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
I Walked Away by Dawn Sinclair Hello my friend It's been such a long time I guess you've been busy in your life just like me It's good to see you in fact you take my breath away I'm wondering: maybe we should stay now just to see Perhaps it's not too late to tell you why I did what I had to do I walked away because I thought I knew that very soon you’d say we’re through That awful day, I felt my doubts were true Because you let me walk away from you And so my friend I'm trying not to show my feelings our worlds have changed and I am reeling now can this be? Now I see you And you take my breath away I'm wondering how I could persuade you To agree Could you forgive my foolish doubting And give me one more chance to say, say I walked away in case you saw me cry the salty tears that filled my eyes But as I went and left you high and dry I knew inside I'd never say goodbye I walked away without a word to you That awful day, I left you blue I walked away, yes I admit it’s true But I was drowning and I thought you knew I walked away, I walked away I was drowning and I thought you knew

Huggles babe, another brilliant offering. I listened to both versions of this and like both for different reasons. I think Coco has a production/radio edit ready sound and certainly has a lovely voice. On the other hand, I prefer Amy's version vocally, as it has that real club feel to it. Amy is much more powerful and I personally just enjoyed it a tad more. The slightly different arrangements may have had a little to do with that too.For mine, I think that both versions are crying out for some sultry saxophone backing. Again that may just be me. Full marks to yourself and Boyana on the lyrics too. All in all, two great yet differnet versions of a great track and congratulations all involved.
