Fake News 04:30
lyrics

FAKE NEWS VERSE 1 Turn on your television, tell me what you see Fabricated propaganda or true reality Exaggerated points of view and manipulated lies Hard to know which way to turn when you cannot trust your eyes CHORUS Hey Heeeeeey, nothing´s as it seems Evil algorithms are messing with our dreams Political agendas cross the line and bend the truth Well I´ve got a million better things to do Than listen to your Fake News. VERSE 2 All this misinformation, swaying people´s views Computer generated madness, divide, deceive, confuse Online artificial warfare, images are smeared Lost my faith in journalism, viral hoaxes feared CHORUS

State of Sleep 05:14
lyrics

Verse 1 These four walls are closing in on me Over time I´ve been going blind, can´t see I´m counting the days, Each one a notch on the wall that cannot be erased Live in a haze Clinging to memories, longing for your embrace. CHORUS Cos nothing, nothing seems real to me Everything seems so fake We´re drifting Caught in a dreamworld nowhere to escape Won´t someone, anyone break the spell Find the missing key Cos I´m burning, dying to break free From this state of sleep Verse 2 A photograph of how we used to be But now we laugh behind our masks don´t we? In a far away land, someone is calling my name There´s a voice in the wind A touch of your hand Is all that I need to awake from this state I´m in CHORUS BRIDGE You know it won´t be long Until we see the light of dawn CHORUS TO END

REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE Verse 1 Sometimes, It can seem you´re going nowhere Swimming hard against the current every day And once in a while it would be so nice to see you Running wild and free without that ball and chain, And I say Chorus Stand out in a crowd, shining like a star Hold onto the truth Remember who you are You should be so proud Of how you´ve come so far Hold onto your roots Remember who you are Verse 2 When you´re burning on the inside As you stumble through this world with all its ways Weighed down, under all the expectation Insecurity a master to your slave And I say CHORUS

Better Late Than Never 04:35

VERSE 1 There´s a demon on my shoulder And he´s telling me over and over That I can´t win, that I ain´t worth a dime I ignore him, I abhor him, But he´s always there in the morning There to tell me I´m wasting my time CHORUS Been a long time coming But I´ve never felt like this before Well you know I can´t explain it But I feel so liberated now my demons are on the floor Better late than never Better later than never VERSE 2 There´s a devil on my shoulder And he´s weighing me down like a boulder Way down to the depths of the sea When I´m drowning in my sorrow His words pierce my heart like an arrow Couldn´t give a damn bout a poor boy like me CHORUS INSTRUMENTAL VERSE 3 There´s an angel on my shoulder And she´s telling me over and over Gonna be OK, gonna be just fine You can do this, you´ll get through this Keep your eyes on the goal and you can´t miss Just believe in youself and your light will shine CHORUS OUTRO

Shake Your Body Down 04:12
lyrics

Verse 1 Monday morning, can´t get out of bed Feels like a bomb´s gone off inside your head Your phone is ringing, you´re running late We can all relate You want the truth, I will tell you no lies There is no easy ride through life So buckle up and take your seat Here comes the week Bridge When you can´t take no more When you wanna scream and shout Just step outside your door Cos baby we are going out CHORUS On the town, you´ve got to shake your body down On the town, you´ve got to shake your body down Verse 2 Where to begin, tell me when does it end So hard to keep the faith my friend Instead of love they´re selling hate We can all relate Destroy Mother Nature with our pollution Someday we´ll face her retribution These politicians give me the blues Turn off the news Bridge Chorus to end

It´s Our Destiny 04:02

We need something to talk about Lately there´s nothing to talk about here, my dear Rolling, blown by the wind We are floating with no destination I fear My dear, my dear... How long will we be Sail boats lost at sea Drifting aimlessly It´s our destiny Battered, bruised by the waves We are sinking but who´s gonna save us out here, my dear Visions of land in the distance Are nothing but hallucinations I fear My dear, my dear How long will we be Sail boats lost at sea Drifting aimlessly It´s our destiny How long will we be Sail boats lost at sea Drifting aimlessly It´s our destiny It´s our destiny X 4

Do you remember when we were together? Just close your eyes and I am there with you This situation will not last forever These stormy skies will turn from grey to blue DON´T GIVE UP You know together we will make it through DON´T GIVE UP You know the sun is gonna shine, sun is gonna shine on you Well every cloud has a silver lining There is no mountain that cannot be moved It seems impossible but don´t stop trying If you have faith there´s nothing you can´t do DON´T GIVE UP You know together we will make it through DON´T GIVE UP You know the sun is gonna shine, sun is goona shine on you So dance in the rain Sing through the pain Dance in the rain Sing through the pain

SPACE RACE Verse 1 It´s such a dizzy view, down to the Earth below We´re speeding ever upwards far from home At zero gravity, your heart and soul are free A rocket ship is all you need, yeah yeah. Bridge HOLD TIGHT gonna send you into orbit GREEN LIGHT is the signal in the cockpit THAT´S RIGHT gonna send you into outer space OUT OF SIGHT as we blast into the night sky STAR LIGHT will illuminate your mind´s eye SATELLITES are revolving round the stars we chase Chorus It´s a race into space, so keep up with the pace It´s a race into space, it´s a space race X2 Verse 2 Up here I feel so small, lost in the galaxy A million stars are shining just for me A drop in this great ocean, a grain of sand are we This great unknown this great eternity. Bridge Chorus Extended Bridge Double chorus to end

VERSE 1 A ray of sunlight, casting shadows on your face As you lay in perfect peace Wake to daylight, a thousand dreams for you to chase Welcome to reality CHORUS Hey child, it´s a complicated world When there´s nowhere left to hide But I just want you to know I´ll be right here by your side VERSE 2 Come closer now, let me hold you in my arms All your worries share with me Well it´s too late to go back now, so you must carry on somehow Bittersweet this symphony

There´s something in the way You look into my eyes that bothers me It won´t go away Alarm bells in my head Sirens triggered by the weight of all the words that you said If you´re sinking like a stone Konw that you are not alone Release your soul, Release your Soul Don´t you know theres more to life than tears and sorrow Release your soul, Release your Soul Don´t you know your sun will rise again tomorrow Now its time to face the truth, its time to face the truth Nah nah nah nah nah The world in shades of grey All the colours that you used to see have faded away You touch but you don´t feel Your emotions hidden deep inside cold as steel When the clouds eclipse the sun Know you´re not the only one Release your soul, Release your Soul Don´t you know theres more to life than tears and sorrow Release your soul, Release your Soul Don´t you know your sun will rise again tomorrow Now its time to face the truth, its time to face the truth Nah nah nah nah nah If you´re sinking like a stone Konw that you are not alone Release your soul, Release your Soul Don´t you know theres more to life than tears and sorrow Release your soul, Release your Soul Don´t you know your sun will rise again tomorrow Now its time to face the truth, its time to face the truth Nah nah nah nah nah There´s something in the way You make me feel

GUITAR SOLO IN “RELEASE YOUR SOUL”: CHICHE SOSA


I (Andy Steventon) am a Bristish amateur musician and songwriter, based in Zaragoza (Spain).

My musical influences are extremely varied and eclectic, as is reflected in the different styles that can be heard in my songs.
To sum it up, I LOVE GREAT MUSIC FROM ANY GENRE!!

I grew up in a musical family listening to my parents music, mainly Carole King, Elton John, Dire Straits, Iona, Beatles. When in to my teens I started listening to Brit Pop bands (Oasis, Blur, Manic Street Preachers, Stereophonics...) and later got into some slightly different / heavier stuff such as Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Radiohead, Skunk Anansie, Foo Fighters, Placebo, Deftones, Silver Chair, Rage against the Machine, Alter Bridge etc.
In my quest to improve my guitar playing abilities I´ve also listened to a lot of great artists such as John Mayer, Tommy Emmanuel, John Petrucci, Guthrie Govan etc. etc. and due to playing in covers bands I´ve had lots of exposure to a wide range of material from Adele, Sheryl Crow, Alanis Morrisette, Passenger, REM, Bob Marley, Incubus, Jamiroquai, The Police, Amy Winehouse and hundreds of other artists.

I have lived in Zaragoza (Spain) since 2002 and for many years played guitar in a covers band called BAGS, mainly playing RHCP and other funk/rock material which was great fun.
Currently I have a young family and less time, so I´m concentrating more on my songwriting and the occasional covers gig and open mic performance.
