A new song fresh from the PBGB Shed, This time with lyrics by Graham Brown. It's titled Move On.
Graham tells us that "the lyrics echo a common refrain about how to approach life i.e. ‘Forget the past. Focus on the future’.
We often feel trapped by circumstances beyond our control and don’t know quite how to deal with them. Sometimes they’re only imagined or self imposed. The only way out is to move on….put it all behind you because there may be nothing you can do to change the circumstances.
So much of what we think, believe and feel is influenced by the media, political spin, ‘alternative facts’ and the views of others that it's hard to separate fact from fiction anymore. We need to recognise how manipulated we are and find a way to cut through the confusing and divisive clutter. Let's move on and get back to what really matters and what’s clearly visible. Just follow the sun."
Quite the philosopher that Graham Brown !
It was a fun song to piece together. All started with the lyrics. Add a drum feel, lock the bass and percussion in, sprinkle some guitar lines across it. Bring on the sax and vocals. Garnish with some background vocals and then MOVE ON !
Thanks Graham.............great fun
