If I Ever Met Dolly

I Can't Play My Songs On The Smaller Harp. I Have A Celtic Harp. I Can't Do The Key Changes.

I Wanted To Write Songs Which I Think Is A Different Thing. I Wanted To Write Music That Is Informed By Folk Music. The Chord Progressions Are Obvious References.

I Wasn't Born Of A Whistle Or Milked From A Thistle At Twilight No I Was All Horns And Thorns Sprung Out Fully Formed, Knock-kneed And Upright.

I Definitely Don't Subscribe To The Theory That More Instruments, Or More Vocal Tracks, Harmony, Or Double Tracking The Voice, Is A Good Thing. People Do Their Early Albums Very Stripped Down, Then Each Album Becomes Bloated.

And A Thimble's Worth Of Milky Moon Can Touch Hearts Larger Than A Thimble.
