This really reminds me of Dodgy in their hey day. Nice melodies and vibe about it x x x Thanks for sharing with the group!

This is really great! I want to hear some more like this. Great stuff.

I really like your the way you sing. Every word seems important to you. Lovely!

brilliant track nigel told ya ill be back :-)

great to hear a new one Nigel, seems like it's been awhile...drew me right in.

love how you sing "why" right here.  the "oh why" section is really nice.

for some reason your singing reminded me of david bowie in space oddity (love that song to death) so i had to give that song another listen just now after a long hiatus.  great singing though

awesome work man.  great lyrics, great singing, great.  i was feeling it in this one.  when i really like music i replay certain sections a bazillion times and you caused me to do that ;-p.

Strangely Dry
 
Did I ever know, or did I just forget?
Clinging to my memory like a lifeboat from a wreck
Did I shed a tear or was something in my eye
Running down my face into a mouth that’s strangely dry
 
Strangely dry yet somehow I am swallowing my pride
I am laughing in the faces of the things that passed me by
I am floating six feet from the ground
I wonder if they know what I have found
The answer to the question…
 
Why are we still here? Why did we forget?
Staring down both barrels of the gun of our regrets
I cannot make a sound, I dare not even try
I open up my mouth to speak but it is strangely dry
 
Strangely dry yet somehow I am swallowing my pride
I am laughing in the faces of the things that passed me by
I am floating six feet from the ground
I wonder if they know what I have found
The answer to the question…
 
Why, oh why, oh why, oh why
Oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why
 
Strangely dry yet somehow I am swallowing my pride
I am laughing in the faces of the things that passed me by
I am floating six feet from the ground
I’m hoping that I’m never coming down
I’m hoping that I’m never coming down
I’m hoping that I’m never coming down
 
I’m standing in the crowd, but they don’t understand
The power to forgive and to forget is in our hands
And the anaesthetic rain that’s falling from your sky
Is running down my face into a mouth that’s strangely dry
 
Strangely dry yet somehow I am swallowing my pride
I am laughing in the faces of the things that passed me by
I am floating six feet from the ground
I wonder if they know what I have found
I wonder if they know what I have found
I wonder if they know what I have found
