Hi Folks, Im from Glasgow, Scotland and have been trying, like most people here, to get that break which is so elusive to most of us. Truly glad to say, that after many years of trying and blowing a few chances along the way, Ive recently been asked for 8 of my songs, in various styles, for the sountrack of the forthcoming action movie; "Revenge", which is in development at present. Also, was offered a wee acting part which Im really lookin forward to. I write in many styles including; country, country-blues, soul, Motown, rock, dance, disco, house/rave, jazz-swing, pop, Celtic and comedy. Coast-To-Coast Music was set up after being contacted about supplying songs and doing the soundtrack for this movie and, with an awful lot of hard work and luck, Im hoping to develop this company into an internationally recognized name. We are actively seeking an established, major artist/s to cover the 2 main country tracks which are to feature in several scenes as well as inclusion on the soundtrack. Both are uploaded here for appraisal - one in several versions. Contact me at: Coast_To_Coast_Music@hotmail.com if you meet this criteria and wish to discuss things further. My dad; Robert Leggat, does the basic Hank Williams-type arrangement of "Honky Tonkin" and Im sure a great many people, who have an ear for a real country-soul voice, will get a great deal out of his unique and heart-felt vocal performance which, Im delighted to say, is to be included on the movie soundtrack. Ok, folks, thats me for now...anything you want to know - just ask by e-mailing me at the enclosed address. Best wishes from Scotland, Stuart Leggat

Story behind the song
Sitting alone at home one evening while my so-called partner/loved-one was out partying...the first verse and melody suddenly started playing in my head and I went over it time and time again, not realising at the time, that this would be my first attempt at songwriting. Have done several very different versions of it and have also blown some definite chances to have it put out with me singing it as part of a duet or covered by a major artist. So glad to say, the duet versions been picked to be played over the end credits of the movie Im involved with. However, if I can interest a major act to do an up-to-the-minute version of it, they can.
Lyrics
"Get Out (Have Yourself A Good Time)" When the night closes in and you need somebody Theres only one thing that ah want you to do When the night closes in...you need somebody Theres just one little thing that youve gotta try an do So dont be no fool, dont play it cool, let me tell you why Dont sit at home or be alone an cry, cry, cry, cry... Dont sit at home, dont be a martyre The one that you love is being untrue Lies and deceit will be their second nature Get up, get ready, this is what you gotta do Get out...and have yourself a good time Find someone to help you chase away your blues Get out...and have yourself a good time Find someone to help you make your dreams come true Free your soul, loose control, get it on through the night Dont wait around, get on the town Youve only got one life... Solo Your babys used you and abused you, hurt and confused you How much more can your mind and body take Ah said theyll lie, criticise, try to undermind Dont wait around, get on the town Youve only got one life - only got one life... Go down for a third time, it will surely be your last time Like ah drownin man doing all you can to keep yourself alive Look along the tunnel, see that distant light? If you pull yourself towards it, everythings gonna be alright Get out...have yourself a good time Find someone to help you chase away your blues Get out... have yourself a good time Find someone to help you make your dreams come true Get Out... Can I have this dance? Whats your name, boy...ah feel the same, boy... Can ah walk you home, will we be alone? You can stay the night, boy - if you do it right, boy...
