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...

Lyrics
Flights of fancy Too All in E apart from the break in B Thoughts are running helpless thoughts are running free Slipping in perceptions of where we ought to be Yellow eyed daisies staring at the sun Hold on to the thought that one is all and all is one Treading on the pavement skipping o’er the cracks Filling with a feeling black is white and white is black Treasure every second, treasure every first Run to all that beckons, slake your every thirst Wisdom in a moonbeam, silence of the night Slide into that hidden zone where even fear takes flight Master of oblivion master of the game Everything is different, everything the same. Matchless in perfection safe without a flaw How will you every slip through that open door Break down all the barriers strip reality Of its seasoned mischief and false solidity Breakfast on the moment, drink up every hunch Reaching the conclusion the world is out to lunch Wallow in the quagmire before you set off free Dreamscape of confusion is the certainty Rise through the obfuscation of confusing verse Life thrives on complexity truth is rarely terse Music most spectacular, music of the spheres Music’s the vernacular of happiness and tears
