There’s a little love
In The Coldest Land
Hiding in the darkness
Longing to be found
And there’s a little hope
In the saddest heart
Hoping to find
And be found
But love is rare
So when you find it
Take the strongest chains
And bind it
Closely to your heart
Where it is safe
When you go in search of love
It’s the Greatest Adventure of them all
Through the darkest night
So alone
Running from the shadows
In the great unknown
There aren’t any charts to follow
Journey on and hope tomorrow
You may see the road that you should take
When you go in search of love
It’s the Greatest Adventure of them all

| Lying awake thinking of you
It helps to see the lonely night time through You’ve been away, seems like a year But one day is too long without you here I know it has to be that you’re away But I will call you up with just one thing to say: Hurry home, hurry home Now I know just what lonely really means Hurry home, hurry home Now I know just how much you mean to me Hurry home Tonight is so still I turn out the light But there won’t be a loving kiss goodnight Then my imagination starts to play What if you decide to stay another dayÖ Hurry home, hurry home Now I know just what lonely really means Hurry home, hurry home Now I know just how much you mean to me Hurry home. I know you’ve got things to do And I don’t want to trouble you But I just can’t stand the lonelinessÖ Hurry home, hurry home Now I know just what lonely really means Hurry home, hurry home Now I know Just how much you mean to me Hurry home Hurry home |

Over the years mine and Mick Whitakers paths have crossed many times. Around 1997-1999 I was gigging in a line-up with him that I thought was really good. The pic to the right shows Mick, Ken and me at the Bierex in Newcastle, one of our regular gigs. For me. this was probably the most enjoyable live performance period of my music career.
Mick Whitaker (Panama Red) Vocals/Percussion
Andy Hawking (Bobby Decent) Keyboards/Vocals
Steve Thompson (Davewudsurvivor) Guitar/Vocals
Ken Goodinson (Harry The Bastard) Drums
Richard Rutherford (Jack Death) Bass
Below is a gig list I found on my PC – I would say this was 1999. Sadly my involvement in this band came to an end when I moved to Teesside. I recall that Ousburn Delta gig outdoors on a sunny Sunday afternoon. I intended recording it but didn’t. I wish I had as it was incredible. It was meant to be me, Mick and Andy performing “unplugged” but Richard and our new drummer Graham (playing brushes) came along too. We were no boy band but as Mick, Andy, and Me, sang an acapella harmony there was a clearly audible sigh from the audience.

 Don’t Look Down One of my legion of fans 🙂 spotted that this features in the "Jobs To Do" section but withoutany sample of the work. I forgot to add this. Fact is I’m unsure if it’s right for Aksana but since it comes from the same burst of creativity I’ll finish it and see how we go. |
Project is stalled a bit at present as Aksana got arrested by 8 armed cops bent on deporting her. When they realised their mistake they said oops ! – you can use the deportation airline ticket for a little holiday instead. (only one way of course) so she’s in Belarus for a little while
songs in this project
Hollow Victory Recording partially laid – needs vocal
What If Rough Demo – needs work on lyrics
Don’t Look Down song complete – needs vocal – upgrade demo
Life As We Know It germ of an idea – work on it
I Will Go Back work on recording and programming
Sleepin Train To Paris song complete – recording started
Lovin Arms song complete – start new recording
Marching Work on lyrics and arrangement
Hollow Victory complete
 Hollow Victory This is now complete as a song with arrangement, lyrics etc. The link above is to a partial backing track that may be about the right key for Oxana or maybe a tone up from that. I’ve sung a version of this but I ain’t uploading it here as it’s a little embarrassing. (NB the graphic now has people in it. |
 Listen to “What If” A quickly thrown together first draft demo of a song I’ve had around for a coupla months now |
 How long does it take to back up a load of data, format a hard drive and re-install windows? As long as it takes to lay this track on another computer:- –MARCHING Bored with the maintenance process I started noodling on an acoustic guitar and then this sort of happened. Yes, there are lyrics and a top line more of which later. Hey! at least it’s not called XP or Bill Gates or something. |
 Sleepin Train To Paris – Just a short clip to evaluate the key. I can see several adjustments to make to this before version 2 is uploaded |
