about

A bluesy track that features me singing about the fact that I'm much happier when I'm not singing.

lyrics

Pick any deep conversation
Guess who doesn't belong?
Already claimed dispensation
I think the cat's got my tongue

I've got vocal subsidence
So I'll suffer in silence

Why be a bird
If you cannot take wing?
And why have a voice
if you struggle to sing?

I'm not what you'd call a key player
The least likely team substitute
You'll do better to get a soothsayer
I'm standing here, steadfastly mute

Don't think as you try to persuade me
eventually I will succumb
It's my vocal cords that have betrayed me
I remain quite decisively dumb

Chris Harris Bristol, UK

I'm still trying to get the music I record to sound like the version I can hear in my head. To do this I've ended up playing every instrument I can get my hands on. These days, I'm closer to "That Sound" than I used to be, but the journey continues.
