[Flash Harry]

Here's the lyrics.

I get up at seven
I shower and I dress,
Put on a wool suit,
cotton shirt and silk tie.

I get in my car
And I drive
I have the radio on
And get the day's news:

Fifteen dead
in a riot over bread

And it makes me think
that a comfortable,
white, middle class,
middle aged guy
has no right to sing the blues.

Thanks to everyone who posted the encouraging comments.

hope this doesn't mean you are going to pursue a solo career and forsake me and tim lol.

No chance mate, these are few and far between. I can't do what you and Tim are capable of. This may be the last - ever. I just don 't know.

reminiscent of the Blue Nile and  Paul Buchanan

I am a big fan of the Blue Nile. Thanks mate.

Harry this is simply beautiful. It is slow, pure, well played, and wonderful, man. Love it.

Nicely put. Thanks for sharing.

I finally got a chance to listen to this track...

Awesome - simple song and arrangment, some very powerful lyrics, perfect vocal tone for the theme.

Well done.
