about

Sometimes a CD comes along that takes you by surprise and within seconds you get a lovely warm toasty feeling listening to the music.

Now usually I get this feeling when I turn to a song or an album that I've known for ages,the ever faithful stand by from a classic artist that you turn to in moments of need(mine is usually Nick Drake),pressing play on the CD player or on the pc and instantly you are transported to a good feeling,a mood changer be it raising you up or down from where you are at that point in time.

I was so pleasantly surprised to get that feeling with this CD-from the get go it took me into a real good mood.

The songs have a wonderful range of styles that are interlinked by the special voice of Frank Joshua.
'Rain' is a special heart shaped song that burns like a toasty warm fire,'Bluebell Wood' offers smart electronic noodlings to a real builder of a song.
'Kiss' is a gentle folk song in a a singer/songwriter mode which reminds me of Richard Hawley.
'Cry blue' is a pop song the likes of which haven't been as well delivered since Prefab Sprout were in their pomp.
'Mad about you' is a shimmering pop song with the lovely glow I am starting to expect from Frank Joshua.
The final track 'Kiss' see's Frank in a duet with an unknown(to me) female singer and this version adds a nice alternative take on the previous version.

All in all,this is a wonderfully warm and brilliantly delivered CD.
If you like artists like Prefab Sprout and Richard Hawley and the lesser know but not lesser talented Cleemann and Dan Whitehouse; you will love this.
It really took me by surprise and I really like surprises like this one.
Highly recommended:-)).

Track Name: Rain
I take emptiness in, take all that’s left
take hold of my heart, study it’s parts
I take hold of a wish let the emptiness in and I
came by your window tonight and I can’t stop the pouring of the rain.

I leave love in your path, as the gut feelings start
take leave of this sense while I gather my heart
alone in the dark only sheltered in part and I
came by your window tonight and I can’t stop the rain and I
came by your window tonight and I can’t

stop the rain.

I long to believe my innocent eye, my conscience is lost and I don’t know why
I lost and trailed you through all of the night, I loved and need you with all of my might and I

came by your window tonight and I can’t stop the pouring of the rain, I
came by your window tonight and I can’t

stop the rain.
Track Name: Bluebell Wood
So if I asked and really meant it.
Not that I wouldn’t but not that I do.
And if I said it like I wasn’t joking
Jokes apart, what would you do

Just suppose you do the asking
Just for a laugh but not for fun
And if you said it like you really meant it
What would I do, not that I’m jumping the gun

We could talk about the weather
Pretend we hadn’t heard
Talk about the nicest things,
the nicest things that might not get us hurt,

Like, Kissing on a mountain top, Skipping down to bluebell Wood
I saw you, flowers in your hair
Laid open to a clear blue sky, holding close as clouds go by
I wonder, Is bluebell wood really there.

Guess we got most of what we asked for
Guess we got more than most
More than enough might be too greedy
So maybe not to ask is best
Track Name: Kiss
You hurt me and you're beautiful and but for this would I resist
your eloquence and painful smile cajoling me to rest in bliss
you take from me serenity,
you rob me of my sanity
and I am but the weakest man
and kneel before your goddess hand
you hurt me and you're beautiful and but for this would I resist your kiss.

Your concept eyes reflecting blue reminding me of me in you
disruption of a peaceful sky by satellites that trail you hair
don't take from me my dignity
don't twist the knife so tenderly
and I will leave my face I'll hide
returned to you a proper pride
you hurt me and you're beautiful and but for this would I resist your kiss.

While I depart
to mend my heart
within the eyes the tears remain
but deep inside they fall like snow

you hurt me and you're beautiful and but for this would I resist your kiss.
Track Name: Cry Blue
And this beast that comes to life with a word
How was I to know it would dance without control?
How was I to know, what only hearts come to know

Only hearts cry blue

And the triggers fire to a certain smell
The catalyst the name always taken in vain
There's a stain that remains to always remind

Only hearts cry blue, can you hear it?

And if this romantic incline is a word
Could this be the gift to remind me of you?
It's a face in a word I thought I had heard, but it wasn't you

And if hearts cry blue
Would it be true to say I miss you?
Because this heart cried blue.
Track Name: Mad About You
as the fat and debris from another high cholesterol meal slips slowly round my brain
and the grey sky at my window makes colours in my mind through the lashing of the rain
the factories of the world belch our genocide but I shut my eyes
for I am mad about you

the bills through my door start another endless day as I shut off into daydream
I'm caught in the cross fire of want and desire and shopping it would seem
there's a killer disease care of the CIA and I say what a surprise
still I am mad about you

there's a storm in my mind when I look to the west
there's a suffering heart here that beats in my chest
holding my down as I lay me to rest in my dreams

as the cold winds of winter cut into my skin and I haven't the strength to start over again
I'm tattered and torn, my face starts to age, but somewhere within me begins the refrain

the suffering millions will just have to wait
the homeless and helpless I never could take
couldn't I just forget everything else for a while

for I am mad about
I’m still mad about you
Track Name: Kiss (duet)
You hurt me and you're beautiful and but for this would I resist
your eloquence and painful smile cajoling me to rest in bliss
you take from me serenity,
you rob me of my sanity
and I am but the weakest man
and kneel before your goddess hand
you hurt me and you're beautiful and but for this would I resist your kiss.

Your concept eyes reflecting blue reminding me of me in you
disruption of a peaceful sky by satellites that trail you hair
don't take from me my dignity
don't twist the knife so tenderly
and I will leave my face I'll hide
returned to you a proper pride
you hurt me and you're beautiful and but for this would I resist your kiss.

While I depart
to mend my heart
within the eyes the tears remain
but deep inside they fall like snow

you hurt me and you're beautiful and but for this would I resist your kiss.
