Details by Doxter S on Apple Music is a Jazz-Blues song in Em that tells an ages-old story about the morning after – with a hangover of epic proportion. The instrumental phrasing alternates between keyboard and guitar. The rhythm is syncopated with the bass and piano echoing each other. The outro repeats the final statement of the chorus.

Details by Doxter S is number 69 of 73 new and original music written, recorded, and produced at Crimson Studios.

Lyrics

You wake up from another party smoked and drank all night 
Your head is spinning, ears are ringing, eyes can't stand the light 
Remember music getting louder, dancing, doing lines of powder 
Met a woman with her date. You got into a fight. 
 
You had too many cocktails. You went too far. It's time for you to go. 
The Devil's in the Details. She's pulling all the strings now. Don't You Know? 
 
She may have been your soulmate, or your fantasy I guess 
A curvy shape with lengthy legs wrapped in a satin dress 
A pretty face with hair like flame, but you just can't recall her name 
A sexy voice and flirting eyes, she made your mind a mess 
 
You've fallen off of the rails. You won't get far. You don't know where to go. 
The Devil's in the Details. She's pulling all the strings now. Don't You Know? 
 
Instrumental 
 
She's just another female. You've come this far. You don't have far to go. 
The Devil's in the Details. She's pulling all the strings now. Don't You Know? 
 
You try to find your pants and shoes you're in a strange hotel 
Misplaced your keys and wallet and you start to feel unwell 
There's water's running in the shower, shampoo scent of spice and flower 
Just a silhouette of her you've fallen in her spell 
 
Attempting to escape fails. But you're not trapped. You got nowhere to go. 
The Devil's in the Details. She's pulling all the strings now. Don't You Know?

Crimson Studios is proud to announce a New Release | Stay by Doxter S. This is the 57th original song written by Doxter S and produced at Crimson Studios in McLean, Virginia. Now available for streaming on Spotify.

This beautiful love song in G-Major can be performed by either female or male lead. A piano provides the foundation. The cello and contrabass alternate legato and pizzicato. There is syncopation between the instrument voices.​

The instrumental intro, with piano, cello, and contrabass, is happy. The melody for the first and second verse, sung by Sara, is plaintive. Each verse has a tension building bridge. The second verse follows the first bridge immediately. (The original score separated them with a repeat of the intro).​

The chorus is commanding, strong, with a positive vibe. The use of the B-Major in a single phrase of the chorus adds unexpected urgency to the lyrics. (This production was transposed to D-Major, so F-Major provides the tension). ​

The first and second chorus are separated by a vocalized version of the intro melody. This is again upbeat, happy. The second chorus has different lyrics. Following the second chorus is a repeat of the instrumental intro. The song ends with a repeat of the first chorus on a happy note. ​

Dorian by Doxter S on Spotify is now available for streaming.

Oscar Wilde, the nineteenth century Irish romantic poet and playwright, is probably most famous for his novel “The Picture of Dorian Gray”. The Faustian story line relates to a full length portrait of the eponymous Dorian who makes a wish that his portrait would age instead of himself. ​

Dorian by Doxter S on Spotify

Dorian by Doxter S is a fantastical interpretation in music of this Gothic theme. Dorian appears at various times and places chasing after a dream-like companion. The mood is mysterious, the music intoxicating, and at the end Dorian and the music fades away.​

Lyrics

Lived so long, seen it all, Dorian, you don't age

The first time he walked into the place
Was a different man, a different face
People drifting in people drifting out then he heard the sound of a woman shout
Just exactly like in that dream he had that has set the music on fire

The next thing he knew he’s on the stage
With a different girl, a different age
Dancing to the rhythm all syncopating a pounding beat was intoxicating
He felt his heart was alive again it was burning with desire

She had fiery eyes and glowing face
They we're in a passionate embrace
He could smell the scent of her sweet perfume as they danced in circles all around the room
There was music playing inside his head and his mind was all in a daze

They were headed through an open door
Walked into a room he’d seen before
There were velvet curtains all in a line flowing burgundy like a Bordeaux wine
Then they started running with hand in hand through a never ending maze

Lived so long, seen it all, Dorian, you don't age
Hear my song, Dorian, hear the words of the Sage

Now they’re in the palace at Versailles
In a ballroom lined with mirrored tile
Marie Antoinette and The Brothers Grim as Rasputin laughed with his wicked grin
As the music waned and the pictured face Dorian is fading to grey

And he wondered if it ends this way in a
Different place on a different day there was
More to see there was more to do only time would tell change his point of view
See it's relative if you make it last Dorian was fading fast

Dorian turning grey as your mind fades away
Hear my song let it play won't be long fades away
Won't be long fades away
