white sun scattered

On some days while driving to work I imagine I let go of the wheel, placing my foot down as far as the accelerator pedal will go and see where life will take me. Sadly there are two outcomes of this; the first is the Bayrische Polizei peeling me off the side of the road smeared in a deep red. The second is as I start to swerve into uncontrollability, I snatch the wheel at the last moment before I hit another car and bring myself back out of it. My heart stopping for a few minutes while all the drivers around me shake their head.

If ever these thoughts creep into my mind, the rest of the day is filled with voyeuristic thoughts of Bob Dylan. Not voyeurism in the sense of stalking and wanting to know everything about him, it’s more wanting to understand why people obsess about him. These are just flights of fancy really, nothing coherent in a day where I shuffle from one moment to another without really thinking too hard. This is all a powerful solace: by means of it one gets through many a bad night.

Hope you are all well my beautiful eggs.

I want absolute beauty. I want this album to sing and fly and be full of reverb and lush layers of melody. I want it to be my beautiful, sumptuous, lovely piece of work."


Imagine a song, that really reached out and touched kids,
And not in a Daily Mail way, innocence corrupted,
But in a way where criticism remained constructive,
And wasn't too politicised and children weren't instructed,
To behave in a way that was unrealistic,
Or made out the way they live was somehow sick and twisted,
But simply pointed out reasons to get it together,
Not shouting "get a job", but just saying,
