Hi folks. I have added a lot of videos recently. Please take a look!
Hi folks, This site acts as a personal archive of my work. So you'll find my best recordings here as well as some pretty crappy ones. The earliest recordings here were made on simple cassette decks, others were made on mobile phones, some are live recordings made at various gigs over the years, a handful were made in small recording studios, but most of the more recent ones were made at home on a Zoom portable studio, which itself is now rather ancient! If you like a song and want to download it, click on 'Full song info' for that song and you will see the download link. You can also read the lyrics and any background information on the songs that I may have added. All my music is available for free - enjoy :) cheers, Charles

Lyrics
I took a book down off the shelf To see what stories its pages held But all I found inside was you My mind was far away On a rainy day With a yellow umbrella When we laughed so loud As the thunder clouds rolled around The hills of Bali I met a girl - she was your friend She told me stories all about you She said she’ll never meet again A friend so true You were so beautiful I’ll remember forever Before you came to bed You bowed your head to the floor My sweet believer All the secrets of the grave All the lives we couldn’t save All the pain we keep inside All the things we try to hide Adam.. Adam.. I know I’m talking to myself What use is a song for someone who’s gone? But maybe I can be the one To tell your story About a broken home And a fear of rejection When your father said You’d be better dead than gay What could you say? I scattered flowers where you lay Under the sky and the frangipani In a corner of Jakarta Far from Bali And there’s no going back To the yellow umbrella There’s just the broken dreams And the might-have-beens And the sound of the call to prayer All the secrets of the grave All the lives we couldn’t save All the pain we keep inside All the things we try to hide Adam.. Adam.. Adam.. Adam..
