A smooth, lush and warm vocal pop track with a retro 1960's / 1970's sound. Think the Beatles and other 1960's-1970's flower power, also perhaps early David Bowie. Soft male vocal. Somewhat psychedelic, dreamy, trippy. Very pleasant sound, featuring all live instruments and string section.

Lyrics: | Here’s the rain The clouds have had their say screaming out for more As the rain leaves you all alone If the pain that frightens you away would ever stop A fear you’ve always known Then when all is lost in clouded thoughts and darkened skies To find the stars between we need to realise they’re everywhere Just because a heart that found its way never was Don’t dream you’ve no part in the only play now For you’ve a love you must share There where all is lost in clouded thoughts and darkened skies The stars we share are all we have to realise They’re everywhere between us They’re everywhere between us |

A self-taught multi-instrumentalist, Alan Peter has been writing music since he took up guitar at 16 years of age. He was piano/keys player and co-songwriter with Irish alternative rock band Woodstar, who in 2001 signed with EMI Parlophone to release the critically acclaimed EP 'Time To Bleed', produced by Ben Hillier (Depeche Mode, Doves). This was followed by 'Life Sparks' LP in 2002, produced by Richard Rainey (U2, Clannad) and Stephen Street (The Cranberries, The Smiths, Blur). In 2003 after Woodstar parted ways, Alan built a home studio and began to explore the idea of writing songs and instrumental pieces in diverse styles, with the intention of finding a home for them on "The Big Screen". His musical influences would include (in chronological order): Abba, Gilbert O'Sullivan, Johann Strauss, Dire Straits, Bread, America, Paul Simon, Jim Croce, Prefab Sprout, Sting, The Smiths, Go Betweens, John Lennon, Burt Bacharach, Red House Painters, Wilco, Sparklehorse, Sergei Rachmaninov, Ennio Morricone, Dario Marianelli & Frederic Chopin.
