Don't You Just Hate It...

| No Comments

...when copy you wrote nearly eight years ago is sold onto another content provider and then rebadged as being "new". This article was written ages ago when I worked for IPC but they must have sold some content to Virgin Media. How embarrassing that my name is associated with such a woe-fully out-of-date piece of work. This was written in 2001, people.

Meanwhile, my attention has been drawn to this little video blog that uses one of my tracks as its backing, which is nice.

1234

Here's a bit of throw away audio fluff for you that's going to be on my new album. It's called "1234" and is one of those tracks that was recorded in a very brief period of time. The guitar/bass/drums were recorded in 10 minutes at the beginning of the week and the vocals were put down in 15 minutes last night. The hardest part was coming up with the words.

And here are the words so you can sing along!

1234

Why do you think?
It's called philosophy
Believe in god
What's your theology?
Or are you green
Like your ecology?
1,2,3,4
Make them wait outside the door

If it's got three sides
That's trigonometry
Say it twice
Don't like tautology
It's the way I'm made
My biology
5.6.7.8
Always pays to make them wait

Chorus:

Still working on my biography
All my records are my discography
And the words, my bibliography
1.2.3.4
1.2.3.4

Take my picture, capture photography
Can't read my writing, that's cacography
Want to dance, check my choreography
1.2.3.4
1.2.3.4

Look where you stand
Check your topography
Dig that rock
It's all geology
Don't like my face
My physiognomy
1.2.3.4
It don't matter any more


Predict your future
With astrology
Read the leaves
Practice tasseography
Read between the lines
My steganography
5.6.7.8.
Look who's standing by the gate

Chorus:

Still working on my biography
All my records are my discography
And the words, my bibliography
1.2.3.4
1.2.3.4

Take my picture, capture photography
Can't read my writing, that's cacography
Want to dance, check my choreography
1.2.3.4
1.2.3.4
