FINALLY got to see this one. It really is a magical album. So glad I got to see them play it at Bottom of the Hill some years back. Mesmerizing to watch Gedge’s right hand 👋🏻
(Fyi for those in the states, you can now buy/rent it on vimeo!)

I poured my heart out
I told you to keep this to yourself
I know that it's all my fault
I know that it's all my fault
The best and worst years of my life
Fell into these lines
The best and worst days of my life
Just fit into these lines
I said it and I meant it
All we have is time
So hold on to my number
And please pick up the phone
I miss the sound of all your voices
And even when I'm gone
Leave the light on for me
And I won't ever let you be
Something left behind
So please pick up this time
All we really have is time
So hold on to my number
And please pick up the phone
I miss the sound of all your voices
And even when I'm gone
Leave the light on for me
And I won't ever let you be
Something left behind
(Something left behind)
'Cause every second that you give
Is every life that you could have lived
And all those people you could have have been
You have to let them be
Something left behind
So hold on to my number
And please pick up the phone
I miss the sound of all your voices
And even when I'm gone
I've written songs about growing old
I wrote some along the road
And I write them all for my friends
So wherever I may go
I hope that you can hear me (I hope I can sing them loud)
I hope that you can hear me (They can hear me back home)
I hope that you can hear me (I said it and I meant it)
I hope that you can hear me (Never feel alone)
I'm listening to that "Something Left Behind" Transit record in Aaron's room right now. I think I overlooked this record greatly for reasons that are just not clear to me right now. Aaron keeps mocking Joe Boynton's voice, it was funny at first. Indoor Voices is getting me touching me in a profound way at the moment. There is so much clarity (musically and lyrically) on this record, it is so pleasing to my ears right now.
It feels good to be in Reading with one of my closest friends. The journey from Northampton was shorter than how I remembered it during my last visit. I am happy to say that I am in luxury compared to my last visit when I unfortunately had to endure a constant freezing room in his hall of residence.
My voice is still scratchy from last night, I remember dancing to Bound 2 with some skater guys in Eviscera. I also remember hearing "You're lucky to be black" and "Is that 'tache for Movember?" I still don't understand the big deal around my moustache. I have said this again just now to Aaron as he is sitting on his bed watching Kenan and Kel. It's funny how you can grow older but still find a remnant of your younger self in your old friends. It is quite a surreal delight sometimes, not regressive in anyway but more of a reminder of foundation as an individual.
I don't have any expectations for tonight other than hopefully hearing Craig David at the SU and as a result pogoing furiously on the dancefloor. I still think it's odd how I am not conscious of my dancing as I was before. There something about hearing people compliment you on somethign that makes you more conscious of ho you do it in the future.
I was also talking to Steven U (who is listed as my Son on Facebook) on facebook this morning who kindly sent me this on facebook after stumbling upon this revelation on his Itunes page
On this Itunes window An All For Amends song "I've Had My Fair Share of Imaginary Enemies" his at the top of his most played. Surreal, no one has ever really expressed admiration for All For Amends like this before, it has definitely made my day. On top of that he said some sweet words about my lyrics on some new All For Amends songs (which will surface eventually) which couldn't have made me happier. I definitely have more gratitude towards him.
