Artist picture
English lyricist working with dozens of composers and artists
I am a lyricist working with many composers and artists around the world and most frequently with 2 guys, Juri Rosenfeld and Mark Ellis who, although their styles are entirely different, are both extremely talented as musicians and composers, as well as producers. Along with these two, with whom I have written more than 50 songs....I have been most fortunate to collaborate with so many others that the list is almost endless but two very talented ladies spring to mind: Dawn Diamond and Amy Caldwell, who have not only both composed for my words but have also both are possessed of beautiful voices and have sung many, many times on songs I have written. There is no ONE genre I write for, since a lyricist has to be able to write for ANY category and I do, but one thing I try to be always, is honest in my work because when there is integrity, there is a way to relate to the song and if occasionally I meander into the poetic, it is because I am and always have been, since the age of 13 years, a poet...but that doesn't mean everything I write is flowery or full of metaphors...as I say, I strive always to be real and of course, most importantly, to be as unique as possible.

Lyrics
Damocles Damn You! by Dawn Sinclair History---the sword above my head Forcing me---to face up to my dread, Rather embrace my tomorrows, instead I am stuck in what’s been Damocles damn you! Gotta get away from this scene Attempted cutting the ties, turning my back to the North Wind But when the sun hit my face, glare just turned me blind The weight of the past was pulling me down to nuthin’ I couldn’t put it all out of my mind History---lead weight in my shoes Stopping me---doing what I choose Can’t get past my regrets now, There’s no bright light at the end Damocles damn you!! You’re waiting right around the next bend chorus I’m gonna make a new start, no looking over my shoulder And I’m holding my breath, daring that damn sword to fall Ooh, here’s a new me, taller, braver and bolder Cos those yesterdays mean nothing at all. solo rpt chorus I’ll make a new start, this time I’m doing the driving And I am telling you straight, here’s where the journey begins There’s no looking back, from now I’ll just be arriving And I’ll live by the code: that he who dares wins!

Amy,you are so right. The lyrics rock and you inject a great feeling to them. A song with a great beat and a toe tapper. One can imagine juri getting all funky as he gets into the solo and it really shows, the effort that the three of you put in. Certainly a very prolific and successful collab group. Cheers Anton.

I hate rating myself...but these vocals were so fun to sing. Your lyrics in part were responsible for that...I loooved this one, soo much 'tood! Lol...Juri always amazes me, and he's made no exception with this one. I'm a lucky gal to have two such collab partners! If only I can keep up with you both!So freakin' prolific, the pair of you! LOL, no you know me, I love it! Keep em comin'! That's if you have time to stop and take a breath, ;) Hugglies, Amy
