Just a bit of fun messing around with style/genre. Reckon I could make bluesy versions of all my songs 🤣 Let me know what you think ❤️ (Note: kids screaming in background were having fun- nothing to worry about 😁)

Where do I even begin? The honour I feel being allowed to cover this song by Robin Rendell. This one spoke to me because I'm fond of the melancholy and love a good murder ballad (not really sure what that says about me) so I asked Robin if I could give it a go. Hope I've done it justice. This version heavily inspired by Tony Ridgway's recording, which you should also check out! The words are Ro...

    I've listened a couple of times, Catherine, and it's most certainly a song that expects me to listen again, my good friend. It's a song that draws me in and takes me to a very interesting place. There's a wonderful depth to the lyric and I like that a lot. You write in a rhythmically liberated way, and I like that a lot also. Your melody is in perfect tune with your words. Your vocal and guitar capture the essence of the lyric, capture inner strength through resignation. That is quality, that is talent. Big respect from me, Catherine. I can see why you like your song as much as you do.

      Thank you, Robin- it's funny because the process for me is usually music first then lyrics, but with this one it was the reverse, so maybe that's something I need to explore some more

    I wrote you a note and sent it with you Its contents elude me but the feeling isn't dead Now I write a note and sing it for you A way to ease the clutter in my head I write notes on the backs of envelopes They're messy and imperfect but they're mine They help me to make sense of something bigger To help ideas withstand the test of time I wrote you a note and sent it with you Its contents elude me but the feeling isn't dead Now I write a note and sing it for you A way to ease the clutter in my head My mind's an unreliable narrator It dwells on what it wants to and no more But notes and melodies assist its healing And help to break the cycle at its core I wrote you a note and sent it with you Its contents elude me but the feeling isn't dead Now I write a note and sing it for you A way to ease the clutter in my head A way to ease the clutter in my head Lyrics Copyright © Catherine McCrystal January 2025

    I am a great believer in a good tweak, Catherine. I can’t tell you how many times I have tweaked a song immediately after I’ve gone public with it. lol😊 It’s almost as if it’s part of the process. Songs evolve as we perform them, till we feel easy in their company. This song, my good friend, is a song that would help elevate any songwriter to the top of their art. You deserve to feel easy in its company.

    One minute the sky is on fire, the next it fades like a bruise I keep looking up hoping answers will fall down Then I spend the rest of my day wandering around just staring at my shoes Afraid to look anyone in the eye in case I drown An abandoned cup of coffee sits as I try to make sense of this world 'Work hard' we're told and 'you'll achieve all of your dreams' Sorry that's the biggest pile of bullshit that I think I ever heard Compare the many empty pockets to the few busting at the seams 'Count your blessings' we're told countless times, and just shove those feelings down 'What do you have to complain about anyway?' Crying about your problems doesn't make the world go round So 'just smile', 'be nice' and everything will be OK Don't ask questions, don't push back, and accept things as they are Cos you might hurt someone's feelings, God forbid Don't mess with the status quo, don't examine the 'rules' too hard Don't poke the bear, don't you dare to lift the lid Copyright © Catherine McCrystal January 2025
