This, clearly, is the beginning of a new musical deal for hard working families and while there are many challenges ahead, hard decisions to be taken and no easy answers you have given us a truly delightful radical platform for a “one music” new paradigm.  Our thoughts are with you at what must be a very contented time.

The question becomes....what should we talk about?

ooh fabulous lyrics, this is very cool, nicely done!!

So well put together, lots of great elements and it works. Nice song.

Let's not talk about technology 
It doesn't interest me at all
Let's have an amnesty on diversity
These words just make my skin crawl
Let's not talk about democracy
We all know that's such a travesty
Don't talk to me about honesty
I don't believe you any more

And you know it's not because
I don't care about your state of mind
But the world's affairs are their affairs, not mine

Don't talk to me

I've had enough of sustainabilty
You underestimate our ability
As for gender fluidity
Well it's not my age or my stupidity
Let's not talk about humility
You think its some kind of commodity
What's left of your morality
Well I saw you leave the sauna at half past three

These words that you say
Don't jump off the page and change the world
Just because you ask them to

Don't talk to me

Let's all forget about agility
Your business jargon makes me ill at ease
A moratorium on humanity
I'd rather hang out with a chimpanzee
Let's put an end to austerity
It's just a word to hide your lack of clarity
Don't talk to me about hypocrisy
I'm not doing this for free

It's time to put an end
To your hollow masquerading 
And turn off your soundbite posturing and parading

Don't talk to me

Don't Talk To Me

I'm putting up new original material on my Spotify channel https://open.spotify.com/artist/2PtcG937rHfQWJwv0Zi4um?si=t1ppLngORgmuqz9qeoDOzw 
Mostly original tracks, a few covers here and there. Thank you for even getting this far. Thoughts, opinions, suggestions all welcome. It's pretty lonely out here toiling over every sound wave and grubby plugin. Any feedback is appreciated and if you've got a track you want me to hear send it over - what comes around goes around etc. A huge shout out to Len Rice for all his production suggestions on this and other tracks of mine - a true expert, check him out https://soundcloud.com/lenrice
One day I hope to get some collaborations going and a far off dream is to re awaken all these tracks in a live environment with a live band and maybe even a live audience. For now the dream keeps me going. Thanks for listening.

I'm trying to use as much real instrumentation as possible: a Taylor and a Norman acoustic guitars, a Fender Strat Roadhouse that goes out of tune if I even look at it, a cheap Vintage mandolin that hurts to play and listen to, an 80 year old zither banjo that screams 'I was never destined for this' and a borrowed Aria Pro II bass that a friend can never be bothered to take home on the bus. Synths are a plasticky Roland FA06 and a fun but dumb Korg minilogue. Throw in some Native Instruments software primarily for smoochy piano and strings, a £15 melodica full of tramp spit, some harps in impossible tunings, and a box of percussion and assorted prehistoric flints (are you really still reading this??). 

All recorded on Logic Pro X on an ancient iMac that is going to explode any minute and take my entire oeuvre with it. And most likely burn the house down.
