Any artist is welcome to send us a track via freshonthenet.co.uk anytime between Monday lunchtime and Thursday morning - and all our moderators, including Tom Robinson, will listen to every track. This is our full inbox from the week beginning Mon 27 September: from midday on Friday you'll be able to hear our shortlist and pick your favourites on this week's Listening Post which will appear at freshonthenet.co.uk/batch296

If a track you submitted does not appear in this list, it’s probably because another of your tracks appeared in our Fresh Faves or on the BBC Music Introducing Mixtape during the last three months — we ask that artists featured on either wait three months before resubmitting to give others a chance. You will be able to resubmit the track in future.

THE COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF - How Cheap Will You Sell Your Soul?

"Birmingham" (Lyrics)
Oh my God.
They called no less than six times while my phone was off.
I saw your knees go weak while you were already lost in Birmingham.
And you could barely speak, your heart was so far in your throat and,
I could not cry ‘cause we were never very close.
I cursed my eyes for being calloused and composed.

Scarce a word was spoken while we drove our car to Birmingham
For greetings shared with broken hearts and faces buried in their hands.
I could not cry ‘cause we were never very close.
I cursed my eyes for being calloused and composed.

Standing in a nervous circle ‘round the bed we tried to
Hold back while you raised her hand to feel the life inside you.
And then I cried ‘cause we were never very close,
And cursed my eyes while she was lying comatose.

I cursed myself for waiting ‘til it came down to this moment,
And I cried my eyes out driving home from Birmingham.
