When I write, it is always the melody that comes first, and it just happens to be the case that the most beautiful tunes are sad, and the lyrics follow the mood of the melody.
RIP Françoise Hardy.

No shadow of a doubt, this is one of the best songs released in my lifetime, loved it from the first listen as a ten year old in 1972.

A while back, I re-created a graphic that featured in Kubrick's 2001. It was a very minor graphic in the film's cornucopia of special effects but I've always liked it. My original version contained a couple of errors (including the typeface), so I thought it was time to update it.
