Hello everyone,
This is the song I recorded 0n 08-09-18 and uploaded the latest mix a few days later in the week.  It is another song which I created the music for some time ago, but hadn’t got around to singing it.  As it happens, I had to recreate the whole song from scratch again as I seemed to have lost the music from the keyboard’s memory bank.  I do have other tracks to complete still, but will be creating completely new tracks also.  The website is as complete as it can be now and I will reveal all to the world soon.   Thanks for listening and reading the blogs.

This week’s update
Hello all,
Today I have bombarded Twitter with many of my old and new songs just to see which songs are preferred by the Twitter world.  Fortunately, my favourites were the ones which gained the most ‘likes’ and listens (and thanks to all those who made up those statistics).  Very soon I will be promoting my website to the world via Facebook (and maybe Twitter too).  My reason for doing this is just so my last 16 months are acknowledged (whether liked or not is another matter, but hopefully people will check it out and enjoy some of the lyrics and songs within.  I do have other lyrics on the way and will add them to my site once complete.
Thanks to all who have spent time listening to my songs today and hope you have enjoyed them, but apologies if not.  If you like what I write spread the word, but not too much as I enjoy working in my small, unknown and  secluded capacity.  If you are a musician, or in the industry, and are able to play these songs better or know of anyone who can, I would be very happy to hear the results.
Thanks for listening, reading and/or following me.

New lyrics/poems
Hi all,
This week I have completed a few new lyrics and poems and still have a couple left to complete.  They have been added to the ‘The Lost Connection: the complete list of songs, lyrics and poems’.  I will add the other ones as soon as they are complete too.  Below are the latest song lyrics and poems.0831  Perpetual Feast:   Lyrics
0832 Â Perpetual Winner: Â Â Lyrics
0833 Â Just Friends (With Benefits):Â Lyrics
0834 Â TV History At 50: Â Â Â Poem
0835 Â The Lost Waltz Song: Â Â Lyrics
0836  My Special Space:   Poem‘Perpetual Feast’ is the title for my songwriting (if put on an album).  I stuck with the theme for ‘Perpetual Winner’.
‘Just Friends (With Benefits)’ is another song which, if recorded, will be put in the “Under The Influence Of…’ playlist on ‘SoundCloud’.
‘TV History At 50’ involved a bit of research, for once, and was inspired by my age 5o and ‘Hawai Five-0’.  Coincidently, this programme started in the year I was born and ended in 1980, when I was hit by a lorry and on a life support machine (and my life nearly ended).
’The Lost Waltz Song’ is a set of lyrics I have written for a very old tune I created at the same time as, ‘My Piano Tune Song’ (which I also added lyrics too recently).  The lyrics are about music and highlight the weird style of this song.
‘My Special Space’ is about my chair on the patio where most my thinking goes on.
‘Loose Women’ I have just started writing and ‘Distant’ is almost complete.
Update over and thanks for reading.

The Month Of Reincarnation
Hi all,
Nothing new has been written this month yet, although new ideas are always floating around, but I am pleased to have dug up some old tunes that have never had vocals accompaniments.… until now.  These recordings weren’t uploaded to impress people (as always) but just to make me feel better knowing that I have finally  completed them.  But, however, ‘Feeling Sound’ is a great piece of music which was recorded somewhen in the early 2000s.  I wrote lyrics for this music years later, with a commercial hint (as it was about enjoying the vibe in a party environment – although not really a party tune as such).  Anyway, I really like it and hopefully a few more people will.   https://soundcloud.com/thelostconnection/feeling-sound
Thanks for reading this blog and hopefully I’ll get back to recording new songs again soon.Colin

Website Update
Hello all,
This week I have been amending my, ‘Songs, lyrics and poems list’ and now it is much easier to read and understand.  There is now a link alongside each title, if not several, and the links are:
Lyrics,
Poem,
Song,
Music only,
Music sample.I am still trying to improve my songs vocally, musically and/or the production, as well as turn the rest of my lyrics into songs.  I may even add ‘music only’ to more of the titles so people can, if they want, try their vocals instead.  It is very probable that other musicians could play these songs a lot better too, and I will always welcome anyone wishing to do this (as one young ukulele player did earlier this year, for a part of “Like A Drug’.  He also changed the tempo and style completely).
Many of the lyrics have been slightly amended already, as they were originally written very spontaneously and without the need to impress anyone, but were just a way of me logging my thoughts and literal creativity.
If I manage to perfect my songs to a substantial level I may create/release an album.  I have already decided the title will be, “Perpetual Feast’.  This is also the name of one of my newest sets of lyrics.  This defines why I create music and the sentiments behind it.
I’m just about to complete 2 more song lyrics.  One is keeping with the perpetual them (‘Perpetual Winner’) and the other is…  Oh, I won’t say for now, but it will be listed as and when completed.
Thanks for reading this blog and if you like anything I do, let me know sometimes.  You can even tell me if you don’t like any of it and I will listen and maybe even agree with your opinions, as I know there is plenty of room for improvement.

Song List Update
Hi all linked to ‘The Lost Connection’.
I have amended the list below, so now the songs can be viewed a lot easier, in numerical order, from top to bottom.  I didn’t get chance to record a new song this week, but will do very soon and continue to improve the older ones, hopefully.
Also, good to see ‘Innovator’ (the rock band I used to be in) release a new album which was half recorded when I left the band.  Thankfully, 95% of my recorded parts on the were left on the album.
Thanks for reading and hope to record and write more things that I hope others like, in the future.

Song 831 is… Perpetual Feast
These are the newest lyrics which I started last week.
-
The last lyrics written were, ‘Two Minds (In The Same Boat)’
This is Song 830.  I was very chuffed with this set of lyrics which I wrote last weekend.  As with all the lyrics I write, they are very clear in meaning at the time they are written, but later the depth at which they were being written is harder to comprehend.  Nonetheless, this was a very meaningful piece that explained a situation that is very hard to explain in normal conversation.  In the form of lyrics I find it much easier expressing feelings on certain matters.  I still use metaphors a lot and water still represents love (since ‘Symbol Explanation’ was written back in the very early 90’s).  I have amended it slightly since last weekend and split it into verses, bridges and choruses now.

‘Website and Videos’ Update
Hi all,
I have finally started indulging in the uploading of video clips of me performing songs.  The first video was uploaded on FaceBook this week (Fate Can Be Cruel).  This has now been added to my YouTube site and, yesterday, I added ‘The Lost Waltz’.  As usual, they are very amateur recordings, but just another way of demonstrating what I have written.  You will also see that I have finally changed the style of my website slightly.  It’s still not how I want it, ideally, but it looks a bit better now.
My songs do not seem to be getting such a high response on SoundCloud these days, but Twitter, fortunately,  is reflecting a bit more interest.  This is partly why I may do more videos, as the ‘Fate Can Be Cruel’ as this did gain a lot of attention compared to all other uploads.  I may have to start making sure that what I record is to a higher quality soon, in case more do start to listen… but no guarantees.
Anyway, I am still recording at least one new song a week, so all is going to plan at the moment (even if the songs are not liked that much, lol).
Bye for now,
Â
