Just letting out my frustration at 'people' in general again.. nice to be able to vent it in a more pleasant way (for those interested in how I used to do it, please see http://alonetone.com/boynamedsu) :)
Lo and behold now holy guacamole if…
This provides a theory which ties together two of my key traits a) always tired b) terminally disappointed by peoples lack of courtesy - there's a link people!
Did you ever feel so down
That you didnt know up
Didnt recognise highs
And smiles…
A folksy number inspired by the stories my nan told me many moons ago about her uncle Herbie..
Herein lies the story, of a man named Herbie Jones.
Not a million miles away from a man you might have known.
A miner in the twenties, blue scars…
Requires work. Would be the first thing to say.. not least the bloody clipping. Just wanted to post something to prove im not dead.
The song is inspired by my counselor kindly allowing me to leave my guilt with her last time i saw her. i told…

I love your stuff. I feel like we might share a lot in terms of our philosophy on music; if it's not personal, raw emotion/experience, what's the point?
i'll have to come back to keep working my way through your work (:

Admital - the main guitar part for this was written and recorded for last RPM (shock horror!)but I had to give up on it when the file corrupted. Managed to salvage the audio though so rebuilt it around that. This year I managed to mix down just…

When You Least Expect It
And you're out to dry
And its all too hectic
Thats when it comes x 2
And it feels electric
And you feel alive
Cos when you least expect…
Have no idea where this one came from. I was strumming away and the words just came out. Seems to be about some kind of wrongdoing in the past. May have been possessed. Thanks again to Gary for helping out on lead..
In sleepy towns through…
Got bumps on my body
One under my eye
Been there since birth
I don't know why
Have one on my leg and one on my back
I guess it's better than having a heart attack
Someone said "Know thyself" he was pretty wise
I thought I knew me pretty…
Final version
An unaccompanied song about bedtime. Not a lullaby though. Oh no!
What does anyone think of the 'cat's moustache' line - it seems like that's a make or break call right there and i like it when i read it but it's hard to sing without…
A live studio take,made in San Francisco's "Different Fur Studio"deep in the heart of the "mission district"..a live audience made it a lot of fun!2010
Final version
One of my heroes. Willie McTell was blind from birth and travelled all over the south in the thirties at a time when many people would never go more than 20 miles from their home.
Plus nobody sings the blues quite like him…
Final version of this tune - voice and guitar, banjoe accompaniment
i'm still getting used to this new mic and finding my voice sounds different with or i'm singing differently because of it. So .. feedback appreciated, and if you like it…
like the stumbly rhythm to this.. cant see anything particularly adversely affected vocals wise butty. sounds fine to me. thats all im onna say about that
~Decrepit shadow of a piano in the shadows of former visitors~
I've played in such a cafe, a long time ago, for a meal/drink, thru the night. Surreal it was; second life. Yeah ...
instant.. i hate 4 in the morning. 3 can still be the end of a good night. but 4's always shit whether you've just got in or just got up. Four in the morning!!!
Lyrics
Take the lift and your half way up....
Reach the top and your half way up...
You didn’t see your rise, and Lost your way.....
Looking down on the world your tears fall...
You Missed the Beauty of the climb.
And now you’re…
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…
