A few years ago I found myself wondering: What if Tim Smith (Cardiacs, The Sea Nymphs) had written Auld Lang Syne? It would probably have some wonky chords and trippy bits, wouldn’t it? So I recorded my best attempt at just such a thing. It’s not a perfect imitation of Cardiacs — more like my cover of a Tim Smith song that doesn’t exist.
Recently I revisited the old demo and polished it up in the mix, added some programmed drums and stuff, and got it sounding generally decent.
So what better day to share it than New Year’s Eve? Ring out the old year, ring in the new. Ring-a-ding ding!
