rolling Stones, Bob Seger, Steve Earle, Leonard Cohen, Anouk, Alex Harvey and many more. And increasingly, the very talented up-and-coming people I meet on Myspace. On the French side, Francis Cabrel is the best, a brilliant lyricist, along with Jean-Jacques Goldman |
|
Books:Authors include John Banville, J.M. Coetzee, Rupert Thomson, John le Carré |
|
Heroes:Those doing good work that you never hear or read about - eg those who give up their day off to stick stamps on envelopes they hope will serve a good cause. |

Hiding in the shadows

I looked much closer
But I must have looked too hard

The lyrics |
|
| Words can wait
Baby has no words
Just a reason less absurd
Defies all mine
Knows just how to hold
And then just how to let it go
Because it's time
Baby has these eyes
And when she stares strai... Posted by Tim Eldridge on Fri, 01 Jun 2007 11:43:00 PST |

Well love came
And love stayed
For two hearts free
No past to pay
With love so new
And love so young
We had no words
For love so strong
Yes love came
And love grew
We found the words

But it wasn't all that nice
So I'll sit and watch the sun go down instead
In my garden paradise
