I wrote, recorded and mixed this song up in my loft. It was so fun to write! The lyrics aren't to be taken too seriously.

Such a shame, I thought you were a good one
But your girlfriend called, and now she knows what you've done
I hate to say this, but you really are quite foolish
Take aim and hold then release
I'll never be your side piece

And she says, what we gonna do now?
Well maybe I'll...

Steal your keys and crash your car
Release all the wolves, oh you won't get far
Leave your bike in the pouring rain
Leave it to rust with a broken chain
It won't be hard to get with your best friends
'cos they're already fighting for me in my DM's
Love and lust is not the same
So don't call me up to say you're sorry

(or maybe I'll just tell your mum...everything)

So unique, you gave me and her the same bracelets 
Oh how sweet, but I didn't even like it
Thank you for everything, and for not even giving me the bare minimum
I've got a list of pros and many cons 
but the only pro is your really lovely mum

And you're wondering, what am I going to do now?
Well maybe I'll...

Cut off the strings on your guitar
Deny your ID at every bar
Call your boss, you've been sleeping on the job
You'll find all your clothes on my Depop
Restart your games that you never let me play
Scream all the things that you'd never let me say
Love and lust is not the same, so don't call me up to say your sorry

And here's to your girl, that you never told me about
I'm sorry for her, this is the way that she had to find out
What a web we weave when we set out to deceive 

Steal your keys and crash your car
I'm sorry that it had to go this far
I wish I went with your brother instead
Your double lifes' led to a single bed

Cut off the strings on your guitar
Deny your ID at every bar
Call your boss, you've been sleeping on the job
I sold all your clothes on my Depop
Restart your games, that you'd never let me play
Scream all the things that you'd never let me say
Love and lust is not the same 
So don't call me up to say you're sorry...

Such a Shame

'Lovely' was written and produced by myself up in the loft! It's one of these songs that I wrote at 1am. It was inspired by an innocent random remark which I took out of context. My imagination then got the better of me...

LOVELY

From my instrumental album 'DETRIMENTALS', available on iTunes.

At over twelve minutes long, this track is more than twice as long as any other I've recorded before. Essentially it's a dozen mini-pieces that I decided to string together (hence the track's original name - "Stream Of Consciousness"), and because of the many instruments and tempo changes we treated it like twelve different songs when we were recording it (with names like 'Funky', 'Military', Happy Dream', 'Blusey' etc.)

Needless to say, this track was by far the most complicated and time-consuming to record on the whole album, but it was also the most fun. I think some of the sections have strong enough melodies that they could be expanded into stand-alone songs, so one day I might try to write lyrics for them and make them into an EP (maybe I'll call it "Creeks' or "Tributaries"!)
