 Breeds, thanks very much for sending out this Breeds Devin good friend of ours up there from Aardbow, in the fine county of Tyrone. And from Aardbow, we head right down to Derry again and we say hello and welcome back to the fold, Newella Hutton. It's been a couple of years hasn't it? It's been too long, and so much has happened and so much has not happened. You're a big fight with coffee. Ness Cafe has sponsored her, as you can see, she's a Ness Cafe. I can't stand either you people. What are they telling you? Check out her Facebook page and you'll see her. No, I took it down. Did you take it down? Because there were so many trolls on it, I thought, no, I can't be dealing with it. Do you get that then when you put something out of the way? It's just some random people who don't have any friends or you know that just, you know what I mean. Me and Jimmy? Exactly. Two twats. No, I laugh when I see it and I say, oh God, she's definitely got annoyed with this coffee. It was just, you know, it was so hurt, I think, more than, oh you better stop laughing at me. No. I know, I'd be hurt about coffee too. I never drank coffee in my life. It's not about coffee. No, it's a principle. I drank one cup of coffee in my lifetime. And that was with Johnny McAvoy, the singer. And he was doing, I've always been a fan of Johnny McAvoy. And he brought out a book, a beautiful book, and I said, he was playing at the Hayland Radio Concert. So I was able to access all areas. Concert, really? Oh, right. And I was drawing the back, and I was drawing the back of the material and chatting up. And he chatted to me, the guy I'm chatting to. You know, he was the way he was. And he said, you'll take a coffee. Well, I couldn't say no. And he was chatting to me like, why would it be any different? Some people do, but some people. Those are not the people you want to be around anyway. Well, we don't be around too many of them. No. And in fact, I don't think we've been around any of them. I find, see people who were really famous that I met, were the nicest people. And see the people I met, who had nothing and struggling, were the nicest people. It's the in-between people that aren't quite there and aren't quite, you know... Going nowhere? Going absolutely. Just not... Come here. How's things been with you? I just, you know... Music-wise? I've just been writing, and I haven't really been doing any gigs. There really isn't much happening, to be honest, since Covid. You were active on the Facebook scene then, weren't you doing the live shows and stuff? I was doing really well. And then the world opened up again, and nobody wanted to... Nobody needed me anymore, so they just left. I'm going to fall up here. But come here. People want to get in touch. You're on social media. Of course I am. Vocally, you're absolutely amazing. I'm not saying that because you're in front of us, because your albums have just blown me away. I always have, and you're styling music. And I'm going back a long, long time, because I'm going back to you, as I said before, your first album that we bought off you in the Millennium Forum many years ago. Wow. That's a long time ago. And because you were doing support for Christy Moore, was it? Yeah, and I did. And Francis Black, too. Maybe it was Francis Black. Maybe it was Francis Black, and it was just one of them nights. And I had heard tell you're name, but I hadn't heard your music, and you just, oh, it was unbelievable. I still have that album in the house. I have it in the house, you know. But come here. We're going to go straight on the music, and then we'll chat about them. So, first up for us... This is a new song. It's called Eagles and a Blinkered Life. Wow. And it's basically... What we're talking about there now, basically? Well... People in there. It's just people changing what they physically look like, and, you know, I'm just not really getting the big picture, and I don't know. You'll hear them, you'll hear the lyrics. It's the first airplay, then. Yes, it's... An exclusive. Jimmy. An exclusive. Right down to it. Jesus. Absolutely brilliant. I've got a few other songs, too. I've been working on it, you know, when you're doing nothing else. But I started this new venture. Yeah, tell us about that. I've seen it on your Facebook page. You just have to sort of think outside the box, whenever, you know. Of course. I'm doing a... It's a thing called Send a Song. You know, instead of sending somebody flowers, or saying you're going through a divorce, and you want to send somebody flowers, or saying you're going through a divorce, or saying you're going through a divorce, and you want to send a really bad, you know, just a bad message. You know, any... There's any reason do you want to send a song to somebody just any special occasion, birthday, anniversary, you know, just a friendship, memory. Divorce is a good topic. I know. I found somebody in you today. Now that you're away. Goodbye. Goodbye. Never glad to see the back of you in all my life. That's good. That's good. Well, that's enough. I'm sorry, I was getting carried away. Try to just hold it back every minute. No, but that's a good idea. So, if someone wants... It doesn't get more personal than that, really. Exactly. So, basically, I record... They pick a song, any song they want. And it's been really interesting, because I'm actually learning songs that I would never think to, like, spice gears. Don't even. Don't even. But it's worked out lovely, you know, but you're putting your slant on them songs. Absolutely. Oh, yeah. You're not trying to replicate them. No, no, no, no, no. Just mean a guitar. Of course. But I did a lovely song for a lovely couple called Kavina and Will, and they're just... They're just so lovely, lovely people. But I've done a few now at the minute, but it's never enough, but it's OK for now. How do you find that? How do you find that experience, do you not? It's really... It's actually quite emotional, so a lot of people really connect, you know, music's amazing in a way. Music saved my life, I can't imagine how other people feel, but, you know, when somebody requests a song for them, there's some of the things that people have written, you know, like, I'm sitting here crying, I can't cope with how beautiful it is, you know. It's nice, it's a nice thing to do. It's a one-off. As you say, people buy... Flowers die. Same old, same old, all the time, you know what I mean. The ironing board covers my wife's most of 50 of them now, like, and I'm... I said, I'm not buying them any more. I would hit you with it. Darling, don't be by me anymore. Darling, bully, darling. But, hey, that's a great novel idea. That was brilliant. Can we just remember, the last album was... You'd done the launch down in... Gashard. And I stayed for a bit, because I was up here that Saturday night, and I had it at a show. I just loved it. I loved the whole... One of them later just could have sat on there, you know what I mean, but you enjoyed that. You recorded the documentary, never into it. How long goes that now? My God, it must be four years, four or five years. Time flies. It's mental. It is mental. I can't believe the day is Monday. Is it Monday, Tuesday? Monday, Tuesday. It's Tuesday. It's already Tuesday. I thought it was Friday, last week. That's Monday. The clues in the title. It's Tuesday sessions. All right, Paul. Whatever. But, come here, you'd love to get back in the gig and again and stuff, wouldn't you? I have something that's... I can't in the pipeline. I can't talk about it. That's okay. I'm sorry. I'm delighted. As soon as it's... I'm up here, okay? It'll be an exclusive. That's brilliant. I'm delighted to see that, because we watch you on Facebook, but you know, we're very open on Facebook. Oh, absolutely. I think it's important. Do you find that therapeutic when you open up like that? You see, when you're so isolated, I mean, I live on my own. Well, you're Boba. Boba's a bastard. No, excuse my French, but no, do you know what I mean? I thank God for animals, because I just couldn't live without animals. But I also look after my elderly neighbour downstairs, Helen too, and she's just crack like she is so funny. But when you're isolated, you have a lot of time in your head on your own, and I suffer from... You name it, I suffer from it. But thank God for pharmaceuticals, because they really work. But it's dark, it gets really dark, and whenever lockdown was up happening, and it was very isolating, so it was... I just thought, I want to talk to people on Facebook, on my page, and I'm not alone, it makes me feel less alone. Now, you find that. I think the fact you know, because I watched every one of the videos you put up, and you're not alone, because... Trust me now, you're not. But anyway, as I say, it's something that helped you out, and helped you along that journey that you're on. And a great journey it is, and things will pick up again, because your talents just don't... I've never made a plan in my life. I've never planned anything. Things just happen the way they're supposed to happen. So I don't believe in... I used to say, people used to say to me like, God, I can't wait to be rich and famous. I'm like, see when the spotlight's on you, what have you got to say? What is so fascinating about you? It's not about that, it's about what can you do to help her. It's not all about coffee. It's coffee. It's coffee gold. Right, we're going to get another song, but I'm going to take a nap break for us. Next song coming up is... It's a wee song for Kavina and Will, and it's called Will You. It's a hazel conner. Ah, class. On the way after this break, Noella Hutton Live Institute. Don't leave! Don't leave!
