Shattergone

With Shattergone, I went a bit Prog Rock. I was never really a Prog Rock fan - but I like the fusion of orchestra and rock band, and the slightly jazzy avant-garde feel. I can't listen to it for too long, or my ears start to bleed - but I find it weirdly relaxing.

Best Before - single 26.08.2025

  As I approach 60, I feel that my body has run it's course. With modern medicine, I could last another 20 or 30 years ... maybe. However, my body is severely compromised, and I do think about the wonder of sitting in an armchair, covered in a blanket, listening to the radio. [Verse 1] Well, I used to be fresh on the market, Crisp and shiny, bright on the shelf. But now my label’s curling at the edges, And I’m starting to doubt myself. [Pre-Chorus] The world keeps moving faster, But I’m slowing down each day. So stick me in a chair by the wireless, Let the violins take me away. [Chorus] I’m approaching my “best before” date, But I’ll age like a fine old wine.

Just a teapot steaming on the table, And a soft light warming my face. [Pre-Chorus] The symphonies know my secrets, The cellos can soften the pain. Retirement’s not an en...

 I like being English. I'm lucky to be English (rather than, say Palestinian or an Afghan). I am happy to celebrate English culture - fish and chips, queueing, saying I'm sorry, understatement. Some English culture is crap - football violence, the class system, snobishness, fish rissoles. I am not willing to support the use of the St George's flag to express nationalism in a way that clearly smells of racism. You can be a patriot without being a racist. You can fly the flag without being a dick. [Verse 1] They’re shouting on the corner, waving flags in the air Screaming about strangers who were never even there But the man in the mansion is laughing with his mates While the people on the pavement swallow all the hate [Chorus] Look the other way, don’t look at the thief He’s selling off your future, he’s peddling your grief He’s counting dirty money while he points to the door And you blame the asylum seeker sleeping on the floor [Verse 2] The papers print the headlines, s...
