LYRICS:
----------------------------
(townie)
People in this town, they've all seen you hangin' around
They don't like it
They're not buyin' what you're sellin', standing' on your box and yellin'
They don't like it
Their sentiment is strong, and they asked you move along
They don't like it. They really don't like it.

(monty)
People in this town, one by one they sneak around
They seem to like it
They come and they go, they never let the neighbors know
That they like it
They may hide it from the rest, but their coins inside my chest say they like it
Oh, I think they like it. They like it.

(townie)
With your shell games and dice, I ain't tellin' you twice
I don't like it
They're down on their knees while you sell them your disease
I don't like it
With your slug milk and wine, they're just fish on your line
I don't like it I really don't like it.

(monty)
I am just a businessman, I make my living where I can
The way I like it
I am sure you understand, I'm just meeting their demand
And I like it
So there's no need to taunt, I just give them what they want and they like it, 
Oh I think they like it, and I like it

(townie)
They say that you're depraved, that you're sick and can't be saved
We don't like it.
And the medicine you sell isn't making them well
We don't like it.
So just get on down the road, if you'd like, I'll help you load
We don't like it. We really don't like it.

(monty)
My patience wearing thin, I take another one on the chin
Because they like it.
So I guess I'll up and go, take my tack and tents in tow
I don't like it
But your virtue is a clown, so I'll go to the next town
Where they like it. I'll go where they like it.
Where they like it.

The Mountebank

If you have driven the country roads you have seen them..faded and old, behind the tall grass and fallen fences...and they all have a story to tell.

Forgotten Places

Dub Experience #2

As part of the "Jamuary" Challenge organised by @starsmightyfine here's our latest magic-themed track, Archon Mode. It refers to an overflowing of arcane energy and power in a fantasy story sense. We used Reason Compact for a lot of the sounds. Art by Masha using free resources by Canva. 

Synth work by Rob Ulysses (@rob-ulysses) and Masha Solo (@masha-solo).

Happy 2024, everyone!

This work was commissioned by The Fires of London with funds from the Arts Council of Great Britain, and was first performed by them, conducted by Peter Maxwell Davies, on 31 January 1979 at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, London. This new revised and corrected version was completed in 2024, and uses Sibelius software with NotePerformer sounds.

It was inspired by 3 Medieval books concerning religious experience: The Cloud of Unknowing; Revelations of Divine Love; Incendium Amoris.
