--------------------------------------------
What “Karaoke Vol.1” can teach you
--------------------------------------------
Do you sing in the shower? Do you give private concerts when no one is watching? Do you dream of performing?

I did (and I love to sing in the shower:) Naturally singing from your soul is a form a creative expression. We all feel better after we put our hearts into a song, don't we? Now Karaoke Vol.1 could help you to experience this feeling of well-being more frequently, and might help you to become a better singer too.

We all sing along with our favorite artists, this is a great way to learn. But if you go one step further, you might learn so much more... I own the karaoke tracks from all my favorite singers and I've learnt so much about my voice and what it does best (especially when I record myself singing along).

Karaoke Vol.1 contains 30 original instrumental tracks, with background vocals from 4 CDs. That's over 2 hours of singing... Now you can perform the songs from...

“Soul Comfort” nominated for 2 Velocity Awards ~ 2009 Best R&B Album & Best Alternative Artist.

“Someday Peace Love & Freedom” nominated Outstanding Male Album 2004 (Out Music Awards) and winner of the Best Musical Performance at Fresh Fruit Festival.

“I've Been Waiting for You” featured at the 2001 International Fringe Festival in “The Making of the Black Man” (recipient of the Jacob A. Weiser Playwright Award).

“Coming home” peaked at #1 on the Myspace Gospel, Religious, Healing and Easy Listening Music Charts in the NY Independent categories.

All you need to do is download now and sing to your heart's content. Practice hitting all the high notes and holding the long notes, and don't forget the pretty falsetto riffs.

But don't get excited by everything you've read above... don't buy Karaoke Vol.1 now because you can pick your own price. Download these tracks now because you love to sing and you believe Karaoke Vol.1 would be beneficial to you.

Track Name: Doing m' Thing
Its Sunday morning
And I’m alone on the beach
Watching the beauty of sunrise
Wind through my hair
Caressing my face
Feeling the sand beneath my feet

Later that day
I’m walking through the park
Listening to the song on the breeze
Love is the thought
Peace in my heart
I know why

Chorus: Cause I’m doing my thing

The candles are lit
Incense stick burning
Nurturing the spirit within
Warm waters running
Sea salts are falling
Badu badu do we do be

Music is soft
Jazz to be precise
Strawberries lay in a dish
You may expect to hear someone at the door
But no tonight

Chorus: Cause I’m doing my thing
Track Name: Music
Music is the song I’m singing
Music is the way I’m giving
Music gives my life the meaning
Music makes my world go round

Music is the healer for me
Music is the love that I need
Music is a friend I turn to
Music understands me

Chorus: Yeah

Music is the space I pray in
Music is God blessing me
Music is the place I go to
When the world is stressing me

Music is the sea I swim in
Music waves wash over me
Music is the point I dream of
When I close my eyes to sleep

Chorus: Yeah

Music takes me to a world
Where I am happy, I am free
Music is the One I turn to
Music lives inside of me
Track Name: Please Comeback
I’m tired of being lonely
Even when you’re near
I’m tired of always fighting - so tired

The years have passed by
And yet we’re still together tonight
Arguing, bickering
Where did all the love we share go

Please come back
Please come back
Love our love
Please come back

I’m tired of always hiding
Even from myself
I’m tired of all the lies we’ve told us - so tired

The years have passed by
Yet we’re still alone tonight
Words of pain, tears of hate
When did all the love we share die
Track Name: Love
You’re eyes are closed
You’re next to me
Our fingers touching
Don’t fall a sleep
I want to see you nude in the moonlight
The shore is empty, this time its right

Cause you are the one for me
Baby can you see
We were meant to be
This is destiny

Our lips are tender
Our bodies close
Our hearts reaching
Who could give the most, thoughts are dancing slow
Our thighs now meet, our souls are singing, harmony sweet

Yes you are the one for me
We were meant to be
Love is in so deep
This is destiny


Love is so sweet.
Track Name: Dream
Here are your thoughts
Here is your soul
Here is the time
Here is the goal
Here is your gift
Here is your light
There is the moon and
This is the night

So what’s your desire dear?
Write it down here
Make sure its clear
This is a prayer - Yeah
Now don’t you be afraid - No no no
The power lies within the body
Hold that picture in your mind
Now close your eyes
And realize
You’ll be alright
Its starting

Chorus
So let go
And soar… spread your wings and fly away
Let go
And realize
You’ll be alright
No need to fight
Its starting

Here is your dream
Here is your life
Here is the truth and
Here is the lie
Here is your high
Here is your low
There is a way… but
Before you go

What’s your desire dear?
Write it down here
Hold it so near
Make this is your prayer - Yeah
Now don’t you be afraid- No no no
Dreams only live within your body
Hold that picture in your mind
Now close your eyes
And realize
You’ll be alright
Its starting
Track Name: James Donovan
This world shun your light
Was too bright for its eyes
Left you to grope around
In darkness
Over the years
You fought for your right
To give to receive love
Now you leave us return to the light
Body lies in the grave
No more life - no more pain.
Track Name: My Brother
My brother
I’m writing this
To tell you I love you
You showed me what true friendship means

This life is rough
But knowing you has made me better
You shared your strength

And I want you to know
Brother
You help me to grow
I thank you
Where ever you go
Always be/stay true

Sitting here
Thinking of
Tough times I came through
You were there, helped me make it through

This life gets rough
But knowing you has made me stronger
You shared your faith
Track Name: Peace & Blessings
May you laugh loudly with all your heart and soul
Ancestors grant us love
May you bless each life you touch along your path
May you overcome your pain

Chorus
Peace be unto you
Blessings in all you do

May prosperity forever be a friend of yours
Ancestors light our way
May your demons cease to scream and bring you fear
May they inspire you to grow

Chorus
Peace be unto you
Blessings in all you do

May the raindrops continue to caress your soul
Ancestors grant us peace
May you always climb the mountain of your dreams
May happiness surround you

Chorus
Peace be unto you
Blessings in all you do
Track Name: Ones of Old
The glow of 7 white candles
A circle of sea salt
Ancient words to open earth’s doors
1 drum beat dancing outside
You’ve fallen in a trance

Oh life’s burning with desire
Oh I’m speaking with the Ones of Old
Oh I’m filled with new meanings
High above this world I go
I’m seeing with new eyes now

An alter in the woods
A life misunderstood
4 symbols start with air
Water cleanse me, earth remake
Fire give me life
Track Name: Hold On
I laid in my bed last night
Starring up to the sky
The walls seem to be closing in around me
Tears welled up in the corner of my eye

Seems like these problems will never end
I need an answer - tell me when will this end

I know others looking in on me
Think that I have so much
they see all the things that I am doing
They don’t see me leaning on this crutch

Hope springs eternal as long as life lasts
But I need an answer - tell me when will this end

Hold on
Track Name: Free
Cut the strings untie the things
That keep you down, bound, facing ground
Lost now found
Undo the knot that keeps you caught
Wrought in despair, change is here
So calm your fears

No more disillusions
No more pain regrets
No more running scared when things don’t turn out right
No more sad heartbreaks
No more broke heartaches
No more wondering what will happen to me in the end

Free I want to be free

I want to soar, I want to fly
High in the sky no more to cry
Or watch love go by
One step at a time is how I’ll climb
Won’t stop until I reach the top
Track Name: Peace
What would you do if you saw 2 children arguing?
What would you do if one of them was your own?
Now what would you do if they broke out into a fight?
How long would it take for you to call for…

Peace

Would if matter which child was right or which was wrong?
Would it matter which child struck the first blow?
Would it matter which religion each child belonged to?
No it wouldn’t matter at all; you’d just want some…

Peace

Well if this is what we want for our children
Why don’t we want if for ourselves?
War is never the answer, so lift your voice and call for…

Peace
Track Name: The Beggar's Cup
I am begging at this corner
I am lying here in rags
But I don't need no money
I want something that will last

I am sitting in the sunshine
But all I feel is rain
I wish I knew the answers
So I could end this pain

Winter is coming
But I have no where to go
I hope I don't die this time around
I hope I find my way back home

Cause they say that I cannot live out here in the streets
They say this is no place for me to be
They say this box is not a home
They say that man cannot live alone

That's why my hands they are trembling
Cause I'm tired and I'm scared
Tonight my cup is empty
It hasn't been filled in years

Chorus
So put a little bit a love in my cup now
Put a little bit of love today
Put a little bit a of love in my cup
Put a little bit of love today
Track Name: Fighting for Love (The Warrior's Song)
I am a warrior preparing for war
I am a warrior I step through this door
The enemy is ignorance, the enemy is hate
I am a warrior, I’m fighting for love.
Track Name: Lost/Found
I once was lost but now I’m found
Was blind but now I see

I had been bound, my head facing down
And I stayed there out of my fear
I shut out the light, lost all my sight
Believe the lies and your soul dies

Felt like a jail, set up to fail
Glued to a box, couldn’t hear life knocks
Place I had been, knew I couldn’t win
Believe the lies and your soul dies
Track Name: Someday
Someday we’ll get together
Someday we’ll be all right
Someday we’ll stop this hatred
That’s keeping us apart

Someday we’ll know what love is
Someday we’ll lend a hand
Someday we’ll know who God is
Someday we’ll understand

Someday I’ll look into your heart
Someday you’ll look in mine
Just think of the happiness
You and I could find

Someday we’ll hug our sisters
Someday erase the scars
Someday we’ll see our brothers
Someday remove the bars
Someday we know our children
Love them for who they are
Track Name: Faithful
You told me you're broken
Told me you’re through
So much has happened don't know what to do
You've cried your last cry said your good-byes
Don't need him around just pulls you down
Have to put it all behind you leave if love's not true
He's not the one for you
He lies cheats never loves you
Shows you no respect always leaves you sitting here
Crying in a wreck

But I will be faithful

Can you find it in your heart to make a brand new start
Know that I'm here for you know that I care
Look into my eyes
What do you see
What do you feel
Do you feel how I am aching sitting here watching you cry
Can you see my heart breaking hearing you say you want to die
Can you feel the pain consuming me hearing you still love him
Can you know the anguish of my soul
Knowing that I could never say

That I will be faithful

I wish you could hear me… I'm saying I love you
I wish you could feel… I'm holding you tight
You're forever in my heart… I could never hurt you
I wish you could believe

That I will be faithful.
Track Name: Wade in the Water
Every step along your way
Will lead your closer to me
And every sound my mouth creates
Will lure you closer to me

Chorus
Wade in the water
It's really not deep
Gaze out on the ocean if only for a peak
And when you get to that side
Where you feel you have to hide
Think of cool waters- the way you made me smile
Think of soft winds- the way you felt inside

In the dark where I wait for the dawn
I will say your cognomen
And when you do perceive
I'll be hear calming your fears

Wade in the water.
Track Name: Me & U
There you are... loving
There you are... trusting
I do believe in this love we share
I have no fear now that you are here
In my life

Here I am... near you
I only live... for you
And baby I want this way I feel to never end
You're my friend until the end
End of time

So here we are... together
I am yours... forever
And up until now I never knew what love could do
It brought me you

So here we are... caring sharing loving
And until now I never knew what love could do
Me & U
We'll make it through anything.
Track Name: Come Back
I wonder
Are u asleep tonight
Asleep while the moon gives light
And my heart don't feel so right
You're not by my side
I thought of you
As the sun went away
And I can't wait 'til my night will turn again to day
I need you in my life

All the fights we had
Don't seem to be so big right now
And all the pain we shared
Is nothing like the pain I bear
So close your eyes and may you have sweet dreams
And if there's time please think of me
I'll be waiting here
'Til the morning comes

Now I know I've done you wrong
I never should have left your side
But sometimes as we look away the treasure in our palms slips away
So now as I say goodnight
On my knees in this candlelight
I'm begging you

Please come back to me.
Track Name: Waiting for You
My soul has been longing
For some belonging
Searching never found
Ever spinning round
My heart has been waiting
Anticipating
Joy truly ever flowing
Peace beyond my knowing

I’ve been waiting for you
Been up been down been all around
I yearn the warmth of your sound
I’ve been waiting for you
I hoped and prayed then cried for days
But now you’re here in me

Motion always comes to rest
Flying birds soon come to nest
Immersed in beauty void of sight
Midnight sun illuminate my night
It’s quiet here inside me
Harmony reigns over me
I come to rest within myself
Here I do belong

I’ve been waiting for you
I rest in peace my agony released
I’m sleeping in your arms
I’ve been waiting for you
Melody passes through me and I’m born again

Now I don’t care what you think about me
I only know there’s peace within my soul
Now you may choose whatever Thing that pleases you
But it won’t take my love.
Track Name: A Song For Mother
You gave me life
You held me close
A Heart of pure gold
My first breath
My first step
You watched me grow
You called my name
Goodness and light
You gave me hope
This is my song for you

The hours
The lessons
The words and the books
The questions
The answers
The knowledge- the truth
Right and wrong
You made me strong
The power in you
And this is my song for you

The prayers you prayed
The nights you stayed
Down On your knees
The tears you cried, the pain you hide
The joy that you bring
The love you give
The life you live
The truth in your goals
You’re a rose enriching my soul

I honor you
I cherish you
I lift you up
I pray for you only the best
And in the heavens above
That You will hear for eternity
This message of love
This is my song for you
