“Allow me to carve timeless memories upon the heart of life, leaving gentle footprints through every harmonic note I play.”)

“Once in a lifetime, there is a moment so special and unique that it will never come again… Without it, you feel as if you have nothing. There is always a prayer for him when you are alone. In the depths of your heart, there is a name you can never forget.”

“It’s a story about the journey of life: falling, rising, struggling, loving, being loved, and enduring heartbreak. It’s the whole story told through melody.”

The Man and His Stories

“The Man and His Stories” is a transatlantic musical collaboration composed and produced by OMBASS, featuring evocative lyrics and lead vocals by English singer – songwriter Jimmy Melia. Blending poignant piano-led arrangements and rich string dynamics with candid lyrical storytelling, this seven-track record captures the full arc of the human experience—from the anti-war resonance of “War as Politicians Play Their Games” and the breezy cross-border harmony of “Save the Love” (feat. Nadya Bwefar), to the steadfast solidarity of “Two Holding Hands” and the quiet grace of “Leave.” It is an intimate, cinematic exploration of love, resilience, and time.

Loss in Space

“Lost in Space” is a poignant, space-age allegorical ballad composed and produced by OMBASS, featuring evocative storytelling, lyrics, and lead vocals by English songwriter Jimmy Melia.

The single uses cosmic exile and interplanetary isolation as an emotional metaphor for familial separation, personal failure, and redemption. Intercut with spoken dialogue between a mother and child confronting an absent father, the narrative traces a journey of regret—from leaving Earth to “fix the world,” to the humbling realization that his true universe was always his daughter back home.

“Thought I had a better plan, but now I realise who I am,
You’re my little blue pearl in the sky, my little girl.
I’ll cross the universe to be with you again,
I’ll change my ways to be that man.”
— Lyrics by Jimmy Melia
