Song Meanings : Music All Around . Bernardt James

Album : Music All Around

Omega Centauri
This song was inspired by the “Omega Centauri” Galaxy. The immense power of God’s creation, colours bursting with energy.

The Time Traveller
I imagined myself being a time traveller...

Contemplating
A melody reminiscing in my head, building up to something spectacular !
Inspired from a song in the late 70’s.
A somewhat small connection between the two songs, but quite significant to me

Lost for Words
A melody that derived from the same idea as “A song to remember”
A haunting, but yet promising and hopeful tune…

The Journey
When I composed this song I pictured myself tied in front of an old steam train.
I try to express the adrenaline rush throughout this song.

Dark sonata
A “twisted” sonata in a minor key. It almost reminds you of the beloved Mozart piano sonatas.

Beethoven’s Fifth
Not a song traditionally played on a piano, but I did it !

Sad Blue sky
This song is very personal and it’s about a relative. He fell ill with a painful disease. I imagined him experiencing this and the pain, looking up at the sad blue sky. Don't listen to this song if you are feeling sad.

Music All Around
The title track from my album. This song was born a couple of years ago, but it never felt right until this album.

Serenity
This song is all about serenity.

Collapse
Everything around you falls apart, but there is still a tiny bit of hope...

The Portal
Imagine yourself walking through a portal that transports you to a different place or time…
