Description:
At last, after years of searching, this lost demo track has finally been found... Perhaps, if the album gets re-mastered, Warner/Rhino might include it - but for now it's posted here for your enjoyment!

Er ... &mdash 12/01/07 - 10:38:07 AM
Thanks Rebsie &mdash 12/01/07 - 11:06:38 AM
I'm afraid I don't do accents but there are a couple of clues in the lyrics...
Peter [ Reply to This ]
Ah, got the lyric clues now! &mdash 12/01/07 - 12:54:18 PM
Actually, now that others have said it ... I did think of REM when I first listened (got the jangly arpeggio guitar) but didn't want to mention it in case I looked stupid. D'oh! [ Reply to This ]
now this totally wrong &mdash 12/01/07 - 10:58:59 AM
al stewart...naw.....got me peter but will keep listening..anyroad is a great track [ Reply to This ]
HaHaHa &mdash 12/01/07 - 11:03:28 AM
but then again &mdash 12/01/07 - 06:02:27 PM
don't laugh at my guess &mdash 12/01/07 - 11:49:37 AM
Oh... &mdash 12/01/07 - 12:21:39 PM
Wasn't that Peter Noone? Didn't they do a song called 'Something's Happening'? I'm sure I had the single...
Peter [ Reply to This ]
mmmm &mdash 12/01/07 - 12:16:07 PM
I would hazard a guess at REM? Not sure what album though....Reckoning?
Nice jangle!

Hey Steve &mdash 12/01/07 - 12:18:34 PM
I'll definitely be back to refine my comment &mdash 12/01/07 - 12:23:48 PM
This is a great track. I'm gonna take a stab at Fleetwood Mac - this is a song about Stevie Nicks. Not sure which album though. [ Reply to This ]
Great song &mdash 12/01/07 - 12:33:47 PM
I'm thinking REM's Document or Out of Time. Mostly from the jangle guitars and chord progression.
Real nice song Peter [ Reply to This ]
Today &mdash 12/01/07 - 12:58:22 PM
Man its so cool and lovely .sure no suddenly
the memory all shut down ,but I bet I know this
band so much .welldone y friend .its wonderfull ! [ Reply to This ]
Well... &mdash 12/01/07 - 01:27:51 PM
I get the Out of Time reference now &mdash 12/01/07 - 02:43:08 PM
and the REM jangle and keyboard - but I'm still not sure. Did enjoy another listen though. [ Reply to This ]
Wow... &mdash 12/01/07 - 03:26:55 PM
If this is not from REM's "Out Of Time" it damn well should be!
Good job Peter! I dig that jangly guitar, the burbly organ and, as always, your wonderful vox.
Be well friend! [ Reply to This ]
Sweet! &mdash 12/01/07 - 03:58:28 PM
Lovely work Peter! I have to concur with the growing consensus as to the band. Very well conceived and laid down.
Cheers,
Doug [ Reply to This ]
Ok..ok... &mdash 12/01/07 - 05:45:37 PM
I've heard three or four REM songs in my life, and I'll agree this sounds like 'em :)
(ooooh. It helps to listen to these later after others have commented ;)
This is a terrific track, Peter! Love your voice on this as well...and well...I'm a sucker for jangly guitars.
Thanks for sharing :) [ Reply to This ]
Thanks &mdash 12/11/07 - 04:48:22 PM
well actually... &mdash 12/11/07 - 04:51:08 PM
that's a thumbs-up BTW. And the p is nowhere near the b on the keyboard! [ Reply to This ]
No clue... &mdash 12/01/07 - 07:54:28 PM
But I like what you've got here- nice track! I've really enjoyed listening to the entries in this contest. [ Reply to This ]
have to agree with REM... &mdash 12/02/07 - 01:10:11 AM
Nice Track &mdash 12/02/07 - 09:18:27 AM
Just to be different 'The Lightning Seeds'. But it might be REM, although I am not too solid with that idea.
Good track thats been well composed. Its a very nice track to listen to. Cool track.
(Is it Mamas and Papas on the Califonia Dreamin' album) [ Reply to This ]
I'd love it &mdash 12/02/07 - 10:56:59 AM
to be Mamas and Papas - but it's not. Lightning Seeds is an interesting one - I'm sure I've had that comparison made before... Thanks for listening.
Peter [ Reply to This ]
hmm &mdash 12/02/07 - 09:30:36 AM
I do like &mdash 12/02/07 - 10:59:47 AM
I have no &mdash 12/02/07 - 10:44:52 AM
Love this &mdash 12/02/07 - 01:15:39 PM
song and the sound Peter, whoever it is, but it could be a few contenders from the 60's or 70's. Doesn't matter though, cause it's so good anyway, cheers M [ Reply to This ]
Blimey I'm boring &mdash 12/02/07 - 04:11:06 PM
Peter Noone! &mdash 12/03/07 - 08:17:45 AM
Surely! Peter Noone! Right? Right?
Okay... Peter Noone joined REM, right? That's what happened! Peter Noone joined REM and this is the only song that was ever recorded, and then the band got into a dispute about playing "Henry VIII I Am" on tour, and the team-up disintegrated, lost to history until today. I like it. I like it!
I'm so wrong.... but it makes such a wonderfully crazy story, I'll put my beer on Peter Noone. [ Reply to This ]
I'm going &mdash 12/03/07 - 09:05:32 AM
to have to search for some Peter Noone recordings - He did a version of Bowie's 'Oh You Pretty Things' but apart from that, and the Herman Hermits song I mentioned earler, I know very little... Sounds like an interesting collaboration!
Peter [ Reply to This ]
peter &mdash 12/04/07 - 09:18:46 AM
one more stop by to tell u how great this tune is...very nice...very nice
so al stewart meets the hermits in rehab and they all get rem as sponsers [ Reply to This ]
Thank you &mdash 12/05/07 - 03:17:52 PM
for coming back... I don't think that's quite the sound I was going for but...
Peter [ Reply to This ]
Hi Peter... &mdash 12/06/07 - 12:27:15 AM
This is great
My guesses would include the db's or Robin Hitchcock, but I can't guess specific albums

fantastic &mdash 12/07/07 - 03:01:58 PM
I love the chorus. I've listened four times now - Great touch on the organ. I'll be downloading this, thank you. :-) [ Reply to This ]
Thanks &mdash 12/08/07 - 07:14:11 AM
Wow &mdash 12/09/07 - 08:02:35 AM
Peter, This is a great song!!!! I love happy, jangly, pop songs. Remember the one-hit wonder group The La's...sounds kind of like that to me. [ Reply to This ]
Could have sworn &mdash 12/10/07 - 10:07:08 PM
I'd already commented on this. I guess I just listened! Very nice track. Someone somewhere mentioned the La's, and it does have that kind of sound for me. Very nice jangly guitar throughout. I especially like organ/keyboard, and the lyrics. "So many think you're crazy - I tend to agree" - that's a great line. The picture you paint is real and touching. I like the backing vocals near the end - very REMish. Great track overall. Nice work. Peace. [ Reply to This ]
Thanks David &mdash 12/11/07 - 02:33:41 AM
Glad this sounds very REMish... The vocals (and mix) were both done in a bit of a hurry, so I'm pleased it's come out OK. The backing vocals at the end were meant to be a clue as to which album this is from. When mastering this I was flicking between the album this track is supposed to be missing from to try to get a similar sound. Thanks for dropping by.

Iron Maiden! &mdash 12/28/07 - 07:23:20 AM
.. nah, just pulling your leg. Got to be REM "out of time" but that northern England delivery, does give it that Lightning Seeds effect, with a tiny hint of Billy Bragg :o) Nice song, enjoyed it. (I liked the Lightning Seeds and the odd BB song too). [ Reply to This ]
Don't think &mdash 12/28/07 - 05:29:54 PM
I'd know where to begin doing Iron Maiden! I wasn't going to attempt an American accent so I just tried to make the lyrics more American instead. I really enjoyed doing this LSP - although it was all a bit of a rush. Thanks for dropping by.
Peter [ Reply to This ]
I don't know how to find the answer &mdash 01/05/08 - 06:28:58 AM
Sorry I miss this. Roy Orbison comes to mind. Travelling Willburys, maybe.
Love this.
Dave [ Reply to This ]
I do like &mdash 01/05/08 - 06:29:30 PM
the idea of Roy Orbison!
Anyway, the answer to this and the other Lost Song Project songs can be found under Lost and Found. All of which are well worth checking out when you have a moment.
Thanks for dropping by.

Nice &mdash 02/15/08 - 04:29:08 AM
Well constructed pop song, everythings in the right place . Nice guitar work, good song. [ Reply to This ]
Great! &mdash 03/03/08 - 03:44:01 PM
A great song by all means, this get me .. Your singing at its best and the playing is great and skilled ... I LOVE YOUR STYLE VERY MUCH!
Am I right that your vocal has something from Mark Knopfler ?! Don't know but Poppies sounded like him.
Thanks a lot for sharing this ...
Take Care

You know everytime I hear you sing -you keep reminding me of some famous singer I swear you sound just like him - but still cannot think who.
Maybe you just sound like you should be :) I too love your style of music
your voice is really clear -catchy tune and you always pull it off.
I love your guitar - everything Peter you are a real delight to listen too
i think your fantastic I realy do :) Brillant Singer and song writer all in one.
Thanks for sharing your fantastic music. I really appreciate this.
Peace Dee xx [ Reply to This ]
Dee... &mdash 04/05/08 - 05:01:15 PM
...I don't know what to say except a very big thank you for your very kind words. I've been struggling a recently with writing - and have been trying to get my head around using Garageband and loops and such. The house has been in a real mess with decorating (which seems endless) and I haven't really had anywhere to record but I'm get it sorted - slowly.
Thanks again

perfect slice &mdash 04/18/08 - 09:28:00 AM
Perfect slice of nostalgia for that album I never bought; a time I lived but never appreciated; a road trip I took many times but can't remember the route. So well done I can't say more without drooling over it on my keyboard. [ Reply to This ]
