A short upbeat and catchy bluesy, folk/rock tune. Played on acoustic guitars (including slide on resonator), cajon and bass. Described by KIAC Radio 'Oh my God, You'll Love This' as having "adventurous textures, musicality with an american grain" - which I totally agree with!

Lyrics and music by Brian Cooling.
Performed by b.e_cooling (B Cooling and Woody Woodward)
Recorded and mixed by W Woodward at Fool's Folly Studio.

Life's short. Don't waste it - value it.

Blue took the ridge - red hit the floor
Green had armies but black had more
Hours later - the victory roll
I guess I’ve seen this battle before.
Clock the timer on the factory wall
Drones are droning while the big brass brawl
Cold shoulder to the dead man’s bier
“I’ve had enough! Get me out of here!”
If you want it like you need to –
That’s fine, fine, fine, fine ,fine
Make the time.
I don’t know what happened that day when you thought I was Mister Magoo;
You made me mushroom paté but it didn’t taste like it should
The only thing I recall was the colour of her I Ching
I’ve never trusted you since - but god, how I wanted to sing!
If you want it like you’d need to - make the time
That’s fine, fine, fine, fine ,fine
Just don’t waste mine
Turn off the power, you can see through the night
The road is narrow but we all need the fright
Spread your wings when the tall ships fly
Count the friends who twinkle up in the sky
La la la la la
La la la la la
It’s fine, if you make a difference in your life
It’s fine, so fine
Just make the time
If you want it like you need it so bad
That’s Fine! Fine! Fine! Fine! Fine!
Just make the time.

INDIE SPIRIT
Since first performing together at Glastonbury Festival 2008, Brian Cooling and Woody Woodward have been working in the recording studio and on stage to create a singular sound with which they journey through a variety of styles and tempos, drawing from a diverse range of musical influences from ‘the fifties’ to the current day. Some listeners have likened them to such artists as Johnny Cash, the Doors, Crash Test Dummies, Gomez and Mumford and Sons. They have been well-received in the Southwest’s regional media and have appeared on BBC Somerset Sounds and GFM. They have impressed audiences of all ages with their proficiency and stage manner and their songs have been described by listeners as “amazing”, “awesome”, “magical” and “incendiary”.
