Apples in Stereo are responsible for one of my favourite tracks of all time. Not high brow in musical circles, its jangle makes me happy. I wanted to post it for my TUUNES on Tuesday before I was overcome with disappointment at how-less-than-clear the wonder of the track is... in this version.
Saturday you woke me up from a dream
Torn out of the pages of a magazine
You got to play tough, my love
You got to play cool
You got to play tough, my love
When you play me for a fool
(When you play me for a...)
Saturday you woke me up into a drag
Peaches in the creases of a plastic bag
Torn out of the pages of a magazine
You got to play tough, my love
You got to play cool
You got to play tough, my love
When you play me for a fool
(When you play me for a...)
Saturday you woke me up into a drag
Peaches in the creases of a plastic bag
Lyrics to lap up!
However, back to editing. Press play on the track below. It is the band singing live. You can almost hear what a brilliant song it is, a perfect harmony of lyric, tune and voice BUT look up the track as it appears on the album New Magnetic Wonder. This version is not available on Youtube and I can't make it appear here by willpower alone, which is a shame - it was the last version of 'How To' I tried last night.
Please look up the tune, it is superlatively good ;) SPOTIFY will help you out. I made a link to my playlist of one track. It was the best I could do.

The gem of an amazing song is here in this version - with a little polish (as an analogy of editing for the novel) - the true genius of this track would be able to shine through.
I have 2000 words left to write 9/10 mostly all dénouement and no action: I have to write it so I can cut it out later ;)
How is your writing going?
