Since I started this Journey of Music , I was always Amazed at what Music I found to produce. Mixed in with all the Gothic and Alternative Music i do, was a Selection of what i call "Alternative Country". Stuff that aint quite Country and aint quite Gothic. Well I'd never quite done anything with these songs, so I thought as a Special Giveaway Promotion, I would put together a CD , of Work that would chart the Journey from the very First Track to the Last , over a two year span. These Tracks would go on the CD as they were Originally Recorded,with later Mixes sounding Fresher as the CD played through. At first i thought No one is gonna buy this idea, and may put People off. </span></em></strong></p><p><strong><em><span style="font-size: small;">TOMBSTONE </span></em></strong></p><p><strong><em><span style="font-size: small;">I Anounced the Release as a November Giveaway, and all those Folkz that would like a copy , i could mail out to People free, thinkin it would be a Dead End.I posted Preview Tracks for People to listen to and Judge for themselves. The Response i got back was Amazin, and to this very day i am still being asked for these tracks.</span></em></strong></p><p><strong><em><span style="font-size: small;">I can Remember the first time i released " Tombstone". I actually promoted it as Country. One of the Reviews came back as " This aint Country Kid, and the Songs you've released are'nt worthy of that Genre". " Your like a Runaway Train " Lol ( I wrote a Song called Runaway Train after that ) But they are what they are Folkz, i make no claims as to what they are , but I am proud of them. It is a Continualy Amazing Journey to me,with many Twists and Turns along the way, Would I change anything ? No i dont think so, I wouldnt be Me if i did. </span></em></strong></p><p><strong><em><span style="font-size: small;">If Folkz enjoy em as much as I do creating em, then that makes the walk all the better, and Me one step closer to a Dream

I have always used Music as a Form of Theropy, and I do consider myself very lucky that i can use this outlet to filter Emotion. The Fun songs tend to be Ideas you have at the drop of a Hat , so to speak and are usually from that little place inside that contain fond Memories and such. Sometimes you have to wander that little bit further to find a song, and re-visit places you didnt think you would be going back to, thats just the way it is. I tend to feel once those words or Music are Created it helps towards the Healing process for you have a Document to look back on and hear , and know you've moved forward. </em></strong></span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;"><strong><em>" Your Illusion" for me does just that. It took me to Problems that i was dealing with on a Daily basis. I think life at times can be very tough, and the Obsticles we have can be many fold. This song allowed me to shed some of those feelings for a brief moment, but have something to show for it. The Vocals are almost Whispered, as if to reflect a state of Rememberance. Again although very much taken from a Darker place, the words speak of being able to walk along side of Memories, rather than let them take over your Life. </em></strong></span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;"><strong><em>We walk past Victims of fates cruel game every single day of our lives. Others that have fallen in some way, the Homeless, and Folkz that have nothing. Sometimes you find it in your Heart to offer some Token of help for these Souls, other Times we walk on by. I tried to think of, What if it were me , would i walk past me ? </em></strong></span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;"><strong><em>I feel out of all the songs iv'e written on this Journey, this for me is a Reminder, that, however Bad i feel things get in Life, in Love, as long as i can still hold one Memory, and the Elements that make me who i am, then theres always a Tomorrow, No matter how much we try to hold Time. </em></strong></span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;"><strong><em>No matter how much we miss the ones we lose, they Forever walk this Journey with us. Lift us when we fall, and smile when we do well. xx</em></strong></span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;"><strong><em>Morrigan ~"~</em></strong></span></p>

So often in life you get a chance to work in a way that really does make waves. Back in 2009 i had the chance of working with one of my best Friends in Music, Mr.BillyD. From the first time i heard "Taking Control" i knew we were gonna see Great things from this Man. </em></strong></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong><em>I'd had the chance to work with Bill on a track called "Relax your Mind". It was a test Collab really, because niether of us was really sure if our Styles would Gel. We had a feeling, but not sure ,so we tested the waters. After the Initial release of "Relax your Mind" and the open Arms with which it was recieved, it kinda shocked me to learn that not only was Bill a lover of Soul and R'nB, he also had a Darker side to his voice. He'd put together a backing Track of Strings and Beat, that as soon as i heard it was instantly hooked.</em></strong></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"> <strong><em>It didnt take long for the Track itself to be fleshed out with Bass line , Guitar, and a sweet bit of Pump Organ. With extra Choral line swirling in the background , it was Dark Romance of Sound that i kept listening to alot throughout the Project. </em></strong></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong><em>I guess you could say i have a very Strange voice at times,my usual Gothic style of singing is a cross between a Gothic Elvis meets Vile Valo Hhahaa , but thats just the way it makes me feel 
So for me the Melody was a cool deal. For me it is BillyD that completes this Song because the Touches he added are like Gold. The Echoing of the Main Vocal Lines , the High Harmonies, the Presence is all Bill. I was blown away when he sent the track back to me. </em></strong></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong><em>If you've never Expirenced working with someone, or singing a Duet, it is an Experience I really Recommend, because the Twists and Turns a Project can take is Amazing, and can leave you shocked at what yu can produce. The rest as the say is History....</em></strong></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong><em>BillyD is a Fantastic Guy to work with, one of the best. Good both in and out, and its been such a pleasure to walk along side of him for these years. To me "Twilight" will always be one of those Memorys i take with me forever, and i believe we broke down the walls of Genre the day we released it, and created a piece of History for those Brave enough to embrace ........" Twilight" </em></strong></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong><em>BillyD Music©/Ravenz~Heart© 2009-2011</em></strong></span></p>
