Music - Where's the Inspiration? - There it is!

There are many things I possess. Talent is unfortunately not one of them. I try to resurrect old ideas in trying to make an album, but seeing as there's no..Real basis on which I can begin. I'm still stuck dreaming a dream. Nothing tangible can be seen as of yet.

Why do I have no talent. Because I can't be arsed, my guitar is sitting there.. Gathering dust. Occasionally I do clean it off, but my house is a dust magnet anyway, so it's a short matter of time before, well... Before it comes back. I will eventually actually getting round to tuning it. But knowing my bad luck, those strings will break.

The Sax, is at present in about 1000 bits either on the other side of London or on the next road. I have made a request for its return, but still no reply from the culprit!

The bongos. I don't own a pair... But I want to. No doubt they will be in the corner at the end of summer gathering a nice thin layer of mould.

The Singing. Yes... I know... No excuse. I miss singing. Since my voice broke for its second time (the minute I stopped being annoying)I haven't really practiced. I'm too shy to open my mouth, even in the shower. I will happily sing mumble on the phone.

Until recently, I have felt really uninspired by anything.

Everyday is just a chore.

Get on the bus, get on the Victoria line, get on the circle, Hammersmith & City or
district line and walk 2 minutes. And repeat in reverse order

It was only until today, I met the manager of the Underground Development at Kings Cross. I was able to get a quick sneak peek at the Western Ticket Hall. The new hall opens on Sunday, which means my usual journey will change....

Now I will be going through Liverpool Street. Yes that adds an extra hour on to my journey. Why?? Because the new crappy ticket machines at Kings cross never seem to work. Plus there's nothing more inspiring than looking out the window. Compare the green pastures and reservoirs of Walthamstow Marshes, to the blackened concrete and wires of the Victoria line tunnels. Right I'm bullshitting now.
But that plus some good music leads to inspiration.

You got selfish tendencies,
You got selfish tendencies,
And your thoughts of the other one, Don't make it easy.

So Don't think about her pretty lips
And Don't think about her Honey Skin
And Don't think about her standing here
And how she nearly took you in.

I have to mention Lizz fields (http://www.myspace.com/misslizzfields).
Her music is inspiring in many ways (Won't go into depth). It's also on constant repeat on my ipod. The lyrics are tight, the melodies are sweet and the overall production is trés magnificente. (Where's my thesaurus, I'm not the best at expressing myself). Her Debut CD "By Day By Night" must be bought. Although sourcing it may be difficult, it's definitely worth buying, just to support such a talented independent artist. Check out the songs Star Gazers, Simply Put, Selfish Tendencies, Hey, and Silent Symphony. I might as well list the rest of the tracks!..As there isn't one song that doesn't meet such an excellent standard. And as if my addiction for her couldn't fade, she has a new LP called LizzPossible . I'm going to see (he says cheekily) if I can interview her. Fat Chance, but anything's possible. I'm inspired!
