A long unplayed song, brought back into the arena. The words hold up still. I guess they apply to every ended relationship, either in or out of context. It evolved into a late-night jam-ramble, with a slightly recalibrated run on Bob Dylan's classic 'Times Changin''.

This is from 'Bitter Realities', the rough-mix CD of my 1997 'protest/social commentary' album. I am currently putting together a book of the lyrics, and thought I would upload some videos of the songs at the same time. This is already uploaded once, but that was in a slight remix, with an external vocal mic pointed at one speaker, to add some gain. Here it is just how it comes out of the speakers, albeit this is not the finished version, but a rough-mix (not that on the acoustic-and-vocal tracks that makes much difference). And, due to the recording method - CD, through amp, into non-DI camera, the recordning is compressed. Unfortunately, my circumstances leave me no other method.

Well, there's a pairing. One recent song of raging against injustice, one old song about offering the hand of friendship. It's always nice to have a back catalogue filled with songs like the latter. Not so nice to live through things that make you write songs like the former... Time stamps are thus, for those wishing to avoid the uncomfortable listening one: 00:00 intro 01:11 'Who Do You Think You Are' 06:26 working out what to play next 08:18 'Call Me If You're Lost' 14:48 'Call Me If You're Lost' (verse 2 only, how it used to be sung).

Hello, thank you for viewing this video. This is a song I only rediscovered yesterday, after almost 39 years, in one of the "Lost Lyrics" box files. I have made a recital version of it (it is in "Lost Lyrics - Part 25"), but it was such a strong lyric, I really wanted to make it a full song. So, here, some 3 decades on, I have put music to it. It's quite a dodgy performance, but, it is what you see - trying to do my best, as my illness (see my F-MND videos) has now spread - too far.... This is the first of 3 takes, or to be slightly pedantic/specific, 3 versions, since I adjusted the music and metre slightly on all 3. I wasn't really happy with this one when I cut it - as you can tell at the end - but that was because I was continually missing an accentuated 7th on the E-minor, watching the playback, it doesn't seem too bad. I kind of like the song, it is interesting, in that it starts during the story, like when you walk into a room and there is something going down in there, an arguement, a frisson, and you're not sure what it is, who and how it started. There is 1 more video featuring this take of song (1644b), which is from an alternate camera, that has me composing the music and playing both the first take and this one (with a different sound mix).
