Thin Immaculate (Best Of 1989-1993)

Peasants

The Wonder Of You

After so many throat ops, my voice is shot, so singing really isn't an option. Welcome, then, to my army of talking robots, who'll help me turn my poems and scribblings into songs.
My tune Brean Down, released under the name UV Index, was a first attempt at this sort of thing but I now have better Text To Speech software.
The track is a mix of orchestral and synth sounds. The text is a piece I wrote a few months ago.

Narration by 'Beatrix' from Speechelo.

Artwork is an interpretation of Virginia Woolf by the Dream app from Wombo Art.

Kid Klumsy - Love Is A Battery Field

Candy Bar Airbase

Bingham / Williams 2009-2020

Twist around the rockets baby
Jitterbug the guns
Get yourself a B52
They look good on ya hon'

Chorus
At Candy Bar Airbase
Give me your name
At Candy Bar Airbase
Flowers in the rain
At Candy Bar Airbase
Gonna make me a name

Head in the clouds, up with the fighters
And crashin' down in burning love
Paintin' the sky like the 4th of July
A Lucky Strike from above

Chorus

Middle 8
And bring me a nurse
I'm cold from explosions
Bring me the drums
And the pipes and the band
Sell me a wound for a JD and Cola
And the Roses Of No-man's Land
And the Roses of No-man's Land

Chorus

Candy Bar Airbase

Another John Bingham lyric from 2009. Recorded immediately after composing the tune, lyric mistakes and poor mix and all. My intention with the final version is to keep the simplicity but add in some flourishes. Let’s see how that goes! :D

“Shocked about my life, good and bad.” JB 2009

Written by John Bingham and Ian Williams 2009 - 2020

If you want a can of worms, keep digging
If you want to learn the words, keep singing

But when you think you’ve got it sussed
You’ll have to turn around because
You’ll be a little bit shocked
At exactly what it was

Can’t buy a soul for love nor money
In Heaven or in Hell
‘Cos Otis Reading owns the rights
And that cat ain’t gonna sell
(As far as I can tell)

If you want Eternal Youth, keep living
Want to know why dolphins laugh, keep swimming

But when...

Can’t buy a soul for love nor money
In Tibet or Nepal
Mahatma Ghandi’s got the rights
And we get sweet F All
(Ain’t life a ball?)

(Note: I go through the chords at the end , which is something I always do so I don’t forget them, but I got one of them wrong! It’s not Am6, it’s Asus2! :D )
