Ambitions you have that might sound silly to others

Fed up talking videogames? Why?

Lime, having a listen to your music now, love the music itself but I'll be honest the vocals don't really do much for me, I can't be too critical though as its probably 100 times better than I could manage.

That first song on the playlist (I'll sing for you) sounds very Rush like, really like the bass guitar on that one, the second one sounds a bit like Toto's Africa.

Don't worry. I'm never truly alone on Christmas day. I have ghosts of the past and my own personal demons for company, it's a full house!

So far this year, I have eaten NO mince pies.

These were recorded about 30 years ago and the vocals are definitely of their time - we were emulating our heroes from back then- Level 42, Nik Kershaw et al. - the singing was always a bit of an afterthought, it was all about the music for us!

There's no vocals on Busy Life and Funky Chicken, so that might work better for you. I've always wanted to do a studio version of Funky Chicken (there's only a live recording). Can anyone here copy the guitar part and sound? I haven't seen the guitar player in decades so I can't ask him. I've no idea how hard/easy the guitar part is?!
