Straight up pop song about trying to find a good birthday present for someone. Sounds boring? Yeah, I know.

Mostly acoustic, genre's attempted include: Folk, Blues, Rock, Funk, Jazz, Pop, comedy Usually a mix of all that stuff.
The deal with soundclick is that I really use it more as an archive these days than any sort of promotional tool - i.e. it's not updated anywhere near as often, I don't really log in much either. so if you wish to communicate or for more action though you should head to myspace: www.myspace.com/hotshackett Yeah. I have finished an E.P, you can hear most of it over there at myspace or the whole thing at mp3.com.au/scotthackett . Might put it here eventually.

Story behind the song
It's really not the slightest bit cryptic.... Side note: First song recorded on my new system - I made it crash four times!
Lyrics
February is here again, And this time I'm well aware, But not so well prepared, For your birthday coming up. Eighteen days to figure out what I can get that you might like, And at the same time be surprised, It's not a compact disc again. I know you don't expect much But I wanna spoil you if I can, You say it's the thought that counts, Well I'll be thinkin hard this year I wish you'd give a little hint So I might know where to start, Looking for something you desire But would not ask for. You won't give me any clues, 'cos you like to be surprised, But just try and hide your disappointment When I give you socks. I know you don't expect much But I wanna spoil you if I can, You say it's the thought that counts, Well I'll be thinkin hard this year I've got a poor track record, When it comes to birthday gifts, It's not from lack of effort, Let me assure you of this. I'm not completely clueless, I know something you might like, But I can't afford a grand piano (and you'd have nowhere to put it). I wish I had more money, I'd buy you an election, So you could make opera manditory in public education. I know you don't expect much But I wanna spoil you if I can, You say it's the thought that counts, Well it might be all you get this year... I know you don't expect much But I wanna spoil you if I can, You say it's the thought that counts, I'll be thinkin hard this year
