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:
Say no more I was yours 
When your silence came over me

Head to toe dangers own
You're afraid to throw away the key

Tell all your friends cover your losses on my expense 
Tell all your friends while we burn at both ends

Brief collisions in the passing lane
Your turning signals light me up but nothing's changed
Red tap, silver lines, tuff breaks, working overtime
Is there something that you're looking for
It's hard to tell when your ear's against the door
Nice shot, old flame can't stop but nothing lasts forever

Say it matters if it ain't from the heart then it ain't for me
Say it matters your secret is safe when you're close to me
Say it matters I know that I'm touched but you're out of reach
Tell all your friends while we burn at both ends

Brief collisions in the passing lane
Your turning signals light me up but nothing's changed
Red tap, silver line, stuff breaks, working overtime
Is there something that you're looking for
It's hard to tell when your ear's against the door
Red dots, white wine, safe sex, fighting all the time

Brief collisions in the passing lane
Your turning signals light me up but nothing's changed
Red tap, silver line, stuff breaks, working overtime
Is there something that you're looking for
It's hard to tell when your ears against the door
Nice shot, old flame, can't stop but nothing lasts forever

Developing artists & making a cultural impact since 2007.

Thank you to all of my past, present, and future listeners and followers.  

Your support and comments mean so much! 

I will continue this into the future as my third career.

Thanks again for listening and commenting.

Sometimes I wake at night
And watch the rain fall through the street lights
'Cause you're standing still in my mind
Fading out, waving goodbye

And I wonder where you are tonight
If the one you're with was a compromise
As we're walking lines in parallel
That will never meet and it's just as well

Sometimes I'm overcome
By every choice I couldn't outrun
The junctions all disappear
You can't double back to your summer years
