Hello from this late and rainy night, my fine lovers.
I've been travelling and I've been moving and changing and finding new roads to run on. This song, “Just Because You Want it All” (the 2nd release in this year's “Tiny Crooked Orchestra” project), goes some way to expressing that. As much as it's about relationships (aren't they all), it's also about change and the fear that in our inertia the cosmic trickster, fate, dressed in its finery and top-hat, may dance through the sideshows and distractions that whiz and bang significantly around our lives and waltz past before saving us from the horrors of sleeping alone. I feel the song represents a lot of what this project will be about. Because, in the end, its a project that will map the changes in my expression through the year as I write and record songs. Perhaps also the changes in my thought process and sanity as my brain space starts to diminish more seriously

Even though it was the second cab off the ranks, it was the 1st song I wrote and started recording. I just didn't quite get it finished in time to be first release. But I made a lot of the production decisions that will mark (and perhaps mar) the first few in this project based on it; including the minimal instrumentation, stacked voices and thumpy percussion (mostly on the body of my poor violated Gibson Bluesking acoustic guitar, named 'Delilah', who I fear may nightly cry her abused self to sleep in her fuzzy purple hard case).

At least next time, Delilah may be caressed more sensually. I'm working on a 'Valentines Day Special' for my next release. I'm no Barry White but I'll give it a red hot go

Anyway, I hope you like Just Because You Want it All. As with the 1st song, I'm selling the download for pay-what-you-want with a $1 minimum. Or I'll email you the song for free if you email the link to the song on bandcamp to 3 more people (and then add my email, info@fronzarp.com, to the address bar so that I know you've done it)

Til next time lovers xxx
