I wrote this song to express the physical and emotional journey I’ve been through this year due to a series of operations and medical issues, making a metaphorical comparison between my own life force and that of a river system that’s been critical to the development of human civilisation. The Euphrates River is one of the most important water systems in recorded history. Located at the very heart of the Middle East, the river system fed farmable land in the fertile crescent, which became the roots of human civilization with the rise of the Mesopotamians and Sumerians. Over the past decades, the flow in the Euphrates River system has decreased to almost half of the average annual flow during dry years and now the water levels are at one of their lowest points in recorded history. Nevertheless, the forces of nature will eventually win out, and the river will live on.

When I was a teenager, I was intrigued by David Bowie’s constantly changing stage persona and the way he blurred the gender lines. I wrote this song at that time, as a tribute to his lifestyle choices and fearlessness in expressing his controversial views. He led the way in popularising gender diversity, which is mainstream now but radical back then. I thought he’d always be with us. I was sadly wrong, but he lives on in his music and videos. Bowie used Japan as a constant source of inspiration for his look, performance and music so I used AI generated, manga style graphics to illustrate the video. #midjourney @Pika_Labs , #pikalabs, #chatbot , #aichatbots , #davidbowie, #genderdiversity, #bowie, #ziggystardust, #manga, #anime MUSIC CREDIT: Another Story, by Torn Chorus Recorded and engineered at TC Studios, Auckland Music track is available on all major streaming platforms, such as Spotify, Apple, Tidal, etc. You can find the links here: https://artists.landr.com/055855359803 WEBSITE: www.tornchorus.com VIDEO CREDITS: Video by Franklin Davis shot on Sony FDR-AX53 camera.

Back to my acoustic roots for this one, using a combination of different guitar tracks and mandolin. When I was growing up, I always assumed that mankind was getting smarter and more civilised as technology developed. We would soon be driving around in flying cars, solve our global problems and live in harmony. But now I look back on our progress and the state of the world today, it looks like we keep making the same mistakes over and over again. Same old conflicts, same old prejudices, rampant pollution and no sign of international harmony. The ultimate lost opportunity! I used historical paintings as linking theme for the video, modifying them a little using Midjourney and then animating them with Pika Labs AI technology. See which paintings you can recognize. #midjourney @Pika_Labs , #pikalabs #chatbot , #aichatbots , #worldpeace #stopthehate #stopwar #stopfighting #newdawn MUSIC CREDIT: Turn Back History, by Torn Chorus Recorded and engineered at TC Studios, Auckland Music track is available on all major streaming platforms, such as Spotify, Apple, Tidal, etc. You can find the links here: https://artists.landr.com/064837441436 WEBSITE: www.tornchorus.com VIDEO CREDITS: Video by Franklin Davis shot on Sony FDR-AX53 camera.

This song brings back the big band sound, a feel-good, bluesy ballad that celebrates the joy of playing in a big ensemble, layering vocal harmonies over riffs from bass, guitars and horn section. My aim was to evoke the classic R&B/rock sounds from artists such as Van Morrison, Boz Scaggs, Chicago and David Bowie, and give them a contemporary twist. Thanks go to PIKA LABS (@pika_labs) for bringing to life my AI-generated backing band, which I'm calling "The New Shadows", for obvious reasons. #theshadows #bigband #midjourney @Pika_Labs , #pikalabs #chatbot , #aichatbots #thenewshadows MUSIC CREDIT: Sing for You, by Torn Chorus Recorded and engineered at TC Studios, Auckland Music track is available on all major streaming platforms, such as Spotify, Apple, Tidal, etc. You can find the links here: https://artists.landr.com/064837149790 WEBSITE: www.tornchorus.com VIDEO CREDITS: Video by Franklin Davis shot on Sony FDR-AX53 camera.

I wrote the lyrics to this song a long time ago but I’ve only now completed the musical arrangement. Fast forward 40 years and the message is still relevant, in fact even more so. We seem to be consuming more plastic and processed foods than ever. If you like music videos and songs about our environment, please like and subscribe. I experimented with a new instrument on this track – the first time I’ve played a mandolin. It certainly takes the sound in a new direction and there are some special effects in the vocal to give a robotic effect. You will also see that I’ve combined live footage with AI generated photos and video clips.

The sun brings warmth and light into our lives. Without it, we could not survive. It is also a wonderful, clean source of power, which we need to harness more fully to help secure the future of our civilisation. I created this song and video to highlight the wonder of the sun and celebrate the spectacular beauty of southern light, showing landscapes and cityscapes in Aotearoa during sunrise and sunset.

For those who would like to see a video of me just playing and singing the whole song. No frilly bits. I used a 12 string Rickenbacker electric guitar to lay down the basic rhythm for the song, layered with tones from my Gibson Les Paul to clarify the tune and underpin the bass line. The Les Paul was also used for the solo guitar parts.

I’m sure that most of us have experienced the feelings conveyed in this song at some time or other, especially in the last few years. The need to escape from a stressful situation, get out of lockdown, or just get a small taste of freedom by letting go. There are some iconic escape and chase scenes in the video. See if you can spot them.

I am pleased to introduce my new single and the video for "No Other Love". I call this my homage to the early music of the Beatles, as well as to the catchy, guitar-driven pop music of the Swinging 60’s & the Summer of Love era. I hope you enjoy the catchy lyrics and video!
