Hellllooo summer! We decided to stop sulking and try our hand at a more upbeat rock song. Alice may as well have donned a top hat, shades and bee-lined towards the nearest cliff for her violin solo! 
It’s a song about that buzz you get when you start writing music with other people, either for the first time - or in my case, the first time in a decade since having kids. It’s inspired by one of my all time favourite artists, the late Mark Lanegan and definitely some Beta Band influence creeps through. Hope you enjoy.

Dance over sadness

I see, feel, hear the rain and thunder, over our world, and it makes me wonder about a few things......

Where did... common sense go?
Where did... the knowledge and realization that we have nowhere to go go? 

Where did... the courage and will to stop the gates of hell from constantly standing ajar go?
Where did... your own will go?

Some of these natural lessons extend into the moral structure of humanity as it must evaluate from time to time if novel ideas work or if the ancient wisdom is better...and so it rains.

Rain
And so it rains
Will it wash away tomorrow’s hopes, 
Leave us stranded in our yesterdays
Clinging to the fraying ropes
Swinging helplessly in vain

And yet it rains
Both the means to life or drowning death
Spilling ‘cross the flooding plains
Sucking out the terminal breath
Forever and again

I stand here naked, cold and blue
Stripped of pride and freedom too
Aspirations drained, subdued
As heaven’s cloudbursts purge me through

And still it rains
Will it cleanse, refresh, renew the truth
Sanitise and ease the pain
Or launder filthy failure’s proof
To try and hide the liar’s stain

And it will rain
While lunatics still yield the whip
Indoctrination’s game remains
The crass politico’s iron grip
Will euthanise our children’s brains

……and so it rains

An Dorchacht Sciamhach ( The Beautiful Dark )

The Emperor has died. As the Royal and flamboyant funeral march goes through the streets of his kingdom his citizens mourning his death.  

I am way outside my comfort zone on this one.

Band-in-a-Box is supplying the drum, background strings and guitar tracks.  I am playing everything else.
