This time paying homage to grandpa. Did I miss any dead folks out this album?
I often stop and think of William
Up on Skinners Ridge
He passed me on his way back down
As I passed from being a kid
A shame you’d say
But aint that the way
Things…
A dramatisation of events from school.. hope 'Shaun' never hears this, and if he does, that he likes it in someway, and that things turned out alright in the end..
It was always rainin.
It filled him up
It summed it up
So perfectly
How nothing…

Jekyll and Hyde
are both well and alive
and they're living inside of home
Jekyll is kind to me
Smiles all the time to me
Hyde is a wild arrow from a bow
As much as Jekyll makes you smile
If she drinks herself some wine
You'll be the one that…

This song is sort of about making a clean break, killing off the lead character in your story and burying him along with all his sins before the inevitable happens, and the bad guy gets his. Initially came from a jam with my mate Ben Price who…

You do have a lot of ideas with Mr soul, bring him with you in June, there is plenty of room in the cellar............ like the marriage between the guitars on the solo and the tinkle on the keys....yes....yes indeed

One of two pretty little interludes for the album, both of which are based around a guitar part Gary did for me. I've put different synth chords behind each of them to cover the two sides of the lady that inspired the full song, Jekyll & Hyde…
This is about my Nan who in some ways was more like a second mum...
You wont be gone when you leave me,
You wont be gone x 2
Cos while I'm alive til the day I die
You'll linger on when you leave me
You'll linger on
I remember how your…
Such a pretty song Alex. Good vocal too. I could say something in answer to your comment to me the other day but I will ignore that and just say great stuff by Gary.

Thank you for being you
No one else would do
Thank you for being you
You're all I ask for
Too many nights alone
tonight I'm coming home
open up the wine cos I'm

Me the ways of old
Women into wives…

Musta been December cause the air mighty cold
A family was moving in, further down the road
They were not the colour of the others in the street
All the kids were laughing at the trainers on their feet
I was only young and so I guess I laughed…
glad you like it buddy.. was one of my favourites off the album as a song but a couple o things went astray during recording and pissed on it a bit. If I wasnt lazy I'd re-record it but yeah.. BANJO!!!
great playing, great track and love the way you recorded. Fancy doing something similar for next year maybe. its got the nice cozy feeling of the old crusty blues and folk cuts. awesome
Another one without lyrics. The title was my workingtitle. And I just thought it was a funny title (I think Rage Against the Machine is kind of silly) I quite like some of the sounds on this one (it's a Poly 800 through an Electro Harmonix Big…
Here the idea was that I was going to write from the viewpoint of someone who is paralyzed from the neck down and can through technology only watch other peoples life but not participate. It turned out a bit more general and ambiguous than that.

1.Afsluitdijk
...is a Dutch word and it's the name of the dam/road going from the province Friesland to North-Holland (and Amsterdam) The lyrics are about a 15-year old boy who feels so trapped in the boring Frisian town he's living in that he…
what a great track to kick off with. Love everything about it.. not sure I've heard your stuff before. So catchy, makes you want to listen to more. Which is what I'm gonna do now. :)
A chance gtr line turns into a big production. This is a song I wrote for myself, meaning it's probably too long, it probably has too many parts and it probably has too much going on in it. YET, I don't care. I wrote it for me. Oh, and I am very…
A song I've had stored in my head for quite awhile, though never committed to tape (erm... binary code) - probably because I thought it was a bit simple and even trite. Having to come up with an album's worth of material in a month cured me of…
Lyrics:
Pass me a handle of that old time tennessee
It's been a while since I've seen the devil
It's a common mistake to think that I'm a sweet and gentle soul
but give me a chance to change your mind
Cause you have never seen me like…
red cowboy and hot burrito were recordings done for a friend of mine who wanted to check out his new (old) drum machine. Both drum parts are constructed from prerecorded beats (from presets or previous owner, I don't know) and have 4-5 bass tracks…
this couldnt be more kick ass if it actually jumped out from the laptop and booted me. Its like the theme to the most deranged cop show ever. And it kinda makes me feel like doing something bad. I'm off to the park to kick pigeons.
