[verse 1]
I know it's kinda late
and I'm sorry I can't wait
But I'm afraid to fall
Feel like a spider on the wall
Another rainy day
This pain won't go away
So I'm calling you, my friend
I just need a helping hand

 

[prechorus]
Don't you ever feel
that living's an ordeal?
Darkness, never sun...
or am I the only one?

 

[chorus]
I'm sorry I haven't been much around
but I'll be there when the sun goes down
Don't stay in a world of your own
I'm your friend, you know you're not alone
They say nobody loves you when you're down and out
But I'm on the rooftops to shout it out loud
Don't stay in a world of your own
I'm your friend, you know you're not alone

 

[verse 2]
A crazy world out there
much more than I can bear
Nobody wants you
when you're down, so what about you?
I know I got to be strong
Losers are always wrong
So I've come to you, God
with all the love I've got

 

[prechorus]
Don't you ever feel
you're slipping off the reel?
Like you're really done?
or am I the only one?

 

[chorus]
I'm sorry I haven't been much around
but I'll be there when the sun goes down
Don't stay in a world of your own
I'm your friend, you know you're not alone
They say nobody loves you when you're down and out
But I'm on the rooftops to shout it out loud
Don't stay in a world of your own
I'm your friend, you know you're not alone

 

[bridge]
And I'd really like to know
Do you turn off the radio
when they play this song?

 

[solo]

 

[prechorus]
Don't you ever feel
that living's an ordeal?
Darkness, never sun...
or am I the only one?

 

[chorus]
I'm sorry I haven't been much around
but I'll be there when the sun goes down
Don't stay in a world of your own
I'm your friend, you know you're not alone
They say nobody loves you when you're down and out
But I'm on the rooftops to shout it out loud
Don't stay in a world of your own
I'm your friend, you know you're not alone

Description:

Loneliness is a stone-cold killer. Without friendship, we are scared creatures lost in our little bubble. We so desperately long to share feelings and experiences. 

"You're not alone" by Eric Geurts revolves around this theme. In a - at least at first hearing - winsome ballad with beautiful guitar lines and a lovely wobbling chorus, the lyrics tell about the need for friendship, love and compassion. In 1974, John Lennon sang: "Nobody loves you when you're down and out". Lennon's soul haunts this song, but unlike the rather cynical Lennon song, "You're not alone" sounds like an ode to friendship, to compassion in these lockdown times when much human suffering takes often strike deep wounds into our very souls. Friendship is a verb, it breaks through self-centeredness.


For those who doubt it all too often: "You're Not Alone"... Somewhere there is someone who cares about you and sings this song for you!

You can buy this song of Eric Geurts on Bandcamp:

 

she's only a child
a running, naked child
so vulnerable

she's only 'bout nine
thin and so fine
so destructable

she runs scarified
her arms swung out wide
to relieve the pain

 

she lives in Trang Bang
where fire falls from the skies
down Highway One
there's a girl that screams and cries

 

and she's running
always running
they call her the Napalm Girl
but she never gives in
trying to get some peace in this world
saved by the click of a camera
she is the girl in the picture

 

there's fire all around her
and fire inside
'it's too hot, too hot'

she rips off her clothes
but the heat only grows
it's living under her skin

she's frozen in time
'cause she still burns your mind
when you look at her

 

she lives in Trang Bang
where fire grows on the trees
down Highway One
there's a little girl pleading for peace

 

and she's running
always running
this little napalm girl
but she never gives in
trying to get some peace in this world
she's so strong she can burn your mind
she is the girl in the picture

 

she lives in Trang Bang
where fire rains from the sky
but she never gives in
trying to get some peace in this world

 

and she's running
always running
they call her the Napalm Girl
but she never gives in
trying to get some peace in this world
always understanding
this little child of war

she is the girl in the picture

You can buy this song of Eric Geurts on Bandcamp:

 

She said she woke up
in the middle of a dream
She thought she'd died when
she heard somebody scream:
"The groom is on His way!"
But she didn't think today would be the day
She was out of grace

 

She showed up late and
started knocking on the door
"Lord, let me in, Lord!"
She should have known the score
She wept and wailed
as she heard a cold whisper in her ear:
"It's judgement day"

 

As she stands there in the light
This foolish virgin of the night
praying now on judgement day
She never had too much faith
and it's so sad
Now it's too late
to start praying on judgement day

 

She dreamed of hiding
in a safe and secret place
Touch the silver mirror
Disappear without a trace
but on this stormy Sunday
she realizes there's a price to pay
on judgement day

 

As she stands there in the light
This foolish virgin of the night
praying still on judgement day
and all the winds blow her away
She knew Jesus was the way
but she thought it was a fairy-tale
Now it's too late
to pray on judgement day

sitting in the dark
hiding from the light
I'm not like all the others
they're never satisfied

 

all these girls dressed up
in fancy clothes
their skin it shines
they're laughing loud and dance
trying to pull the guys

 

what if I really want to
but don't have the guts to tell you?

 

I'm not gonna hide
the morning after
I'm not gonna hide
from love

 

I don't know why it's so hard
to get words out of my mouth
guess that I'm afraid of people talking all the time
I live alone on my cloud

 

maybe I really want to love you
but can't find the words to tell you

 

I'm not gonna hide
the morning after
I'm not gonna hide
from love

 

who's gonna break the spell?
help me break out of this silence
come and get me out of my shell

 

sitting in the dark
hiding from the light
the party's almost over
I'm ready for the night

 

I'm not gonna hide
the morning after
I'm not gonna hide
from love
from love

It was midnight on that floating dock
Legs hangin’ over the side
and the water was smooth, held the stars and moon
like it was jealous of the sky
It was getting late and I felt like time
wasn’t being a friend to me
So, I leaned in close and when I stole
a kiss I couldn’t believe

 

Just like that water and light
When love hit you just right
I could see

 

You got the same kind of shine
Dancin’ there inside your eyes
I wanna dive in for the rest of my life
Baby shine

 

Even though that summer’s gone
I’m still lit up inside
Yeah, there’s no doubt it’ll never burn out
Some things you just can’t hide
'cause here we are now all curled up
in front of the fireplace
And I’m speechless again cause the glow on your skin
seems to get brighter every day

 

Girl you fight back the dark
like a flame in my heart
I can see

 

You got the same kind of shine
Dancin’ there inside your eyes
I wanna dive in for the rest of my life
Baby shine

Yeah, it hits you like a spotlight
just like the stars on the water that night
Girl you fire me up inside
You got the same kind of shine

 

Like a diamond ring in the sun
Or like the sky when the day is done

 

You got the same kind of shine
Dancin’ there inside your eyes
Baby shine
I wanna dive in for the rest of my life
Baby shine (shalalala)
Yeah, it hits you like a spotlight
Baby shine (shalalala)
Girl you fire me up inside
You got the same kind of shine
(shalalala shalalala shalalala…)

Kemper Testimonies


Suseguitar from Kemper forum:
I had a chance to play one of the profiles (037508) yesterday in our rehearsal room, played my Strat with Quarterpounds ;) - the solosound is just awesome, assertive, supporting and inspiring. Great work!

Ibot39 from Kemper forum:
After testing the profiles my conclusion is: The pack does exactly what the author is advertising. You get the Blackmore sound from the mentioned era. Humbuckers are possible, other 70s rock-sounds with a little tweaking. But the real soul of this pack is authentic Blackmore-tone! For this it was created with an ear for details and this is were the rigs shine! Thanks for the nice pictures that complement this special pack. I have to highlight the pdf that comes with the profiles offering very detailed information. Great!

Laker from Kemper forum:
These profiles are the real deal IMHO.

Riddlescott from Kemper Forum:
I like it the better the longer i play it. What i also appreciate is the tasty effects settings. Highly recommended for the real Marshall Bluesy Staccato Strat Sound.

raiellojr from Kemper forum:
I like the pack a lot...a little tweaking and I can get real close to your sound samples.

Laker from Kemper forum:
Only the one amp a Marshall Major but it sounds like the real deal. These profiles are outstanding. Everything they make sounds great. What I really like about them is their sound samples sound just like what you download. IMHO a lot of other profilers do not sound the same.

Acolbourn from Kemper forum:
For Frusciante profiles I tried flying snowman's more black pack listed above and they sound great!

Razorpig55 from Kemper forum:
I spent a ton of time searching for the right “blues” tones and happened on your site.  I really love the pack ('60 Pack) I downloaded, especially the FS ’60 B1001pa......nice, crunchy and just a bit mellow.  I’m going to post your site on the reddit site for Kemper.......have a great one thanks for the great tones.

Kungsmas from Kemper forum:
Extremely great stuff. Among the best vintage Marshall profiles ever.
ROCK ON

Michael Worsnup from Facebook Group "Kemper Tips and Tricks":
Got the original pack & just downloaded the new one sound great with my strat Blackmore always been my favorite guitarist and they really nail his sound!

Milano (per email): 
Thank you for providing this great product. The profiles are really good, great job man! Shoot me a message when MORE BLACK PACK 3 releases, I'll be first in line to buy it from you.

Timothy (via mail):
You really did an excellent job. I'm working through the profiles and am very impressed!

BadBadger from Kemper forum:
Great tones and great playing too in your YT video!

@stevegardiner8473 on YouTube:
These profiles sound really close to the original tones.

dxmayer from Kemper forum:
I have to say, as great as the amp itself is, your profiling is what really brings this Marshall Major to life. Even with high gain, the clarity and voice of the guitar shines through. It’s one of the best profiles of a Marshall I’ve played. Very nice tone crafting! Oh, and a very generous selection of song specific profiles, too, in addition to main amp files.
