I Am The Cruel Dictator
I wrote love poems for my wife and paid a freelancer (The Welsh Wonder) to set them to music and sing them. I was inspired by My Muse.
You can wander through them individually as listed below or catch them on the Spotify EP Bask In My Love,
BEST SONGS SO FAR
Amazing Eyes
If I’ve learned nothing in two years of writing love songs, I’ve learned the best ones have the added charm of being true, and come from real life. Looking into Vicki’s eyes one morning, I realized they were another reason I love her. Early response has been great; one professional musician said it was the only song I’ve written with commercial potential..
That Girl Was You (You’re The Only Woman Man Enough To Bask In My love)
The gender-reversed version, Bask In My Love
Also: Nothing I Wouldn’t Do (If You Let Me Stay With You)
LATEST SONG: My First Real Kiss (Made The Room Swirl)
This is my latest lyric, set to music by the Welsh Wonder and sung by Marvelous Mia. This my first song from a woman’s viewpoint. Despite the protagonist being a six-foot blonde, it is NOT about my wife. If you don’t have the link, you can search Spotify for “Made The Room Swirl.” (First Real Kiss brought up too many false matches)
There’s an eccentric funny song: Farmer’s Market Blues.
I have recorded nearly all the songs in my own voice: Paul Sings Paul. A longer origin story as well as the lyrics. Sheet Music.
You can listen to my half dozen parodies as well.
Bumps On The Road To Nirvana is a How Did I Get Here song suggested by Clark Smith: “All your songs are about your wonderful love. How did you get there?
REINCARNATION SONGS
I have written two: If Offered A Choice sung by me in front of an 80-piece band. Or If Offered A Choice In 4-part harmony. Or as electronic dance music.
How Many Times sung by the Welsh Wonder.
If you only listen to a few love songs, listen to the Lyrics by Paul playlist on YouTube with the four best songs, sung by The Welsh Wonder, who wrote the melodies for all my lyrics: If Offered A Choice, You’re The Only Woman Man Enough (To Bask In My Love), Holding My Heart, Nothing I Wouldn’t Do.
There is a 25-minute MP3 file of all the songs plus patter.
The easy way to get the songs? A YouTube playlist, Spotify (be sure to ask for Paul Sings Paul; otherwise you’ll get the old versions of the songs, or possibly songs by the other Paul Schindler) and iTunes. Of course those methods cost.
also pretty good:
How I got here:
* 30 years practicing journalism (20 of them covering computers)
* 10 years reviewing products on The Computer Chronicles
*10 years teaching U.S. History at Joaquin Intermediate School, Moraga, CA
* 5 times appearing on television game shows
* 5 years writing lyrics for, and producing, love songs. They’ve been published on Spotify as singles and albums, including a “best of” album (soon)
Nothing would make me happier than to believe that one of these songs:
* touches someone
* cheers them
* brings a smile that says, “That’s how I feel, expressed well.”
Specifically, am I the Paul Schindler you once knew?
* Of all my professional accomplishments, writing lyrics, the least remunerative (I’m not in it for the money) may touch more people than any of the others, even the 1,000 students I taught.
