Amateur one man band form Maastricht, the Netherlands.
Yet another amateur one man band. I started composing and writing at the age of 13. I started off playing electronic organ, later acoustic, electric and bass guitars. Played in a few local rock bands, but for some reason I was never really happy about the way things went. So at the age of 18 I decided to become a one man band. In 1982 I released my first official audio cassette tape "The truth UR afraid of". Followed by each year two more cassettes. In 1992 I threw my instruments into the closet and started using so called "Tracker editors", making me able to use "any instrument" I could ever dream of. Meaning my sound dramatically changed trough the years. These days I hardly release new CD's (mostly one a year). However I don't create every week another new song, as I did before. I keep on ticking.... More information on Tracker Editors in this Wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracker_%28music_software%29

Story behind the song
Up until the final release of Ubuntu 11.04 I was unable to get (the controversial) Unity to work on any of my machines. And since it's working I Love it. This song is for everyone who, like me Loves Canonical's Unity - spread the word -
Lyrics
The introduction is a snippet of a interview with Sadfl (also known as Mark Shuttleworth, founder of Canonical and the Ubuntu project). In the second verse, there is a quote, made with Gespeaker: [quote] Unity is exciting for a number of reasons. It’s the landmark effort for involving design and user testing from the beginning of the development process all the way through. It represents a new level of polish and usability for the Free Desktop. But it’s also the first time that Ubuntu users have been asked to change the basic configuration of their desktops. It’s a big ask. We hope to delight them with the change... Ted Gould of Canonical LTD. [/quote]
