PS. Amy Winehouse dying at the age of 27 – spooky? No. People die all the time, at all ages, musicians and non-musicians. The song below, from 2007, gently takes the piss out of the 27 myth. Enjoy.

I’m sofa dust / I’m lost / so far / I’m dust / I’m massive dust / Collected by time / Here is my home / A sofa / To recline / Don’t brush me off / Or sweep me off my feet / I’m happy here / with my three piece suite
I’ve read all the dictionaries of stoned philosophy
I’ve had the replies to the letters I wrote when I was three
I let the History Channel take over all my dreams
And I’ve talked with Nelson and Napoleon about the mysteries of the sea
But there’s still that eternal question plaguing my mind
Quaking in my mind
Honey, do I need yours or do you need mine?
I’ve studied the maps to the secret lies uncovered in the street
I’ve watched a broken empire crawl back to an empty seat
I’ve memorised the fates of a thousand greedy queens
I’ve seen a million soldiers squeezing oil out of a spleen
But there’s still that eternal question plaguing my mind
Quaking in my mind
Honey, do I need yours or do you need mine?
Check out this version of Stop The Tram recorded in November last year at The Shed in Leicester, when we played the Mississippi Chickenhead Lounge night:
The night (no longer happening, I fear) was promoted by the guys from the excellent country-blues bands the Forty Fours and the Outwoods County Riders – check them out here :
