Hi folks,

Just letting you know that I have added another video to this site. It's called "Nina's call" and is from "The Storyteller" album. It was a lot of fun putting this one together, model Dina Nazarkina has once again aloud us to use her image as the girlfriend Nina in the songs story.

I would like to once again thank you all for showing an interest in my work. Views are going very well for the videoes especially "Running water" overall statistics for this site have now cracked the 29000 mark and steadily rising. It makes the effort that I have put into the work very satisfying.

Cheers, Sleepy

VIDEO: Nina's Call

Video clip, from "The Storyteller" album. A follow on from the song "Telephone". This time it is Nina who is trying to contact her boyfriend by phone to see if she can come stay with him for a while. Features Sleepy as the boyfriend and model Dina Nazarkina as Nina. Has a lay back blues/soul feel to it with that up close and personal style that Sleepy is so well renowned for.

VIDEO: Running water

Music video clip. From "The storyteller" album. Written along similar lines to "Visions of the forest" in the same area of forest in which Sleepy once lived. A beautiful, tranquil, lay back song describing his feelings and thoughts of the river systems that ran through the mountains and valleys of his temporary home.

Hi folks,

Have completed another new video clip for you to take a look at. It's called "Running water" and was written in the same valley as "Visions of the forest" at around the same time. I have to admit, what I experienced while living there changed my life completely. I guesse my whole attitude to life, my music and my personality went through great changes. I made some wonderful friends during my stay there. Lived in some beautiful mood setting shacks and wrote some great nature inspired songs. I hope you enjoy the tranquility of "Running water" in the same way I felt it when I wrote it. It was a lot of fun putting the clip together. Brought back a lot of tranquil and peaceful memories. Cheers, Sleepy.

Hi folks,

Just letting you know that the new video "Vision's of the forest" is now finished and posted onto my youtube channel. (see favourite links). It has been a hard slog getting it all together but now it's done and ready to view. I had a lot of fun getting the photo's,  uploading them into the computer and putting it all together. There are some really nice pic's of tranquil scenes around the river and the bush surrounds. Very peaceful and relaxing to watch as the transitions flow from one to the other.

The song itself is quite nice as well. It has a light rock, blues, soul feel to it and describes my thoughts and memories of a forest I once lived in some years ago. The forest itself is no longer there though. All the trees have been cleared and the land developed but the memory of the tranquility I felt whilst I was living there is still with me and now embedded forever in the song and video clip.

If the kids are reading this then I can quietly say "I wonder where the fairy colony that lived in the huge old eucalypt went after their tree was knocked down" (smile)

Cheers. Sleepy
