My simple oldtime demo melody ”That´s Life” taken to a new level thru Dawn Sinclair´s extraordinary lyrics and Dawn Diamond´s wonderful vocals – one of those few songs, where everything felt ”just right”.

Jazz, Dixieland, Swing and Sweet ...
Started out playing clarinet and soprano-saxophone in different dixielandbands in Uppsala and Stockholm, Sweden, in the 50ies, when I went to college. After that occasionally touring northen Sweden playing swing-based dancemusic a la Benny Goodman for a couple of years, when I studied at the university in Uppsala. After that more or less musically "silent" for more than 25 years concentrating on family and work. In the mid 90ies I seriously took up music-making again and I have bit by bit build up a computer-based homestudio - primarily for my own entertainment and without any intention to make my work public. My music is purely synthetic. My instruments and musicians normally only exist as voices in computers and synthesizers. As I am to a certain extent still playing the old standard jazz-tunes, I try to give my recordings an acoustic blend. My goal is to create the impression of real musicians playing together on real instruments in a realistic accoustic environment.

Lyrics
Twilight of your Days by Dawn Sinclair There was never time to tell you how I really feel Something else was always in my way Looking back I missed so much you managed to conceal That is why I never realised until today.... Now a glint of steel appears within your telling eyes I feel like a child beneath your gaze I'm not sure that I could ever be the kind of girl you'd like to see beside you in the twilight of your days Did you ever think I was a flower to arrange Waiting for a guiding hand like yours Maybe you confused me with a doll you can exchange I can't think of what I might have said to give you cause There is not a shred of hope that I could ever be delicate as broderie anglaise And I'm sure that I could never be the kind of girl you'd like to see beside you in the twilight of your days. Solo I suppose the fault is mine; I never made it clear how I see myself in years to come Climbing to the highest peaks in every hemisphere Crossing all my bridges when I meet them, one by one So you see, I'm not a docile lamb for you to lead nor a girl whose eager for your praise Please be sure that I could never be the kind of girl you'd like to see beside you in the twilight of your days I am sure that I could never be the kind of girl you’d like to see beside you in the twilight of your days.
