My little superstar group on the DanMingo album rocking out in a very funky way. This track was recorded totally live, inc my lead vocal, at Christchurch Studios in Clifton, Bristol in 2003.
Those sessions were epic for me, in every way. The vibe was amazing, the studio was incredible, the musicians were fabulous, my co-producer was awesome. I was just soooo happy with everything. One of the best times of my entire life.
I just over-dubbed some backing vocals on this track.
lyrics
You're watching your TV thinkin': 'That should have been me.'
Devouring every tabloid since they told you were android.
Then ringing radio stations seeking fame and denegration,
you're a star at karaoke but you never do the Hokey Kokey.
Drop, drop, drop dropping,
It's the game of the name and the name of the game.
Drop, drop, drop, drop dropping,
It's the name of the game and the game of the name.
Seconds.... it's fifteen seconds now.
Whatever Warhol said, you are better off instead,
in fifteen seconds. Just kill 'em dead, in fifteen seconds. Just kill 'em dead.
You're taking to the highroad in a 4-wheel-drive-by limo;
a demon on the road to ruin, never winding down your windows.
Changing rooms and faces in a movie made on credit,
always so dependable, you know they just won't geddit.
Drop, drop, drop dropping,
it's the game of the name and the name of the game.
Drop, drop, drop dropping,
it's the name of the game and the game of the name.
Seconds.... it's fifteen seconds now,
whatever Warhol said, you are better off instead in fifteen seconds.
Just kill 'em dead, in fifteen seconds. Just kill 'em dead.
You spin out your relations to the public while you're shining.
It's really not your baggage, someone else's you're refining.
With a global short attention span, you sound your bite then you're the man, with a fifteen second burning fuse, you use and reap, then burn and lose.

Loved Bridget with Hawkwind and Spirits Burning. This is an enthusiastic collection of songs with great performances and melodic and lyrical detail to fascinate.
