Random Ramblings |
Just as the title says this is a place for random ramblings. Things that play on my mind, catch my eye or just can't be said outloud. I may promote the work of my friends every now and then, they are wonderful, talented people. Feel free to drop me a line anytime if you feel the need. x![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

So very very excited for this album!
Our new single Saviour is now available to download! Head to our online store now, otherwise it is and will be available from iTunes and the rest (there’s currently a few sites that it’s not showing up on but this will be rectified shortly).
Saviour comes along with two b-sides Smile and Where The Good Luck Takes Me taken from some early Heavy In The Day sessions recorded with Peter Miles.

| When a girl wants to kiss you: | She plays with her hair, looks down, fiddles with her fingers, and waits for you to make a move |
| When a boy wants to kiss you: | Smiles nervously, tilts his head slightly, and waits for the right moment to make a move |
| When I want to kiss you: | I look at you from a distance, and start sobbing about how ugly I am and that I'll die with 80 cats, approximately |
Have you ever had so much to say that you just don’t say anything at all?
Been in that kind of place recently. Personal and professional life has been at a bit of a stand still recently. Feels like I’m stuck in the middle of one big shift and I’m waiting for something big to come along and shake things up again with equal amounts of trepidation and anticipation. I simply don’t know what’s coming and that fear that it may be something I don’t want is ever present. My resolve is however, to embrace whatever it may be, good, bad or indifferent I need something so come what may. Under the guidance of a very important person in my life I’ve been trying this ‘embrace’ thing a little recently, the results so far seem to be good. Made a pretty major decision that I’m still waiting to see if I will regret, right now it seems like a wise move but who knows!
On the musical side of things I have been listening to this little gem non stop for the past two days. Yes Aiden is a former X-Factor contestant but this should not be held against him. I remember when he first auditioned, I remember thinking ‘FINALLY’ someone with REAL potential and not just out to play the fame game. He is a legitimate artist with a unique talent. I couldn’t be happier that he took two and a half years to work out his goals and develop who he wanted to become as a musician.
Number one single or one time radio play I will always have endless respect for an artist who remains true to themselves regardless of media/industry pressure that swallows up so many promising acts and spits them back out on the sidewalk of ‘could have beens’. I am so proud to see that there are still musicians out there who can be successful without walking the walk and talking the talk that is dictated to them.
I keep thinking about how much I cannot wait to have a career I am so passionate and sure about that absolutely nothing can warp or sway my thoughts and actions. Scary as it is to accept I have already started this career really. I have been afforded so many experiences and found myself in several situations over the last two years I never though were possible. If this is any indication of the future then I cannot wait for the next crazy event to come along and sweep me away further to where I want to be….if I’m honest I’m not entirely sure where this is yet but I’m having a hell of a time figuring it out…important decisions and clever moves lie ahead….
Just keep swimming… :)

There is something so intriguing and yet so haunting about this track…
This song really is something very special.
Simple and beautiful, just like love should be. Unfortunately that is not always the case, in reality love sucks sometimes but as Mercutio said, ‘If love is rough with you, be rough with love’. Sound advice really, if only it were that easy? When did love and feelings get so political? Every look, every text, every word examined until the intent behind them is completely obscured. Maybe it’s always been like this and is just another reality of growing up, the illusion of a fairytale turns out to be just that, an illusion. Disney may have a lot to answer for in this argument but I choose to side with Disney on this one….remaing blindly optimistic for now that someday things will all just fall into place….
Year in year out things keep changing more than I imagined possible so who am I to say never? My thoughts on this topic change almost hourly, it really does puzzle me…sort of running out of patience really….optimism don’t fail me now!

This is the goal…so far…it’s not going to bad :)

So I’ve come to realise that I tend to be nocturnal….agonising over getting college work all day, distraction after distraction and then BOOM it’s 12pm and I’ve just written 1,000 words! It’s quite frustrating as I like mornings and I haven’t seen many of them recently….gotta work on this!
Just keep swimming…
Love this!
