    Won’t Stop! (Single Version) by The Lost Connection – DistroKid

    8 August 2022

    Hi everyone,

    Today, 8th August 2022, I finally released another single, which I have been working on all year, I rarely release singles, but when I do it is because the song is very important to me. ‘Voluntary Redundancy’ was a single I had to release as it was the start of a new era in so many ways. ‘Won’t Stop!’ is a about carrying on the passion of making music no matter what anyone else thinks. The music in this song was created, by my friend and I, around 3 decades ago and luckily I recorded it when it happened. I decided to add lyrics last year and turned it into a full song this year. This single is a short version, but on the album a slightly longer version will begin the album and an even newer, and fuller version, will end the album.

    The next single will be ‘I Am Just Me’ and then I will release the album soon after, hopefully. Please check out ‘Won’t Stop!. It was co-created and is about our separate musical endeavours and, despite whatever happened, we didn’t stop creating music. Unfortunately, spare time is rare and finding time to complete any of our songs over the decades, and now, has always been hard. Luckily, due to breaks from work, I managed to get another album completed and as I feel the production has progressed I have decided to release a couple of singles. No singles were released from ‘The New Lost World -19-20-21’, nor ‘Lost Property’. In 2013, ‘SongCast’ was released through SongCast radio (aptly enough) but was only available for a few years. It can now be found on ‘The Lost & Found History (2021 Song Update)’ album though. As it happens, I have written a song about DistroKid, so hopefully that will be recorded in the future, but time is running out and ‘Whatever Happened’ may be my last album I release, but let’s hope I/we won’t stop recording songs and making musical memories for ourselves and anyone else who digs what I do.

    Thanks for reading this post and, if you like what I do, please buy/stream this song when possible (and share if you really like it).

    Hi everyone.

    Here is a song which was created from music to another song which was never released. The original song was, ‘Cracks’. The riff (which was played over 2 chords) was catchy and simplistic. Am Italian lady, who was on the same sync-writing course as me, was looking for a dark sounding tune. When I sent her the tune featured in this song, she decided it was worth turning into a new song. I wrote similar lyrics to the original (which was about cracks appearing in a relationship). Jodylynn helped me shape the song and had some lyrical input too. I tried my best to sing it how she wanted, but a professional singer is being seeked to add their vocals instead.

    I will probably release this version on my next album (although improvements maybe made beforehand) whereas the other version, if it happens, will be used more for sync opportunities instead, hopefully. In Italy, where Jodylynn lives, COVID is causing a hindrance on this endeavour, but hopefully new vocals will be added eventually.

    That’s all for now. Thanks for reading this blog update and I hope you like the new song developments.

    PS. Another song, a collaborative effort, is my main focus at the moment. Eventually, it will feature guitar and vocals of my co-writing friend. I will do a blog about that song next.
