  • hmm. well this sure is something
    feels much more personal than some of my other stuff despite being more vague which would be very interesting to unpack if it wasn't my brain being unpacked lol
    demo of something I want to record properly eventually
    fun fact: the little dot of light you can see out the window is venus, which i feel is rather fitting for this one
    LYRICS:
    we built houses out of sand
    castles big and bold and grand
    but blew them away
    when morning came
    you built stations and railways
    and trains
    I longed for far off adventures
    and planes
    yet we stayed by the coast
    packed a suitcase for a ghost
    we could take-off any time you like
    I buried secrets in the dunes
    you sang a love song for the moon
    yet it sounded the same
    when morning came
    you built stations and railways
    and trains
    we hid like matches in boxes
    and caves
    full of wine and yellow light
    passing ships in the night
    I could take off anything you like
    see you now by the coast
    the one who knows me the most
    I could come back anytime you like
    sam x

    "OZYMANDIAS"
    "I met a traveller from an antique land,
    Who said-“Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
    Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand,
    Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
    And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
    Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
    Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
    The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
    And on the pedestal, these words appear:
    My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;
    Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!
    Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
    Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
    The lone and level sands stretch far away.”
    -Percy Shelley

    I worked on the computer and I played your songs in the background, which makes my work much easier. My son came into the room, he wanted to tell me that he was leaving now. I said goodbye to him but he didn't go. He asked, "Daddy, who are you listening to? I said this is Sammy, a young musician. I went back to work when my son asked," Daddy, do you like him? "Oh yes, I said, I did really like him because he touches my heart i get goosebumps everywhere... here listen to this song... and this... and this... and this... haha! i think my son forgot to go, he is still here... and you have a new fan.
    Greetings from Germany Sammy... Love You

      @D. Luce I'm listening to randomized playlists on youtube quite often. Whenever I come across a song or music I don't personally like (even though it might be a great title) I press the dislike button. That way youtube won't choose it again the next time. - I like many songs by Sammy Copley but not all of them and I think it's a great channel. So far I didn't dislike any of them but a dislike would be far from being an insult. Disliking a song doesn't take from its value.

I will definitely be listening to your other works because wowowowowoowowow this is stunning! Our story involves a king and a knight who were running heir kingdom together until a tragic end and got reincarnated thousands of years later as king and knight once again, only to find evidence of their past lives. It has such a soft spot in my heart and this song fit it so well!
