I hate leaving things til the last minute. Got a meeting tomorrow with the management buggers tomorrow about this Christmas song and I haven't written a thing for it.
I didn't even want to do a novelty record...if I had my way the single would be Don't Blame Me and a live version of Skweeze Me Pleez Me. Apparantly the lads reckon a Christmas single will be the way to go but I'm not convinced. I mean, Don't Blame Me is one of the best we've done so far, there's NO WAY anything we do will top that.
Anyway gotta stop whinging about it and write this Christmas song now...I just want to get it done and maybe get on with my solo album. Bash this one song out then look to the future. Look to the future...now there's a start.
