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
Stepping Out of My Skin by Dawn Sinclair I daresay he had a bad day no-one’s immune we’ve all felt that way and I don’t know his name but it’s too late now ‘cause it turns out the same and my game’s up anyhow I’m stepping out of my skin standing apart, out of my skin out of my heart ********* I was ok not great but ok working my way up did I hear him say he couldn’t hack this life cuz no one cared so he hacked with a knife and I bled, I bled now I’m stepping out of my skin leaving it whole out of my sin nothing but soul ********* solo ********* I didn’t ask for this it wasn’t me in the wrong place then when I didn’t see oh yeah that was me I’m stepping out of my skin floating up there out of my skin going nowhere I’m stepping out of my skin floating up there out of my skin going nowhere

Hey hon, Wow, you're quick! Another great collab with Mark. Man, I thought 50 was good, what are you on now, 150? LOL! This one is another outstanding musical composition, like I am used to expecting from Mark. And your lyrics fit just perfectly as always. I can barely keep up with you all! That's quite alright though, keep the music coming! hugs, Amy

Another Mark's masterpiece.Quite different sound and partly arrangment from Mark's signature-style,-reminds me,for some reasons,"Simple Minds" whose approach I really liked alot.Lyrics is up to the notch,with memorable hook,original theme and down-to-the -earth prob,that's really easy to relate to for almost everyone.Your lyrics has an universal appeal here,-which is great. Thumbs up! Luv it!
