10 of 233MoreI love your songs, your voice...My favorites songs are "come on spring", "Louise", and "demon alcohol". Very great songs!
Thanks for the req! Nice stuff out there... Hope you'll enjoy my tunes too, check out my page! Greetings
Thanks for adding me as a friend. Good luck with everything. I remember watching you play keyboards at the Birmingham Academy gig with the bad seeds, fairly recently, and the sounds were on the wrong setting for the encore. And you carried on playing laughing all the way through it. Star man.
Got it. Perfect! :) xx
will be there!

Really love your song 'Home Is Far From Here'.

Ever-fantastic Mick. I wish it weren't so difficult to see you do your thing so far away. That's all for now. Much love.
