I like the sound and the performance but what the hell does it mean? I re-read the lyric like three times. WHAT DOES IT MEAN, MAN?!? YOU HAVE TO TELL ME..... or not. I'll be okay in a beer or two. DAMN IT! I'm on the meds and can't take a drink. *grumbles.

I usually put so much complexity into my music as a way of trying to keep it interesting, so I'm really envious of someone who can deliver the goods with such brilliant simplicity as this. Great stripped down songwriting. Loved it!

Superb. Love the lyrical twists, but that melody is outstanding. Your songs just shine ya weirdo - squeezed out like a stripey toothpaste moustache.

So good.

Hear hear, Johnny. I have the same problem. But it's not that we can't, it's that we don't -- insecurity.

Nice james,your use of words and the way you express them through the echo sometimes make your hairs on your neck stand up.
You are the king of minimilstic recording,you make these songs sound so big the way you record them.
Brawwwwww.

Brilliant stuff this, love the randomness of the lyrics' particularly the reference to Coventry!

The local melody is outstanding, and yes, you could imagine this working in a variety of styles, whether it be minimalistic or throwing the kitchen sink at it.

Simplicity is the strength here!
