A new one, inspired by the British TV series, "The Detectorists," which I highly recommend if you haven't seen it.  Anyone who has will recognize the lyric here, and the role of the Magpie. 

Oh pretty, pretty Magpie
You nicked all the gold
Oh clever, clever bird
Mischevious and bold

The treasures of the field
Those ancient mysteries
You do not care, you just
Like how they gleam

Oh brilliant, brilliant Magpie
You snatched it all away
The searching must go on now
Another day

The lonely earth is calling
We hear the cries
The Magpie hears them too and
She sails the skies

Oh brilliant, brilliant Magpie
You found all the gold
Your nest is shimmering
Your wealth untold

The Magpie (demo)

Here you will find little acoustic pop songs; melancholy, dreamy-folk things. Sometimes some jangly, fuzzy rock tunes or ambient pieces as well. Work-in-progress demos to finished tracks, informal playlists to official album releases. Enjoy.
