Glam Rock for the Future, Power Pop for Progessives, Martinis at 5:00.
We are the trans-Atlantic alliance of Bob Kingdon, from England and Eric Daum from New England. We are a virtual band inspired by the music of Bill Nelson, Power Pop and girls in short skirts and tight shirts. Bob handles the guitars, Eric, the keyboards, loops and programming as well as dabbling with his ancient Rickenbacker on a few songs. Both Bob and Eric sing and share songwriting. In addition, we sometimes set the poems of Carole Young, a Scottish poet to music.

Lyrics
Splendid Little War Eric Daum 2010 I can't understand what you see in him If you really saw anything in me One is grace and the other sin In your personal Theology Once again I face the stress Of another suitor at your door Like a fleet that's in distress We're drifting towards a rocky shore I am just the pawn For the game you have in store The battle lines are drawn For this splendid little war You say you love me more or less I don't believe that less is more You tell me that I must confess That's an edict that I can't ignore I must exorcise your curse Not sure how much I can endure I don't know which is worse The symptom or the cure I am just the pawn For the game you have in store The battle lines are drawn For this splendid little war Somehow I got it wrong Yet you're the one I still adore The velvet blinds are drawn You're a splendid little whore
