Just been listening to Mott The Hoople - made me think of this, so back for another listen. Every bit as good as I remembered...
And guess what??
My favourite button worked!! :-)
Oh, I LOVE this. It reminds me of all sorts of influences from my past - you've squeezed elements of nearly every act I like into it and ended up coming out with something that, to me, feels totally original.
Hats off to you, sir.
She hangs a little garden
so everyone can fit in her yard
when it's time to take tea
fills it up when they're walking about
they really knew how to twist and shout
and they're always going back that way again
rents a flat with his sister…
This one rewards repeated listening... (I especially love the instrumental break before the last verse). I'd like to put this tune on our community radio station, if you don't mind. (WUTZ radio, 88.3 in Summertown, TN) ~ Let me know if that's okay.
Heres the 2nd Track for the RPM challenge ....Reg really does not want to go back behind the door...he's afraid of his own shadow...poor old Reg......
I don't want to go Back (Lyrics)
tick tick goes the clock once more
i don’t know who i am anymore…
Toward You
-
With each new day I'll seek a way
To get as close as I may
Toward you
It's my destiny to set you free
Until then I can only see
Toward you
Throughout the night under the light
Of the moon I drive
Toward you
Through rain and snow…
a wee short one
A long time has passed since we last met
I hope that life’s been treating you well
And what are you up to these days
Are you with somebody else
And do you see any of the old crowd
I wonder where they all are now
The years…

billy boy where did you go
sittin in a pile of snow
come on down its gettin cold
for the time is getting old
well we made our way to the old wigwam
frozen lake and wind was calm
standing bow did strike a deer
to feed the tribe…
Wonderful song, James, very innocent and dreamy. It builds in increments very nicely and is well paced. Has a sort of Blue Nile meets Peter Gabriel flavor.
I have found some old Tapes of Reg's Great Grandfather old Blind Melon Reg who emigrated back to Sheffield from the states in the early 40's to fight for king and country these are the lost tapes of him playing live at the cellar from way back…
sup, odh, I like this and the 'Friends of Mine' cover, two bands I dig and think you do nice, personal covers of both. The swirling, subtle distortion in the far corners is lovely.
A complete re-vamp of a 6 year old song. Sure I wrote the lyrics while on holiday in Majorca, rewrote a couple of lines, picked up me ole guitar last week & just played this tune & it all seem to fit. Could need a lay down now !!!!
For the grandchildren, when I get some!
Moonbee started life as a doodle, then he was turned into a little story, then a song!
This is Part 1 of the series - I have no idea how many there will be in total!
Enjoy! xox
P.S. This is…

I appreciate that, thanks CS.
Nice one, Brett! I don't know how you come up with some of this stuff, but don't ever stop!!

This track is one of my old time favourites. It should be playing on at least one jukebox somewhere at all times.
Thank ya, sir.

Thank you very much, Andrew (and guest), glad you like it.

Love your vocal an excellent track....
Thank you!
Hey, great songs! I really dig your sound(s). This one would make Bob Pollard proud. Psyched to hear more!
hey, what's up, thanks odh.
This came on my ipod this morning. It's a great song. I had to play it twice.
thanks
I've had a few listens before but non were proper..Like your voice - Early Robert Plant:) Great mood.

awesome
I appreciate that, thanks CS.
cool song dudes. I like the drone, vaguely reminiscent of Genesis' Back in NYC.
thanks (for about the hundredth time) ;)
Wild, ha. I always enjoy your dark imagination. Terry Gilliam-eque circus trip.
Cooool. There's a certain odd clash to the chant-ish vocals and the folk-y instrumentals that gives it a uniqueness.
This is nice, A very sweet and honest tune.
I like this one, CS. Very simple and effective. Good work on the RPM man.
Thank ya, sir.
Wonderful track, ORH, it's simple and doesn't try to be more or less than it is. Hits the nail on the head, so to speak.
Thank you very much, Andrew (and guest), glad you like it.
Thank you!
Maybe it's just 'cause it was mentioned, but I'm hearing Steely Dan too, especially if you imagine more elaborate harmonies over parts. Good song!
very cool, sir... has a kind of laid back 90's pop/rock feel.
Wonderful song, James, very innocent and dreamy. It builds in increments very nicely and is well paced. Has a sort of Blue Nile meets Peter Gabriel flavor.
ha, awesome.
sup, odh, I like this and the 'Friends of Mine' cover, two bands I dig and think you do nice, personal covers of both. The swirling, subtle distortion in the far corners is lovely.
hey, what's up, thanks odh.
I like this one a lot, has that late 80's/90's psychedelic revival flavor and smoothness to it.
Super whimsical, fun stuff, very cute.
