This single white rose bloomed on our rosebush on Easter Monday, the day of Pope Francis passing.
The white rose is a symbol of purity, innocence, respect, reverence and everlasting love.
Pope Francis was a living example of all these. Sadly a shining light has left this Earth.
We will always remember his heart was in the right place with a loving smile across his face.
Pope Francis Rest In Peace.

For those moments when life is eternal, uncertain, listen “Winds of Time” from “Sahara CyberStars”

“For us it is already a perfect soundtrack to listen to on a nostalgic night under the moon and the starlight. So find the right spot and delight your soul with this hit”

Happy Easter - Let there be Peace.

“One of the striking aspects of Winds of Time is the raw, unwavering exploration of social issues. The fourth verse, “Then we built up mighty fences / To live in fear behind defences”emphasizes the divisions and distrust that have characterized much of the modern world, with the last line:”For the power of greed came to plunder / Oh pull our world asunder”, which serves as a grim reminder of the destructive power that uncontrolled greed can have on society. In a world that constantly struggles with change, feels Winds of Time as a much needed national anthem for reflection. The song captures a universal sense of loss and hope, with its gripping message of unity and resilience. Sahara Cyberstars has created something timeless - a song that will resonate with listeners long after its release.”

“It is one of those pieces that are most enjoyed with headphones, closing the eyes. A melody that caresses and, at the same time, invites you to think.”

“Dave’s raspy, weathered lead vocals convey wisdom and weariness in equal measure, while Trish’s saxophone solo adds a soulful, unexpected twist. The production, self-engineered at their Goldrush Music Studio, balances organic warmth with cinematic scope, making “Winds of Time” feel like a lost classic unearthed for today’s struggles.Final Verdict: “Winds of Time” is more than a rock song—it’s a time capsule and a compass. For listeners weary of empty escapism, it offers something rare: music that stares down darkness but still believes in light.”

“The words are powerful, but the melody is as enticing and expressive. Blending elements of vintage soul with classic rock, ‘Winds of Time’ has a hard-hitting sweep of nostalgic music; I’ll admit, I believe this older tone and style might enhance the profoundness of ‘Winds of Time’. While Dave Long’s soaring guitars, keyboards and bold vocals leap toward the sounds of Jimmy Page and Robert Plant, it is Trish Long’s alto sax and light harmonies that really tug at your heartstrings.”

“Between gallant tones, uplifting ideas, harmonious sounds, and a majestic dream rock vibe, you can find comfort and healing, so rejoice in this great track right now.”

“From the first notes, the duo formed by Dave and Trish Long creates an atmosphere marked by a powerful melancholy’, carried by a careful instrumentation that fuses acoustic and electric guitars, subtle vocal harmonies and aerial interventions of alto and soprano saxophone. The versatile talent of the duo is undeniable...The lyrics, far from being innocuous, take on the appearance of an ecological and societal manifesto : « For the power of greed came to plunder, pull our world asunder ». Behind this catchy melody lies a sharp critique of our time, inviting everyone to a saving awareness...perfectly capturing the’ state of our tormented era. Sahara CyberStars signs here a powerful ode to hope, a necessary reminder that the future belongs to us, provided we act today’.”

“’Winds of Time’ brings the sound of classic rock with a more modern twist... we continue talking about high-level references to rock ballads from the 70s and 80s, and comparing them to Sahara CyberStars is synonymous with nostalgia and musical delight. This band is for those nostalgic fans of Toto, Michael Bolton and Roxette. There are also touches of southern rock, so there is no chance of going wrong when adding Sahara CyberStars to your playlist... Sahara CyberStars is on the right path to be a rising name in the music scene.”

“‘Winds of Time’ is a track that delivers to listeners a striking vocal line, with beautiful wind arrangements, very well executed drums and great backings... this is a work that questions us many things that are happening globally”
