Episode 90-Don't Give Him Your Number


 
Hello Listeners. I've been a little ill, still am, I wrote this song in my bed after reading a bit of "Not That Kind of Girl", by Lena Dunham, very honest life advice, also funny, excellent book. The song is about jerk people with physical demands and my loathing of them. It's possibly a little blunt and slightly dark under it's ukulele skin because I've been sick, and that makes me grumpy. Hope it's a good listen anyways, and thanks for your time as always.

Episode 89-Face Full Of Fist


 
Hello Listeners. This weeks tune is a banjo one about a salesman being fake friendly to an emotionally unstable person, written from that persons perspective, and maybe it's about fake friendliness all over? Hope you like it anyways, and thanks for listening.

Episode 88-The Damned & The Done


 
Hello listeners, I've been talking with some folks who are recently separated from long term partners, and not so recently, but its the early days stuff that sort of stuck with me from these chats so I wrote a song about how that felt for me, a while back. It's not a fun place, a little volatile, kinda crazy, definitely not happy, very glad it's behind me. Anyways, as always, it's also kinda abstract and probably will be about any number of other things for other people. Hope you like it and thanks for your time.

Episode 87-Bruisers


 
Hello listeners. This weeks tune is about drinking, about how for me it kind of cleared out some brain cobwebs and gave me a chance to sort of understand life a little better, I've only ever gotten really super vomit drunk maybe twice in my life, and I don't recommend it, and I don't drink so much these days but I read this the other day:

(,from a Blog by Jess Windram, which I recommend, some good reading is to be had there),
and it reminded me of how drinking effected me, the journey from no alcohol whatsoever, to a little, to way too much, then back to a little again. It's kinda abstract. I have a cold too so my voice is way off. But it is what it is. Hope you enjoy it, and thanks for listening.
