Union of mind, or in us both one soul; Harmony to behold in wedded pair More grateful than harmonious sound to the ear. John Milton - Paradise Lost, Book 08

Guitar and synth drone improv inspired by the “Revelation Space” trilogy by Alastair Reynolds.

This is almost a lullaby, perhaps something between lullaby and love song...

Poor old Reg dumped again........and just before Christmas too....some women have no heart...... Stolen (Lyrics) i feel disjointed i don’t feel like the man i feel like i’ve been stolen from my world i don’ t feel like i can stand up like a man…

Poor old Reg now he can't get to sleep....those bloody neighbours are keeping him awake again........ Everyone is invited to the Ball (Lyrics) I lie in bed its almost midnight i can hear the voices through the walls i can listen to there…

I composed this piece thinking a lot about the 8th symphony of Shostakovich. And I was also thinking of the 5/4 time of Lalo Schifrin's Mission Impossible theme.

This rare song was played twice live by the band in 1993, and a short instrumental demo version was also recorded at their last recording session at Robert Lang studios in February 1994. Most of the lyrics for this cover are from the performance…

Let's see, I put this one together in January of 2011, hence the title. I think I wanted the song to have some coolness, and a bit of drama.
