The Sky is Falling Down
This track came about after I had seen an article in a music magazine that sugested that song writers should excercise their abilities by writing songs about everyday current affairs. The idea was to write just for the excercise to write something that was not steriotyped in the way that love songs were.
I thought it was an interesting idea but forgot about it later. A couple of days after I was watching the evening news when a report came on about the ozone layer having developed a hole over the south pole. In the report someone said that it was as though the sky had fallen down. The chorus came from that and the verses were linked by some of my own experiences with nature and the Earth.
Best wishes
