Broken Gates

I joined Mixposure years ago.

I was an amateur.

Still, the people who decide here granted me Song of the Week.

I was so happy.

Years later, I am still learning.

Sometimes music does express the heart.

I have eyesight damage just now so I'm mainly working as a songwriter, but I am very glad to have such excellent artists to collaborate with.

They prefer I don't say who they are, but we invite you to guess as you will probably hear their work elsewhere.

The lyrics are all mine and I do contribute to the music.

My influences in the world of music are:

Leonard Cohen, Bob Marley, Tinita Tikaram,

plus also, L.v. Beethoven, W. A. Mozart, Gregorio Allegri, and many others from the properly disciplined renaissance era have encouraged me to keep studying.

Love is a beautiful thing, the world is a terrible place, perseverance is a good thing.

Best wishes and respect to all.
