I learnt music from listening to music... never had any lessons or anything... thinking about getting some though, some theory could be useful i reckon... studied english literature at GCSE... ;)

[Nabila28814]

Your lyrics are so creative, I wonder if you ever studied literature or something related to it...

I was about to ask, where did you learn music?

[friedaflysaspaceship]

Love this so much!! When are you next playing in london??!! I'd love to see you live...

[undercoverhippy]

@friedaflysaspaceship not til next year I'm afraid... :(

[friedaflysaspaceship]

@undercoverhippy I will be there!

[emzyxxx100]

I love undercover hippy but I can't seem to find a video of boyfriend on youtube. does anyone have any links?

[undercoverhippy]

@emzyxxx100 Am gonna try and do a proper video for Boyfriend when I get back after the winter... but may do a simple acoustic one before then if it's needed... :)

[batfink161]

can't wait for sunrise!!!

If you're against the troops, get a greencard. Don't take your freedom for granted. I'd love to say "now this song makes sense" but it's rubbish.

Without war, there is no peace.

With sacrifice, there's meaning.

[undercoverhippy]

@Flagged4PvP Hey Bud, thanks for the comments. My song is, like any 3 minute explanation, a gross over-simplification of a very complex issue. But your definition over-simplifies it even further. It only takes a brief study of both our nations histories to see that war is not what it appears to be. I recommend watching a very good documentary called "Why We Fight"... not a youtube conspiracy movie, but a proper film distributed by Sony. All the best! :)

[RaD1K4l]

@Flagged4PvP of course there is peace if there is no war, thats the whole meaning of the word. we need to learn to settle or differences with words not weapons, and thats exactly what he's doin...

[lordpenut1]

Enjoy the summer and the festivals, i'll be seeing you there sometime, love

@beamerkingtonka Hey Bud, new tracks still waiting for me to get my voice well enough to record vocals... no chance this week as I have a stinking cold and sore throat! As soon as I'm better, I'll make a simple acoustic video of Global Recession... have got a new camera and been waiting to try it out! Watch this space...
