Fecked if I know why and perpetually dazed and confused as to how come this song has never really taken off. Lack of promotion, presence, exposure, wrong time wrong place? Possibly all that and more. Of course I might be an idiot and somewhat biased as well. However when I look and listen, I'm still proud of this piece of work: the singing, playing, production and songwriting are as good as anything else floating in the ether.
Just Ali, Martin, Ziggi and me in a basement studio in Germany one afternoon and we really knocked this off. It's more than twenty years old now but remains firmly stuck at the muddy bottom of the audio and digital ocean. The video, which I think is pretty good too (thanks to Rotor), came along a lot later but it's also going nowhere. Ho hum.
Only ever a few inches from success but those few inches can make all the difference. I just noticed that one of our newer tracks (Friends) had enjoyed over 6000 streams on Snapchat over the last few months and from that we earned less that a cent, aka bugger all.
