with Brian Prentice 


Heartbeat and Soul has 10 original songs by Terry Neason and 4 excellent covers.
Chasing Cars    Whole of The Moon    A Kiss From Wishaw Cross     August Moon


'That she is a diva there is no doubt… To say that Neason is versatile is to understate the case. She moves seamlessly from jazz to country, blues to folk...Neason is a one-woman multi-national cabaret.'
The Independent UK 

‘She has an enormously powerful voice, but one which can also be seductively soft. It grabs and engulfs you. You can’t escape. You don’t want to.’ Time Out, UK

'She has an amazing fluid voice with a range that defies physics. Rousing, Stirring, Memorable.’
The Edmonton Sun, Canada

Terry Neason I'll Keep You Safe (Cover) Sleeping At Last

I'll Keep You Safe cover by Terry Neason
Sleeping At Last
Terry Neason sings cover version of the beautiful I'll Keep You Safe by Sleeping At Last

Produced by Brian Prentice

I'll Keep You Safe lyrics by Sleeping At Last

I'll keep you safe. Try hard to concentrate. 
Hold out your hand, can you feel the weight of it? 
The whole world at your fingertips
Don't be, don't be afraid
Our mistakes, they were bound to be made
But I promise you I'll keep you safe

You'll be an architect, so pull up your sleeves 
And build a new silhouette in the skylines up ahead
Don't be, don't be afraid
Our mistakes, they were bound to be made
But I promise you I'll keep you safe. I'll keep you safe. 

Your darkness will be rewritten into a work of fiction, you'll see
As you pull on every ribbon you'll find every secret it keeps 
The sound of the branches breaking under your feet
The smell of the falling and burning of leaves
The bitterness of winter or the sweetness of spring
You are an artist and your heart is your masterpiece
And I'll keep it safe 

Dismiss the invisible by giving it shape
Like a clockmaker fixes time by keeping the gears in line
Don't be, no don't be afraid
God knows, our mistakes will be made
But i promise you I'll keep you safe 

As you build up your collection of pearls that you pulled from the deep
A landscape more beautiful than anything that I've ever seen
The sound of the branches breaking under your feet
The smell of the falling and burning of leaves
The bitterness of winter or the sweetness of spring
You are an artist and your heart is your masterpiece
And I'll keep it safe.

Terry Neason sings Sons Of - Fils de Jacques Brel

Sons Of 
Terry Neason sings Sons Of based on Fils De by Jacques Brel

In Remembrance


Terry Neason rendition of Sons Of
song by Gerard Jouannest, Jacques Brel, Eric Blau, Mort Shuman 

Sons of...
Sons of the thief, sons of the saint
Who is the child with no complaint
Sons of the great or sons unknown
All were children like your own
The same sweet smiles, the same sad tears
The cries at night, the nightmare fears
Sons of the great or sons unknown
All were children like your own

So long ago: long, long, ago

But sons of tycoons or sons of the farms
All of the children ran from your arms
Through fields of gold, through fields of ruin
All of the children vanished too soon
In towering waves, in walls of flesh
Among dying birds trembling with death
Sons of tycoons or sons of the farms
All of the children ran from your arms

So long ago: long, long, ago

But sons of your sons or sons passing by
Children we lost in lullabies
Sons of true love or sons of regret
All of the sons you cannot forget
Some built the roads, some wrote the poems
Some went to war, some never came home
Sons of your sons or sons passing by
Children we lost in lullabies

So long ago: long, long, ago

But, sons of the thief, sons of the saint
Who is the child with no complaint
Sons of the great or sons unknown
All were children like your own
Some built the roads, some wrote the poems
Some went to war, some never came home
 

Sons of the great or sons unknown
All were children like your own.

Lyrics:  Make You Feel My Love written by Bob Dylan

When the rain is blowing in your face
And the whole world is on your case
I could offer you a warm embrace
To make you feel my love

When the evening shadows and the stars appear
And there is no one there to dry your tears
I could hold you for a million years
To make you feel my love

I know you haven't made your mind up yet
But I would never do you wrong
I've known it from the moment that we met
No doubt in my mind were you belong

I'd go hungry, I'd go black and blue
I'd go crawling down the avenue
No, there's nothing that I wouldn't do
To make you feel my love

The storms are raging on the rolling sea
And on the highway of regret
The winds of change are blowing wild and free
You ain't seen nothing like me yet

I could make you happy, make your dreams come true
Nothing that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends of the Earth for you
To make you feel my love
To make you feel my love

The Whole Of The Moon - Terry Neason

Terry Neason sings The Whole of The Moon

by The Waterboys




Terry Neason: Official Website     Facebook: Terry Neason Music


The Whole of The Moon
by The Waterboys

I pictured a rainbow
You held it in your hands
I had flashes
But you saw the plan
I wandered out in the world for years
While you just stayed in your room
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon
The whole of the moon

You were there at the turnstiles
With the wind at your heels
You stretched for the stars
And you know how it feels
To reach too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw the whole of the moon

I was grounded
While you filled the skies
I was dumbfounded by truths
You cut through lies
I saw the rain-dirty valley
You saw Brigadoon
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon

I spoke about wings
You just flew
I wondered, I guessed and I tried
You just knew
I sighed
But you swooned
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon
The whole of the moon

With a torch in your pocket
And the wind at your heels
You climbed on the ladder
And you know how it feels
To get too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw the whole of the moon
The whole of the moon

Cannonballs and unicorns
Palaces and piers
Trumpets, towers, and tenements
Wide oceans full of tears
Rags, flags, ferry boats
Scimitars and scarves
Every precious dream and vision
Underneath the stars

You climbed on the ladder
With the wind in your sails
You came like a comet
Blazing your trail
Too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw the whole of the moon

Terry Neason Gig - Sheltered Love & He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven

Sheltered Love & He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven
Vocal - Terry Neason
Piano - Brian Prentice


I wrote this song in Ireland after a break-up and insisted on singing it in the concert I was doing at that time, Screams 'n' Kisse
s.
Woh! Yes, one could say, it made for an emotional performance. Sob! Sniff! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaah! cathartic or what.
Being a fan of poetry, I included the W.B Yeats poem, He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven, in the intro. It's got to be one of the most beautiful poems ever written.

Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.


Rather than use a gig video, I thought it would be kool to use some romantic images. These stunning pictures from my chum, Suzi Lemon, set the mood perfectly.
The Changing Light of Loch Fyne...I used 4 transitions and they change slowly during the song.



Terry Neason - If You Go Away - Ne me quitte pas

IF YOU GO AWAY

After some time in the office, I decided it's time to get back to the music. 'If You Go Away' is from our recent concert, Torch Songs of Pleasure 'n' Passion. Brian Prentice plays an amazing arrangement on piano.
Written by Rod McKuen and based on the beautiful Jacques Brel song, Ne me quitte pas.
