Nice groove. It is quite hypnotic and enjoyable.

Very cool composition. Lovely melodic. 🤩 🤩!!!

Driving! Fabulous how the different instruments interweave for making up the groove.

It started in Garstang
Heading out for the M55 it's a beautiful motorway
But in the wrong direction 

I first saw Jimi in 75
Stood on the cowling of a seaplane not alive
But more like a saviour

I sat by the lakeside
Checking up on the stove and the gear for a very long holiday
To where the spirit takes me

He landed like a star on Derwentwater
His face was drawn so I offered him a quarter
Of Kendal mint cake

Driving the ghost of a famous 60s rock star
Around and around ’til we've built the energy
Living in the back of a camper van
The lakes are great and we do the best we can
One day we'll make it

We're parked in a lay by
Filling up with some beans on toast and a very nice Chardonnay 
To mark the occasion

In a white silk shirt and skin tight pants
He can't sing a note and he's banned all instruments
You've got to respect it

Driving the ghost of a famous 60s rock star
Around and around ’til we've built the energy
Living in the back of a camper van
The lakes are great and we do the best we can
One day we'll make it

We pin our hopes upon
The comeback show of the chosen one
At the Woodstock of the north
In Deeply Vale with Sandie Shaw and The Doors 

Driving the ghost of a famous 60s rock star
Around and around ’til we've built the energy
Living in the back of a camper van
The lakes are great and we do the best we can
One day we'll make it

But the times have changed
The stars have left?
We keep on chasing happiness none the less
One day we’ll find it

Pretentious Jazz

It always amazes me how a collaboration can change the whole feeling of a song. Such is the case when Cloud artist Devin Locke reached out to me to collaborate.  I sent him a tune I had been working on, but would not necessarily stand on it's own.  What he did with his fine playing, getting inside the basic melody, bringing out the possibilities, reminded me of the playing of Django Reinhardt and helped me hear the song in a whole new light.  For more of Devin's fine playing check out  soundcloud.com/devin-locke.  To hear a wonderful vocal version of this song, check out: @myckael-marcovic/si-django-avait-joue

Mimosa (available at terrywigmore.com with all other WAG tunes)
Wigmore Allen Gibbons 
Ontario has opened up to stage 3. Just about everything is open, now, albeit with masks and safely social distanced.  So, in celebration of beating the Covid curve, at least it seems that we have, we offer this summer tune to celebrate. A return to summer, in the new normal :)

This was a different tune for us. We were striving for a pop sound in the Adult Contemporary area, and this seemed to fit the bill. Keith grabbed some fine lyrics and sang them like one of his canaries. This has a warm, summery sound, to my ears, sweet harmonies, and a lightness of step that makes me simply feel good and tap my toes. I'd say it makes me fee like getting up and dancing, but that is not what I call what I do...sway maybe...and that was good enough for me :)

MIMOSA : Lyrics:
And there she stood, all alone, by the window 
A trick of the light, of the day, just the shadow 
Don’t try apologise for staring at whatever lies within 
Hey Mimosa…Why’d ya have to be so sweet? 
Dark as earth, heavy air, damp as morning dew 
A villa of cream, strawberries growing on the cliffside 
It’s hot as Hell, It’s something else as well, it’s all part of her 

Oh Mimosa…Why’d ya have to be so… Aaaah…Aaaah… 
Let the sunlight shine x4 (Inst) 
Oh my sweet Mimosa…
Oh my sweet Mimosa… 
Oh Mimosa…Why’d ya have to be so sweet x2 

Flash of light, a swirl of green, then she drops her leaves 
She turns around, within a beat, and throws her head back 
She’s on the radio, She’s dancing only flamenco tonight…all night
 
Oh Mimosa…Why’d ya have to be so sweet 
She takes a drink, and rolls her eyes, in a fun way 
She takes a bath, and shakes the rain off, give it back, give it back, it’s my turn 
She feels the sun, because it makes her burn. 

Oh Mimosa…Why’d ya have to be so sweet
Dark as earth, heavy air, damp as morning dew 
A villa of cream, strawberries growing on the cliffside 
It’s hot as Hell, if only looks could tell… if only looks could tell…looks…tell 

Oh Mimosa…Why’d ya have to be so sweet 
Oh Mimosa…Why’d ya have to be so sweet

Out Of The Sky

Rise

The washing machines had a gutsful
It’s raining again on the lawn
There’s muck on the floor and there’s mud in your hair
Can I wipe can I clean any more?

O woman rise up from your ashes
so you don’t thrill to clean any more,
Spin around and at least you’ll get dizzy
and there’s plenty of food on the floor

O I don’t expect joy all the time,
And I never expected true bliss,
But when we fell down and made babies
I didn’t anticipate this!

There’s a strange sense of wild in my head now,
There’s a part of me drifting away
Watch a woman down there in the kitchen
as I unclip one side of me brain

This is one of my older songs that I am still quite fond of..  I have had fun mixing it up with some random sounds from my laundry and goodness knows where else while I was in creative mode!  And yes, that picture IS the machine performing in the piece.. :-))
Written sung made and played by Emma.

Washing Machine Song...  (O I don't expect joy ALL the time!)

Funny Kind of Sad

It has been an absolute pleasure to work on this track with It! Her vocals are great and also add a really cool humour to the piece. I had a good chuckle when writing the lyrics and she absolutely took it all to another level. Check out her page @samantha-hubbs (also she has a different mix of the track there. The Doomsday Party mix). I also swiped the graphic off of her :D

EMPRESS
Him: I know who you've met and where you've been
Most beautiful sight I've ever seen
I cannot keep my eyes off you
Each bit that wiggles, each thing you do

Her: Those boggling eyes just creep me out
They seem to follow me about
X-ray to my underwear
You're always here, you're always there

CHORUS
Both: Sweet something you're my empress
Say something I'm trying to impress / undress

Him: I treasure something that I found
An apple core you threw on the ground
Did you find the flowers I left at your door?
I sent one cock pic but no more

Her: Your feeble attempts at poetry
Do not have any effect on me
That poor excuse you call a face
Has features all in the wrong place

CHORUS

Empress (Marc Freak ft It!)
