Artist picture
English guitarist, programmer and producer. Music from huge emotional epic ballads to psychedelic progressive space rock.
Milo Black is the recording project composed of Miles Walsh and whoever else turned up on the day (including ex-wives, geologists, next-door neighbours and a large bowl of water). This page is just a few samples of what I do. For (lots)more, and links to my collaboration projects, visit my main page at http://www.mp3.com/miloblack.

Story behind the song
Originally demo-ed in 1988, with my then-girlfriend doing the spoken-word lines. Re-recorded in 1991, with my then-girlfriend (later wife, now ex-wife) Pam filling that role. Financial news stolen from BBC Radio 4.
Lyrics
Get tight. You're always ready to stand up and fight You see the whole world in black and white. More speed. You always take more than you really need. Is this the way to succeed? You got no problems, you can call on the carphone For information on the state of the Dow Jones. You got a wife, you got a mistress in Leytonstone. Don't tell Straight to hell Doing well. No trust. You got to satisfy your money lust And you think that you've got it sussed. Less sleep. You want to be the one to top the heap. Don't expect me to stand and weep. Where will you go when someone takes away all the laws? What will you do when we are knocking on every door? How will you cope when you can no longer screw the poor? Nowhere Out there Seems fair. We're gonna get you in the end.
