Yeah I like this song, do you have an instrumental or separates?

Excuse me Kev; could you please check my I Can't Get It Out Of My Head for a possible Kev remix/mashup?
Not a lyric to disturb you, that one.
Kev
Yeah Stewy, Virgin as far as I'm told. Same place as Jamie T which is quite fitting.
I like these kind of lyrics that you can relate to, a bit more than chit-chat I would say. I also like ELO, but can't say I would rate their lyrics as high as what you're putting down.
A story about a bloke called Horace Wimp?
Wishing I was a Wild West Hero?
Complaining that your other half doesn't pick up the phone?
Having a party all over the world?
Asking where the sun has been?
Great songs but the lyrics don't inspire me at all.

Granted Kev.
Now we have the morning after look.
Stewy
This will probably sell. Isn't she signed to Virgin?
But I hate the local accent thing. It's just as contrived as the old trans-atlantic thing people used to get panned for.
The View, Arctic Monekeys, Little Man Tate, Underground Heroes all do it and I find it quite off putting. It seems to excuse people from actually singing.
As for the lyrics, again loads of people love that style (same jeans, bet you look good on't dancefloor etc), but to be honest, I think it's all a bit "say what you see". Very boring if you ask me. Shouldn't lyrics evoke a mood or image that transcends
chit chat?
