Book of SoulsBook of Souls on iTunesBook of Souls on Amazon MP3Audio CD of Book of SoulsBook of Souls | Single | June 2010

The song "Book of Souls" is inspired by the book of the same name by American author Glenn Cooper. Glenn had his debut on the world stage of writing with the publishing of his first book Library of the Dead (Secret of the Seventh Son) which became a bestseller almost overnight. Book of Souls is a great sequel to that great book.

The song deals with the fact that you start looking at things from a different angle when it appears they were predestined.

LoveLove on iTunesLove on AmazonAudio CD of LoveLove | Single | April 2010

Love is an intense song about attraction and seduction in a relation that can't be. A story about longing and giving yourself to someone else even though you know it's not right. Love is a meticulously carved and atmosperic sketch of the forbidden desires that live deep inside everyone.

Corjan: The Masonic MagicianThe Masonic Magician on iTunesThe Masonic Magician on AmazonAudio CD of The Masonic MagicianThe Masonic Magician | Single | December 2009

The inspiration for the fourth song in the Mystery Pop series comes from the book The Masonic Magician co-written by British bestselling authors Philippa Faulks and Robert L.D. Cooper who is a British historian and curator of the Grand Lodge of Scotland Museum and Library.

The song deals with the life and death of the illustrious 18th century adventurer Count Allesandro Cagliostro. He was a cult figure of European society in the tumultuous years leading to the French Revolution as well as an alchemist, healer and Freemason. The song is written from Cagliostro's perspective as he was awaiting his death sentence in an Italian prison.

Corjan: the Bond CodeThe Bond Code on iTunesThe Bond Code on AmazonThe Bond Code Video on YouTubeAudio CD of The Bond CodeThe Bond Code | Single | October 2009

Third song in the Mystery Pop project. Inspired by Philip Gardiner's bestselling book The Bond Code. The book deals with legendary creator of James Bond, British intelligence officer and author Ian Fleming, who discovered the ancient concepts of Gnosis through the works of Carl Jung and worked the ideas into his books. In his song, Corjan gets into Fleming's head and sketches how Fleming lost himself in the character he created and who was everything he ever wanted to be. In Gardiner's own words: "Corjan has written the most amazing Bond song - basically the one they should have used on Quantum of Solace. Brought a tear to my eye"

Corjan: City of Secrets (the Grail in you)The Bond Code on iTunesCity of Secrets on AmazonCity of Secrets Video on YouTubeAudio CD of City of SecretsCity of Secrets (the Grail in you) | Single | September 2009

Second song in the Mystery Pop project. When Patrice Chaplin's book City of Secrets was published in 2004, it caused quite a stir. The book basically recounts how a young woman gets involved with the keeper of the Grail in the Spanish city of Gerona. The book, which is an autobiographical account, is beautifully written and has many touchpoints with the mysteries that are so dear to me. In this song Corjan zooms in on the impossible romance between Patrice and Josep Tarres, the keeper of the Grail.

"Evocative and memorable!"
Patrice Chaplin
