On My Way Home

The traveling man is back!!

Original idea, music and lyrics by Lee Turner
Vocals By KT Mulholland
Remixed by Joel Crookery
Special thanks to Joel Crookery

Written on the road, The Traveling man chronicles my journeys around the routes of the UK. A song close to home and yet written on the road, it reflects on my own thoughts and personal and experiences of being on the road and missing home!
While playing with this idea of this song and where it was going I decided to send the lyrics to KT Mulholland who felt an instant connection, KT loved it so much he offered to put his own vocal stamp on it, I accepted,  then the song really started to gather some pace.
Later after hearing the song Joel ‘the Crookery’ offered to help us out, adding a little wizardry of his own the song really came to life.

"With of of our technology, a big electric heart
Is forming in the circuits of machines we use for art
You might not think it’s real, but I know that it is true
There’s a big electric heart pumping blood inside of you

Like a spark in our electrons, A big electric heart
slowly understanding all the knowledge it imparts
We don’t have time for riddles, But we know just how it feels
when our big electric heart gets wounded and it’s time to heal

And we don’t want to pull the plug
We only ask that you plug in
All is changing, but love is still the drug
For how we change the space we’re in

There’s something in the sound of  a big electric heart
Thumping on the ground as the music does it’s part
To bring us all together when we feel light years apart
Since the engine of this ship is just a big electric heart

So, if you think that you can love me like a big electric heart
Don’t just cross my wires as a human counterpart
We need to have consistency if dancing’s gonna start
Never stop the beat and break my big electric heart

And we don’t want to pull the plug
We only ask that you plug in
All is changing, but love is still the drug
For how we change the space we’re in"

Big Electric Heart (single mix)

Grand opus version of "Black Rain",  recorded in one take with just a couple of overdubs, this was originally written in 1990 for our band of the time  (also Black Rain)now given the updated Mental Straights treatment. This is a song about how we should be going forward but so often live in the past, without considering the future. Something funny in the tin. Some learnin' up to do , coz mother earth will bite back. Greetings to all, many thanks indeed to all our supporters, very much appreciated thankyou.!!! Captain Mental, Sgt. Milko and Lance Corporal Simms wish you a merry listen. Positive vibes to all in a world that gets slightly madder by the second. X
