Story: I love the phrase Mental Anguish, It's so evocative (as are his loops) and I have also wanted to create a segue into and out of a radio piece ever since I fell in love with 'Wish you were here' by Pink Floyd.
So here is a marriage of the two. Syncronicity!
The radio bit, which I think works so well is not a mashup. It's just pure luck! My 5th track<br
Lyric: by Kamakura
Always start as you mean to go on
and never betray your beliefs
just think
Is it as bad as they say it is?
The Ozone layer is rather thin
An asteroid dulls your party grin
Global bad men seem to win
A flu pandemic somewhat grim
Tsunamis ruin christmas day
Your bestest friend isn't gay
Earthquake on the 5th of may
The weather is hotter day on day
If we believed what they say
Wed all live our lives in Mental Anguish
Always start as you mean to go on
and never betray your beliefs
We are only human
Is it as bad as they say it is?
