about

For my dear cousin Michael Piggott
Written on the morning of his passing where I woke up in tears and feeling gut pain, I found out within the hour he had gone
RIP Mike xxx

lyrics

I Cried 4 U
Though I’d only met you three times in my life
It felt like I’d known you so long
Though you were only nineteen and I was a child
I could see that your soul was strong

Didn’t reconnect for many a year
Till both our mothers were gone
But got the chance to get to know teacher
For time it makes a good soul strong

I cried for you, I cried for you
Yes I cried for you, I cried for you

What a gift to know you pal, no matter how short or sweet
For good connection is everything, a precious gift the soul can keep

I cried for you, I cried for you
Yes I cried for you, I cried for youI

For my cousin Michael RIP

Written: Martin Stephenson

Guillemot Days
by Anna Lavigne

supported by 28 fans who also own “I Cried For You”

Guillemot Days whisks us to a glistening shoreline, awash with 10 sublime songs full of serene hope. Compelling right from the buoyant opener Edge Of The World and Butterfly overflows with soaring, twangy sunshine. For a fave, so close with the lush vocals, melodic layers of Flowers Of Hope versus Peace And Plenty: an intriguing, modern parlour song both eerie and exquisite, voices and clarinet blending into something quite special. This album is a musical lighthouse on a dark day. Unmissable. anitajoyce

Bloody Noses EP
by Richard Thompson

supported by 15 fans who also own “I Cried For You”

John Drumbo French from Captain Beefheart and The Magic Band worked with Thompson on two albums along with Fred Frith and Henry Kaiser. Those two French, Frith, Kaiser and Thompson albums led me to this. Also, Richard Thompson taught Hugh Cornwell (of The Stranglers) how to play the bass guitar in a band when they were both at the same school (Emil and The Detectives?). With a career spanning 50 years and playing with two of my heroes (French and Cornwell) Thompson has produced a fascinating EP. yellowcakeuf6
