Patreon preview - new ending music
Added 2024-03-15 11:03:19 +0000 UTCHello gang. Richard here with a bit of Friday nonsense. I thought we needed some new ending music for the podcast and that, for no real reason, it should be a sort of medium-paced ballad-style song. I think it might have been because I’d heard Just Like Jesse James by Cher and/or watched that excellent Netflix documentary about the making of We Are The World. Anyway, this week I was desperately avoiding doing actual work and came up with this. Appearing soon in a podcast near you.
Have a great weekend.

Any chance on a hardcore D&B mash up? Loving it though!

2024-05-20 09:55:32 +0000 UTCAt least in the old days you could leverage it into advertising for whatever that mob was before the show ;-) This is a lovely variation.
Matt Stanford
2024-03-26 01:43:48 +0000 UTCThe level of work avoidance is genuinely commendable

2024-03-19 20:22:28 +0000 UTCLong time listener/viewer first time Patreon supporter. You got me with the effort you put into the new song. Still love the old outro too.

Lorne Smyth
2024-03-17 09:12:43 +0000 UTCDefinitely an album ending track. It is 70s vibes I'm sniffing (no pun, etc), with only the barest hint of cheese.

Richard Edwards
2024-03-15 20:29:41 +0000 UTCI hope at the next live show to see a sea of lighters in the air as this plays out. In the background plays a black and white montage of Jonny trying desperately to start a barn find MK4 Zodiac with a poorly Essex 3.0.

2024-03-15 19:27:07 +0000 UTCComfortably dumb! lol love it!

2024-03-15 16:57:46 +0000 UTCWhen will we get a Smith n Sniff Live performance of all the classic tunes?
Damian
2024-03-15 16:50:16 +0000 UTCI got some ideas on them there pies... Audi Apple, Metro Mince, Orange Opel, Skoda Strawberry ..
Andy Pinchock
2024-03-15 16:34:30 +0000 UTCI think it’s fine starting off slow but needs to go all drum and base a minute in!
Peter Grogan
2024-03-15 16:09:45 +0000 UTCIt's OK but I'm afraid its not as good as your seminal work, "Basically in Nottingham"
Nigel Hancock
2024-03-15 16:00:41 +0000 UTCI admire your creativity Richard, you clearly have some talent. Being honest, I don't get that warm fuzzy feeling that I would expect from closing lyrics. I get the "need" for liking, subscribing, reviewing and buying merch etc. but can we have a bit of love to go along with it (and maybe a teeny bit higher on the tempo)?! xxx
Wayne Brook
2024-03-15 15:30:00 +0000 UTCDefinitely vibes of black & white footage of Jonny and his brother wandering through the auto junkyard on his birthday as old Rare, but Nobody Cares vehicles get plucked off the heap and cubed in the background.
Mike K.
2024-03-15 15:28:47 +0000 UTCThis. 100% this.
Tomdo
2024-03-15 15:21:05 +0000 UTCWhen are you shooting the film clip for this song? I'm seeing white suit, white piano, choristers in the background?
Willy Weedon
2024-03-15 15:05:21 +0000 UTCThe Rutles on a raised platform at some rural, overgrown and long forgotten racetrack, serenading a drifting and somewhat out-of-control Lada Samara Flyte, as two elderly men in black beanies, huddle under a tartan blanket, each with a tear in their eye.. Shot in sepia and slow motion, naturally.. On That Side of Things.... 🏁
Kevin Cochrane
2024-03-15 13:47:51 +0000 UTCSounds like it would be the 'secret' last song on a Lightning Seeds album

2024-03-15 13:19:48 +0000 UTCWell that's just brightened up a wet Friday afternoon. 👍🏻 Top work Richard.
George Wade
2024-03-15 13:13:49 +0000 UTCIsn't that 'One Day' by SulzArt?
Peter Heamon
2024-03-15 13:07:41 +0000 UTCNeeds a music video, Richard and Jonny skipping in slow motion, through rain

Ste
2024-03-15 12:45:11 +0000 UTCYou need to do a mock breakfast TV interview set in 2044 where you’re asked about how you were inspired to write this anthem, 20 years ago today.
Jim Galbraith
2024-03-15 12:43:54 +0000 UTCIt’s for a worthy cause people.
Jim Galbraith
2024-03-15 12:42:26 +0000 UTCScratch my last comment about deadlines. This is sublime.
Rick Bean
2024-03-15 12:37:57 +0000 UTCI'm now listening to this instead of preparing a presentation for work...
Peter Heamon
2024-03-15 12:35:55 +0000 UTCBrilliant!
Bruno Tramontano
2024-03-15 12:33:48 +0000 UTCIs your Evo deadline is coming up fast?
Rick Bean
2024-03-15 12:32:40 +0000 UTCI wonder if any of the people that pay Richard actual cash monies knows this is what he gets up to when they're chasing deadlines :-p
MedicalFlyer
2024-03-15 12:24:19 +0000 UTCWow, the layers! You’ve really procrastinated the heck out of this thing. I mean, you could have gone even harder with some wailing guitar really low in the mix just to make those hours disappear
Rikard Ottosson
2024-03-15 12:24:01 +0000 UTCOh that brings a tear to my....
Simon Houghton
2024-03-15 12:19:49 +0000 UTCAre you procrastinating from doing actual work again Richard? Brilliant outro 👌🏻
Dean Hempshall
2024-03-15 12:15:51 +0000 UTCThere was a deadline due wasn't there...
Gigavox!
2024-03-15 12:14:08 +0000 UTCMidway when Ionny’s listing the merch, I caught a whiff of Pink Floyd’s The Wall. Or am I crazy?
Chris Armstrong
2024-03-15 12:11:45 +0000 UTCIt's shit.....OTSOT
Paul Fargher
2024-03-15 12:11:30 +0000 UTCWow, what was it that you were supposed to be doing, probably for financial recompense, that you fucked off to pull this beauty out of your grey?
Adam Kiddle
2024-03-15 12:10:36 +0000 UTCGenius! I appreciate the classic lazy fade out.
Kristof Kiraly
2024-03-15 12:03:40 +0000 UTCIncredible work, I can already picture the overly soft-focused video for this.
Tigran Khamoian
2024-03-15 12:01:22 +0000 UTCSuperb. Right up there with the much-missed Car and Classic advert song
Alex Fell
2024-03-15 11:58:37 +0000 UTCWonder if there’s a section of the podcast awards devoted to epic podcast outro’s? Sweet sweet outro
Daniel Brown
2024-03-15 11:58:05 +0000 UTCHow much is a session vocalist? Only Dennis is capable of both writing and singing the theme toon.
Simon Smyth
2024-03-15 11:57:28 +0000 UTCWonders if there are any other songs with an OTSOT? Possibly not, so for that reason, this is genius! 👍🏻
Kevin Rushton

2024-03-15 11:46:53 +0000 UTCI'm getting a vision of seas of mobile phone lights, swinging in unison in front of a polygonal stage (not a pyramid, that's taken) in basically Somerset... That's some premium grade work avoidance, right there 😂 Also, as a lapsed musician myself, you are annoyingly good at this stuff, Mr Sniff 😘👏
Stuart Maxwell
2024-03-15 11:46:28 +0000 UTCIf there’s more work to be avoided in future, do consider making a MV out of this lol
Wilson Lin
2024-03-15 11:44:18 +0000 UTCIt's got a John Grant vibe. But then the cast is the GMF after all !

Thinfourth
2024-03-15 11:23:10 +0000 UTCAn excellent piece of work avoidance (although the last 45 seconds does remind me of the piano section of Layla and where they find all the dead bodies in GoodFellas)
MarkWilliams
2024-03-15 11:21:55 +0000 UTCGreat work, sounds like a collaboration between The Flaming Lips and rent a ghost.

Richard Fitton-Perkins
2024-03-15 11:17:15 +0000 UTCEthereal. Just needs an 8 bar slow wailing guitar solo, with heavy reverb.
Tom Howroyd
2024-03-15 11:16:29 +0000 UTCOr take acid and listen at 0.5. Proper fear and loathing!

Myron Vernis

David Saunders
2024-03-15 11:13:41 +0000 UTCBy the end of the year I hope you'll have an album to release (and a Christmas single). On the subject of music, have you heard the new song by Kings of Leon called Mustang? It's got a line in it that goes "There’s a Mustang in the city and it's calling me out". Wondered what Mustang and what city it could be? Vee-hicle related of course

Adam
2024-03-15 11:12:24 +0000 UTCIn an effort to avoid doing any actual work on a Friday too, as soon as I spotted the Patreon notification I had to down tools and have a listen.
Formula Whine
2024-03-15 11:11:33 +0000 UTCI encourage you all to listen at 1.75 times as well. Strangely entrancing, like Madonna’s song, when played, backwards encouraging devil worship. On that side of things.
Martin Laver
2024-03-15 11:11:20 +0000 UTCYou really didn't want to do the work did you !! Great effort
AL Dickens
2024-03-15 11:10:30 +0000 UTCI'd guess the work you've been avoiding is spectacularly important judging by the care and attention to detail in the layering of these tracks!

Paul Gaish
2024-03-15 11:08:26 +0000 UTC40 seconds in and I found myself waving a lighter in the air, which came as a surprise as I don't own one. That's the magic of a light-to-medium weight pop ballad.
Ian Phillip
2024-03-15 11:08:02 +0000 UTCRichard spends so much time making music to avoid doing actual work that he should become a professional 'artist' to rival DJ Khaled.
Julian Hale
2024-03-15 11:08:00 +0000 UTCThe Manchester music scene really missed out when you decided to go into television
Adam
2024-03-15 11:07:51 +0000 UTCThe unmistakable sound of midi. The ties should be a discreet yellow and black stripe with an S&S monogram at the bottom, on the back it should say "on the back side of things" or some sort of pun of that nature
