Influences: This are some of my many productions... that's what I like doing.. I enjoy performing as well, but seeing a simple set of dodgy chords become a massive arrangement is as good as having oral sex.. It's addictive as well..The rock work had Hendrix jamming with Jack White having The Foo Fighters as support band.. Lenny Kravitz hangging around in the rehearsal room droping dashes of J.D. and coke to the sound.. Somehow my music met The Strokes in the tea room and exchanged some good ideas about the rock scene and how David Bowie ruled in the glam rock era.. By the window we saw Arctic Monkeys and we all knew they had something.. then Hendrix called me back and there we were jamming again in a pair of headphones..Find some Manu Chao and Caetano Veloso in it and win a first class trip to drug-free Dubai with a bag of skunk and a chihuahua to look good..
Sounds Like: not your average breakfeast tea.. I can't cope with you telling me what to do.. I hate hot butter.. You can't help me by walking my way.. I find it stark when you stretch your feet over my legs laying on the sofa.. Can't find a way out of my daily life.. and on top of that you bring my feet down to earth when I start dreaming.. Can you please stop talking about what's right for what's wrong?! I'm tired of people trying to look sexy.. whatever you are, just be it.. (but please do shave your legs before you dress that dress) I'm tired of me and you, think we should have a third opinion.. another pair of leaps.. and another and another.. a kiss is just a kiss.. I miss a different colour of leap-stick on my shirt.. today is gonna rain again
