Introducing the greatest talent ever to emerge from the orange bedroom at my parents house. I play guitar like.... well, like a guy playing guitar. I tickle ivories. I twiddle on the computer. I sometimes enjoy beans on toast for breakfast. And in the cracks between the eating, sleeping, laughing, crying, working, breathing experience that is my life there sometimes slips out songs like these.

Lyrics
2 Tone Revolution Adrian J Pratt December 20 2020 Back in the Seventies, Two Tone music Playing in my car. Someone said, That's reggae" I said No. It's Ska. Moves your feet. Feel the Beat. Baggy trouser's, Ranking Roger, Coming out of Coventry Tonic suits, total multi cultural melting pot of energy Feel that Beat. Move your feet. Back in Jamaica, Prince Buster, 'Maytalls with Toots' Marllee, The Wailers, Skatalites, 'Rock Steady Root's' It's an ongoing revolution, a total musical evolution The Specials, The Selector, Madness and the Beat, Mirror in the Bathroom, Stand down Margaret Set Mandela free. Feel that Heat. Stamp those feet. Instrumental (Don't call me Skaface) Risen from grave, New Third Wave. Reel Big Fish, Aquabats, and the 'Mighty Mighty Boss Tones,' Less than Jake, Slackers , Sublime, Rancid, 'Fish Bone' It's an ongoing revolution, a total musical evolution 21st century, 2 tone Music Still Playing in my car People still saying 'It's reggae ' Still saying 'No. It's Ska. What a ride, gone worldwide In Russia, Japan, Venuzula and 'Gemany' Melbourne Ska Orchestra playing at 'Glastonbury' It's an ongoing revolution, a total musical evolution
