Mountain by Doxter S on Spotify

Crimson Studios proudly announces a New Release – Mountain by Doxter S. This is the 62nd original song by Doxter S.

Listen to Mountain by Doxter S.

“We were seated at a local Family Restaurant in McLean, Virginia and noticed the middle of the benches were higher. We laughed because we have a similar hump in the middle of our well used bed at home. I described it as a Mountain between us and we both laughed.”

“I decided that was enough to write a song describing the way couples can become separated even when they are together. This is a very soulful, melancholy love song that I sing with acoustic guitar.”

Lyrics

There's a mountain, it's been growing in between for many years 
Rising up with our emotions, made of sorrow, threats, and tears 
I have tried to climb it many times to reach the other side 
Where you lay in waiting silently inside a shell of pride 
 
Well I know that mountain rises up because we stay apart 
It's because I don't express myself, don't show what's in my heart 
Had we spent more time together, in a lover's warm embrace 
We'd be laying in the valley of a very fertile place 
 
Our love can't redeem us. It's like  
Mars approaching Venus 
Like a spiral that keeps spinning in my head 
Baby we got, maybe, we got time 
 
I had not foreseen this, there's a  
Mountain in between us 
Like that hump that's in the middle of our bed 
Babe we got a long long way to climb 
 
Well I should have told you long ago, I should have found a way 
I drew strength from you, the things you do, the gentle words you say 
I was frightened by your honesty, your passion and your drive 
I'm embarrassed by my cowardice with no will to survive 
 
Even when I cannot speak, it's  
when my spirit's feeling weak,  
I bow my head and I begin to pray 
Praying like a pilgrim at the wall 
 
So we lay in silence, hoping  
there's no pain or violence, I just  
can't reach out to you in any way 
Babe that mountain's grown to be so tall 

Amazing by Doxter S on Apple Music

Amazing by Doxter S is an upbeat revival style song that echoes the traditional song Amazing Grace in one refrain, but has it’s own upbeat character that will bring the entire congregation to its feet.

Everyone is familiar with the original Christian Hymn “Amazing Grace” written in the 18th century by Anglican clergyman John Newton. The inspiration for the lyrics was a near death experience sailing on a slave trade ship during a violent storm in 1748. He prayed to God for salvation and redemption and experienced an awakening of his religious convictions.

The melody, composed by American composer William Walker, sung in the Major Pentatonic Scale, later became a popular song used by the Baptist and Methodist evangelical preachers in the Southern United States. The tune is often played with Bagpipes at solemn occasions, such as funerals.

Vocal recordings of “Amazing Grace” became common, with Aretha Franklin becoming one of the more famous performers of this song.

Doxter S has taken inspiration from “Amazing Grace” to create a totally new and original song simply entitled “Amazing”. Sung by a choir, with instrumental accompaniment, Amazing by Doxter S picks up the tempo and lifts the spirit even higher than ever before possible.

Amazing by Doxter S uses pounding percussion, lively hand claps, a variety of spiritual verses, and unforgettable chorus sections. The church organ, electric bass, and electric piano join tied percussion section in support of the choir. The effect is, in a word, Amazing!

LYRICS

Lost but now I'm found  
Oh how sweet the sound  
 
I once was lost but I turned myself around  
I was blind but all at once I can see  
Amazing Grace you have given me a place  
The entire human race destiny  
 
Alleluia 
Amazing Grace how sweet the sound  
That saved a wretch like me 
Alleluia  
I once was lost but now I'm found  
I was blind but now I see  
 
Saved a wretch like me  
Blind but now I see  
 
There is a spark that illuminates the dark  
It lies deep within your heart set it free  
A brilliant light so magnificent and bright  
Like a beacon in the night all can see  
 
Revelation 
Jubilation 
 
Lost but now I'm found  
Oh how sweet the sound  
 
Touched by the love of the presence from above 
Gentle hand that reaches in to my soul 
Amazing Grace I accept your warm embrace  
Let my being become part of the whole 
 
Saved a wretch like me  
Blind but now I see   
 
We're not alone You can feel it in the bone 
Our salvation at this moment sublime 
Raise you hands high praise the spirit in the sky 
Seek redemption from the pure and divine 
 
Revelation 
Jubilation 
 
Lost but now I'm found  
Oh how sweet the sound  
Saved a wretch like me  
Blind but now I see

Da Boom by Doxter S on Spotify

Lyrics

Move to the beat, dancing to Da Boom, and swing it! 

Shuffle your feet, prance around the room

Now let your arms do the work, swimming through the air

Then make your whole body jerk, shimmy everywhere

And when the beat gets fat, tip your hat, bow to the applause

Ba Da Boom

Stretch out a leg, let it touch the floor, then tap it

Don’t make it vague, let it tap some more

Rise up from down on your knees, spinning on your feet

Then put your hands in the air, waving to the beat

Now throw your head way back, make a laugh, dance arround the room

Ba Da Boom

Ba Da Boom, you get into the groove

The music fills the room, so let your body move

You can’t resist the beat, you must pick up your feet

And dance the night away, until the day breaks Baby

Ba Da Boom will change your attitude

It doesn’t matter whom, it puts you in the mood

With everyone you meet, you just pick up your feet

And dance the night away, come what may

Dancing to Da Boom

Ba Da Boom

Reach out a hand, any one will do, then snap it

At your command, dancing to Da Boom

Now spin around like a top, synchronize your move

The steady beat doesn’t stop, staying in the groove

Just like a chorus line, marking time, makes you want to shout

Ba Da Boom

Ba Da Boom, you get into the groove

The music fills the room, so let your body move

You can’t resist the beat, you must pick up your feet

And dance the night away, until the day breaks Baby

Ba Da Boom will change your attitude

It doesn’t matter whom, it puts you in the mood

With everyone you meet, you just pick up your feet

And dance the night away, come what may

Dancing to Da Boom

Dorian by Doxter S on Apple Music 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 Apple Music

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

Handmaiden by Doxter S on Apple Music is a fanciful tale of a young romantic renaissance teenager.

This is the 70th original song written, recorded, and produced by Doxter S since 2012.

The melody is in the Key of A with Mixolydian scale. The intro and bridges are simple arpeggios of this scale. The instruments include strings, harp, hand percussion, tambourine, and triangle. The setting is in a Tudor Garden in Renaissance England.

Lyrics

Just seventeen, the handmaiden to The Queen 
Was out strolling though the gardens of Tudor 
Daydreaming now, she performs a royal bow 
She is dancing at the ball with her suitor 
 
She's twirling higher, higher, higher in the air 
She's twirling higher, higher, higher lady fair 
 
A lowly Squire is her object of desire, and she 
Hopes that he will spy on her dancing 
Handsome and bold, if the truth were to be told 
He will be a knight one day, she must fancy 
 
He'll take her higher, higher, higher in the air 
He'll take her higher, higher, higher lady fair 
 
Caught in her dreams, the young squire so it seems 
Has arrived upon the scene with a stallion 
A winged steed they both mount him as he kneels 
All at once the three take wing like a falcon  
 
They're soaring higher, higher, higher in the air 
They're soaring higher, higher, higher Lady Fair 
 
They're soaring higher, higher, higher than the trees 
They're soaring higher, higher, higher than the clouds 
They're soaring higher, higher, higher than the moon 
They're soaring higher, higher, higher than the stars 

Sounds like Enya, Secret Garden, Sinead O’Connor

An animated music video is currently in the works at Crimson Studios in McLean, Virginia.

Butterfly by Doxter S on Spotify

Butterfly by Doxter S on Apple Music started out sounding like a nursery rhyme song. The opening melody is very fanciful and sweet. The quintessential nature of the butterfly is her transformation from caterpillar during metamorphosis. This transformation needed expression in music.

The Butterfly in this song continues her transformation into a human social butterfly. The melody also changes abruptly to reflect the new and exciting life she is seeking. The backing of the violoncello transforms into an overdrive electric guitar with percussion from a full drum set.

Lyrics

I am just a butterfly  Feel Free  
Painted wings on purple flowers  Real Me  
I emerge from my cocoon  Hide Me  
After all the April showers  Seek Me  
You will see me flutter by  Hold Me  
In the garden there for hours  Feel Me  
 
But when I'm in the mood  
I shed my innocence  
I’ll dance around the moon  
I only need the chance  
 
Butterfly Butterfly trying to multiply  
Everyone satisfy on my mind in my eye  
I go out in the night everything is alright  
As I dance in the light of the moon  
I'm a Butterfly just a Butterfly  
I'm a Butterfly of the Night  
 
I'm a social butterfly  Friendly  
Painted lips and big eyelashes  Lovely  
I won't stay inside my room  Lonely  
Grab my phone and my Sunglasses  Meet Me  
Everybody passing by  Find Me  
Turn their heads to watch me dancing  See Me  
 
And if I'm in the mood  
I lose my innocence and  
Dance around the room  
I go into a trance  
 
Butterfly Gratify Please be my Alibi  
Private eye Counterspy Don't need to justify  
Butterfly Lullaby Mystify Me  
 
Butterfly Butterfly trying to multiply  
Everyone satisfy on my mind in my eye  
I go out in the night everything is alright  
As I dance in the light of the moon  
I'm a Butterfly just a Butterfly  
I'm a Butterfly of the Night  
 
Butterfly Gratify Please be my Alibi  
Private eye Counterspy Don't need to justify  
Butterfly Lullaby Mystify Me 
 
I am just a butterfly  Feel Free  
Painted wings on purple flowers  Real Me
