I asked him to take me but he refused" Darker faces, Growing out of me, Facing hours, Tickles for free, Furlongs away, The goal never comes, But I can smell a sign, The tortoise never runs. Lots of people running too fast and they're never gonna run themselves out of the past, I'm twitching the curtain, Oh what a burden, Dissect your Mother, Dissect your Father, Dissect them with all your love. Lots of people running too fast and they're never gonna run themselves out of the past, I'm twitching the curtain, Oh what a burden, Dissect your Mother, Dissect your Father, Dissect them with all your love. ------ Birth & Death was an experimental exploration into improvised recording and songwriting, fuelled by red wine, one microphone and emotional events from people I knew. The most exciting part of it all, was when Robert Steven Connett, one of my Dad and mine's favourite artists, agreed to let me use his artwork for the release. People seem to enjoy the music I create, I know I do. Also available in 12" Vinyl format here: https://elasticstage.com/jaystansfield/releases/birth-death-album "Jay Stansfield is an amazing British singer-songwriter.
