It's about the songs. I'm not so much a singer-songwriter as a songwriter-singer. I do not fit into a genre. The genre fits the song. They range from rock to country ditties, from standard lounge ballads to power pop, from blue-eyed r&b to country rock. I sing almost all the vocals and play almost all the music (mostly on keyboard) but, as I said, it's about the songs.

Story behind the song
My musical manifesto, from 2015.
Lyrics
For a Song Please excuse the imposition Allow me to explain my position I ain't no fool And I ain't foolin It's not about bein a star / Slayin a girl with a hot guitar It's not about samples or beats / Or choreography It's not just about rhythm and rhyme / Rhyme rhyme all the time Or a killer vocal range / It's not about acting strange It's not about the things you wear / Or the way you do your hair Hey, it's OK, don't get me wrong / But for me It's just about the song I'm not doin this for wealth Not doin this for my health (Well, I don't know, maybe I am) But I just can't stop myself I just can't stop / I just can't sto But I just can't stop Pretty melody comes along (sweet inspiration) Some words to sing along (sweet inspiration) All at once I'm a tool For a song
