1. ROD is the newborn … Read Full Bio ↴There are multiple artists/groups called Rod.
1. ROD is the newborn alter-ego of Rotterdam based Benny Rodrigues, currently one of the most popular and inspiring electronic music artists of the Netherlands. Known for his ver-satility, Benny has chosen this additional artist name to clearly define the more Techno oriented side of his musical identity. ROD's critically acclaimed debut-release "Malmok" was released on Ben Klock's Klock-works label and formed the start of a fruitful discog that reads very positively received re-leases on various renowned labels such as Chris Liebing's CLR Recordings and Richie Hawtin's M_nus Records.
2. An annual danish folk ensemble called ROD, consisting of young musicians playing traditional, contemporary, and experimental folk tunes. The project has existed since 1995, and takes place every Easter.
3. Rod is a bona fide musician, electronic or otherwise and has been playing synths as long as he’s been able to walk. His deep affair with music stemmed from an early love of electronic landscapes and the machines that created them.
In his teens Rod began writing and producing hard breakbeat, a style that was to eventually mellow as his own taste in music broadened. His focus shifting to the subtle melodics and nuances of hip-hop and psychedelic rock.
He has been making music quietly in his home studio for over 10 years, while also playing hammond organ with various bands; his own music only recently appearing on various compilations from record labels such as Neo Ouija, Underscan & Front End Synthetics. He is currently working on his first full length solo debut.
Rod is currently getting huge responses from all over the place for the title track of his new EP "All My Love" which appeared some time ago on the Neo Ouija compilation titled "Vestibule and Separate". In conjunction with German electronic lable Underscan, we are now making the track available on both 12" & CD for the first time.
4. The French artist called Rod:
Well, he was born in Orleans (the old one) in 1971, learned guitar at 15 but never was a hard worker, smoked at 17 and re-discovered the Beatles, Pink Floyd and Jimi Hendrix with his first psychedelic group: Wired. After they split, he made his own album where he could do whatever he wants. This was Noises In My Head, recorded more than ten years ago. After two more bands were set up and split, he turned to the technical side of the music but he strongly think about making a second one.
All My Love

I'll be your man of good faith
When in love you live
I'll make a stand, I won't break
I'll be the rock you can lean on, oh
Be there when you're old
To have and to hold
I swear I'll always be strong
And there's a reason why
I'll prove to you we belong
I'll be the wall that protects you, yeah
From the wind and the rain
From the hurt and the pain, yeah, oh
Let's make it all for one and all for love
Let the one you hold be the one you want
The one you need
'Cause when it's all for one it's one for all
When there's someone that you know
Then just let your feelings show
And make it all for one and all for love
When it's love you make
I'll be the fire in your night
Then it's love you take
I will defend, I will fight
I'll be there when you need me
When honor's at stake
This vow I will make, yeah

Let the one you hold be the one you want

And make it all for one and all for love
Don't lay our love to rest
'Cause we could stand up to the test
We got everything and more than we had planned
More than the rivers that run inland
We got it all in our hands
Now it's all for one and all for love
Let the one you hold be the one you want
The one you need
'Cause when it's all for one it's one for all
When there's someone that you know
Then just let your feelings show
When there's someone that you want
When there's someone that you need
Let's make it all, all for one
And all for love
The song "All My Love" by Rod Stewart is an upbeat and optimistic song that expresses a desire to break away from the monotony of modern life and find happiness and love in a new and exciting environment. The song begins with the singer waking up in the morning, watching the news, and feeling bored and discontented with his routine life. He dreams of buying a small house by the ocean and betting everything on love and happiness. In the chorus, he sings about sailing away to Mexico to live out all of his days, free from the constraints of his old life.
The second verse is more detailed and colorful, describing the singer's plans to grow his hair out, find a girlfriend, and explore the nightlife and entertainment scene in Mexico. He imagines himself learning to cha-cha and sipping piña coladas on a midnight trampoline. He encourages the listener to join him in this adventure, promising a cold beer waiting at the beachside bar.

I get up in the morning
I start my day early
And while I'm still yawning
And even though I'm tired
I watch the television and digest the news
I watch the news to stay informed
I gotta get away from the routine and the boredom
I need a break from the monotonous daily life
The monotony of modern life won't be the death of me
I won't let the routine and monotony of modern life kill me
Now you may think it funny but I've saved up all my money
You may find it funny but I've saved all my money
To buy a little shack where the ocean meet the sky
To buy a small house by the beach
And if I were a gambling man, sir, which thank the Lord I'm not, sir
And if I were a risk-taker, which I'm not
I'd bet my last dollar on love and happiness
I would bet everything I have on love and happiness
Sail away, sail away
Let's go far away
I'm gonna find the sunshine to live out all my days
I'm going to find happiness to live my life
I'm going down to Mexico to live out all my days
I'm going to Mexico to find joy and live my life
I'd comb my hair to shoulder length, I might even find a girlfriend
I'll change my appearance, maybe even find love
We'll find all of the hotspots on a midnight trampoline
We'll find all the fun places to go at night
They'll teach us how to cha-cha while drinking piña colada
We'll learn new things and enjoy ourselves
We'll dance to the rhythm of the sun, sea and sand
We'll dance and enjoy the beach and ocean
Now if you wanna join us
If you want to come with us
We're in a place called gorgeous
We're in a beautiful place
There'll be a cold beer waiting in the bar down on the beach
We'll have a cold beer waiting for us at the beach bar
Now what do you got to lose, friend?
What do you have to lose, my friend?
Throw caution to the wind, friend
Take a risk and live a little, my friend
For once in your life do something for you
Do something that makes you happy, for once in your life
All my days
My whole life
