Devil's Back For The Summer

A rough one-take recording of Ana Egge’s song Bully Of New York.  I heard this interpretation of the song by Nadia Reid recently and couldn’t get it out of my head. Hope you like my rendition. S x

“Bully Of New York” Ana Egge

It’s so nice to be sitting outside with you on my mind
Late in the day I hitched a ride, with you on my mind, I hitched a ride

In the green park ranger’s truck,
he slowed down as he passed me up
he said Central Park, says it might rain
And I learn another stranger’s name
Late in the day

So how do you like your job I said,
You told me once it’s no good
I lock up the playgrounds, here in the park
I am the bully of New York
Yeah I am the bully of New York

It’s getting dark, so I turn the key
Kids all think I’m being mean
It’s not easy for me

Working nights, I’m never home
My love and I got divorced
Theres a path of light there in the leaves
I am a man on my knees
Yeah, I am a man on my knees

It’s getting dark, so I turn the key
Kids all think I’m being mean
It’s not easy for me

It’s so nice to be sitting outside with you on my mind
Late in the day I hitched a ride with you on my mind
I hitched a ride

The sun was sinking slow and grey
You’re still on my mind late in the day
Late in the day

The title track from Scott McFarnon’s forthcoming EP, CRAZY HEART, will be released before Christmas and the track is sampled on the next video from viral trial bike star Danny MacAskill, who performed a record breaking stunt on the River Thames with help from Microsoft’s personal assistant, Cortana.

Scott’s EP is produced and recorded with producer of the moment Rob Kirwan, who is known for his work with U2, Flood and most recently Hozier’s hit debut album, including the international single TAKE ME TO CHURCH.

Four edits which have had been rinsed from Panorama Bar to Love International over the past 12 months finally see the light of day. Reworked lovingly for the dancefloors.

It's 1969 and your number's up
You've been drafted in for processing and training
For the call of duty, God and Country

When the time for you to serve, knocks at your door
You Put your life on the line for liberty
Pride and honor, home and family
To the left, to the left, to the left-right
To the left, to the left, to the left-right

As kids not long ago, Army Games we'd play
Sticks for rifles made, mudball grenades
Playing make pretend, Cowboys and Indians
Cops and Robbers, Knights in shining armor
Now it's you in far off war

Now you're a soldier, of the highest regard
Of strength and of character, American proud
It's the price we pay, it's the price of freedom
To the left, to the left, to the left-right
To the left, to the left, to the left-right

Repeat chorus ending with
Now it's you in Vietnam
