Bit of a waltz.
Everything I know about dancing I learned from watching.
This is my piano debut.
Bethan deserves some of the blame for this one somehow. Thanks.
Dang, everyone except Rob (and Laura) (and me) liked the previous version! (Cupid's Own Knife)
Only i did this with the lyrics so maybe one can be a bonus track ...
aargghh ... why didn't i write a *different* song?
We have an old and senile cat with a dodgy thyroid gland who is a total pain in the bum. I know she can't help it but god she annoys me, so this song is therapy. It's a love/hate thing. Recorded as part of RPM 2010
Standing, waiting, shivering, waiting, hoping, waiting, crying - all the while being cruelly mocked by the passage of time, and my analogue watch. It was not a very nice night.
Peter Fedofsky plays the piano on this song.
If you could…
A nasty little story wrapped in a very short country song.
When I took your tiny hand it struck me cold
And I though cool hands warm hands warm heart is what I've been
But I know that wasn't
When It came to one like you
So I signed that…
Part 3 - Appeal and Backstory (reprise)

Backstory (reprise)

Yours is
The body in the bath
That keeps me overflowing…
Part 2 - Courtroom and Sentencing.
Courtroom.
In which Angela cross examines the accused and his accomplice.
Sentencing.
In which Judgement is passed.
Call the first witness
Make you take the stand
Raise up your right hand…

Part 1 - Hotel & Backstory.
Hotel.

Backstory.
In which we learn about Julia's involvement in the affair.
Lyric -
So Jennifer sits…
En Francais.
English lyric:
I don't know why there is not another girl for me here
Or near here,
But over there are plenty of girls for him
What a shame - what a shame
Every day I watch the men and boys with girls on the beach…
A song for/about Charles Manson.
If you think you've found an answer
Inside a 45
You need another needle and indeed you needed Beatles to realise
Speaking on the record
Backwards just to you
First the curses then perverted verses…
A song about the five stages of grieving, as devised by the (late) Elizabeth Kubler-Ross. Unfortunately knowing these stages does not help you get over them.
You've been managing expectations
Consultations end in tears
Even if you're optimistic…
Bit of a waltz.

That's nice.. It almost makes me want to rush out and get Reaktor. Any chance of a VST version of it someday?

Very Nice! Love your use of the bass as a melodic instrument. Reminds me a bit of some old Renaissance cuts from back in the 70's
Wonderful inventive and very good.
Unusual and cool! Like it!
