wotcha folks
this is a song by paul vasey and myself called hammersmith bridge.
my partner was recovering from an operation, it was her birthday and our first tentative excursion after the 'little bit of trouble..' id got hold of tickets to see tame impala at hammersmith apollo .. they were good but excruciatingly loud and we left early deciding on the nearby tavern below the bridge.
it was a balmy summer night and the river was glistening and enchanting, the beautiful old iron bridge framing the scene. we stood taking in the atmosphere as the sun went down..
a young woman dressed in 1940s style with a rose in her hair seemed to appear from nowhere and walked slowly thro the crowd which seemed to open and part for her, like a beaming smiley ghost .. it was some welcome magic and stayed with us ever since.
pauls musical backdrop for this is truly exquisite and stands up on its own ..
and im so grateful to him for allowing me a beautiful canvas to sing with and express my feelings over that magical evening by hammersmith bridge...
anyways ..we hope you enjoy it..

lovers poets runners and footpads
all of those songs are on the river
it'll be regaled with stars, within the hour
it'll be like englands candlelight
all is safe and sound
see a woman from the blitz with a red rose in her hair
and a smile like war is over
outside in the balmy summer night
as seen by you and me
leaning on the rail
beneath the iron shoulders of hammersmith bridge
