Got the idea for writing a song to cheer Bay up but i'm not (quite) arrogant enough to do that dead seriously! It's more that it gave me an idea for the lyrics. I thought I'd take the chords robbie williams took from the beatles for the chorus and then realised I'd taken the melody for the first part of the verse from the beatles too! So it's a bit of a beatles pastiche..
This is song no. 10 so I'll do a cover and then get the zip file to ricky, hopefully he's still willing to host it.

That's quality Mark. 
Really like the faster part on the pre chorus.
Very summery and bouncy! All we need now is some summery weather to go with it!

Mark,
As always, quality material with some wicked, wicked hooks, well recorded (for a home set up?).
As far as constructive crirticism goes, I'd need a couple of hours with the album first
I've been keeping an eye on your progress over the last three months - you need a rest!
I'll have (buy if required) a copy of the album, keep us informed of hosting/artwork progress
I like.

Hi Mark.As you may have gathered ,i am a lazy old git and never got around to getting your other album
but downloaded the latest one and it sounds great ,all the songs, but tell me what is track 9,that does'nt
sound like you mate.
I'm having a little play at remastering with it if you don't mind sir,just for fun , and finally,have you had any
interest from any music publishers.

Hi Pete, glad you're enjoying it. Face You Show The World - well I thought I'd write a country and western song, but i was a little dismayed when the lyrics came out so dark, so i sang it in a made up voice and added the other stuff to make it sound like it was recorded in a back woods bar in the mountains somewhere! I got the idea off a hendrix track called My Friend, where he does the same thing.
Please feel free to have a go at remastering, there is already compression/limiting, top end enhancement and a slight widening of the stereo spectrum on most of them. I haven't really contacted any industry with it.

Yeah,I downloaded it a week ago and didn't know where it down loaded
it too but stumbled across it by accident a couple of days ago and haven't
stopped playing it in the car since.I might give it to a music publisher I know
to see what he thinks.

Hi Mark,i played your CD to my work mate today who thought it was very good and phoned his brother
at lunch time who is Daniel P Carter of radio one. He said that he'll give it to Zane or Joe.
I think that my mate and Dan are meeting in a couple of weeks. Would you be o k for me to give him your
downloaded copy or would you rather send me an uncompressed copy or two plus cover and perhaps a little
info about your self.best regards Pete.
07956512136.
