Form A Line

This upbeat song has more energy and less sweetness (than my last wedding song) and will get everyone crowding the dance floor dancing vigorously singing and shouting along with the band.

I wrote a song for a wedding this year that was light and airy and sweet. I imagined the young newlyweds dancing to it. [on another planet]. The real wedding dances were very different and everyone was crowding the dance floor. They all knew the melodies and lyrics and sang along while dancing vigorously. I was impressed that a wedding song needs to have more energy, less sweetness, a simpler melody, and lyrics everyone would sing. After finishing this song I needed a title. I remembered John Travolta as the Angel Michael (1996) saying that when he first came to earth everyone was just milling around. Michael told them to “Form a Line”.

Better Days

There has been a lot going on in the last 6-months. What seems to be an upheaval in societal relations may be part of a natural evolution of human thought. Better Days by Doxter S provides a musical representation of these troubled times.

The melody is in a minor key that adds pathos to the relevant lyrics. Despite the melancholy there is also great hope. The song begins and ends with the word “Pray”. There is hope fore redemption in this prayer. There is optimism for humanity.

Connection

Connection by Doxter S is a love song in Em that starts out slow but will quickly get your heart beating double time. The acoustic bass and Violoncello are both melodic and percussive, with the piano bass providing gentle arpeggios of the simple chord progressions. The lyrics include a syncopated vocal echo of the phrase “I know” that is set up first by the pizzicato violoncello.

Masquerade

There was never a time in recent memory when everyone we know suddenly become phantoms, as we are to them. The entire world placed on a curfew, lock down, socially distanced and emotionally isolated. The impact of recent events will far outlast the so called invisible enemy of which we have become terrified. Masquerade by Doxter S tells the story from an all too familiar perspective. We are all trapped but desperately crave freedom. The melody is sweet but the lyrics are biting. The chord changes build up to an emotionally charged bridge and defiant chorus.

Handmaiden

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

Details

Details by Doxter S 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.

Bargain

Bargain by Doxter S is a soulful and lamenting song about a love that is well beyond it’s Sell-By Date. The theme is reflective of the happier early years of romance that give way with time to eventual resentment and the ultimate demise of the relationship. Bargain by Doxter S refers to a Lover’s Bargain that exists in many idealized love affairs that seems to ignore the true risks and realities of life and love. This lover’s lament is in the style of a ballad in 6/8 rhythm accompanied by piano, pedal steel guitar, fiddle, banjo, and violoncello.

Butterfly

Butterfly by Doxter S 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’m addicted to you … Ooh … Ooh … Ooh
Tell me why, tell me why I can’t ignore you, be alone at night, be without you
Now I find, I must try to steal away time, always on my mind, you have made me blind
Your laugh your smile I linger a while, your lips and your voice they leave me no choice
I’m trapped by you, can’t you see … That’s what you did to me I’m addicted to
your hands your touch I need them so much I feel I can’t breathe the moment you leave I can’t wean myself from you … there’s nothing I can do
I’m addicted to you … Ooh … Ooh … Ooh
You are like, you are like that magic potion, Number Nine of Love, and emotion
Even now, I know better than to follow, I have lost my will, I must have my fill
Your clothes your smell I’m under your spell your neck and your arm I’m trapped by your charm a thigh you brush up to mine … tingles run up my spine I’m addicted to
your hands your touch I need them so much I feel I can’t breathe the moment you leave I can’t wean myself from you there’s nothing I can do
I’m addicted to you … Ooh … Ooh … Ooh
Your head your face your warming embrace your hair and your eyes so bright and so wise I feel it down to the bone … I can’t leave you alone I’m addicted to
your hands your touch I need them so much I feel I can’t breathe the moment you leave I can’t wean myself from you … there’s nothing I can do I’m addicted to you
I’m addicted to you … Ooh … Ooh … Ooh
I’m addicted to you

Amazing by Doxter S on Spotify

Amazing by Doxter S on Spotify

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. Amazing by Doxter S is one of 73 original songs available for streaming on Spotify and Apple Music.

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

Alleluia
Ahh Ahh Ahh Amen

Dorian by Doxter S on Spotify

Dorian by Doxter S on Spotify

Dorian by Doxter S is one of 73 original songs available for streaming on Spotify and Apple Music

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 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

Pray
At night I pray for better days
We turned around and lost our way
It's getting darker every day

The world is colder
There is no room for compromise
If we could open up our eyes
We'd see the sun about to rise

Through stormy weather
New days are dawning
We stand together
A new belonging

It won't take long
To make things right for every wrong
We must remain steadfast and strong
Before a storm there is a calm

Let's come together
We still have choices
If we sing proudly
They'll hear or voices

So let us pray
Pray for a life of better days
Days filled with love
Love and respect in every way

We must stay strong
And everything will be Okay
It won't be long
Before we see some better days

[Bridge]

When we were younger
We were much stronger
We had no hunger
Not any longer

Stand side by side
Without the prejudice and pride
We need our goals to be allied
Let's put our politics aside

We stand together
We are united
Out human spirit
Is reignited

So let us pray
Pray for a life of better days
Days filled with love
Love and respect in every way

We must stay strong
And everything will be Okay
It won't be long
Before we see some better days

So let us pray

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
