Acoustic/Electric Original Songwriting Powerpop Indie Folk Rock
Formed in August 2007, the No Time Wasters are a twin-engined Premium Strength Powerpop band built on the core of the classic Songwriting skills of Jon Delaney (of Electroacoustic Song & Bass Duo Cloudy) and Jim Mooney (of postmodernist dark rock-pop The Dark Corners). Jon and Jim have been songwriting partners and sometimes bandmates since their teens. Now completed by the versatile rhythm section of Al Sutcliffe on bass and vocals and Paul Creedy on drums and percussion, The No Time Wasters have gigged constantly around the midlands, (including Coventry University) and the east of england throughout 2008, winning over hearts and minds as they go. They have received BBC and Independent Radio play and will be recording their debut album around Xmas.

Story behind the song
A jaunty little number about losing love... written as it was first recorded back in 2005... subsequently a staple of Cloudy's live sets - no reinterpreted by The No Time Wasters
Lyrics
“Red Sky” words and music by JAG Delaney © 2005 Verse 1 She leaves you without warning Red Sky in the morning And the rain keeps on pouring Chorus 1 Like Another Cup of Coffee? Well its your wake up call You were too busy sleeping she was talking to the wall Verse 2 Never saw her falling Red Sky in the Morning Out of your arms into another’s Chorus 2 Sorry to alarm you but you had your wake –up call I Couldn’t rise to answer now you’re talking to the wall Sorry to alarm you you had your wake –up call I Couldn’t rise to answer now you’re talking to the wall Bridge Of silence oh you’ll learn to love it And if you don’t or if you won’t maybe then you’ll rise above it …… Verse 3 Like a white cloud on a blue horizon Or this red sky when she’s long gone And I thought I , was the strong one? Chorus 3 You and whose army I had my wake up call Couldn’t rise to answer now I’m talking to the wall You and who’s army I had my wake up call Couldn’t rise to answer now I’m talking to the Break (as per verse) wall Red Sky in the Morning Some warning Part Instrumental Chorus to Finish Sha Na Na nah…etc Look at that Look at that baby look at that Red Red Sky You were too busy sleeping now you’re talking to the wall
