Steve Jones
Добавлен 28 май 2007
I'm a singer/songwriter & musician. I’ve been writing & performing for 30+ years. I fell in love with music when I heard the Beatles on Ed Sullivan. When I was 16 I sang & played guitar in my first cover band. In the following years I played in various original & cover bands and played bars & clubs in NJ/NY. In the ‘80s I had my first home studio. I wrote songs, sang, played guitar, bass, keyboards and programmed drums. In 2000 I used a Roland VS880 & in 2020 I started using Adobe Audition. I've written 300+ songs, some under contract with industry publishers & have several albums available on various internet sites. I'm a graduate of The Institute of Audio Research & a previous member of the Songwriters Guild & ASCAP. I hosted the 1978 Arts Center Arts Café in Maplewood NJ. From 2001-2005 I played in a blues rock band & from 2016-2020 played 350 solo acoustic shows at restaurants, bars & private events in NJ/NY. I'm currently writing & recording in my home studio.
steve jones - the stars tonight
The Stars Tonight
I never pray but I might start today
I’ll say a prayer for you, I’ll say one for me too
I pray that all your dreams will soon come true
And all the love you lost will come back to you
Chorus
And all our troubles slowly fade away
On my knees I pray
Stars look nice tonight, wish I may wish I might
Be there for someone before my day is done
And I wish you well, I wish you all the best
May you find true love and happiness
Chorus
In the morning light I can see so clear
Choices that I make or forsake will lead me here
I can change it all today
If the sky is dark, I hope you find your way
I’ll keep a fire burning until you’re home and safe
Chorus
I never pray but I might start today
I’ll say a prayer for you, I’ll say one for me too
I pray that all your dreams will soon come true
And all the love you lost will come back to you
Chorus
And all our troubles slowly fade away
On my knees I pray
Stars look nice tonight, wish I may wish I might
Be there for someone before my day is done
And I wish you well, I wish you all the best
May you find true love and happiness
Chorus
In the morning light I can see so clear
Choices that I make or forsake will lead me here
I can change it all today
If the sky is dark, I hope you find your way
I’ll keep a fire burning until you’re home and safe
Chorus

Gone Sky was black and raining buckets She drank too much and she was feeling lucky She got behind the wheel, drove off down the road Oh, just one mistake, yeah that’s all it takes You were with me yesterday, holding my hand Telling me it’s gonna be okay Everything gonna fall in place Chorus Now you’re gone, you’re gone away You’re gone, gone, gone Sometimes I wonder what’s wrong with me I keep...

One More Try Sitting by a river No, I ain’t gonna jump in I’m just thinking bout where I am And where I might have been Drive along some rocky road Up and down everywhere I go Days go by I give it one more try Sitting by a river The sunshine on me And then when I close my eyes Bringing back those memories You and me holding hands Running down a crooked street Days go by I give it one more try W...
steve jones - common sense

Common Sense The sky is blue, grass is green I’m only certain of what I’ve seen Words of wisdom, loud and clear Oh, they’re fading and hard to hear Some people lie, it’s nothing new Telling stories that aren’t true Storm is coming, it’s what they say Getting ready for end of days Chorus I see a bluebird sitting on a fence Singing a song of innocence Give me some common sense I’m checking twice,...

Goodbye To Yesterday I can almost hear children laughing But it sounds so far away I’m sitting on the edge of my bed Thinking how to spend my day And a breeze blows back the curtain There’s a cloud hanging over this town And I’m watching the sky turn red As the sun go down Oh, saying goodbye to yesterday Ten days alone but who’s counting You were with me but now you’re gone Oh, I thought we had...

Stay When I close my eyes, I can see your face When I reach for you, you fade away All I ever wanted, all I hope and pray You come back to me, come back and stay Please stay I remember the day we met Oh, a true love is so hard to forget When you told me it wasn’t meant to be Oh, I went so low I’m down on my knees Please stay When I close my eyes, I can feel you here When I reach for you, you di...

Roses Blue Chorus Roses blue, violets red Did you hear what they said Is it a lie, is it true Violets red, roses blue Living a fantasy Riddles wrapped in mystery It’s so hard to see When I’m on my knees So hard to find the truth So much to lose Chorus There’s no accident It happens for a reason Everything connected Nothing as it seems Been like that all along Time marching on Chorus When I try ...

Reach Out I pulled out my soldering gun This old amp got a bad hum Making strange and lonely sounds Gets worse when no one’s around I opened up a long lost book And a picture of you fell out Memory of a special day That I forgot all about Chorus 1 Yeah, I know what to do I could reach out to you Yeah, you and everyone else Instead of sitting here by myself I’m keeping it all together Bandaids a...

Pass On By I sat down to write you a letter And try and explain why it’s not any better You were here with me yesterday Now you’re a million miles away I’m sitting here under a spell I can’t admit to myself You’ll never return and I have to learn To get by with your memory Chorus I’m dreaming of love in the past Ones that are with me or never last Watching the clouds in the sky Are you gonna st...

Here I Go Again Try to please the crowd, please no one at all Try to walk a tightrope, you’re bound to fall No matter what they say, do it anyway To your hearts content, to your dying day Never burn my bridges, they crumble from old age Never change my story, just turn the page No matter what they say, do it anyway To your hearts content, to your dying day Chorus Everything looks good, when you...

Last Night I Had A Dream Last night I had a dream I travelled round the world Each place that I stopped I bought a tiny clock Each clock that I found had a different face Now every face reminds me of a different place Last night I had a dream I was just a boy With no expectations or any explanations And time was a bell, a simple way to tell The pieces of the day that slowly fade away Chorus Yes...
steve jones - up ahead
Просмотров 348 месяцев назад
Up Ahead There’s a bottle of pills on the table Angry words hang in the air There’s a knife on the kitchen counter In the corner, a broken chair And I wish we could start over It gets harder every day I swore I would never leave you But right now, it’s hard to stay How come the best made plans Always end up falling apart There’s so much I want to tell you But I don’t know where to start And I d...

Never Found I walked into a diner, sat on a red round seat Looked up and down the menu, ordered a bite to eat The jukebox playing Ring of Fire, I said Cash is king Some guy said money markets, I said that ain’t the same thing A man sat down beside me, asked me if I pray With so much innuendo don’t know what he’s trying to say He took me down a rabbit hole, we stayed there for days I wasn’t real...

My Sweetheart My sweetheart married me, we were teens We had a love like in movies and dreams The years went by and she got bored She ran away with the girl next door Chorus I stand outside, stare at the sky Where should I be and when and why Here comes the future, steady moving train Start waving goodbye it’s leaving again My favorite band, I got every cd They tour now and then but not by me T...

Go My Way Thought I heard you say please stay And then you walk away I watch you from across the room Wonder what I should do The music’s too damn loud And this ain’t my crowd I should just go home But I don’t want to be alone Chorus Another day, another time All the stars align Gonna be different someday Everything gonna go my way Sometimes I forget I won’t be here forever Sometimes I forget i...
Great voice, My Friend. I thoroughly enjoyed your performance.
Thanks so much, I appreciate it!
Wow! I have many of the same memories. Are you the Steve Jones on Passaic Place?
OK Steve, you're 2 for 2 so far One More Try and Common Sense. Where are you out offend are you performing anywhere these days?
@@JimDiBattista thank you! Appreciate it. Not playing live these days just writing/recording
@@stejon3 where are you located Steve and what are you doing you recording on?
@@JimDiBattista I'm in New Jersey. I use Adobe Audition. I sing, play all the instruments and program the drums. I love the digital age of recording that allows me to cut and paste, change the arrangement, limitless tracks. I also recently started playing in a 4 pc band, 2 guitars, bass, drums just for fun. How bout yourself?
From one old guy singer-songwriter to another-Great song, great production.
@@JimDiBattista thanks so much for listening and commenting!

Read your bio. Detroit doesn't have much of a Blues following anymore. Too bad.
