New Year's Resolutions
03:19

No fireworks
No kids get hurt
No whining cats and dogs
No fire runs
No worried mums
No stupid fisticuffs
No filth and trash
No cars that crash
No air and noise pollution
No house in flames
No money waste
No new year’s resolutions
Let’s have a five-course meal instead
And then collapse into bed
Let’s have a bottle of champagne
Gingerbread and candy cane
Let’s have our friends around
When there are stars and waves to count
Let’s make it history
Just like James and Miss Sophie
Let’s have a good night’s rest
And then coffee and scrambled eggs
Let’s hope this year’s long gone
In memory of things to come

Sweets And Sadness

I hope you understand
I do not want to dance
Well this ain’t no excuse
I just do dancing moves
All I have is sweets and sadness
If you don’t care that’s what we’ll share tonight
It’s so damn cold outside
You can stay overnight
Let’s talk the night away
And then let come what may
All you have is sweets and sadness
If you don’t care that’s what we’ll share tonight
You said you hated lies
I said I loved your eyes
Dylan taught us faith
And Cohen love and hate
All they have is sweets and sadness
If you don’t care that’s what we’ll share tonight
Look at how it snows
Take off your winter clothes
I’ll never do you harm
But always keep you warm
All we have is sweets and sadness
If you don’t care that’s what we’ll share tonight

Winter Sleep
01:36
|
|||
|
If death is only a door
We strode through before
Time is only a trick
But I don’t get it
Snowflakes and crystals
In every distance
Fireworks and fireflies
Light up the night
If love is only a game
That has to be played
Play it with me
Until we succeed
I made three courses
Instead of buying you roses
You make me feel
Almost unreal
If life is only a dream
And not what it seems
Do not interrupt
Don’t wake me up
Pass me a mic
To sing lullabies
Sleep in peace
Sleep winter sleep

Lousy Lullaby
02:27
|
|||
|
It’s getting more and more hysterical
In this extraordinary world
Need to go to bed
No talking but voice messages
No board games but obsessive apps
Need to go to bed
Everybody’s running out of time
Trying to reach the subway line
Need to go to bed
And everyone seems oh so stressed
Burned out, scared or so depressed
Need to go to bed
There’s weak light
So be quiet
To sleep tight
And we might
Sing a lousy lullaby
A lousy lullaby
For a warm and restful sleep tonight
In this cold and peaceful wintertime

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
