do you want to kiss your dreams good-bye
forget about the sky
the galaxies that glow
you were sent to save the world
you were meant for something more than this
it’s time to let it show
carpe diem, carpe diem
before you turn to clay
carpe diem, carpe diem
you've got to seize the day
“Your CD made me cry. Now that’s what I call good!”
- Jenay Marontate (Body of Sun)
“ ...one of the best sounding independent recordings I have ever heard...”
- Robert Falconer
"Emrys is the real life Cupid. His words are his arrows and his guitar is his bow."
-Greg Cipes, actor/musician
"Emrys not only has a disarmingly soulful voice with the ability to entrance his listener, his lyrics are so uniquely clever you can't wait for the next turn of phrase. He defines singer-songwriter in its greatest traditions. I'm lucky to have his songs in my film."
-Joel Silverman, writer/director
