Albert Hammond Jr’s fourth solo album Francis Trouble explores a deeply personal topic – the stillborn death of his twin brother, Francis, and the lingering effects that event has had in his life and music.
In November of 1979, Hammond Jr’s mother, Claudia, miscarried. Although they rushed to the hospital, Claudia and Albert Hammond Sr. were told that the baby was far too premature to live. Albert continued to grow inside of his mother undetected until she was nearly six months pregnant.

Lyrics:
Stop and go
Do I have a share in this
It's as if I don't exist
I look up to see the stars upon my face

I don't know the songs you like
Or the space to make it right
It is life in slo-mo
Stop and go

I've been lying in this room
Summer breeze will take me soon
It's been time since madeline
Let me forget

Your ignorant life it cuts like a knife
While tending two shops you adore
There's nothing inside
Get dressed for the ride
A romance, a joke and a war

Look how easy we got fooled how cheap they bought and sold us rules
Wish we could've become friends without smoking their cigarettes

The stars collide and formed
You and I we made a plan but had no time
Most of the girls made up their minds
Somehow the boys knew they just had to wait in line

I've been lying in this room
Summer breeze will take me soon
It's been time since madeline
Let me forget

Your ignorant life it cuts like a knife
While tending two shops you adore there's nothing inside
Get dressed for the ride
A romance, a joke and a war

Look how easy we got fooled how cheap they bought and sold us rules
Wish we could've become friends without smoking their cigarettes

Your ignorant life it cuts like a knife
While tending two shops you adore there's nothing inside
Get dressed for the ride
A romance, a joke and a war 
The stars collide
The stars collide
and formed you and I

Francis Trouble
