E Michael R Well what can you possibly say , here we have Peter and his music floating in the dawn, looking for lyrics and there are at least three songs such as looking at the tide ,looking back not looking back where I’m from , lots of little diamonds in here. He should write All of them each with a different setting (like his strings). I always have favoured his voice though. Thats why I loved the songs about mythical creatures and beings because it was not critical just a vehicle , voice all you need. Favorite track: Won't Stand Down (Piano Version).

James Farrelly I can’t wait for the lyric sheet or the decoder ring in my Wheaties…thanks for letting us into the writing room. Is this the Bosendorfer piano you used for Fathet Son video? Favorite track: Won't Stand Down (Piano Version).

about

This piano and voice version of Won't Stand Down is from February, 2025. The song wasn't called WSD at this point and you can hear that Peter is still working out the lyrics. Faye Dolle, who is one of Peter's engineers, says that this was the first time that she heard Peter play the song and immediately knew he had something special. Hopefully you'll get a little bit of that same feeling once you press play...
