Hi Guys,
A song about Brighton Beach life
This was a real joy to work on. Paul and Digger did all
the work.
I just supplied the backing track.
Paul. Vocals, Lyrics, Keys, Bass, and much more
Digger. Mix, Production, Guitar, drums 'n stuff
Me. Drums, bass, Guitar, Keys
.
It started life as a 60's inspired backing track. The Move,
Small Faces, that sort of thing. Then it was sent to Paul who
added some Brit Pop magic......the lyrics are the star of this
show for me
......Then to Digger who made it sparkle and
shine
.
I think Pauls lyrics have really captured a true 'essence' of what
it's like in Brighton. It's always had a very healthy music scene,
and a very active alternative culture. Everyone's an artist
There's always something happening on the seafront in the summer.
It's a great place to be......so pull up a deckchair, grab an ice cream,
and enjoy the show

Come see the buskers down by the beach huts
Cranking out their sounds on a battered Strat
Mods on their Vespas, rolling a rizla or busting out a groove in newsboy hats
The club DJ all tan and muscle spins for the boys on the parade
The string quartet in mirrored shades play above the seagull serenade
The hen party hit the kareoke, the townswomen's guild do the hokey cokey
Round and round the bandstand full of gin
The sixth form kids on a bunk from school are letting it go with millenial whoops
Behind the arcade with their cheeky grins
The dodgem guard is on the sweeties
He loves the sound of the merry go round
The pipe organ and painted gee gees
It's pier to pier feedback, come on down
Summers got the best tunes so slide down to the surf
This city runs on music, we know we've got it and we're gonna to use it
A tattooed pierced octogenarian skanks on the shore with a rastafarian
Short on cash but full of dreams
And Krishna Krishna Hari comes
Flowers bells shaved head and drums
It's love and peace and tambourines
The dodgem guard his head is spinning
He knows he's had no better day
The sun sets and it's just beginning
It's pier to pier feedback all the way
Summers got the best tunes so slide down to the surf
This city runs on music, we know we've got it and we're gonna use it
Summers got the best tunes so slide down to the surf
This city runs on music, we know we've got it and we're gonna use it
Thanks for listening guys....hope you enjoy it as much as
I do
