Thank you to all for commenting  :)

I wasn't sure if it would cut the mustard...so I'm very pleased and grateful it went down ok.

I see it as a kind of epilogue-type thing that I'll maybe stick on the end of whatever half-assed third album I manage to cobble together.

Cheers!

I think it's the ultimate in interesting juxtapositions - taking a theme that a lot of people justifiably get super emotional about and using a machine totally devoid of emotion to deliver it...

Maybe not using the names of real organisations could make it a bit more universal but it's spot on for these everchanging times in which we live in...

 Hi Paul,

 Great work as usual.

 Tailor made for a video, I would have thought ;D

 Brilliant idea, love the lyrics...although I did think
 the 'Wikileaks' verse was a bit 'weak' compared to
 the rest. A bit too specific maybe...A wordsmith
 I aint ;D ;D Just how it came across...

 Musically, I liked the progression and the choice of
 instruments.  Would have liked to have heard a more
 powerful backing.  Little less 'studio', more 'orchestral'
 maybe.  Just my thoughts mate, I'm sure others
 will disagree ;D ;D

 Excellent stuff, imaginative and inspired, and I love
 the message ;D

Nowt as queer as folk...........my gran

So clever....so topical

Can we make this a bit longer please....maybe make it a longer EDM dance track... Can feel it in my feet.

Great tune

I'm with Tina on this one, great lyrics but to me the song was not quite of the same quality.
Some songs can almost have an hypnotic effect from repetition and lack of variation
(often combined with a great groove) but not so much here I'm afraid. Got me thinking of Paul Hardcastle's '19'.
Perhaps a more 'electronic' backing would work better i.e. dropping the drums and bass in favor of a drum machine and synth bass?

Hi Paul, I'm not a fan of conspiracy theory's , I'm more of a 'cock up' believer :o. Having said that though, the delivery of the words works very well with the news announcer type voice against an almost frivolous backing track which is totally  at odds with the seriousness of the topic. Artistic!
Nice one Paul!
Cheers
Jamie

I disagree the title is ace in fact it's the reason I listened to the track. Shove in some daft punk style vocals and you are on to a winner here I reckon  :) it's the second track ive listened to tonight with a real 80s vibe, very on trend
