This sounds dated, but it's really not that old!
This is the first song I made. I'm attached to it sentimentally! ;D

I wanted to finish it with vocals, as I dislike unfinished things, Jim kindly agreed to do something with it! Thanks to him, it's finished.
A Little Hope Lyrics/ vocals - James Higgins/ Music- Ken

This song is awsome!!  Great energy changes...I like the lyrics
If you swim against the tide long enough, it turns and becomes momentum.........

Oldrottenhead

here are the lyrics

Every black cloud has a silver lining
Well I hope that
That's the case
Coz right now
Dark clouds surround me
And I cant see the light
Well at least I still got some hope in my heart
Enough for both of us

With a little hope
With a little faith in ourselves
With a little luck
We can make it through
With a little hope
With a little faith in ourselves
With a little luck
We can make it through


Though times are hard
And things aint getting easier
And each new day brings another  problem
But you just keep going on
Thats what you do

With a little hope
With a little faith in ourselves
With a little luck
We can make it through
With a little hope
With a little faith in ourselves
With a little luck
We can make it through
We can make it through
We can make it through

Fantastic recording, clean and clear. And again ORH works his magic, pulling up words like a farmer pulls up 'taties.

Tangled Wires

Excellent track, and really like the way the chorus explodes with a wall of bright sounding guitars. That bass line might be relatively simple, but it is an integral part of the song here and love the way it drives the song along perfectly.

Fantastic lyrics and vocal delivery from Jim as always.

Guys...Ken, Jim...can we have a little talk here.....  You guys are too much, its like, wow (WOW), songwriting like this is very special indeed.  Why is it Jim can put the perfect lyrics and singing vocals to your music ken?  Its like you guys were separated at birth. Keep it up, you will have an albums worth of these gems soon and I can collect them all and burn them to a CD and listen to it in my car on the way to work every morning.  And you guys can sell the CD to the world and make enough money to retire and spend all your time on the South of France drinking wine and writing songs.  Damngerit, very excellent song.
