about

We were told the world would collapse if we all stopped working. Lockdown came, we all stood still and nature carried on - and started to recover.

Having said that, as a band we are unable to meet up or play live concerts. With no government help currently available to us, our income is zero - unless we can sell something online. So here's a single download that you can buy for a basis price. If you are willing and able to pay more to help the band through lockdown, please pay as you feel. Please check out our website for CDs and downloads of our 5 albums and merchandise. We are very grateful and hope you enjoy the song. Andrew & Mark.

lyrics

Splendid Isolation

Something in the air today, where we stand is where we stay
The outside world has gone away in Splendid Isolation
We take ourselves out of the game, let us see where this will land
The future as it always was, still unknown…..

There is something in the air we know, There’s something here between us all
Waiting for the wind to blow, waiting for the world to call
Reaching out to hear a song with no-one here to play along
The outside world has gone away in splendid Isolation.

The world keeps turning, and we stop moving
The world keeps turning, can we start learning…

Never seen the sky so blue,
They always said to keep on rowing
Left here wondering what to do
As he river keeps on flowing

The wheels come to a grinding halt, the engine quickly looses speed
The dust and smoke will disappear the water flows much clearer here
Now we hear the singing birds above the failing engine
They sing a song that has no words in Splendid Isolation

Never seen the sky so blue,
They always said to keep on rowing
Left here wondering what to do
As he river keeps on flowing

The world keeps turning, and we stop moving
The world keeps turning, can we start learning…
