China on The Horizon (2006) available

May 26, 2020 in Uncategorized

Friends, In 2006 I wrote a song called China on the Horizon. At the time there was a discussion about the biggest geopolitical threat to America and western Democracies. This song was my take. The tune was never released but a few folks got wind of it  and considering the current pandemic conversation asked me to release it…So without further comment….China on the Horizon (2006) is now available on all music platforms..

Take a sail on a big ship
Head West till you stop
You’ll find a razor
In your brown paper cup

Her eyes are diamonds
And she smiles like a clown
She knows what you need
Before you turn around

China is on the Horizon

She will take you out – Turn you inside
Leave you flat on your back
She’ll put your heart
In high state of attack

She comes with roses
But she’s nearly Insane
The Boys on Wall Street
You can bet all know her name

China is on the Horizon

Be Well

All For One

April 8, 2020 in Uncategorized

Friends, I hope everyone is negotiating the Corona Virus the best they can in this new reality. Like so many of you, I have lost an old friend and send my prayers to all suffering during this time. As we saw in the aftermath of 9-11 within the tragedy we see great unsung heroic acts, from our front line health care workers, to grocery store checkers, postal employees, and so many more. Some of you noticed an acoustic version of my song All for One in the finale of Hawaii 5-0 which was personally special as my friend Peter is H50’s show runner. Here is a link to another version of that song that was performed by the US Army Voices just the other day. I was deeply moved and honored hearing our troops sing this tune. We are all in this together…more than ever…All For One. Be Well. Love John.
