You can't know how good the vibe is unless you hear it. Im all about the music. Constructive criticism is welcomed. Im always down for making the sound better.
Started out playing rhythm guitar in New York for the reggae group Lion Force in the early 80s. Toured the US extensively for 7 years doing gigs in various cities and colleges.The band lasted until the beginning of the 90s. After the break up I turned to production which I continue to do now on a daily basis.

Lyrics
[Intro Ad Lib] oh baby, oh baby [Verse 1] Forever don't feel so long with you Every moment feels like new Through the fears and through the tears i've been searching all these years Now that i'm in your embrace i don't feel the weight i used to face You've got my heart on lock and i wont be holding nothing back [Chorus] If the world stops turning I'll still be holding your hand Here's something i want you to understand If the world stops turning and everything falls apart there'll be a place for you in my heart If the world stops turning I'll still be holding your hand Here's something i want you to understand If the world stops turning and everything falls apart there'll be a place for you in my heart [Verse 2] There's no way i can go on without you You're the strength that pulls me through You're the one my heart runs to when I'm weak, when I'm bruised You're the light i can't lose I wake up everyday hoping you'd be here counting all the moments, wishing you were near Still thinking of you and making it clear [Chorus] If the world stops turning i'll still be holding your hand Here's something i want you to understand If the world stops turning and everything falls apart there'll be a place for you in my heart If the world stops turning i'll still be holding your hand Here's something i want you to understand If the world stops turning and everything falls apart there'll be a place for you in my heart [Bridge] Even when night feels colder than the day and every road i walk just leads me astray i'll still be standing, i won't let go cause you're that love i'm proud to show [Chorus] If the world stops turning i'll still be holding your hand Here's something i want you to understand If the world stops turning and everything falls apart there'll be a place for you in my heart If the world stops turning i'll still be holding your hand Here's something i want you to understand If the world stops turning and everything falls apart there'll be a place for you in my heart [Outro Ad Lib] If the world stops turning if the world stops turning if the world stops turning if the world stops turning
