I was mean't to go to see Paul Weller tonight in town £35 a ticket, It snowed, i didn't think much about it until i had to try and drive in it. The car was abandoned 2 miles away the concert missed and a cold walk home was needed to get home…
Like a work of Art
Can I take you out? coz you look so nice
To a place where we can satisfy our
needy greedy selfish hearts
Shall we cast our souls in the shadows like a work of art
Would you like a drink at a rip-off price
In a long tall glass…

here at southend-on-sea
where we used to walk with you
on the sand & the mud & the clay
that an ancient science
said we were all made out of
and here at southend-on-sea
my old man
old man river
old father thames
and old father…

fabulous song by the brilliant late robert calvert from my favourite album of his, Captain Lockheed and the Starfighters
I see myself a Hero
While one wings falls away
And the dial…

Memories long in music sleeping,
No more sleeping,
No more dumb:
Delicate phantoms softly creeping
Softly back from the old-world come.
Faintest odours around them straying,
Suddenly straying
In chambers dim;
Whispering silks in order…
A track written by Alex over 10 years ago and yet the lyrics seem more relevant today than they even were back then. Recorded and mixed by other Spencer sibling, Tomas.
~Essence of a musical box with the ballerina spinning around and around~ /as Bethan said/

Calm the night, unstirring,
And the air so clear
Pearls of dew uncurling,
Moonlight rays unfurling
’Cross the glassy mere.
Dulcet waves appeasing…
