Beautiful Blur...


...written when I was in an unusual mood.  It's a funny, but addictive feeling, to write a song.  You're not alone when you create.  Inspiration must be the name of the angel God sends with the gift of creativity...

Jamie, and Richard (Lush) brought this song to life though, in the recording process.  They saw it for all of it's wondrous glory.  And it is still one of my favourite songs from the album.  It is heaven when the band rocks it out, and it is like a confiding friend when done acoustically on the piano.  In short, I love it and am very proud of it's beauty now that it's all grown up and streaming from the music player to your left, and waiting for you to buy her on iTunes!

Reviews welcome...

Beautiful Blur...

You've been so abnormal and out of control,
I know where these things go...
Take a guess, it isn't good
Have you been told, you will not surely die
Tonight?

What have you done, with all the beautiful things about you?
What have you done with all the love..?

You've been so paranoid and anti-social!
(Nobody understands, and they're all out to get you!)
Take a breath, look at the light-
It's all a bluff, to "fuzzy up" your sight
Tonight.

What have you done, with all the beautiful things about you?
What have you done with all the love...?
And we go from day to day
With firm ideas about life and love,
And nothing seems to change until we want, what we want,
Become a law, unto ourselves!
And you've got new things, she picked out for you-
As well as a whole set of new ideas,
Funny how when you know nothing you know it all..!

What have you done?

Take a guess,
It isn't good,
If you've been told you will not surely die;
It's a lie.
