For funk, hip hop, alternative, soft rock and jazz, margot du bois, rapster and numerous collab partners, the main ones being Tom King and The Ratman...
Ive been an online singer since 1999/2000. I first encountered online collaboration via Steinbergs "Rocketnetwork" which came free with Cubase back in those days.. I was totally awestruck by the fact that I could make music with people worldwide who Id never met personally before. Since those days Ive written and sung countless, completed songs and always have many others in various stages of completion. As you can see by the list I have dozens of collab partners, some of whom have become very close and dear friends in real life. Infact the first persons song I ever sang on was by Steve Pearce, who is now sadly deceased. He became one of my dearest friends and through him I met and became very close friends with the late Clint Warwick, who was the original bass player with the Moody Blues and Danny King who was one of the founder members of that band. Some of the people that I made music with in the past on and off line:- ..My dear friend, the late Clint Warwick, also Danny King and... steve pearce... sheck... lennie... bigmoon... bop... timmymacdd... jack miller... mixmaster mark... tfolie... jako2k... zauberflute... music1961... Joemagic... kemox... gatchman... g. francis... psyspyder... universalfreedom... dealsaxgtr... herman... rob james... plat... 12T...Solaire/Jon R...Doozy... brodo... robaire... abbeyroad... xiabram... naughtyhill... bombstar... wilhelm... vectorstation... ensoniq... tomben... mart... bigjohn... bop... hawkeyez... snowy... kjell... harry c... mikula... cppmusic... gub... dbm... (Those people were all members of the now defunct "Rocketnetwork", "The Rocketears"...... More recent people are,:- Teecee... ZIGGma... Steve Dinsmoor... Dirt Settlers... D Form... Lil Drizzy... Syngularity... Uncle fester... Violent... Tom KIng... Ratman... Yerrickl... Loren Risker... CBS Productions... Pete Consodine... Dace... Blue Tom... JDK... Sisters... Mick Wilson... Shedman... Beeswing... Jeff and Derek Southerland... Emocion... Khalil... Texas Jake... Talent A.D... Syntopia... Nigel Potter... WhereWolf... Rob Grant... Gary Carciello... Allen Warren... SaitKoray... Aimlessjazz... vvsdesign/Volker...TNuT...Frank Northcutt...Uberthrall... last, but always first... My wonderful partner in love, life AND music, JOEY/Joe Nickerson/RAPSTER/Nicky Quick... Because the list is long its possible I may have forgotten to mention someone here, so if I have please give me a nod and Ill fix that.. Im so very thankful to everyone whos made their music freely available to me, to the many whove written and created pieces especially for me and to those whove helped me along the way, believe me there have been so many...Thankyou to all of them.. I NEVER try to sound like anyone else when I sing, always prefering what comes naturally to me. I rarely if ever sing other peoples lyrics as I can only feel what I personally feel, thats not to say I dont appreciate what other songwriters write, I love reading their lyrics and listening to their songs, those are their feelings..:-) My lyrics are generally minimal. I dont feel I need to write a book when I can say it in a sentence..:-) Im very happy to be uniquely and uncontrollably me..:-)

Story behind the song
I had this piece of music on my desktop for a month or so and then yesterday I decided to listen again..Out came the lyrics. I adore Michaels music and the last solo in particular takes me back to Grateful Dead concerts back in the 70`s...:-)
Lyrics
HUMAN BEHAVIOUR So many people pulling at my strings... Trying hard to control me... They`re scrutinizing all the words that I sing... I guess they really don`t know me... They`re trying hard to find something bad there... But I`m no worse than my neigbour... I an`it no saint but niether are they... It`s all just human behaviour... All just human behaviour... All just human behaviour... My heart holds so much love... So much love... So much love... So many people pulling at my strings... Please don`t try to control me... copyright margot du bois

This is so charming vocal piece, beautiful song, really good playing by Michael, as always. Production is spot on with lovely sounds, magical! I have a progressive rock piece up on SC here: https://soundclick.com/r/s8n7t1 It's rather long but if you find the time, please take a listen. Take care.

One the best songs I've heard for a while, what a great team you make. Your singing is sweet Margo, and Micheal's guitar playing is wonderfully clean and hits all the right notes. (I mean that in the broadest way). Beautiful song, wonderful production. congrats . . .

A definite 70s feel to this one Mags and Michael! Great beat - cool guitar leads throughout, I liked the 5ths. Vocals are smooth and enticing ;^)) Cheers to the talent! ~ Bob
