about

This was a quick song to write and record, done in an afternoon ..... then I spent a week mixing the bloody thing. A bit of an experiment genre-wise (I figure it's almost Alt Pop).

This track is all me - a couple of Seagull tracks, at least 3 Tele tracks, B3, Bass and midi drums. Lyrics are simple (mainly so I can remember them when doing it live) and melody is designed to be able to sing while playing bass. I'm pretty happy with it really - hope you like it.

lyrics

Don’t Want to Talk About It
©2009 Neil Porter

Why can’t you say what you mean?
Why don’t you mean what you say?
Can’t you just say how things seem?
Such stupid games that you play

I don’t want to talk about it
I don’t want to say goodbye
I don’t want to talk about it
It’s just gonna make me cry

Don’t know where I stand anymore
Couldn’t you say from the start?
Couldn’t believe what I saw
You put this pain in my heart

I don’t want to talk about it
I don’t want to say goodbye
I don’t want to talk about it
It’s just gonna make me cry

You say you’ve got no regrets
I say I’ve got quite a few
This is as good as it gets
I’ve learnt too much about you

I don’t want to talk about it
I don’t want to say goodbye
I don’t want to talk about it
It’s just gonna make me cry
