i got a delightful surprise in my email last night. a fab wee tune from kenneth. i was drunk as a skunk so waited till i sobered up to add to it, i think kenneth brings the best out in me.
I don't know what i think i know
Go to jail and don't pass go
I don't know anything for a fact
Not everything's white not everything is black
It all looks different from the other side
But no one ever changed their mind
At times we're certain at times we're sure
Our thoughts are clear and our goals are pure
I don't know anything for a fact
Not everything's white not everything is black
I don't know what i think i know
The words are all mixed up and all
Without surprise our lives would just be dull
We need some confusion to make it beautiful
I don't know anything for a fact
Not everything's white not everything is black
not everything's white not everyting is black

Yes, a great song indeed. The composition is quite interesting, and it wasn't easy to find a melody line, since the key...is not white nor black!

What a treat, a new Honker tune.

Ken can do no wrong musically to my ears, he always creates wonderful and interesting arrangements, and these are always perfectly played and mixed, and just love some of the subtle guitar parts that are beautifully placed.

As per usual Jim your vocal arrangement and delivery is perfectly suited to Kens music, and all in all it just adds up to another Honker hit.
