This is a Christmas song.  

For the Young and the Old 
(Lyrics)

The interwoven vains that wear their crooked hats
Drop white clouds when their arms are shaken

An army of men decorated by nature
Displaying the imagery of a childhood tailor

Dying dressed in finery, head to toe in jewellery
Of money that melts and colours so bold
Inspiring lights, Spiralling lights, for the young and the old

Hibernate with jokes and lopsided paper crowns
A centrepiece stuffed before jovial crowds

Dying dressed in finery, head to toe in jewellery
Of money that melts and colours so bold
Spiralling lights, for the young and the old

Of tiny feet that press on creaks, and half the remnants of eaten treats,
Attire all skewed as they stand and gasp 
No sense of self, all rushed and rash

Paper tidal waves spray, the glistened ribbons and bows
A child's heart lights up it's eyes, as the beats strike gold

Beautiful embrace, all smiles and shivers, enjoy the winters dance, and join together,
For the young, and, for, the old

"l'excellente "UFO", une chanson vraiment contrastée par la douceur des violons et la puissance rock de la guitare électrique, insaisissable!

A review of 'UFO' by Rock 'N' Roll in my Soul Music Blog:

"His track ‘UFO’ is a seesaw teetering from brunt guitar riffs with unforgiving bass and smashing drums, to gentle strums. The introduction is beautiful. The layering produces a stunningly calm mood with caressing guitars that are somewhat reminiscent of Pink Floyd’s ‘Marooned’.

It makes the switch to the harsher state and again goes back and forth, before bringing the bridge that made me want to tell you readers about him. The intensity of this section, accompanied by the words, “Come on down, without a sound,” is impossible to understand without listening to it. So here it is!

He possesses a diversity that stirs within you a million different feelings: sorrow, anguish, love, yearning…

And then there is the guitar solo with Led Zeppelin-tinged licks that provide an eclectic development of sound throughout the entire song."

A review of 'UFO' by The FML Blog:

"UFO is deceptively slow, it lulls you into a sense of security before kicking you into a musical riot, not entirely against your will though.

Orchestral, verging on classical before being shattered by the echoing of gritty, grungy guitars. Wright’s voice crying out over the beautiful composed musical arrangement that flits between genres so effortlessly. Long and soothing and with that kick that keeps you listening to the very last chord"

A review of 'UFO' by The Vinegar Tits Blog:

"UFO is an epic track, full of light and shade, pressure and release. The tender, densely textured opening movement of guitar and strings welcomes us warmly before the mood switches with an intense barrage of jagged guitar and drums – like meteors crashing into frozen seas – and a vocal performance both delicate and raw. The interplay between these temperaments gives the song a tense atmosphere, which builds to a peak of strident drums, rolling bass and a guitar solo that probes the frets at first before unleashing a brief frenzy of assured riffing. The final movement echoes the opening, offering us comfort and space to breathe, and encourages us to go back to the start and press play again."

A review of 'UFO' on Echoes and Dust by Gilbert Potts:

"The song builds gently from slow arpeggios and synth strings that calm and sooth before launching into a raw and tense chorus with a great air of angst. Rather than rely on one element to create that contrast and shift, Wright blends variations in pace, instrumentation, vocals, volume and production that work together to create the light and shade.
There is plenty of passion and character to the slightly nasally and warbling vocals – more that you often find at the higher end on male singers. Dare I say a bit Jeff Buckley a couple of tones lower.
It's a long song for this style but avoids feeling like it's going over the same old ground time and time again with enough surprises and variation thrown in."

Thanks to Stuart Carroll  for help with the string arrangements. 

There was an acoustic version worked on at the same time as this in 2007/08.  This version made the album.  This song is about the night I met my wife.  It is about the haphazard nature of the night, the characters I met, the way me and my wife met, and how the night ended.  This song is a good summary of what the album is about.  The title 'Halo Effect' had been reserved for another song, but I eventually used it on this song.  This song is also part of 'Opus. 1' (2011) as an acoustic version.

A review of 'Halo Effect' by Rock 'N' Roll in my Soul Music Blog:

"With light guitar sounds, a soft beat, and power vocals, he creates an atmospheric tune that is emphasized by the drastic quickening of the drums. If this was the only song he put out, it would be enough to show that he’s a songwriter with a passion for words and a musician with a passion for melody."

A review of 'Halo Effect' by Ralph's Music Blog:

"Wullae Wright is capturing the same raw intensity of vocals that an early Robert Plant did.  Not only that his almost psychadelic guitar on the track also has the same haunting tones found on early Zep tracks.  An old rock soul in a young body."
