Abbey Road Studios

I can't believe this happened, I really can't! After I returned from a disastrous Duke of Edinburgh expedition, my dad told me he was going to London. The next day, we got a phone call:
"Hey Beth, I'm in Abbey Road studios right now for that guitar thing and so is John Simm and Coldplay!"
My dad writes for a guitar magazine, Acoustic , in his spare time. He does guitar reviews and stuff and if you've read it before, you've probably come across one of his articles.
Anyway, I was completely gutted I didn't get to go! It was an "Invitation Only" kind of event and only 40 people (including dad) could go. And he couldn't get anybodies autographs either as it would have seemed annoying.
I don't think anybody believed me though. I guess they were thinking "she wishes!" as there are a lot of "musicians" I know who think that they are the next big thing and if anybodies dad was going to be going to a guitar convention at Abbey Road Studios it would be theirs! Its just nice to know that I am connected with that big world of musicians....

Neopolitan Dreams

This was the first good song I found on an advert. I remember it very clearly. I was twelve and a washing powder advert came on the TV. I was more interested in the music in the background than the woman's extra white sheets. I thought it was a lovely song and it irritated me that I didn't know what it was. The next time it came on I memorised some of the lyrics, wrote them down and later Googled them. I clicked on "videos" and the song came up straight away. I have been obsessed ever since. I tried to find the music video as it is as quirky as Lisa Mitchel's voice but I couldn't. Try and YouTube it later. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

I fianlly found it!

After weeks of searching Google and YouTube, having to listen to crappy 90s ballads and odd rap songs I have finally found the song I've been looking for! This is another song from an advert and I am obsessed! I don't know why...I think its the piano that did it for me or possibly the "badabaaaa badabaaaa"s in the middle of it. It is such a happy song and whenever I listen to it, I see myself skipping down the street with a Costa coffee and a baggy beanie or cartwheeling in a remote meadow in a floral playsuit. Just listen it deserves appreciation!
