Hi All,
http://soundcloud.com/toph-smith/ever-since-sydthis is a song which may fool some of you for thinking it is about Syd Barret, well it certainly is not. It is about someone called Syd (how bloody obvious is that!!!) who my mother shacked up with many many years ago, resulting in it affecting my sister, who became very bitter & jealous & resentful. Rather cruelly I have been inspired to write this. She absolutely loves it btw & I haven't told her that it is about her, yet, I will wait for a family wedding/funeral/christmas to break the news........... sounds like a great theme for a Mike Leigh film!!!
Please note the slight craziness in my voice is for effect & without the aid of Autotune or what the hell it's called, lol
LET'S STOP ALL THE UNPLEASANTNESS
