‘The Night Watchman’ by Zoolon Recently I’ve had a few songs ‘curated’ on ReverbNation. At first it sounded to me like it meant they pickled them in a jar, then realizing songs are nothing like gherkins I checked it out and a ‘curated’ song is a very good song that gets put in front of … Continue reading THE NIGHT WATCHMAN & PLANET MARS
‘The Allegory of The Night’ by Zoolon A new lyric about an important subject. It’s themed on the homeless crisis in the UK that’s getting worse every day.

I drive out to a place called Kearsney Abbey even though it never was an abbey, just a massive grand old country house that fell apart. … Continue reading NEVERLAND & THE FERRYMAN
