My greatest hit. This song has been around the world and back on YouTube, but I didn't include it on This Is Not An Album (mostly because I was sick of hearing it). I've since learned to love it again, and it's still great fun to play when everyone sings along with the chorus. And the "rubbish" line.
In case you're sick of hearing it I'm putting it at the end of the album. That way you can stop listening now without leaving some poor orphaned tracks languishing unheard after it.
lyrics
You're no one if you're not on Twitter
And if you aren't there already you've missed it
If you haven't been bookmarked, retweeted and blogged
You might as well not have existed
In the old days it was all about achievements
Collecting all your trophies in a shrine
Then everybody came across the internet
And suddenly you had to be online
A home page was all you really needed
To seem like a success but not a geek
As long as you updated semi-annually
And checked your email once or twice a week
You're no one if you're not on Twitter
And if you aren't there already you've missed it
If you haven't been bookmarked, retweeted and blogged
You might as well not have existed
Technology was moving rather quickly
And the next thing you needed was a blog
With intimate and detailed press releases
And now and then a photo of your dog
More recently the students brought us Facebook
And everybody has a hundred friends
The parties in the photos look amazing
They're not so great but everyone pretends
You're no one if you're not on Twitter
And if you aren't there already you've missed it
If you haven't been bookmarked, retweeted and blogged
You might as well not have existed
Now you need to publish every movement
And every single thought to cross your mind
I'm told the Twitterverse is full of rubbish
But most of us are actually quite refined
We validate each other's insecurities
And brag about the gadgets that we've bought
We laugh out loud at every hint of jolliness
And try to self-promote without being caught
You're no one if you're not on Twitter
And if you aren't there already you've missed it
If you haven't been bookmarked, retweeted and blogged
You might as well not have existed

I'm not your Candy Girl!
It's no secret I LOVE this band and the music they are making now feels so special to me.
Garage Recordings 01 and 02 are both incredible and when you put them together you get what would be an album full of incredibleness, all done on their own terms. FRalph1976

This track was more of an experiment than anything. We don't have much gear in our garage and so trying to record a real pop song with one SM57, the arm of a deck chair and a box of nails can be quite challenging. Luckily though we picked up a harmonium from a car boot sale for 30quid. We also bought a wacky autotune pedal from the internet and deliberately manned up the autotune. Irony and sincerity. Our friends Dark Furs and BCATG have remixed the track. Buy their music too. :-) Juju Sophie
