The Streets - Twitter Album - A Blip on a Screen

[jakemc95]

Waste of time mike skinner what the fucking is ur job title. Singer, rapper or producer cuz to be honest he just talks in all his songs and that's just fucking ridiculously bad, the streets should just fuck off

[gooner4lifekf23]

@jamesarongray use zamzar or some other video converter

zamzar.com :D

[l3x1983]

I suspect its about his unborn baby that is due.

Although I can really relate to this atm because my son was born last year but the nasty bitch of an ex has still not let me see him. To me this is soo relevent as the blip on a screen (ive only seen online pictures) of the child that I love still doesnt know me :(

[kawasakiexpress]

I know Mike won't read these, but i've had an idea..

Mike should do an Apprentice/X-Factor crossover TV series for the next project.

Mike as Alan Sugar, competing songwriters & firing if below par-the successful candidate being taken under his wing to write excellent songs.

Who better to do it than Mike, all shades of music covered, along with excellent songwriting ability-perfect antidote to the @~:{? Factor!

He could change the "Star in a tin" to something more lasting & promote a future skill

[EDDYCUE]

One of the best ballads ive ever heard of him! great tune!

[nickcisgod]

Mike Skinner = Lyrical Genius

[jamesarongray]

how can u get these tracks? please someone help!

[interpolluter29]

Yeah! To hear this is going to be on the album is the best news I have heard in a while! :-)

[NSM04]

PICK A BOTTLE OFF THE TABLE, PEEL THE LABEL, TELL A FABLE!

[lbidewell]

i like this shit makes me wanna shit myself

[DarkMoon6]

I have been in love with this song since it came out. Mm, Mike Skinner, thank you for your amazing music and lyrics <3

[GordenBrown3D]

This song got me through so many nights I just felt so bad, It always reminds me of this girl, the lyrics are just so easy to relate to, Mike Skinner, thank fuck God put you on the earth whilst I was still alive. If it was any other time, I wouldve never been able to get by alot of the time.

Long live Mike Skinner.

[GordenBrown3D]

It's about haveing a baby. But could also be interpreted as losing someone also, a rather 'flip flop' effect on this song.

[jamesarongray]

don't ever stop making music mike

[NiktoBeats]

its blatantly about having a kid

[ideasoner]

first 24 seconds and i love it, stopped to listen to the hole album later, dont wana spoil the suprise!

[whuaable]

I really love that song but what is it about? Sometimes it's really difficult to understand his lyrics.

[whuaable]

I love that song but what is is about? Sometimes Mike's lyrics are really hard to understand :-/

[PsychedelicVideos]

these tunes are alright, nothing special. skinner can do WAY better.

it will sully his great legacy if these are the tunes he releases for the final streets record...

[AKGuerilla47]

Classic.

[padgettlad]

[joeflo123]

tune

[deathxmetalxhippy]

this is just mad. i love you; you're only a hundred pixels on a scan

what an amazing line to end on

[driffter2k7]

Tune sends me into a trance of deep thinking, mind you, all Mikes songs have that effect on me,Mike is one serious lyrical genius and noone will ever take that title from him (:

[mornagrant]

so true . so true ! his songs all have meaning .

[BuZeMyGaming]

@driffter2k7 ..ITS MORE OUT TO THE TUNES U CAN RELATE TO AND BEAT FOR YOUR MIND THAT U CAN FEEL IN THAT MOMENT OF TIME..

[thomasthecat123]

Great tune but it kinda reminds me of Catdog by the Prehistoric Possums. Anyone see the resemblance?

[majkskiner]

lyric???

[leanravon]

Twitter albom guys (L) x

[DougieB1990]

has anyone got all the songs from Twitter? I've only got 2 or 3 :(

[TheEscapist08]

One of his best ballads this I think, and there's been some good one's. Really nice song.

[mcspolif]

that's nothing to be upset about. The way he delivers this track is so good he makes it his own. and anyway it's not on any album, nor has it been commercially released (yet)! If anything I think he did just use this song because he felt it was the best way to express how he feels in the knowledge that he's about to be a dad. my mrs is pregnant now and this song get's me every time! having a child is something so special! i can't wait to be a dad!

[mcspolif]

so what if he did 'cover' it! artists cover other artist's songs all of the time. i'm sure if he did really 'nick' this tune, the original artist will get paid out anyway. it's a great track either way and i'll carry on listening to it and enjoying it!

[DjCovenant]

but i thought he was always original :(

[czerwoneguitary1990]

see when somebody sais the truth people dont like it :( mike copied this song and thats that, so stop hating @

[marsnoob]

beautiful!

[Seamus2593]

makes me think... : /

[slackerbitch11]

genialne

[renameduser134]

This is one of the best ballads from The Streets. Really nice song. Almost feel like I've grown up with the guy over the years! :)

[muzakking]

wow, does anyone know if these are songs left off everything is borrowed, or off computers and blues??

[streetsFan08]

there like samples of what he might put on his new one computers and blues, he thinks this will be on it

[antonskii]

doesnt have to be about his kid, just about someone having a kid

[streetsFan08]

when the hell is he having his kid cus aprils almost over, he never twitters about his soon to be child

[Kingmichaelfish]

this song is about the kid he's soon to have

and seeing it through like ultrasound i guess

[apocfosho]

This sounds like it could be off A Grand Don't Come For Free tbh. I'm glad he's making proper music again.

Everything Is Borrowed was good, don't get me wrong - but his previous albums were much better imo

[Kiplefti]

thx for sharing the songs lighton! skinner is king!!

[streetsFan08]

i love him too much, he's such a legend

thanks fo sharing these!

[w1ktor]

wow!

[mcspolif]

needs to make a tune with UNKLE or IAN BROWN, he seems to be on that vibe

[lightonbuildings]

know some touring members of unkle. will ask them about it.

[mcspolif]

cheers buddy! i'd love to hear a new type of collaboration other than the B-side versions of tracks with GRIME artists

[czerwoneguitary1990]

michael skinner copied this song from an apple garage band song called "elysium" i dont think this is very fair to be honest :(

[Molinman]

Where can I find that?

[whitewaterkase]

Do we know Anne Clark? She and They are Great !!!

Wounderfull

Thanks

[WokmonDJ]

@mcspolif sort of mate ye, never thought of them on same level due to genre differences. I doubt Mike would to me he would find Ian Brown a cunt

[mornagrant]

skinner is a legend

[mornagrant]

amazzzzzinnn

[B333KAY]

wow... can't say anything else.
