The show went flawlessly. I have been very busy writing and recording and I am stoked to get some new music out into the airwaves.
Throughout the months here, as the seasons change, I will be leaking tracks from the new record, and letting y'all know what I have been up too.
Unfortunately, in Nashville, my lap top was stolen from me, which through things off for me a bit, and I am currently trying to land back on my feet. If you are reading this, from my lap top, or you have any leads to my missing lap top, please do send me an e-mail at zrobb50@gmail.com.
Anyhow, the missing piece, has created a determination within me to express my feelings over the internet and talk about all that has been going on. Lots of songs have been written. And I mean, LOTS! That's why, I really want to just start writing and expressing my thoughts and feelings. I feel like, the more lyrics, I write here, the more I can start to incorporate new poems, and lyrics into my songs. So read, as we morph into a creative and more appealing thought process. Love, is all around, as it always is, and always will be. And the excitement of new journeys and adventures have made life get easier and easier.
Throughout the months, I have been writing songs that you have not heard such as Waitin', The Secret, Comin' To Nashville, Under The Sea, Sequels to Strummin' and One Thing is For Sure, They Do, Melinda, Magazines, Hats, songs that have slipped through the cracks, Ask Why, Tomorrow, Classroom Symphony, lol... It's all here, it's all in my inbox. Oooh, one of my favorite tracks, Names of Instalove, inspired by John Lennon, Janis Joplin, and Johnny Cash. It has been a journey, kickin back at home writing new music. Let's put some of these new songs into perspective. I've been dying to compose these tracks for a while now, and it seems that I've focused more on recording more and more songs, rather than focusing on composing. I keep saying, oh yeah, I'm going to tab that song tomorrow, and then, it just doesn't happen. This week and throughout the next few months, I am going to be pen to the paper, putting these songs in ink, and really letting some of them leak out. Thank you for listening. Let's get to it.
Listening, originally published to facebook as a riff inspired by Strawberry Fields Forever, turned into a beautiful song, whose lyrics were handed to me through the form of a poem. The poem was given to me, from my dear cousin, Alison. Alison, with effortless skill and flawless talent, has a passion for writing poems and writes naturally and without worry. I love Alison, because she was really able to tune into The Secret of life and lend us the key to it. What is The Secret?
The Secret to living, is not to stress. The Secret, is simple. The Secret, is a conversation we all find ourselves in awe over, time and time again. Whether we realize it or not, conversations regarding the secret keep re occuring throughout the world, leading us into temptation.
The Law of Attraction
The famous book
The movie
These are all thought of and brought up when discussing The Secret.
But...
The Secret by my cousin, Alison Small.
That is the most beautiful poem that has ever been sent to me.
It sends goosebumps down my spine.
Like no one's listening. As we dream. No one listening, is as it seems. What's the secret? Why are we here? Make a wish on a shooting star. Cuz we all want to know about that paradox, We have it in our blood, to grow with the tide.
The wind is billowing. Are you listening?
The leaves are rustling. Are you listening?
Tune into, the love, and let your thoughts go.
Cause experience, is what makes us.
We are our choices and our mistakes.
If we don't take chances, we'll regret it when it's too late.
We are building up, the climax, and the poem is sensational.
Alison's ability to draw the listener in, with ease, and agility, astonishes me. Naturally, tuning into a zenful atmosphere, Alison, inspired me to write, and gently held me as I fell in love with her poem, and songwriting.
Looking at the sky, wondering why we're all here.
What's the secret?
What's the bigger plan?
Who has the answer?
I love Alison's poem so much, it gives me tons of goosebumps.
These are the questions and the themes that we should be getting at. I feel like, these thoughts and suggestions, are bringing us closer together, and helping us on our journey. Alison has the answer. And while, I am not ready to give it away, I applaud Alison in her sensational poem, and thank her, dearly.
There's no doubt in my mind, that these next few months are going to be intriguing with feelings and love, as we all fall in love.
The comedian, in me, is working up many brilliant Comedies.
Leading up to the elections, my songwriting has lead me to write songs about the upcoming election. I've written A Trump Song and a Thanksgiving Comedy.
Even, with my comedy which will one day be completed and released, about The Donald, I still am deciding, just who exactly I am going to be voting for this November. I know many of my fellow NYC friends have gotten me to want to vote for Bernie Sanders.
The creative love, inside of me, is looking forward to expressing, what this is, love.
After all, the melodies are there, and the ones that were good, are still there.
Since you have made it this far, I feel like, it's a good time to let you know that I do have All For You posted at www.zacharyrobinson,bandcamp.com . As time goes on, we are gearing up for the release, which I do have an Album Title Leak!
The album is going to be self titled: Zach Robinson!
Your ideas drift on the page, through a leaking marker.
Painted in blue, red, and gold.
They make there way to and from, page to page.
Past turns into present leading us to the future.
And you're onto something when you know.
Relax the mind, and enter into a wild unkown.
While life beckons, a fleeting heart loves her.
And so you reach into the sky, and call for love to pour.
Each, wave wonders, each light ponders, and each soul breeds.
Where there is love, there is a light, and it leads.
You hear the sound, and so you crawl, simply to enter.
Over a hill, your soul's in tune, while your head wonders.
Songs, upon songs, yet to be fully scribed and yet to have made it.
The book of love, has also begun.
While many of it's pages, are left with Mr. Asus, maybe Mr. Asus made it to this page and wants to e-mail me that book that I started.
(Write more song lyrics to the songs that have been written)
So, not too long ago, I got an e-mail in my inbox, with an updated track list. As you may have heard, we are getting ready to release a record.
Now, I do not want to give too much away...
