Don’t Shake Me

Moments are lost when I have you
Pains are soothed but not rubbed out
Foresight knew no bigger brother
You make me want to shout

But maybe then
Maybe then I’ll just sit back in my seat
Maybe then
Maybe then I’ll just sit back in my seat

Day to day
We fly away
Or lie beneath the golden rays

Twenteen, you're a has been, you're a sunken dream
Let me crash, let me crash
Don’t shake me, don’t shake me

Daydream maker mix one for me
That makes me think I’ve seen everything ever seen
It’ll satisfy me for a while
Might make me want to run a mile

Maybe then
Maybe then I’ll sit back in my seat
'Cause maybe then
Maybe then I’ll just sit back in my seat

Day to day
We fly away
Or lie beneath... (lay me down)
...the golden rays

Twenteen, you're a has been, a sunken dream
Let me crash, let me crash
Don’t shake me, don’t shake me

Crashing burning falling turning churning burning
Crashing burning falling burning

Clogged and charred and bored and drained
Seems such a burden to be enlightened
Foresight knew no bigger brother
I say I’m gonna be
Like no other

Maybe then
Maybe then I’ll just sit back in my seat
Maybe then
Maybe then I’ll just sit back in my seat

Let me crash, let me crash
Don’t shake me, don’t shake me
Let me crash, let me crash
Don’t shake me, don’t shake me
Let me crash, let me crash
Don’t shake me, don’t shake me
Let me crash, let me crash
Don’t shake me, don’t shake me

Don’t shake me, don’t shake me
Don’t shake me, don’t shake me
Don’t shake me, don’t shake me
Don’t shake me, don’t shake me

Rock ‘n’ Roll... Rock ‘n’ Roll...
It’s dead easy!
It’s dead easy!
Rock ‘n’ Roll... Rock ‘n’ Roll...
It’s dead easy!
It’s dead easy!

It’s dead easy!
It’s dead easy!
It’s dead easy!
It’s dead easy!

It’s dead easy! (It’s dead easy)
It’s dead easy! (It’s dead easy)
It’s dead easy! (It’s dead easy)
It’s dead easy! (It’s dead easy)
It’s dead easy! (It’s dead easy)
It’s dead easy! (It’s dead easy)
It’s dead easy! (It’s dead easy)
It’s dead easy! (It’s dead easy)

Over My Head lyrics:
With ridiculous thoughts in my head,
I really believe that I want to be read,
as a speaker for my brain,
and I'm taking on pain as a form of comfort,

Now I've learned that the light has turned off,
I'm taking out the pain and I'm really turned on,
my love has lost her mind,
and she's getting on a plain,
she'll be on Mars,

Chorus:
But now I'm leaning on myself,
I wish it was the way I feel,
still I finally have to say,
that your standing in my way x 2
talking to myself now once again.

With energy in our blood,
we'll run for a place and we'll lose for no one,
still the same and it's the same old thing,
if you'd rather wear a tie than lose your mind,

take your place in a daily race and try,
winning everything of what nobody needs now,
all the time I'm losing mine,
and you're moving, you're losing, you're losing nothing,

chorus x 4

Camden Town Hero lyrics:
You go to the city,
to buy yourself some friends,
to brighten up the lights now,
on the Camden streets again,
and they've fallen for you now,
you've fallen down again,
but you won't have no time for this,

Chorus
because you're gonna be a star,
till you realise what you are.

you still want it,
you still need it,
you still want it,
but you can't have it,

tell me do you really believe,
in the things that make them fall to their knees,
when you are telling all your stories of love and cheer,
but you haven't got the soul to relate the things you fear,
you'll be on top of all the world now,

Chorus:
and you're gonna be a star,
till you realise what you are. x 2

Lyrics:
i'll give you more and more,
then we realise love is all,
time, in time the break will mend,
but it's hard to lose a friend,

knowing we're the same as we are,
wanting us to stay as we are,
knowing it's too late,
to say cause it's too soon,

to give you more and more,
then I realise love is all,
time, time will let me know,
it's hard to let you go,
when everything I see or do,
is beautiful with you,

time, in time the break will mend,
but it's hard to lose a friend,

knowing we're the same as we are,
wanting us to stay as we are,
knowing it's too late,
to say cause it's too soon,



Too Late, Too Soon

Like a Machine Lyrics:

when she walks in to the room,
I hear the words,
but I can't in rhyme,
of all the things that I need to say,
but she's looking straight through me,

cause she knows what I know,
but I know that she don't know,
this ain't the time or place,
and it could hurt me feeling this way,

Chorus:
and as she's walking down to me,
her heart beats like a machine,
and as keeps going down all over me,
my mind feels so unclean,

I wanna let you know again,
I'll walk the mile cause I really like your style,
it's everything you want to see, 
but I can see right through your smile,

cause I know what she knows,
and I know that she don't know,
I'll spend the time you send,
and in the end I'm feeling empty,

Chorus:
and as she's walking down to me,
her heart beats like a machine,
and as she keeps coming down all over me,
my mind feels so unclean,
and as she keeps on walking over me,
my heart beats like a machine,
and as she keeps going down all over me,
her mind feels so unclean,

I hope for silence but I think about you everyday x 2
I hope there's silence but I think about you everyday,

Chorus:
and as she's walking down to me,
her heart beats like a machine,
and as she keeps coming down all over me,
my mind feels so unclean,
and as she keeps on walking over me,
my heart beats like a machine,
and as she keeps going down all over me,
her mind feels so unclean,

I hope for silence but I think about you everyday x 2
I hope there's silence but I think about you everyday,
I hope there's silence but I think about you everyday,

"Downtown"

When you're alone and life is making you lonely
 You can always go downtown
 When you've got worries, all the noise and the hurry
 Seems to help, I know, downtown

 Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city
 Linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty
 How can you lose?
 The lights are much brighter there
 You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares

 So go downtown
 Things will be great when you're downtown
 No finer place for sure, downtown
 Everything's waiting for you

 Don't hang around and let your problems surround you
 There are movie shows downtown
 Maybe you know some little places to go to
 Where they never close downtown

 Just listen to the rhythm of a gentle bossa nova
 You'll be dancing with 'em too before the night is over
 Happy again
 The lights are much brighter there
 You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares

 So go downtown
 Where all the lights are bright, downtown
 Waiting for you tonight, downtown
 You're gonna be alright now, downtown

 Downtown
 Downtown

 And you may find somebody kind to help and understand you
 Someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand to
 Guide them along
 So maybe I'll see you there
 We can forget all our troubles, forget all our cares

 So go downtown
 Things will be great when you're downtown
 Don't wait a minute more, downtown
 Everything is waiting for you, downtown

 Downtown (downtown)
 Downtown (downtown)
 Downtown (downtown)
 Downtown (downtown)

I'm pleased to present a new interpretation of my track "Let It Go", put together by dance music artist/producer Steve Peck - aka "digitalmisfits". Steve is a very talented guy with some fantastic off-the-wall ideas, and I've really enjoyed our on-line collaboration over the last few weeks. 

And when I say "collaboration", I must say that all the hard work has been done by Steve! All I've really done is mail him occasionally with the odd comment like "ooh I like that bit", and "this bit reminds me of Aphex Twin - Cool!".

Be sure to check out his soundcloud page: http://soundcloud.com/stevepeck, and if you haven't heard the original of this track you will find it here: http://soundcloud.com/allthingsbob/let-it-go

Let it go (digitialmisfits remix)

All of the stuff below was written a decade ago so none of it is really relevant any more.
~Bob (2023)

Geek. Miserable so-and-so. Square peg in a round hole with daydreams of living happily ever after by the sea.

After almost a decade as songwriter, bassplayer and singer with the band Betamax, with all it's highs and lows, I found myself suffering a severe case of writers block. All Things Bob is my attempt to find a cure with an ongoing and growing collection of musical experiments. All music, instrumentation, lyrics, recording and production is done by me. My techniques, both from a song-writing and production point of view, are constantly evolving and improving. I started with a four-track iPhone app and an acoustic guitar in March 2012. 

Hopefully, you'll like like what you hear on my page, and enjoy listening to my journey from just a year ago when I was genuinely unsure if I would ever be able to write another song....

Follow me for more Bob type stuff :)

Oh and it should go without saying, but just to be clear - All songs are written, performed and produced by me (unless otherwise stated).

Below are some reviews of my work to date:

"(All Things Bob) is now trying his hand at a solo career and with his new single ‘Home‘, he proves he’s on to a winner.

Having already reached the summit of the MRU charts, this infectiously catchy, up tempo electronically-generated tune has all the makings of a great pop song that could very well take the charts by storm, particularly with summer approaching. With an interesting fusion of musical styles based around a standard guitar/drum/keyboard backing section it is brilliantly enhanced with a deliciously bubblegum pop electronic melody. ‘Home‘ has echoes of recently successful indie-pop acts such as Yeasayer, Cut Copy or Miike Snow, and will no doubt generate similar levels of appeal.

The song’s technological age-inspired lyrics are ironically geeky, adding a bit of tongue-in-cheek charm to proceedings, while the memorable chorus hook together with Bob's David Byrne-esque vocal delivery both add to the like-ability factor. Perfectly timed, perfectly weighted and without an irritating over-reliance on electronic after effects, it is very difficult not to like a song like ‘Home.

This single will almost certainly be a massive hit and a great springboard for his All Things Bob solo-project."
~James Glynn, Music Review Unsigned

"Former Bass player and songwriter of Betamax, All Things Bob offers some catchy melodies that are fused with some enjoyable electronic undertones."
~ Outskirt Noise

"Writing, playing, singing and recording everything himself, his music ranges from classic British guitar-pop to bedroom-electro oddness and grungy guitar rage, mixing it all into an astonishingly accomplished and melodic pure pop whole"
~ Rich Morris, Soundblab.com

"...the New Wave genre is blown wide apart by his streamlined Power-Pop and Punk diversity" 
~ Andy Woodcraft, Mojophenia

"There's no sign of a struggle for material; these tracks sound fully-formed and well though out. Most recent track 'Drone (Happiness Awaits You)' could have graced a Graham Coxon album, in fact many songs here have a touch of Blur about them. The sound is still punky (see 'Turn The Tide' or 'Another Life') but includes a few sonic experiments in the background. As far as highlights go then 'Unselected' stands out, sounding at points like it could be the work of Bob Mould; when he does slow things down for 'Seasons' the standard is the same, proving this is no one-trick pony. With the writers block banished (are we reassured of this on the excellent 'I'm Fine Now'?) we can surely now look forward to more things Bob."

"....split up new wave with punk, and a bit of pop, it would sound like this"
Aaron Phillips, Amazing Radio

"...a really versatile artist"
Dana McKeon, Explosive Unsigned Radio
