My new track ‘Sainte-Chapelle’; written, recorded and produced by myself. This track is a dreamy folk track and I made it using my acoustic guitar and 80s synth keyboard. The French chorus was originally going to be a backing vocal but I quickly realised that it sounded better on its own and so made it the main chorus. As with a lot of my songs, I originally plan on making them very minimal in terms of production but I always end up throwing much more than intended at them. However, I really tried to hold back with this one and purposefully made the production quite simple; just adding a few synths on the final chorus. For those who don’t know, the Sainte-Chapelle is a gothic-style chapel in Paris that was commissioned by Louise IX as his personal place of worship and it got me thinking about the contrast between the grandeur of these medieval cathedrals and the poverty of the surrounding cities. Even with these places of immense beauty, the misery of the people cannot be hidden. Not a political or religious message, I just find these kinds of things interesting. I studied it in university cos I am a huge nerd lol. I hope you enjoy.

Lyrics:
Dive from Heaven, golden waterfalls
Sing the light of Christ on these sacred walls
But what blood was spilled in His holy wars?
I guess beauty don’t conceal our Earthly chores

À la Sainte-Chapelle, je prie le Christ
À la Sainte-Chapelle, je prie le Christ

An amethyst jewel of the ancient city
A guardian sky, stars and saintly kings
But what of Paris and its wicked sins?
I guess beauty don’t conceal what lies within

À la Sainte-Chapelle, je prie le Christ
À la Sainte-Chapelle, je prie le Christ
Ooh

Sainte-Chapelle

That Which Persists

Nel Museo nazionale romano di palazzo Altemps si conserva una testa in marmo che secondo la tradizione rappresenta un’Erinni addormentata. Gli occhi chiusi, i ciuffi dei capelli scarmigliati sulla fronte e la guancia, le labbra appena dischiuse, il volto della Furia – se di una Furia si tratta, sia essa Aletto, Megera o Tisifone – riposa quieto su un cuscino di buio marmo, come se sognasse.
Una furia che invece di gemere e urlare, scuotendo la chioma serpentina, chiude gli occhi e sogna, smentisce se stessa. Eppure proprio e soltanto il sogno o il sonno di una furia assomiglia al pensiero. Il pensiero non è soltanto contemplazione, è innanzitutto furore. Si dà pensiero, si dà contemplazione, solo se prima vi è stato furore, se guardando l’abominio degli umani e del mondo, la mente – diceva Bruno – discesa «ne la parte più inferna… si sente lacerare e sbranare». E solo se nel nostro eroico furore riusciamo a chiudere gli occhi e sognare, si ha vera quiete, si ha visione e teoria. I nostri sogni non sono allora fantasie a occhi aperti, che sappiamo ingannevoli e vane, ma verità a cui, anche se con gli occhi chiusi, non possiamo non credere, perché abbiamo prima visto la vendetta e l’errore. Il pensiero è questo acquietarsi del furore, è un’Erinni che sogna.

In the Grand Scheme

Written in '76 - Recorded in 2014

Matt & I were best friends & 
Sometimes script-writing partners 
He was always writing a Screenplay 
This one was set in Greenwich Village in the '60s  
And he asked me to write an early Dylan 'type' song...
I said... oh that sounds like fun...
Dylan had formed me & informed me
I wrote the song the next day and  
Matt got acting work and 
The young bob dylan script got shelved 
And I was left with an outdated but catchy folk song 
That no one would've heard 
Had I not added it to the now famous 
'Almost Famous' 'Tax Scam' album 
Here's the 1977 recording

And this video Is a 2014 recording  
From the Bad Boy's Room 
My office in the Tower on Pickford Street  
Displaying a #HarveyReid (now Shubb) Partial Capo 
That's the reason my whole head is not in the static shot

CHANGE IT ALL

Chancey may darlin'
It's hard for me to say 
My thoughts are getting crazier 
With each & every day
I'm thinking that it's over and
Wishin' it was not 
You've tangled up my storyline
Twisted up my plot 
I'm blue like a lonely train
Flaggin' down that midnight rain

Tell it to the ocean
Sing it to the breeze
That all of man's troubles
Come to him in threes
First of all there's money
Secondly there's love
Third of all is the one they call
All of the above
I'm lue like a lonely train
Flaggin down that midnight rain
Change it all - Change it all - Change it all 
I don't care for anything I see
Change it all - Change it all - Change it all 
Then change it one more time for me

They'll bury me
Next to Leslie Gore
So she'll always be
The girl next door 
And on a roof in Buffalo
They'll talk so sly
Cos they will know the truth about 
Leslie & I

Change it all - Change it all - Change it all 
I don't care for anything I see
Change it all - Change it all - Change it all 
Then change it one more time for me
