This article presents a continuously updated A-Z index presenting quotations, views and statements by Michel Montecrossa (www.MichelMontecrossa.com), 21st century’s outstanding musician & writer & painter & moviemaker and philosopher.
A
Art
Michel Montecrossa about art:
“Art in all forms opens for us the gates to the worlds of consciousness. This is the true meaning of art and not merely the form, style or technique. My work in the fields of music, filmproduction, painting, architecture, literature, poetry and philosophy opens some of these doors.”

Barack Obama
Michel Montecrossa on ‘New President’ and Barack Obama:
“I wrote and composed the song ‘New President’ as an inspiration to be truthful, to bring peace and unity of all mankind. I have sent this song to Barack Obama who liked it and was thankful for getting it. Barack Obama answered to Michel Montecrossa on 25th October 2008:
‘Keep on moving with your saving message.’
Barack Obama is the hope that the American Dream comes back again for the best of all – the true American Dream of liberty and happiness in a world of unlimited possibilities. He can bring a new outlook to politics for a better future.
In the song ‘New President’ the key-message is:
‘New President, New Power, New Action, New Intentions and I hope for sure: new also the direction.
Don’t be another President but be the true President telling truth, bringing peace, working for World-Union on this earth.’”
Biography
“Alien Visits”, says Michel Montecrossa, (‘Alien Visits’ is the title of Michel Montecrossa’s authorized multimedia biography) “is not limited to linear reading but open to intuitive reading, listening, seeing. My life is not on the surface. It is not one-dimensional. It is interactive and expresses itself always new and different in reaction to every given moment. The intuitive quality therefore is essential for understanding and entering into my life-stream. Alien Visits is a magic multimedia box. Open it and dive into cyberrock-experience-world. Freely choose any of the artbooks, read the line that attracts your attention, experience the art, listen to songs or enter into the energy of the movies. Let the uniqueness of that very moment speak and you will experience my biography as much as you experience yourself. Every time you do this you will always find a new dimension, a new door opening before your inner and outer eyes. My biography ultimately happens in the ever progressing now, it is living in the truth and walking on the mirror.”
C
Child
“Who is the child of tomorrow? Is it the one that comes with the sense of unity, peace, love and joy ending all bloodshed and bitter misunderstanding?
The child of tomorrow is first born in us who already live. Are we living unity, peace, love and joy?
Think straight and you know the answer of the future.”
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa about the ‘Child Of Tomorrow’ Cyberrock & Slam Poetry Song Concert)
Christmas
‘Festival Of Light’ expresses the universal meaning of christmas as the birth of light, love and peace on earth – values which are meaningful to every human being and the basis of true progress for a better future.
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa – pressinfo for his CD ‘Festival Of Light’)
Michel Montecrossa says: “‘My Christmas’ are heartfelt songs of insight, tenderness, love and hope for a better future. They are not sentimental but straightforward with warmth and beauty.

(Reference: Michel Montecrossa; pressinfo for his CD ‘My Christmas’ – Michel Montecrossa sings Alternative Christmas Songs of Hope, Love and Beauty)
Climate Change
“The demons that ride humanity are like volcanos erupting, like waves surging, like thunderstorms growling, like cyclones howling, like fire screaming, like earthquakes rumbling, like sunrays burning, like ice melting, like oceans and rivers rising, like deserts expanding, like global warming, like ice-age coming, like climate changing, like air mutating, like water fading – the brain echoes of the planet’s language, the call of evolution, the drive of consciousness growing.
From within or from without: It’s the way of change. Listen to the planet, listen to the soul, understand destiny and know what to do.”
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa about his 6 CD-Box of the ‘Planet’ Cyberrock & Slam Poetry Song Concert)
“At the Spirit of Woodstock Festival 2009 in Mirapuri me and my band perform our 10 days ‘Alternative Future’ concert series. During these concerts we present topical songs dealing with the life on our rapidly changing earth and the impact these changes have on our future.
We all have to face times when we can no longer switch back the clock or overlook the facts that give a new meaning and reality to our life.
We have to adapt quickly to the existential problems of risin’ food-, energy- and housing-prices, dwindling natural resources, energy wars, growing pollution, deterioration of human values, work, wages and education along with global climate change.
The next future will be as good as is our present goodwill, understanding, awareness and consciousness.
The ‘Alternative Future’ concerts turn to this future with high-energy songs and lyrics that put right what went wrong, make you listen and make you think.”
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa about his 10 days ‘Alternative Future’ Concerts at the Spirit of Woodstock Festival 2009 in Mirapuri)

It’s Cyberrock and Metal Fusion and it’s also Power-Dance and Techno-Dancedrive with a healthy dose of Nu-Romance and the wide ranges of Cybersymphony. Anyway, it’s Cyberrock and Cybersymphony unified. You see, I come from a background of do it yourself ethics and together with my musicians I create something quite new. Well, it’s Cybermusic. The music and the lyrics go together and have this strong message of power, love, peace and happiness. In my music the hero is Bruce Lee and in my poetry and my songlyrics it’s Picasso. That means I do in my music what Bruce Lee was doin’ in martial art and I do in my lyrics what Picasso did in his paintings … So better come to the show!”

Deep-Brain-Art is one with the morphogenetic field of the people of the world to do them good.

The mission of my Deep-Brain-Art is to bring these future-oriented qualities to the awareness of the people all over the world.

(Reference: Michel Montecrossa about the ‘Green Earth’ Cyberrock & Climate Change Concert)
“The ‘Sweet Earth’ production”, says Michel Montecrossa, “are songs for planet earth, they sing for our future. We have to see, hear and understand the signals of earth if we do not want to lose our future and the world along with it. Each one of my songs speaks in music for a better tomorrow, gives the taste and the feeling of a One World Consciousness. They are peoples songs, they are songs of encouragement to do the right thing to save the climate of our earth both inside and outside of us.”
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa about his Double CD ‘Sweet Earth – Save The Climate Of Our Earth #1′)
“The earth mystery is revealed in every blooming rose and in our feeling of how lovely and fair she is.
The earth mystery is revealed in every moment of soul meeting nature and of nature touching soul. The earth mystery is revealed when in love we turn to her.”
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa about the ‘Earth Mystery’ Cyberrock & Slam Poetry Song Concert)
Ecological Music
“Ecological music is holistic, friendly and intelligent. It stands for the good, shows character, is strong with healthy life, makes you wake up from a fool’s dream.”
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa about his CD ‘Ecological Music’ – Spirit of Woodstock Festival 2008)
Eros
“No eros without devotion. No cosmos without body. No joy without dance. No music without girls. No home without love.”
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa about his CD ‘Erotic Devotion’ – Spirit of Woodstock Festival 2008)
F
Female
“The male and female secret meet in her eyes black as night. They behold the archetypal mother and the sun-father. Temptation and desire are the atomic energy that blasts the prison of your mind.”
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa about his CD ‘Her Eyes Black As Night’ – Spirit of Woodstock Festival 2008)
Françoise Hardy
“Françoise Hardy brings a rare vision of beauty, charm and wonder to songmusic. With her voice and personality she has opened the door to a feeling which is both heavenly and sensual. Her music is in a simple and honest way free from limiting bondage to superficial trends and the soundstructures surrounding her are expressive of this unique european – mediterranean flair which is loved all over the world. Françoise Hardy is the sweet and touching artist of taste, freshness and emotion making a light shine through her apparent fragility – the light of her strong soul. It is in appreciation of these qualities of Françoise Hardy’s music and art that I made this production. ‘Time to Change’ is my own way of expression. It is different but at the same time close to the same inner source which is behind Françoise’s way of telling things. The selection of songs which Françoise Hardy performed includes ‘Love Me Tender’, probably the only song in which Elvis Presley participated as original songwriter. To many of the other songs Françoise Hardy wrote the lyrics. The music is composed by various artists which I all like, in particular Michel Berger and Jaques Lacome. All original french lyrics were translated by me into english except ‘Message Personnel’ which was translated by Françoise Hardy and Michel Berger. In addition to the songs originally performed by Françoise Hardy I contribute my own songs; songs which I love to sing for Françoise as a warm greeting and ‘Thank You’ for her great music of tender strength.”

Global
“The global message is the message of union for the best of all.”
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa about the ‘Global Message’ Cyberrock & Climate Change Concert)
Global Warming
“Me and my musicians are convinced that music can move higher energies. To sing for peace and combat global warming is for me a deepest inner need that I share with a growing number of the human family all over the world. I am singing for all of them and for a better future. My songs are not merely information. They are message and call to cooperate for saving the earth of all of us and in this sense they are also a prayer-chant.”
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa interviewed by Gianni Mongrandi)
H
Humanity
“Humanity and world-unity are the saving message.
It is a saving message and true victory to be always on the side of freedom and progress with courage and love.
It brings to our world the living celebration of humanity and opens the way to world-unity.
Then the day comes when all barriers have fallen, within and around us and we can feel like the bird that opens its wings for an unopposed soar.”

Lyrics

M
Michel Montecrossa
“I grew up in an environment of freedom and do-it-yourself ethics. My father played violin in Memphis, my mother was singing in a choir in Vienna. They met in Paris, and when I was born they joined a travelin’ artists group doin’ all kinds of performances in the States and on the way from France up to India and back: acting, happenings, music – all kinds of shows.
As a child I was fascinated by electronical experimental soundstructures which were used by the group for dance and lightshows. I was about five when I created an electronical soundimage for an art-happening. As a teenager I made films and played guitar. Many ideas from that time grew into songs afterwards. A free-mind stand, saying and singing what one is doing is a natural thing to me. My story is in the music, my life is the message. … It’s the challenge of taking the responsibility for your life with courage, high spirit, dedication to music, commitment to those who listen.”
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa about himself in an interview with the journalist Diana Oslow)
Music
“Song-music and instrumental-music”, says Michel Montecrossa, “both have the same origin in the highest creative consciousness. They are two ways for expressing the joy, the energy, the tenderness and the happy feeling of life coming through consciousness expanding experience. Song-music and instrumental-music in their cyber-modern as well as in their classical-modern forms are therefore a harmoniously self-fulfilling completeness in my artistic work. My concerts are the live presentation of this creative unity, in a future oriented way bringing together song- and instrumental music.”
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa in video interview ‘My Music’)
“I’m convinced that music can change the world if it commands the necessary intelligence and inspiring quality.”
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa interviewed by Gianni Mongrandi)
N
New-Topical-Song-Movement
Michel Montecrossa:

To distribute the songs globally via internet, shops, radio & TV and get the messages discussed and cited in newspapers, magazines, talk shows, social networks and gatherings.
The New-Topical-Songs are songs for the people and a world where we all vote, eat, work, talk, plan, think and love together so that your people will know my people and we don’t lose the peace and the world along with it.”
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa about his New-Topical-Song-Movement)

Politics
TRUE POLITICS #2 – LYRICS:
True Politics is the one leading to peace and to freedom beyond systems and wars, beyond conflicts and ideologies, beyond all the walls of the human mind.
True politics is the one leading to the growing joy beyond barbed wire fences, beyond concentration camps and ethnic slaughter, beyond all the instincts of the human animal.
True politics is the one the soul will understand ’cause it’s talking true, ’cause it does what it says,
’cause love is its keyword and the happy vision of a higher world.
True politics is the one everyone will surely like from east to west, from north to south on this earth and any other, now and in the future.
True politics is the one uniting the whole world, removing borders and bombs, founding a new science and World Culture of Truth, of conscious becoming.
True politics is the one which began one day with a change on earth but indeed was there a long time, my friend, in a Mind of Light.
– Michel Montecrossa (© Mira Sound Germany)

Q
R
Relations
“Who’s the king? And who is coming? It’s the erotic mind that’s ready for the answers. It’s all about relations. Good relations are answers. Bad relations are disasters. Man and woman, boy and girl, earth and life, future and past, climate and war, energy and war, food and war, liberty and hate, love and love …”
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa about his CD ‘The King Is Comin’ – Spirit of Woodstock Festival 2008)
S
Solidarity
“Good times, bad times, work, no work, worry, happiness, peace, revolution, catastrophe, war and isms: In all we need solidarity to find our way through, to come out of mean and low treatment, to help each other, to go beyond narrow thinking, to make life better and to live and celebrate humanity.
In my songs I sing and speak my mind so that you and me can get together and let new ideas grow like trees and flowers because we believe in something and understand the good of solidarity, of working together, of caring for earth and people and honest peace.
Solidarity is what my new topical song movement is about.”
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa about his Solidarity Solo Acoustic Concert)
Song
“A song,” Michel Montecrossa says “is no song unless you can sing it alone with your soul and voice and guitar before the whole world. Only if it is like that you may also sing it together with a wild band or a mega-orchestra. But the real songs are great with just a voice and a straight guitar. Tunes that need big fiddle-farting to give them something like an existence are just a bluff, not really there.”
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa about his CD ‘Cool On The Other Side’)
Songmusic
Michel Montecrossa’s genius-way of creating and performing intelligent and emotionally sensitive songmusic reaches with ‘Something’s Crushin’ In’ the height of intensity that can make a lone balladeer the voice of the world and can make the world listen.
‘Something’s Crushin’ In’ features twelve Michel Montecrossa master songs touching the criminal heart of our time of fear, anguish, war, pain and suffering as well as the soul of our time with its love and bright hopes that have never been so strongly and poignantly visible as in our contradictory and brutal world of today.
(Reference: press release for Michel Montecrossa’s Unplugged Audio CD & DVD ‘Something’s Crushin’ In’)
Songwriter
Michel Montecrossa says: “As a songwriter and performing artist it is my duty to do the best I can for helping to ease the pain, suffering and fear through positive and intelligent songs. ‘End All Your Wars’ as well as the other productions ( ‘Festival Of Light‘, ‘Song Of Love‘, ‘Weltpolitik‘ and ‘New Message‘ ) form a body of work addressed to an audience that wants to listen, wants to find a way through the dark tunnel, wants to love and look forward.”
Soul
“There is an intimate relation between man’s soul and the earth.
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa about the ‘Soul & Earth’ Cyberrock & Slam Poetry Song Concert)
Space-Age
“Space-age drive is bound to come if we want to survive. The answers are in the wideness, not in smallness.”
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa about the ‘Space Age Drive’ Cyberrock & Climate Change Concert)

(Reference: Michel Montecrossa about his OLYMPIC song and movie ’Believe In Your Dream’)
BELIEVE IN YOUR DREAM – LYRICS:
Believe in your dream. Hear fortune sing. Listen – and change your scene. Standin’ still is no deal.
Stand up for your dream. Conquer strength and will. See the chance within. Take hold of the best thing to win.
Don’t give up! Never stop! Fight and gain the power! You’re the winner – you are real! Believe in your destiny!
Fulfil your dream. In your dream is the key. Your victory is near. Reach the goal and be free.
– Michel Montecrossa (© Mira Sound Germany)

Sun and peace together for the good of all.
Sun and peace together for the world to come.”
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa about the ‘Sun And Peace’ Cyberrock & Slam Poetry Song Concert)

Vision
“Love is Divine. Emotion is Human. Arousal is Terrestrial.
The drive of consciousness gives vision. Vision shows cosmic unity. Unity gives peace and joy.
Tomorrow’s world-leaders are astronauts. They see how small our planet is and how great is love. They see the tenderness and fragility of the earth’s atmosphere.
Love unites and is good for the earth and its atmosphere.
When you reach the contact with the Divine’s love you see this love in everything and all circumstances.”
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa about the ‘Future Vision’ Cyberrock & Slam Poetry Song Concert)

W
War
War is hell, wherever it starts. / It turns into a bullet once it burns in your heart. / Armies are marching, shakin’ the ground. / But it’s in your mind where love first is turned down.
War is hell, ’bout that there’s no doubt. / It harms and destroys the Worldsoul’s house, / takes up all your lies to make you foolish and loud. / And it’s in your mind where love first is blown out.
War is hell, whatever you might say. / It starts with a quarrel, leads you astray. / It’s in every moment if you aren’t awake. / And it’s up to you to let love go all the way.
There are a million reasons, but the Truth is one. / Compassion and trust are stronger than arms. / The loving embrace is what everybody wants. / And it’s only together that we can reach the dawn.
War is hell, wherever it starts. / It turns into a bullet once it burns in your heart. / Armies are marching, shakin’ the ground. / But it’s in your mind where love first is turned down.
(Reference: Michel Montecrossa – song lyrics for his song ‘War Is Hell’)
.Michel Montecrossa says: “The twenty songs of ‘End All Your Wars’ are arranged to create a coherent atmosphere of intelligent, mature and kindhearted feelings which are profound but not complicated; feelings that make it easy to follow the story. The songs of ‘End All Your Wars’ are no kiddin’ stuff, no cheap entertainment. They are prepared to make a stand, they don’t hold back, they don’t hide or pretend. They look forward and give hope, they are on the side of love and happiness.

“Die Weltpolitik von der ich singe ist eine Weltpolitik des Herzens.
Sie lebt in der Seele des Menschen durch Freude, Mitgefühl, Liebe und Grösse.
Sie ist stark mit dem Traum der Weltvereinigung, in der die Völker und Kulturen zusammenarbeiten für die Verwirklichung einer besseren Zukunft des Friedens und des Fortschritts.”
