A four chord loop that's been sitting nearly finished on my hard drive for a few years. If I wasn't ill I'd probably not release it like this, but instead combine it with something else, but then again there's nothing wrong with 4 chord loops

Sodja

A song I was inspired to write after seeing the destruction of Sumska Street in the cultural heart of Kharkiv, Ukraine, and the abuse Putin and his army are giving the Ukrainian people. Featuring my beautiful spouse @cartoonkate. We walked down Sumska St and then went on for drinks by Lopansky Mist in May 2017. Fyi no one got hit with a fist when we went for those drinks.

Chorus:
When will we walk down Sumska Street again?
When will the sun shine down on Sumska Street?
La la la la la ,la la la la la 
La la la la la, la la la la la


I used to love you
But now you are so cruel
Holding onto me
Is something so uncool
Remember the Opera and Ballet
When you're shouting, I can't believe a word you say

Chorus

You never accepted
I wanted to be free
My independence
Is something you can't see
If you love someone you've got to let them go
Or unhappiness is all that we will know

Chorus

Do you remember
When you hit me with your fist?
Going for drinks
Down by Lopansky Mist
The theatre it has got to stop
Everything cos of you I've shut up shop 

Chorus

Sumska Street Acapella

Lately

Track I've done while ill with Lyme Disease (Do you see what I've done here?) Reckon it starts a bit early\mid 90s and then...

Lime

A reaction to the US election, but also a critique of a thread that runs thru anarcho-punk & hippy politics. A short song, well more of a rant but a bit different from what I normally do.

Revolution In The Head

A fairly gentle one rather than a banger. With vocal samples from Monad Moon

Puny

Menacing strings, an immense reecey FM bass and real sampled starlings on the Somerset Levels as they do the murmuration.

The birds are flying south today,
They're gathered here to go on their way,
They feel the time has come to flee,
They find the urge to go be free,
Squawks beneath the darkening skies,
Groups of them make desperate cries,
A heavy wind leaves the trees leafless
And harsh wintertime is ruthless
There's not much time to skit about,
No bird wants to be left out,

But still I'm going to stay standing,
The season might be ending,
But still I'm going to stay standing,
I see fences that need mending,
So still I'll stay standing

The birds are flying south today
Who knows which ones will make their way,
Back here across the foreign seas,
Back home to the desolate trees,
Migration is nature's way,
No matter what the people say,
And I feel the chill now like these birds,
And fight to put it into words,
The coming storm won't be pretty,
In countryside or city,

The Birds Are Flying

It's late at night at the End of the World Cafe, and I'm not sure if the singer is drunk or stoned
