I recently went home for a visit & a family reunion---seeing some cousins for the first time in over 50 years.  What a joy & a thankfulness for family! Back Over the Years is a commemorative to this wonderful reunion.

I am a great admirer of Jonathan's work and when he approached me with this wonderful piece of music asking if I might have a go at lyrics and a vocal I felt really privileged. I wanted to try to do as good a job as I could, but initially I struggled, and then, feeling extremely despondent I took a break from it. On my second attempt I think I started to listen properly to what the music was saying – rather than imposing too much of myself on it – and I  began to get melodies and word patterns that seemed like they were there under the surface already.

This has been an amazing project to work on, and Jonathan has been hugely supportive throughout. I've done my bit for sure, but it would have been nothing without the music.

Last night I dreamed that I could play the guitar
I was on The Titanic trying to sing
My heart will still go on
But I kept getting it wrong and
I couldn't get the high notes but
At least we hadn't hit the iceberg yet and

All the stars above us shone
Like cheap sequins in the sky
Like they'd all just been stuck on
By someone who didn't try

I was studying Kate Winslet
She was standing by a ventilation inlet
In a girly dress despite the cold and
I could see that she was not impressed
By my extraordinary rendition
I said you're looking nice and
I need relationship advice and she replied
Let's take a walk on the starboard side

And the stars above us shone
Like cheap sequins in the sky
Like they'd all just been stuck on
By someone who didn't try
When life's too flattering too sweet
We all like to pretend
But we all know how it ends

We're listing to port and
Kate's politely listening as
I'm listing all the things I should have said to you but
Never did
And realistically I think she's thinking
Less about you and me and
Rather more about the fact that
We've all started sinking yeah
Into the unforgiving sea oh

But the stars above us shone...
