Artist picture
Singer-songwriter, arranger and producer: acoustic contemporary folk but ranging into rock/blues/country/jazz/humour...all very eclectic, I'm afraid!
Martin Stirrup Singer/songwriter An old folkie who got back into it... These days I sing and play guitar(s) and other stringed instruments, then score and orchestrate where appropriate. My taste becomes increasingly eclectic ranging from finger-picked folk through country to soft rock mixed in with a few more alternative and eccentric numbers, including the odd novelty foxtrot...

Story behind the song
Indian pop with sitar! Common practice in India. We watched this being done for a new car in Mysore a couple of years ago – given the dangers of driving on Indian roads it seems like it might be a good idea!
Lyrics
MC 13 Bless my car 124bpm Indian pop with sitar! Dm G Gsus4 There’s a spectrum, you must agree Dm G Gsus4 From materialism to spirituality Dm G Gsus4 Though some go searching for a mystical fix F G Most people treat it like a pick and mix Though you’d expect to find me holding back I think I’ll maybe try a different track I know you might find this a little bizarre But I’m gonna get someone to bless my car DDm F G Bless my car - you know that it can’t think for itself G F Dm Bless my car - It needs a helping hand to keep it health Dm F G Bless my car - To keep those obstacles out of its way G Ab A A+7 Bless my car - In the long term sure it’s bound to pay Get me a Brahman with his sacred flame I’ll break a coconut he’ll do the same He’ll smear a tikka on that shining chrome Deck it in flowers as I drive it home. You can keep your plastic Jesus with his nodding head Or Allah woven out of sacred thread Don’t want no Buddha or the virgin Mary Give me Ganesha grinning back at me
