about

I discovered the joys of lap swimming (rather than dancing) a few years ago, and found it to be a meditative way of getting physical exercise - I have been known to recommend it to friends and colleagues who were getting a little over-stressed.

Alf Solti (Alfalpha) plays the piano (and quite well too I think). The drums and percs are midi - some loops, some played in on my trusty Yamaha and then adjusted with the mighty midi pencil. Thanks also to Alf and Mike Watkins for advice on the mix.

Loud is definitely best on this one - oh, and don't leave your seat until the performance is completely over!

lyrics

Follow The Black Line
© 2007 Neil Porter

I admire your persistence
I’m confused by modern times
Seems there’s no place for resistance
Take a break and follow the black line
Take a break and follow the black line

When I see your situation
Though you say you’re doing fine
I can feel your indignation
Better off to follow the black line
Better off to follow the black line

When it gets too hot out there
I follow the black line
Looking for a different point of view
Floating free the rhythm right
I empty out my mind
Dreaming in that silent world of blue

You might feel dissatisfaction
Have another glass of wine
You’re surprised at my reaction
Let it go and follow the black line
Let it go and follow the black line

When it gets too hot out there
I follow the black line
Looking for a different point of view
Floating free the rhythm right
I empty out my mind
Dreaming in that silent world of blue

I take a line of least resistance
Keep my distance at all times
Don’t give in to your insistence
Get a life and follow the black line
Get a life and follow the black line

When it gets too hot out there
I follow the black line
Looking for a different point of view
Floating free the rhythm right
I empty out my mind
Dreaming in that silent world of blue

When it gets too hot out there
I follow the black line
Dreaming in that silent world of blue

When it gets too hot out there
I follow the black line
Dreaming in that silent world of blue

When it gets too hot out there
I follow the black line
Dreaming in that silent world of blue etc
