truthfully life is just catching up to me a bit, work is killing me, and i'm packing up stuff to move next month because i'm being evicted. i've got help from my friends, it's just too much for me. this is the first week i've not done a track about Riverdale, and the first week without lyrics, just wanted to write something about home. i listened to a segment about miners strikes in Durham, and it broke my heart a bit, so this is for them.
the interview playing over the intro i imagine is hard to understand for a lot of people because of how loud the music is, and also because of the accent. it's a man talking about a 14 year old kid leaving school and coming to work in the pit after his mother was widowed, only to die two days later in an accident. if you are interested in the whole thing, it's here. it moved me a lot.
I was working on an entirely different track this week that was upbeat and fun, but when saturday came around i didn't really have the head on me to finish it; maybe i'll come back to that another time when my mood is better
