Some lyrics.
"Have you seen her come around?..."
"Follow this feeling..."
"... catching the sparks..."
"Come to me..."
"... tired of you..."
"... groovy..."
"... sugar bear..."
"Oh!..."
"... candy girl..."
"I've been to ancient worlds..."
"Marking the space between the days..."
"Love was in your eyes..."
"... scares me to death..."
"... pneumonia..."
"... no one is listening..."
"... joys of love are fleeting..."
Yes, the CD in the Swiss Toni Shuffleathon 2008 is ready and waiting to be dispatched to the (un)lucky recipient. As always, I have taken it all way too seriously.
16 tracks this year. More than normal. I normally draw a line at 12. Who want to bore a listener? There is even a concept involved, of a kind. A bit of a sad one.
Pretentious? Moi?

I'm not participating this year, but I still am listening to the CD I got from a certain someone last year!
English Rose & The Carnival Is Over? If I happen to draw you I will be blubbing to much to review it!
I've been trying to cram in as many tracks as I can - didn't really give a thought to the poor sod who's going to have to listen to it...hmmm...time for a bit of a re-think. I did have a concept though!
j: If that is true, I am extremely chuffed.
beth: Ooooh, you are very sussed.
Of course it's true! I even made sure to transfer the songs to my iPod for office iHome listening!
I'd like to say thank you sir for sharing the disc with me. I got it in the mail today, and promptly gave it a thorough listening and review.
