Alison Fleming If you fancy an album of chill and flavor I think this is perfect. Electronic ambient very relaxing to listen to with its wash of soothing atmospheres (think Vangelis Chariots of Fire); interweaved with a cool momentum of happening 80's-like dance/pop. Riding With Nero stands as a lovely lone rock ballad showcasing John Beagley's superb range and sparkle on vocals. Thumbs up! Favorite track: Swept Away too Soon.

bobturnley777 While it's easy to hear the influence of Genesis, Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel and Marillion, John creates music those bands would have loved to have made for their own albums. Favorite track: Don't Let Go.

I wish I had told you But I was too scared You seemed out of bounds then And with out a care For my interruptions As you rode on the lanes The magic within you (two) Still haunts me today I remember the feeling Heart in my mouth Concealing my feelings I wanted to shout But I couldn’t begin to Say how I felt It just seemed unlikely And slightly absurd You were riding with Nero In your little world And I was observing What you most loved Out in the evenings Under the sun Free of your worries And anxiety You were riding with Nero Where you belonged Jumping the fences Wind in your hair Riding with Nero Smile on your face All of my dreams were Held in that place

Don't Let Go 07:05
No I cant go on Thinking i am wrong Thinking you don’t feel the same way as I do Im standing here With so much to lose Thinking i don’t want to be here in the future The chances come and the chances go And you never know till they slip through fingers If you’ve something good you should hold on tight Don’t let go of real love tonight

Show Me Love 04:35
We're living in a situation Where nothing seems to be perfect Its you and me out to sea As far as we can go I'm tired of hearing your excuses Always something and its sounding useless Remember me - I want to see A way to move from here What can we do Its all up to you If you really want to show me love Then you really gotta reach out your hand If you really want to show me love Then you really have to try to understand If you really want to show me love Then there has to be a big jump from here I'm watching and waiting til something made clear Times running out I cant feel you Enthusiasm couldn't come too soon The waiting game is hard to play When you feel this way I'm not asking for a lot of effort Just something sweet or kind of clever To light the spark in this big dark And underwhelming space What can you do Its all up to you

about

Having recorded a few tracks during the summer - Riding with Nero (which caught the ears of former Chicane member Leo Elstob) and Swept Away too Soon...I went on a lovely break to Sardinia with family and got away from it all.

During the break I thought about musical directions and "where do I go from here?" From 2014 I had moved from my more electronic music roots to more of a Progressive Rock influenced genre with the album Moving on From Here. Over the years I had a lot of fun as a Progger - but over the past year I began to feel less driven by it. In part probably because as a solo artist I had done just about everything I wanted to do. I still have Life in Digital and Iconic Sky to continue that genre....

So I dug out a few songs I found from 2011-2013....and realised that 1. Not many people in recent years would have heard some of the music...and 2. Just how much I loved some of that material....but how badly produced and mixed some of it was! I dug out the old files and in the case of 1 file complete re-recorded it...and re-mixed them. I also wrote few more songs as well which seem to fit in with the whole new sound.

This was such an easy process - the music came quickly and I enjoyed the whole making of it immensely . I hope it translates when you hear it!

The title reflects my positive feelings right now. Even though I am nothing special I have everything. Nothing but Everything....Its a pretty nice headspace to be in.

Thanks for your support!
