Better Off This Way ♫

| Hannah Sterry

This is a very old recording and unfinished, but I thought I’d post it anyway. Hope you like it!

Lyrics:
It’s been a heavy day
There’s something on my mind
You can’t just blame me for
The feelings you can’t find

The past is the past
Let’s keep it that way
My life’s getting better and I’ve got to say
I don’t miss you – we’re both better off this way.

It’s not that I dislike you I think you’re just fine
I wish you could be happier more of the time
Life isn’t perfect and life isn’t fair
You play your cards however you dare…

Flamingo Gymnastics

Drawing animals doing ridiculous things keeps me amused, so here’s a flamingo doing the splits.

Silly  Methods of Musical Transport:

  1. Boat Bass

    Paddling to a gig in a fibreglass double bass. Apparently someone used to make fibreglass double basses in Salcombe, and they were perfectly fine if you used the body of the bass as a boat.

  2. Walking/Weightlifting

    Walking back from a gig with a very, very heavy keyboard because me and H had missed the last bus home and the taxi companies weren’t answering!

  3. Gigs on Transport!

    I have played a few jazz gigs on a ferry. We had to connect the keyboard up to a car battery for power and it was strange playing at any tempo that didn’t match the whirring of the engine, but it worked.
