We've told Lucky a thousand times

Haven't we, Voice? 'Yes. At least a thousand.' Why does he do it?! 'He's perverse, boss. Nothing less than perverse.'

Dear reader(s), Lucky has sent me another PR email in, uh ... PDF form. Obviously, I'll do the best I can with it ...

Anything else? Music?

I haven't written the Mighty Soul lyric yet. Stop worrying about it!

I made a few lyrical adjustments to Malibu and Nothing at the weekend.

Oh, this will be the demo -

Mighty Soul
Stella
Malibu
Nothing

That's the best combination of songs.

I'm going to buy the audiobook for Being John Lennon. Written by Ray Connolly, of course ... the Stardust and That'll Be The Day man. He was supposed to interview Lennon on the day he died. Or the next day. Whatever. Lennon also told him about The Beatles breaking up, before anyone else.

Laters.
