Feelings, nothing more than the reaction to what has transpired, the opinion of response to stimuli, the external pressure represented by the Sentiments caressed by life; we must always be mindful of these personal views, the gush of blood that can tip the balance one way or the other less we fall into the trap of mawkishness, of the reaction that is not ours to behold.

In Victory we are either magnanimous to those have beaten, or we allow ourselves to be judged harshly by history as we drown them in a sea of disdain. In any situation, be it a game, in a fight, in war, how we see, and taste triumph is a reflection of our own inadequate nature. Heralding boastful triumph breeds the need to conquer, it damages the nerve of society, and the oppressor is soon adjudged to be on the side of evil, even if was said to have done so with good intentions.

If we tell it like it really is, we are likely to alienate a cross selection of people without really trying; whether it comes in the form of an expressed well-researched opinion, or a generalisation that has been brought on by a wider view, the fine line between acceptable discussion and outright personal attack comes just down to the way and how far we are willing to go, to love the corporate machine.

The chance to reflect upon an offering by an artist years after it was first tentatively produced, after it had its velvet cover removed in a flurry of bright lights, headlines, and hoped for champagne corks popping in delight at the spirit of human conscious standing proudly on the pedestal, is one that arguably must be taken with great sincerity, and with pathos deeply prescribed; for few in time retain the idea of masterpiece, for as opinions change, shift, and alter, so too will the sound be revised, the story behind it taking on a less or more significance.

Adventure is within the soul, it is innate to the species, it is peculiar to the individual, and almost always the first step that leads to a newfound sense of independence being framed and saluted by others along the way; it might stir the soul, it could be one that is drips with anxiety, but in due course it will be remembered as a tender moment between mind and matter.

Where others may feel the small drops of rain on a spring day, the sensitive feel the lashing of a hurricane in autumn; this is the love and the penance that the complex emotional readers find when they are presented with an overload of sensation, when they are granted access to an innermost desire or sometimes passing thought, the rain is not an inconvenience, it is a flood of reaction that is yours to own completely. There is the rub, to answer in the positive when examined, Yours Aye.

No matter where you go in life, there is always a Wildwood.
Such a place on the map goes by many names, some archaic and stubborn, some a little brighter, but no less conservative in its outlook, and the person with emotional dreams, with a different outlook on life, will always find a way to leave it…dreams are always on Borrowed Time, and if you don’t escape the Wildwood when the call comes, how can you ever hope to return with ideas on how to change it for the better.

Undoubtedly Suzi Quatro will go down in history as one of the godmothers of Rock ‘n’ Roll. That she broke through in a time of Glam Rock means little, for this musician could have forced her way into the charts and into the national collective psyche at any point, and yet she strode the stage as a colossus of the period, a million racing hearts cheered her on, captivated by her drive, her presence, and the generosity of spirit, the woman who came from under the shadow of her sister’s band, The Pleasure Seekers, and stormed the world, who spun like a Catherine Wheel fuelled by an nuclear power source.

If you have something to say, then say it, or as old journalists used to insist on quoting The Duke of Wellington, “Publish and be damned”.
There is no sense in being coy in a world that has lost its way, in which has embraced the vacuous void of human impression, in which we have allowed, permitted, atrocities and carnage to take hold in our name, whilst slowly, unmistakably, seeing our souls wither, still conscious but barely able to withstand the pressure placed on its fragile shell-like existence.

It is almost seen as a rite of passage, the sense of returning to a place where the traditional encompasses the message of despair, of hope being removed by darker conglomerate forces, and the song that catches the feeling of tough times being endured by resilient men and women in the perpetual struggle to be free.
