Paul Murphy - 'While A Bridge Is Burning' . Less angry, more rueful version

I played a fuller guitar for this version - nb it starts at 02:30 due to the 'behind the scenes' intro - and I recoloured the vocal, from outright anger down to a alternating mix of raging and rueing.

This is probably the last time I will be doing this song - as the disease spreads through me, 12-minute-long songs are beyond me (if you look closely you can see the plectrum is stickytaped to my thumb), but hopefully I've left enough varied versions behind, I know this song has a lot of fans (I'm one of them).

If you'd told me in 1986 that I would still be spitting this out almost 4 decades later, at 62 years old... well, I'd have believed you actually. But what a shame that the lyric is still relevant today as back then.

Light and peace,

Me

On a tertiary note, whilst here, if I may be so bold - I am uploading videos of my songs, my performances, my prose recitals, etc, to raise funds for my most amazing children, who get any donations when they reach 16. I have Progressive Palsy F-MND, and - well, and. There is no cure.

If you have enjoyed this video, and would care to make a small donation for them, many sincere thanks and much gratitude, from both myself, and from them via myself; the link is https://paypal.me/DylEmTrust

If you have listened and read this far, you have been extraordinarily kind with your precious time, and my sincere thanks for that. Waste not a second - I beg you.
