RETRO pop songs --- from another millennium and another galaxy.
My name's Pete. from Birmingham in UK-land. Nice to meet you ! I made a lot of very varied popsongs in the pre-digital age. I say they're McCartneyish, as I don't know how to categorize them. Allsorts. The description I use is RETRO I'm really a songwriter who wants others to perform these songs. So please bear that in mind as you grimace at my efforts to be acceptable. I'm especially concerned to write good lyrics, and if you do ever give some time to my stuff, I hope you will click to the lyrics and read those also. They don't come easy, you know. I'm plonking my songs here to give them a home, in the hope you might think they're not too bad. In fact, in the hope that you'll snap them up and I'll become an instant overnight megastar multi-millionaire. But failing that, I hope that you just like them. And if you do like one - I'd especially like it if you told me so. We all need strokes, eh ? Cheers ! Pete Songs-in-a-Bottle

Story behind the song
from an attempt at a serious musical
Lyrics
nothing was unusual that evening when my son began to say " I am still your loving son and you have taught me honesty and now the time has come for me to say I'm gay, I'm gay " how hard it was there and then to bear the brunt of that so long hidden truth he now forced me to confront gay, gay, gay when I learnt my son was gay ambitions of all my years were gone and collapsed in tears my unquestioned future hopes assumptions that I had made all stopped at a barricade now I had to take words seriously now I had meanings of life to weigh here before me was my son, who trusted in me and who loved me enough to tell me he was gay now the son I'd always taught to seek what was fair and just was offering me his trust here was truth my son was speaking to me here was the faith of reality though my world seemed torn apart I knew somewhere deep in my heart I was proud he told me he was gay
