First off: This is not a Valentine’s Day Mixtape!
No.
THIS IS THE STORY OF A LIFE IN LOVE, TOLD BY MUSIC!
THIS IS ATD21!
THIS IS LOVE LIFE!
Yes, I stayed up all night again, recording three and a half songs, countless mashups and remixes, , drinking Pepsi and JD and braving the madness that comes from not sleeping, to craft you this beautiful pink piece of High Concept… Travel with me, from the cradle to the grave, in a life of loving and, when favour intervenes, being loved too. This thing runs deep like a abyss.
A big thank you to Lee Smilex for the bass on The Saturday Boy and Optimax for the guitar on Brickbat. The call was answered! Music was transferred from miles away via thin air! J’adore Abite Dons Le Future!
I dedicate this to Charlotte, the love of my life, and to you, dear readerlistener, without whom there would be none of this. How ace are we? Making Love… out of nothing at all.
Word to Jim Steinman. Pow! Right, it’s time for me to do something romantic, like The Hoovering. Love has driven weaker men to stranger acts. And its still got along way to drive me. Anyway. I hope you enjoy this thing.
PAX!
