KaBERTRAM!!! ...it's all about the music.
Welcome to KaBertram!!! - an explosion of sound, motion, entertainment, and talented people from all around the world, all making music together. And if KaBertram! was a hurricane, then Ray Bertram would be the eye at the center of the storm. Ray, a life-long "compulsive writer," started writing at a very age and he's never stopped. When Ray turned his writing in the direction of lyrics in 2008, things really started hopping. Working together with good friend and partner, musician/song-writer/producer and creative genius John Surbaugh, Ray co-founded BCC Global: The Back Country Connection, which made it possible for him to take his writing and cover the world with it. Ray has now seen his writing produced into songs in the United States (Tennessee, California, Ohio, North Caroline, Georgia), Sweden, The Netherlands, South Africa, England, Ireland, Germany, Austria, and beyond. In 2010, Ray and another one of his frequent partners, Swedish singer/musician/song-writer/producer Anders Larson, were signed by the prominent Swedish promotional house, Hit Works, and in the time since numerous of their songs have been placed under contract and aggressively marketed all around the world. And, to date, Ray's writing has been produced into songs covering many genres, including Pop, Euro-Pop, Folk-Rock, Country, Rock-a-billy, Adult Contemporary, Jass/Swwing, Rap, and more. Ray continues to write and to continually direct his creative energies onward and upward, always striving to reach higher and to move in new directions.

Story behind the song
I chanced upon the writing of a Ashley McLaughlin (Colorado, U.S.A.) back in 2009 and was delighted when she allowed me to take a few pieces, work the content, and develop lyrics from them. Of the lyrics that I was able to develop from her material, "Forever Broken" was to me the best. I was very happy when my friend musician/songwriter/producer Martin Gotz (Austria) agreed to produce the lyric into the song that you see here in August of 2009.
Lyrics
Forever Broken Verse 1: I’m flying again ...High in the air I drift and drift Without a care I crash and I burn I spin and spin Falling and crawling Inside my skin Chorus: My pieces are scattered Nowhere to be found Forever broken I hear the sound The deafening silence ...Words left unspoken I find that I am Forever broken Verse 2: Lost in the silence I try to speak But my voice is So hard to reach I keep on going I can’t let go As I race toward My highest low Chorus: My pieces are scattered Nowhere to be found Forever broken I hear the sound The deafening silence ...Words left unspoken I find that I am Forever broken Verse 3: Corrupt and controlled By what is inside Tempted and torn Nowhere left to hide I spiral downward I look for a friend Always knowing that I will never mend Chorus: My pieces are scattered Nowhere to be found Forever broken I hear the sound The deafening silence ...Words left unspoken As I remain Forever broken Chorus: My pieces are scattered Nowhere to be found Forever broken I hear the sound The deafening silence ...Words left unspoken Yes, I remain Forever broken Lyrics: Ashley McLaughlin Vocals/Instrumentals/Production: Martin Goetz “Forever Broken” (c) 2009 Ashley Mclaughlin, W.
