Me and Mrs Rottenhead nearly parted our ways, but we pulled through stronger than ever. Phew!
When you pull at that thread
And watch the world unfurl
Around you
Please don’t pick at that scab
Leave it well alone
Or it will never mend…
My dad, Jimmy Higgins (17.08.1937 - 05.10.1977) would have been 80 years old today, sadly he passed away at the age of 41. He was quite a guy and fitted more into his short life than i could probably fit in if i live to be 200 years old.

And those yet still to come

Have acted out these scenes

I hope that life’s been treating you well
And what are you up to these days
Are you with somebody else

When I was in the 7th grade, I used to skip school on Wednesday mornings so that I could watch the Nat King Cole show on PBS. I was mesmerized by his music. I could feel his vocal influence as I wrote…

"Círculo":
Subo peldaños queriendo escapar
De este cÃírculo falso:
Nacer, crecer, entender y dejar...
Luego muerte verás.
Te han enseñado a nunca cuestionar
Te ocultaron caminos.

With little chance of escape
And all you bar-stool visionaries

Wanna seat on a slow boat heading
South down a stream that seems to never end

This song is not for everyone but I like it because its a live recording with a single instrument using infinity delay FX. (I turned on the loop delay at :09 after the guitar was flat on the floor.)
All the sounds are made with an acoustic bass…
i used to drink on hope street and had sparks behind my eyes i feel as if this was written for me.
i have quietened down since.
those vox are fabulous.

this has taken on a greater meaning with the news about scottish author iain banks. my thoughts are with him and his family.
Braw, great tune!
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.
