Paul Murphy - 'There's Blood On Your Hands' [Take 8]

This is Take 8, from the second day's session, taken from the safety camera. This is the only salveagable footage from the 15-song session, due to a technical issue on the film from this camera. More than slightly annoying, since the room camera had a flaw on the sound mix. Some days...

All versions of 'There's Blood On Your Hands' have a slightly (and in some cases not so slight) different arrangement, because I envisaged, and constructed it in less of a 'standard' song route. It doesn't follow a set tempo or level, but each version alters and alternates, the guitar being a means of pronunciation rather than accompaniment. It compresses attention to the lyric, makes it more claustrophobic.

Seperately, the song doesn't end quite how one would expect; the final chord changes according to how the song has been played, and the final verse is not quite a full stop, but somewhat of an ellipse. Because there is no resolution. In the 18 hours since I wrote and recorded this, the lyric applies to 10,000 fresh instances, probably in the UK alone.

It's a hell of a bad world.

Love and hope,

Me

If you have enjoyed this video, and would care to make a small donation for them, many sincere thanks and much gratitude, from both myself, and from them via myself; the link is https://paypal.me/DylEmTrust

If you have listened and read this far, you have been extraordinarily kind with your precious time, and my sincere thanks for that. Waste not a second - I beg you.
