'Electromonk Walks A  Long Road' Is a Fusion track and which I am very happy to say is my 500th upload to Soundcloud. Thank you to everyone who has supported me on this 'Long Road' and to all the players who have shared their immense talents with me on this journey. A journey which I am also very happy to say that is far from incomplete.
This version is now a remix and features Georg Boehme on Winds. Georg contacted me and asked if I would like him to add some wind parts to the track. Of course I was instantly in agreement and here now is the amazing outcome of Georg's addional work on the piece. You can find Georg's incredible catalogue here:https://soundcloud.com/georg-boehme

Alan - Composition and arrangement.All Keys and Synths, Drum and Percussion Programming, Bass, Brass and Strings

Inside Out

'good to know'

Babe, my brain keeps storming ways
that you could be lying to me once again.
Why do I feel like such a fool?
Am I merely your tool for use? 
And, if so, how could you be so cruel?
And, what exactly is it that's your fuel
that you possessed to motivate you
to do all the fucked up shit that you do?
Well, it's true. 

Babe, I can't help 
but to be spiraling down
into all of the things that go on around.
I can't just simply ignore the sound.
I feel I can not go pound for pound
with all your bullshit that's laying around.
So, why bother making a sound?
Because, amidst this, maybe I will be found,
and come around. 

Nothing you've done shows that you loved me
after the lies that I have come now to know.
You claimed that no one else was above me
but when I was with my kids or off working, you'd go off and cheat on me, yo. Good to know.

4. Paddy Brings Peace To My World  - my other grandfather was a Wellington pilot in the RAF during World War Two. He sadly died in 1943 so I never met him. His death left a huge impact on my grandmother (who never married again) and my dad. She said he was very loving and thoughtful and felt he would have been thinking about them right to the end. That’s the approach in this song. His nickname for her was Paddy. No idea why!  Mastered by RCD Audio. 
Paddy brings peace to my world 

Crete below us, and in this night sky
Angry fires around us as we fly
They want to stop us but they can’t win
Got to see the ones we love again  

Duralumin beams form a latticed frame
Carry and protect us from flack and shells and flame 
We’re just so frightened, five anxious scared young men
Just want to see our homes again 

And I pray that they’re safe
I did what I could 
Took leave and followed Anderson’s plans
and dug 3 metres into the Surrey soil 
14 pieces of aluminium, a small sump in the floor 
All I could do to protect them from this damn war 

Because 
This crazy world has lost its mind
Angry, cruel, insane!
Paddy brings peace to my world
She soothes and she calms and she’s kind
I keep her here, in my heart and my mind
Paddy brings peace to my world 

A publishers accountant , a chippie and two clerks
and a teacher all together, up here in the dark
We’re doing our duty, the best we can
But we’ve taken too much damage and I doubt we’ll land 

Radio messages, saying we’re on fire and losing height 
We’re trying to put them out, we’re all paralysed with fright
Just trying to make it back

And I’m imagining what’s next for her
She’ll be told at first that we’re missing
Maybe dead, or prisoners of war
But she’ll never give up on me 
That’s why I’m trying to make it back 
to Paddy 

Because 
This crazy world has lost its mind
Angry, cruel, insane!
Paddy brings peace to my world
She soothes and she calms and she’s kind
I keep her here, in my heart and my mind
Paddy brings peace to my world
