Sometimes blue
I, steel her strength
That fades her light away
A person who just
Gets on with her day
She’s only sometimes blue
Oh, She’s only sometimes blue
Her youthful flare
Her deep red hair
The fact she cares
Her beauty, her grace
Twenty years loves embrace
Oh, it’s hard to see you this way
(She’s only sometimes blue)
I wish I could take your pain away
(She’s only sometimes blue)
Oh my love
(She’s only sometimes blue)
Welcome to country
I’ve always felt a deep sense of patriotism for Australia. It’s a beautiful country—one where people from all walks of life can live, grow, and thrive. I’ve always seen our flag as a symbol of unity, representing the inclusion of people from many nations.
But what makes this country truly remarkable are its Traditional Owners, whose cultures and histories span tens of thousands of years. Despite the deep injustices they suffered during colonisation—treated as less than human and pushed to the margins—they survived, resisted, and continue to share their culture and land with grace. The fact that they still offer a “Welcome to Country” speaks volumes about their strength and generosity.
What I find hard to reconcile is when some Australians, who claim to be patriotic, reject this truth. True patriotism should be grounded in honesty, respect, and inclusion.
When I first heard about the “March for Australia,” I hoped it was about marching for all Australians. But it became clear that it wasn’t—it focused on protecting the interests of a select few, rather than embracing the diverse reality of our nation. How is it that the Traditional Owners—after all they’ve endured—can still welcome us, yet some of us march to keep others out?
To me, that’s not the Australia I believe in. That kind of thinking dishonours the sacrifices made by those who fought for our freedoms in the 1940s.
Lest we forget.
Coming for you
Growing up in the 1980s was the golden age of prime-time TV! Shows like The A-Team, Buck Rogers, The Fall Guy, and my all-time favourite, Knight Rider with David Hasselhoff as Michael Knight, were epic! This song, ‘Coming For You,’ is a tribute to those awesome TV days!
Mathematics
This song is about the relationships between parent and child.
BIG WHEEL
New song that will be released on my next album
‘The Children of ruin’
This song is about my little adventure to a place that was larger than life, promising everything but tends to leave you with empty pockets. Los Vegas!
THIS IS ‘BIG WHEEL!
Let yourself dance
My third attempt at moving into a little bit more dance music. This is just a fun song about losing yourself to the music and letting go of all your inhibitions. Considering my dancing is The Dad technique I didn’t want to show you any of my moves. So I created these little animations, to hide you from the true horror of me dancing
The Youth
First track of the album [Sertraline] (released on all platforms Ed platforms, November 5 )was written end of 2019, called ‘The Youth’. This song was about my time working in age, care and coming to terms with the loneliness and isolation experienced by the
people in my care.
But’ this song would be almost prophetic, considering the next couple of years we all were about to experience.
The only Lyric is…
‘life well lived, not to die alone’.
Grace & Style
Second track from the album [Sertraline] (released on all platforms, November 5 ) ‘Grace and Style’ is in my opinion a very stupid song. Unfortunately for me, everyone seems to love it. So I thought, I’d better put it on the album.
Rage against the Ocean, Rage against the Sea
The third track from the album [Sertraline] (released on all platforms, November 5 ) was a look into the mind of someone starting to spiral into severe mental illness.
Anxiety
Describing anxiety to me, is like being stuck on a small boat in the middle of the ocean in the middle of a hurricane. Constantly, for days and months feelings of doom and dread with no let up. Getting to a point where you start feeling fatigued and just want to get off the little boat. The worst part is, you don’t know where the anxiety is coming from.
FOOL DOWN
Track four ‘FOOL DOWN’ from the album [Sertraline] (released on all platforms, November 5) illustrates how warped a mind can get when suffering a mental break. Overwhelming feelings of shame and guilt cloud judgement and obscure what is truly important. What makes life worth living.
Sertraline
Being finally diagnosed with Borderline personality disorder B.P.D. was a relief and now gave me more options on how to treat my illness. This usually means you start with new medication which at first, knock you around a lot. The critical first few months of this change, trust me, has its problems.
Things get worse before they get better.
SERTRALINE the fifth and Title track of the album [Sertraline] (released on all platforms, November 5) is a look at that critical time. A time when you doubt anything is going to work. But, in the end it works.
Take me alone
This song is a bit of a ‘coming of age’ song I wrote at the beginning of this year. The song is a reference to my life growing up in Valleyview to immigrant parents who are also very religious. As you know when you grow you begin having your own ideas and opinions on things like politics and religion. Mine clashed quite hard with my parents which intern made me feel that a lot of my life I would Walk alone.
‘Take me alone‘ The sixth song on the album [Sertraline] (released on all platforms, November 5).
Optimism
I remember the early days of the pandemic starting work one afternoon, sitting and relaxing with one of my residence, having a coffee together. Finding a warm spot in the Sun and watching the traffic outside the window. In that moment of having a chat and enjoying the small pleasures of life, we dared to be optimistic.
This song ‘Optimism’ the seventh song from the album [Sertraline] (released on all platforms, November 5). Is dedicated to my friend, Albert. RIP
Crazy Love
The eighth song off the album [Sertraline] (released on all platforms, November 5) was a shout out to all my friends and family who are part of the LGBTQI+ community. Released for pride week the song ‘Crazy love’ with its late 90s Rave feel and iconic Mirrorball image was written to reflect a free spirit and acceptance of love in all its forms.
Smile at you
‘Smile at you’, was written for my wife for Mother’s Day this year. A day of which unfortunately I stuffed up monumentally for her. She works so hard and is my rock that I anchor down on, especially when my turbulent emotions are about to capsize me. Her grace and style, beauty and strength, I believe makes me the luckiest man alive and I love her with all my heart.
Inner Voice
This 10th track (Inner voice) of the album [Sertraline] released on all platforms, November 5, was plagiarised straight from a therapy session with my psychologist. It’s probably the most feelgood song of the album with its positive theme, ‘everything is gonna be okay’.
Anonymity
The second last track ‘Anonymity’ of the album [Sertraline] released on all platforms, November 5, came out of the streams of disinformation from the past three years. Anonymous posts from faceless Trolls, who either don’t have a clue of what they’re talking about, or maybe trying to sell vitamin supplements lead a lot of people to believe some crazy shit. I tried desperately not to put my opinion into the mix, especially if I myself don’t know what I’m talking about. Me giving opinions about subjects I have no idea about, would be a lie.
Summer Days
The outro ‘Summer Days’ to the album [Sertraline] released on all platforms, November 5, is a kind a summer feel good song about lazy days, sitting on the beach, drinking some Canadian club and enjoying the atmosphere down by the Bay.
