The vocal rich and instrumental laden R'n'B maestro has given his fans and music lovers a like a soft and vibrant combination of beachside crooning as well as bittersweet blues that John Legend and Musiq would shed a manly tear for as they heard the lyrics delivered with a natural dignity not offered since Nat King Cole gave us 'Mona Lisa'.
The third album in two years from KAR, it does not lack originality nor creativity as it simply exhibits the signature depths of this exciting and gifted artist.

Heaven Sweetened Scent - Lyrics
Forget the pain, though its hard when it rains
Remain inside and let it pass.
Just let the cold go by
Many years had passed, more than I should know.
Stuck between a heaven, stuck to close to Hell.
I saw myself a spectre
I felt something on her lips.
She was as good as Angels can be when they remove
their halos.
She was two parts Angel, one part demon and all
mine.
She was two parts Angel, one part demon and all
mine.
Embraced and encased, entwined in a devine lace
We defied the pure,
We reviled the evil,
She left me smelling of her Heaven Sweetened Scent.
She was as good as Angels can be when they remove
their halos.
She was two parts Angel, one part demon and all
mine.
She was two parts Angel, one part demon and all
mine.
Everything must come to an end, no limbo lasts forever.
Both sides wanted a piece of her.
When they tore her away,
Forever gone, Forever lost,
All that remained was her heaven sweetened scent.
I shall never forget her
She will never regret me
I shall always love her
And she was
She was as good as Angels can be when they remove
their halos.
She was two parts Angel, one part demon and all
mine.
She was two parts Angel, one part demon and all
mine.
Heven stole my angel, Hell took my demon.
Love made them into her.
Heven stole my angel, Hell took my demon.
Love made them into her.

Lyrics by KAR
Together is Us
What track could send me into your embrace?
What foolish cupid blasted me with this delicious curse?
I dont see it, I dont get it, I just know that im in love with you.
They say opposites will attract, I say thats just not a fact.
They say love is blind, and that it knows no bounds...
I say what ever the case is, Im an idiot for being in love with you.
I like jazz music, you like rap. I hate to rave, you love to party.
Im in bed by ten, your out until well past then.
Your a single mans weekend reward, Im a romantics foolish tool.
We have more difference than not,
But the one thing we do have in common is us.
Together we are lovers and not others.
Thats because together we are lovers and not others.
Couples are hand in hand living postcard dreams,
We are two different animals confined to a cage
Prisoners of love and fate.
Nothing really matters,
No one really cares,
Just you and me making us.
We have more difference than not,
But the one thing we do have in common is us.
Together we are lovers and not others.
Thats because together we are lovers and not others.
Splendid dreams often become untied,
we never had an illiusion,
we just had us bound in lifes knot.
The farm is different to your streets,
the beach feels wild compared to my lake,
the snow is so cold especially when I feel your suns heat.
Two different worlds we were born,
One odd and one even equal us,
Wisdom is ignored by hearts combined.
We have more difference than not,
But the one thing we do have in common is us.
Together we are lovers and not others.
Thats because together we are lovers and not others.
You and me, them and they
Wherever, when ever, however
Its always going to be just us.
We have more difference than not,
But the one thing we do have in common is us.
Together we are lovers and not others.
Thats because together we are lovers and not others.
Thats because together we are lovers and not others.
Thats because together we are lovers and not others.
Together it is us.
"Not all princesses are blue blooded" Song lyrics
Written by KAR
History has its heroes and villains,
History has its tragedies and triumphs,
Where in history will sit I?
Ive quested beyond my years
Ive felt pain beyond that of imagine,
Ive trialled more than any one should.
It is not unknown for a man to sacrifice
What really is a man without any of this?
What could I be without risking it all for you.
Just a noble, humble ever loyal knight I am
Forvever and a day standing guard of your domain
What will you do with me ?
Many are blessed with blue blood
Otheres merely take the throne
But you are my princess to perfect for anything else
Not all princesses are blue blooded
Born to a life of privelege
Caressed by fates loving grace
I am here to hold your hand
To long you deep in your eyes
To feel your gaze from a far
Not all princesses are blue blooded
Born to a life of privelege
Caressed by fates loving grace
I am by your side never to leave it
I am yours to dispose of as you please
I swore my loyalty the day I saw you
This is not merely another lovers song
But a loyalty oath written by my heart
Not all princesses are blue blooded
Born to a life of privelege
Caressed by fates loving grace
Not all princesses are blue blooded
But my love for you has given you a crown
Do as you please with my heart
Do as you please with my heart
Your Highness....

Lyrics by KAR. Falsehood studios
Having only recently come by this album in a local record store on market day, I have become obsessed with the lyrical genius that is KAR. Since the Keys album I have purchased all his previous work from Amazon and every Tuesday at 7.15pm my partner and I play one of them at random, whilst in a tantric meditative state. I highly recommend this artist and lifestyle.
