Lyrics

One in Million Die Tonight
One in Million Cry
One in a Million will Starve Tonight
One in a Million Lie

But I Don't Really Care That Much
It's Not Really My Problem
I Wish They'd All Go Away

One in Million had a Thought
One in Million Try
One in a Million Can't be Taught
One in a Million Sigh

But I Don't Really Care That Much
It's Not Really My Problem
I Wish They'd All Go Away
No No No No No No No No
No No No No No No No No

One in Million On Their Own
One in Million Rage
One in a Million Overthrown
One in a Million in a Cage

And I Don't Really Care That Much
It's Not Really My Problem
I Wish That They'd Go Away
No No No No No No No No
No No No No No No No No

	Good tune Len! We all must do whatever is in our power to help others. But most would rather the Almighty State would take care of the problem so that we can pursue our self-destructive lives unabated and with a clean conscience. Good presentation of a dilemma which simply won't go away and for which there are no easy answers. Well arranged and well sung. Take care man!

	Shawn somefin The drunken way of singing hit the spot, shwan somefin did that all the time;-). It gives it a cynical, perhaps satirical feel. Together with that guitar and slow drumming. Cool song, especially your voice, that is one awesome voice! To me, the delivery and colour resembles Alan Vega to a high degree! Jb

lengold	lengold said 747 days ago (October 24th, 2007)
	Continued support Thanks Jb for your continued support - I hope you are feeling revitalised. Never heard of Alan Vega - just had a quick search and saw he was in a band called Suicide - nice and cheerful - must have a listen. Cheers Len Check out my latest song called Dodgy Doughnut

There can't be anything wrong with this...
No no nono nono nonohhhhh...

Everything's off on this one and somehow, that makes everything on... Pretty clever stuff, Len. And dare I say, that it's actually leaning heavy on the side of brilliance.

Everybody's been here at one time or another - It takes a brave soul to announce it so bodley! But how else could it be presented and be pulled off so well...

Don't know that it could have.

No no nono nono nonohhhhh...

Thanks for coloring me smile! Macca

	The BEATS ! The most perfect in this song is the drums. The drums really impressive and well done here. The vocal is always enjoyable .. you create your own style ! Great Moving Piece .. Take Care ============== Yeman Auf Al-Rawi

lengold	lengold said 746 days ago (October 25th, 2007)

	As has been said already by Feter, "you have your own Genre"......and with your own inimitable 'different' style.... highly original and great backing sounds supporting this 'reverse mentality' style of lyrics, descriptive of those who plod selfishly through life, cheers M Check out my latest song called A Soldiers Dream (Remix/record)

Vic Holman	Vic Holman said 747 days ago (October 24th, 2007)
	staggering in a lot of ways. my first impression was a cool Tom Waits style of tune. I noticed Philip caught that as well. Maybe a fifth of whiskey and a pack of smokes to get the gravelly voice. ha! Cool tune Len, really enjoyed it! Check out my latest song called One Step Over The Line

lengold	lengold said 746 days ago (October 25th, 2007)
	A life full of smokes - but gave up two years ago - still fancy a cigarette now though. Really appreciate your comments as always Vic. Cheers Len Check out my latest song called Dodgy Doughnut

bud	bud said 745 days ago (October 26th, 2007)
	Staggering work I hear The Residents in this dark ditty - especially in the synth break in the middle - also Tuxedomoon. This has a very 80's weirdo San Francisco vibe - a very good thing in my book. Check out my latest song called Expanding Toys (Halloween Remix)

lengold	lengold said 745 days ago (October 26th, 2007)
	And... another two bands I've never heard of to look up. Thanks Bud - I always appreciate your comments and I am pleased you enjoyed it. Cheers Len Check out my latest song called Dodgy Doughnut

perceptualvortex	perceptualvortex said 745 days ago (October 26th, 2007)
	Originality Yeah, what they say is true, you really have a unique song style. I'm reminded of the jangly sparseness of Tom Waits. I like the 3 note keyboard solo a lot. In terms of tone, this has a lot in common with a plodding T-Rex, but one with style. Cool stuff, lengold. Check out my latest song called Machine Man (w Beastie Boys)

	Fantastic I noticed you posted a new song, not by the e-mail alert but by the picture/avatar. Some of the best things happen when they are not planned, I have had many a good nights out which were suppose to be nights in. Anyway this track has some real meaning in it and it is well composed, and great combination. Well done Check out my latest song called Space Program (Space Race 2009)

	Unique. The song was very seductive to me as the listener. At first I didn't know what to make of it and then at the "piano" solo I was hooked. It just pulled me in. You have a very original sound. Favin' and you got youself a fan. Thanks for sharing. Great job! Chris

I love the mood of this...it packs a whallup and brings the lyrics home..., a great listen!!!!!!!! Respectfully, Wade
