Catchy Pop-Soul song with a bit of a 1970s feel but also with a harder modern edge; the lyrics deal with with trying to put aside differences and selfishness both in romantic relationships and in the world at large.

Blues, rock and jazz instrumentals with eclectic influences ranging from the Beatles to Chet Atkins to Coltrane to soundtrack exotica
Genre: Classic rock & pop, guitar instrumentals, soundtrack exotica Hometown: Milan, Italy by way of Boston I'm a rock'n'roll singer-songwriter who also likes to dabble in soundtrack music, guitar instrumentals and the occassional bit of wierdness. I've been playing in bands pretty much non-stop since the early 1980s, though things have slowed down of late as I've got more into home studio recording and production. Currently I'm trying to find some chaps to get back out in the pubs with - just for fun and come what may. I've written a bit of music for Italian television ("Pulp Fiction" type guitar instrumentals) and in 2004 I had the good fortune to do a record with producer Scott Mathews called "Tough Love". Some of my main influences are the Stones, Elvis Costello, as well as plenty of blues and '60s garage rock. If it rocks, it rocks. Discography: Tough Love (2004, Donatello Soul Records) Donatello Soul (2008, internet release) Voxpopped (2009, internet release)

Lyrics
Us and We Sometimes it seems that this whole town Is a study in shades of grey Can’t always see what led us here Man on the street He says, “Now where is hope?” Is it down for the count or is this its last stop? May he still be around whenever fortune knocks What I heard him say is Away with just you, away with just me Let’s start talking more about us and we ‘Cause life is too short Not to tell you what I want Let’s start talking more about us and we Cold winter time, we stay indoors And try to pass the time You in your room, and me in mine Anything new might be a relief Any change in the weather’s got me shaking like a leaf The future still looks bright babe But only if We stop and take the time Say away with just you Away with just me Let’s start talking more about us and we ‘Cause life is too short And for what it’s worth I’d like to see a bit more of us and we Even gets lonely for a loner Can’t share what she’s seen with anyone Oh baby is it any wonder? That the things that we say they're just scars on our tongue When everybody’s all for one instead of one for everyone Sometimes it seems we’re living in a world Of mirrors and windows closed How did we get so damn old? I sure miss the feeling of an innocent sound Running barefoot in the sun watching the rain falling down It was so easy then – why not now? What I want to say is Away with just you, away with just me Let’s start talking more about us and we ‘Cause life is too short, to spend it in this rut Let’s start talking more about us and we Away with just you, away with just me Let’s start talking more about us and we ‘Cause life is too short, not to tell you what I want Let’s start talking more about us and we Let’s start talking more, let’s start talking more… Let’s start talking more about us and we
