Halloween Costume
03:14

Candles burn and brighten up this evening
You’re like a rushing wind, oh darling please breathe in
History is all that I believe in
As every season changes the seasoning
I have had my fill of beet and pumpkin soup
Highlighted a rimshot of this drumming loop
My life’s not really thrilling that’s what I assume
Since I wear this villain halloween costume
Soon... there will be love
There will be us
They will be loved
It’s morn’ and all the candles burned out long before
You’re all I have been searching and been longing for
Sing along with every song they call folklore
As long as you don’t clap your hands to call for an encore
Somewhere in my mind I met that certain girl
It took a bit of time so let’s get personal
You get the pitch right and I sing out of tune
Just open melodyne or even autotune
The music biz which is so darn deceitful
Will soon be loved
The songs I sing I’ve stolen from The Beatles
Will soon be loved
Jar Jar Binks, the Gungans and the prequels
Will soon be loved
Even Free Jazz and hurt people who hurt people
Will soon be loved

Autumn Falls

Dropping a line
Just make it rhyme
Making up lies
I can’t memorize
Getting it wrong
Another damn song
Paying my dues
No money to lose
Just like a fork in a world of spoons
I take a walk on this big balloon
Seasons just pass
To see them flash past
As autumn falls
And leaves fields of gold
I see how time just flies by
As autumn leaves
And rain falls in sheets
I’ll be right by your side
Dropping a brick
Gimme a kick
Bored to death
Couldn’t care less
Getting it done
That other damn song
Paying my way
In cultural decay

Ode To Oh

How I used to hike along the shore
Take me back to where I was before
Singing oh...
I’m afraid of the chances I won’t take
On a scale of 1 to 10 it’s 9.8
Singing oh...
There might be light
All through the night
I might get used to it sometime
I might get up
Oh my god
I made up stories to make up my mind
And fall for it when my mind is right
Singing oh...
I am tired of the mails that I receive
My entire love belongs to you, oh my delete
Singing oh...

Forever Ago
03:28
|

I might just pick you up
If you could break my heart
Come on and make me see
Your favourite melody
Melt all weapons, build guitars
Danger threatens, just make love
Change the course and change the chords
Wherever you go
Whatever you want
I’ll be there
Whenever or so
Forever ago
Here and everywhere
And so it all begins again
Push me every now and then
Autumn falls as winter calls
I might just pick you up
And take you back to the start

GREGOR McEWAN Leer, Germany
"These are obscenely expertly performed songs, an essence. Maybe Gregor McEwan has never before presented his art with this kind of focus. These tunes are a sensation! All this adrenaline, this joy, this melancholy inundating the listener. This is what this kind of music should be about - and nothing else. Every time I listen to it I am exhausted. Thank you for that!" (Linus Volkmann) ... more
