In case you’re wondering why the track is called what it is then I cannot tell a lie. it’s all Gordon’s fault.  I was having an email conversation with him about life, the universe and everything when, for no reason I could easily glean at the time, he said “I’ve got to go and walk to Asda in the fog". I wasn’t sure if he meant he could only walk to Asda if there was fog or that he just needed a walk in the fog and Asda was as welcoming a place to go as anywhere else or, more simply, that he had to get some groceries and Asda was the nearest and most convenient place to go in such inclement weather. Whatever the reason, my immediate thought was “What a great title for a song…”.

There’s certainly no shortage of songs about Covid-19 but I just couldn’t resist the temptation Gord had inadvertently sent my way to vent some of my Covid frustrations.  If you chance read the lyrics and aren’t from the UK, I should explain that all of the words in capital letters are the names of UK supermarket chain stores.  You may also be wondering why I mentioned the Royal Yacht so, for those of you that hadn’t heard, our wonderful government, in the midst of the pandemic and the financial constraints it was placing on the country, announced that it was commissioning the building of a new one at a cost of somewhere around 200 million pounds.  Isn’t it good to know they have their fingers firmly on the pulse of public spending at times like these?

For some time now, Gal and myself have wanted to work on a track with both Gord and Arkestar and for many reasons, this particular song seemed to lend itself really well to the idea.  We’d therefore both like to thank them for lending their unrelentingly brilliant skills and commitment to the entire project and for making it such a complete pleasure to work on.  We certainly had more fun than we’d a right to. Thanks again for listening. (Terry Reeves)

Walking to ASDA in the fog
Every step with a loud paradiddle 
Avoid a variant of thickening smog
Strings of ministers in cabinet fiddle

Who got it?

Running to TESCO in falling snow
Remaining safe, wash all our hands
Vaccination waits for protection show
Sharp scratch but no summer sands

She got it
He got it

Skate to SAINSBURY’S on slippery ice
Peering to find the unforgiven Lord
Discuss the increasing price of rice
Politicians cut with ceremonial sword

Who needs it?

One, two cold runnings to MORRISON’S way
Sliding monobob a lonely lockdown 
Cresta pandemic flat on skeleton tray
Oxford to Moderna safety COVID town

Middle

Adventurous trip to the ICELAND’S
Climbing frozen peaks in cabinet change
Arctic conditions finding blue diamonds
Words of memoirs on only one page

Who reads it?

Freezer in ALDI like a 63 mission
Hunting food to last past pandemic 
People buy rolls with zero nutrition 
Persuasion ignored by Academics 

Who wants it?
They missed it

Running to LIDL in the ice-kissed smog
Chance of surviving a Third World War
Is there time to buy a new Royal Yacht?
I don’t think so!

You Raise Me Up (with video)

Some people buy a zoo, I bought a drone. Basic soundtrack I created for my maiden flight on Youtube. This has been a bit of a break from my music as I learn how not to crash. https://youtu.be/XT-FcpgeX_o

This Drone Up

You know how it goes...... it's very late but you start scribbling in your spotty book and suddenly you've got three verses and so you pick up the guitar and just very quietly, so as not to set off next door's ruddy cat, sing them through into GarageBand with a muted strum, so you won't forget it in the morning, at which point you can add the planned bagpipes and washboard.

Well I skipped the last bit and here's the result - my first two chord song :)

Might do one of them symphony things next.

Peace of Mind

I’ve witnessed the setting of stars on the ocean.
Peered into flowers with wonderment stilled.
Gasped at the leaves of autumn’s commotion
Seen hope on the rocks, wild dreams fulfilled.
Seen ears of silence through the eyes of the blind
Never did find, my own piece of mind.

I’ve whispered to seashells and heard their replies
Rested neath oak, a thousand years old
Sung with the church bells, tears in my eyes
Seen spirits broken and mysteries unfold.
From the raptures of newborn, to the ravages of time
Never did find, my own piece of mind.

They tell me of colours that no rainbow shows
They speak of the mountains suspended from clouds
Whose rivers’ expire where life’s estuary flows
By the funeral pyre ‘neath humanity’s shroud.
I’ve screamed to the cosmos, my prayers were declined
Never did find, my own piece of mind.

ONE MONTH OLD (Lyrics) song for baby Maxwell

"The Revolution of Consciousness" indicates the evolutionary transformation of the human being that awaits each of us, in order not to remain prisoners of the destructive forces that dominate the world today. It is a necessary task for the advent of a New Humanity, rooted in the strength of the Soul. New Humanity capable of generating the society outlined by our Constitution, based on mutual love rather than on the strong competition of the current neoliberal model. 
"Mauro Scardovelli"  
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“La Rivoluzione della Coscienza” indica la trasformazione evolutiva dell’essere umano che aspetta ciascuno di noi, per non rimanere prigionieri delle forze distruttive che oggi dominano il mondo. È un compito necessario per l’avvento di una Nuova Umanità, radicata nella forza dell’Anima.Nuova Umanità in grado di generare la società delineata dalla nostra Costituzione, fondata sull’amore reciproco anziché sulla forte competizione dell’attuale modello neoliberista.
"Mauro Scardovelli"

Lagniappe is a small gift given to a customer by a merchant at the time of a purchase (such as a 13th doughnut when buying a dozen), or more broadly, "something given or obtained gratuitously or by way of good measure."
Or as I say "a little something special".
