lyrics
Sunday halo
Berlin, Munich, Brussels, Bonn, men and women's voices all rapping on and on
London, Stuttgart, Luxembourg, Rome, another Sunday halo rapping on and on
Chorus
Another Sunday halo, rapping on my door
Another Sunday halo, rapping on my door
I hear the valves all warming up, feel it’s vibration hear it’s hum
This box of magic drives me wide, it’s Sunday halo rapping on
Chorus
Like a big old zeppelin it sits, almost filling our tiny living room
If only I knew how to work it myself, so I could listen to the spies speak in foreign tongue
My mother she hoovers up marbles, I can see her through my legs as I listen to the hum
Chorus
Why doesn't she clean it? why does she keep it’s big lid down?
Why can’t I hear it for the hoover? Why does she stand the goldfish on?
Berlin, Munich, Brussels, Bonn, men and women'sʼ voices all rapping on and on
London, Stuttgart, Luxembourg, Rome, another Sunday halo rapping on and on
I want to see inside this big entertainment ship!

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
I love the deceptive simplicity of so many of Boo's songs. A master craftsman at songwriting. I bought the album even though I already have most the songs...because he deserves to be recognised. And he is funny. helenflunder
Well gosh, Boo. That really is an album!
The first time through was wonder and delight. Now it’s just a matter of installing it into my DNA. And so repeat play is engaged. You’ve done it again! warren wigutow
