This is a site to get songwriters in Oldham (UK) to display their wares. We hope that it will become a central point for local songwriters to come to upload their songs and to check out what other songwriters in the area are up to. If we can build this community we would like to organise events etc. that will be of general interest to like-minded people. We welcome any suggestions that will improve the site.

Lyrics
A Moment of Clarity Do you remember playing in the fields High and wild the weeds The summer sky of youth You trusted in the truth And the adult world was weird Truth was something to be feared They have all the answers but the questions are unclear Who needs the dress codes, the rituals, the wars? Who can say what they’re for? Chorus: Yes I remember genuine reality It was commonplace when I was young And I saw the imposters In a moment of clarity And I knew them to be wrong When I was young Do you remember how much you really cared Eighteen and well aware Of your identity Determined to be free Anonymity was wrong, The price of striving to belong Who said youth was wasted on the young? Why be a consumer, at the mercy of The Man? Thinking you’re running your own life, Thinking you’re in command Chorus: Yes I remember genuine reality Boy, it was everywhere when I was young I saw through the deceivers In a moment of clarity And I knew them to be wrong When I was young
