FLOGIC!

This is normally something I’d post in my Want Some Moore blog, as it is a song I wrote to accompany one of my comedy ‘rants’ that I have the privilege of presenting on Bay Radio. Bay Radio is an English language station with a listenership of over 1 million, that broadcasts along the Spanish costas, from Valencia all the way down to Almeria. I feature twice a week, on The Sunset Strip, Friday nights 9.30pm CET, and The Sunday Brunch, around noon CET. Find out how to listen live by clicking on the icon.

Anyway, the theme for this week is feminine logic, ‘flogic’ for short – and please ladies, don’t kill me, because it’s all very tongue in cheek, and a bit of fun. I really enjoyed writing the track. (If you want to hear the rant too, tune into Bay, or check back on my Want some Moore blog next week, when I’ll put it up on a player)

It’s a funky kind of thing, with a nice bass line, and very choppy staccato guitars, and a lovely contrasting guest vocal from Kay Frances, whose album I produced a few months back.  The guitar ‘solo’  such as it is, was a bit of an experiment, removing the low E and tuning Keith Richard style, and giving it a ‘chordy’ sort of vibe. enjoy!

Commons People – The Video!

Following the incredible surge of interest in the song, I felt it only right to make some kind of accompanying video – so here it is, with lots of help from my French partner Miki, otherwise known as “La Ramette” – (not to be confused with rainette – which by remarkable coincidence is also a little frog.)

Any one still needing a free download of the song, leave a comment on this blog and I’ll sort it!

Just for all you fellow Derby fans

Following a great post on the 606 boards with re-worked lyrics for “Common People” by Pulp, I recorded it this afternoon for your delight! for the uninitiated, it’s the tale of a player a team let go for nothing, only for the guy to flourish under their arch-rivals and inflict defeat upon them over, and over, and over again!
Just click on the player to listen!

and here’s the lyrics, courtesy of Addison’s a monster!

He came from Forest with a reputation
for eating pies and never trying too hard
“tub of lard”

One good game out of every seven
Forest fans cried gleefully when he came
And then in four Derbies time they said

We want to live like Commons people
we want to do what ever Commons people do
want to drink like Commons people
want to watch him take games right out of view
what else could i do
I said Ill see what I can do

We took him to the city ground
where Forest fans all said that he’d hide away
on that day
The florest fans said weve got no money
We just laughed and said “your so funny” then we scored
“Cant see any reds smiling”

we said

We want to live like Commons people
we want to do what ever Commons people do
want to drink like Commons people
want to watch him take games right out of view
But they didnt understand
They just cried and left the stands…

Call him Judas all you like
Cos he makes Forest look shi-ite
Should have offered him some more
Cos now its us that see him score
And you’ll never get it right
Cos when your laid in bed at night
watching roaches climb the wall
If you still had Kris he could come and fix it all

You’ll never live like commons people,
you’ll never do what commons people do,
you’ll never cheer like commons people,
we’ll never watch our team slide out of view,
and dance and drink and screw,
because there’s nothing else to do.

He plays on the left he plays on the right
That boy Kris Commons makes forest look shi-ite

Sing along with the Commons people,
sing along and it might just get you through,
laugh along with the Commons people,
laugh along even though they’re laughing at you,
and the stupid things that you do.
Because you think that Trees are cool

Sing along with the Commons people
