A very particular pleasure. Has classic "lines", yet is a unique statement.

A wonderful "rainy day" song. And I love "rainy day" songs.

Every song has a soothing sound and is very wonderful. I like hard music, but I really like healing songs.

Love the instrumentation on this. The string accents intermingle with your vocals perfectly. An impactful bridge as well. Nicely done. Durge

A admire the musical complexity of this piece! So many ideas. Creative stuff!

What does forever mean to you?
She asked
I just didn’t know
I just couldn’t say

Is it a year, a month or a day?
She asked
I just didn’t know
I just couldn’t say

Just when I thought I found the words
Just when I thought I’d found the courage
Just when I thought… 

It all flew away
Up up and 
away
so high

And I’m 
just holding on
And I’m 
just holding on
to you

Step back and try to look inside
There’s nothing to hide
You might like what you find 

Some things last and some things just break
We won’t know which
until it’s too late
Until it’s too late
 
Talk is cheap I want to see results
She said
I just couldn’t think straight
I just couldn’t communicate

The more we do the less we say
I said I think that’s OK
It’s forever and a day

Forever and a Day

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.
