Children		Parents so often seem to be complaining that their children are under their feet, and that ‘I can't wait for them to grow up so I can get on with my life’, and this song is telling them that they should enjoy it while they can, because i […more]
I'm Sorry		This song was written after ‘we’ invaded Afghanistan in 2001. It's about the way the Western World has invaded countless countries and used propaganda over the years to change people's ways of life. The guitar has a dropped D tun […more]
Instrumentals No 1 & 2		One of my heavier songs. It is actually two seperate songs, but I thought they would segue into one another well. There are actually two different versions of the first part, but unfortunately I messed the settings up, and the handclaps whic […more]
Love in the Rain		A piano piece from way back. I hung a microphone out of the window one evening during a heavy downpour, and used it later to add a bit of accompaniment to a simple piano piece. It's not particularly well played, but I received an e-mail from […more]
Monica		The title of this piece is not of a lady friend (I'm not that interesting), but rather it was my first time recording a harmonica. The harmonica's not very well played (only played the instrument a few times before), but I think it actuall […more]
Say That You Love Me		Just a little blue-rock piece which my dad mainly wrote. There's actually a Dave Clark Five (I think) song which has similar lyrics, which I heard a few years after we recorded the piece; So possibly my dad sub-consciously copied the lyrics. […more]
Things I Should Have Said		This song is about feeling regret for things that you've said or done in your past; or things you wished you had said but didn't. Often I've said things in joke or haste, and have regretted it, thinking that someone's misunderstood me […more]
To the Ground		I was playing around with a basic G-chord riff (cappoed at the 2nd fret; making it an A), and figured out a few interesting chords (or so I think), but didn't really know what to sing about. So I was just playing them whilst watching […more]
Tribally Psychedelic		A very early instrumental piece of mine (probably one of my first serious recordings), which has a sort of tribal feeling to it, hence the name. I actually had another early song I called ‘Mildy Psychedelic’, and thought I'd name this o […more]
What's Right for Me (Pt. II)		Another very early instrumental piece of mine, and is really just here as an example of my early stuff. It was actually a bit of a copy of Free's ‘Over the Green Hills’, from their first album, Tons of Sobs. Li […more]
Words		Written at the end of 2007 from a piece of music I'd had for a few months. The song is about finding it to come up with lyrics. I often sit down and try to think of lyrcs, but find it extremely hard to think of something original, or just somethin […more]
Slowly		This song is about relationships ending, or at least changing, when friends leave to move abroad. I work in a school, and at the end of the summer term of 2007 two very close teacher friends were leaving; one to work in Germany, and the other to go tra […more]
