I believe I've finally discovered what my sound is after about 12 or so years of writing songs and I'm really enjoying personal musical breakthroughs at the moment. having recently discovered the harmonica to use at my solo / acoustic gigs, I have a new respect for 'folky' artists like Paul Kelly and going back to my roots and writing songs influenced by old retro bands like 'Daddy Cool' of Australia, early 70's Elton John, the Who, even the early Ray Charles bluesy/Gospel stuff I hink is Rad. However at the same time I'm enjoying contemporary influences like the black keys, radio head, Coldplay and other modern bands So, I'm just trying to capture my creativity on multi-track recordings at the moment and trying to perform as much as I can. Hopefully I'll be able to save up and record a studio album asap. peace.

Story behind the song
written for a friend who was in 'the valley of decision'. I could relate to the frustration of trying to steer your life in the right direction.
Lyrics
I Can't Stay Here originally written Nov. 1999 revisited Nov. 2004 -a song for Nat. Tryin' to find a reason in this town it's like swimming in my head and when I finally choose the path I, can't return again But now you know I'm thankful that I've been here We've traveled so far, over highest hurdles, You carry me there's so many changes, so many dangers, I can't see and it's a long road But Now I see that it's alright Love will find a way and as I wait for You tonight and I pray that when I get there, You'll be there, with me I know I need more patience, I need more faith, I feel life passing by me But I know You gave life, that I might live not to be alone, so, something must give. I need another point of view I know that I can't stay here Lord I need another point of view I know that I can't stay the way I am
