  • I'm back! Had a busy week. I promise to never leave you for so long again; or to ever shave again. I made a huge mistake.
    Once again, thanks to the genius that is Luke Taylor on the audio mix.
    You can now stream/download newly recorded "studio" versions of This Charming Man and There Is A Light on my debut album "50/50"!

    From Wikipedia:
    ""What Difference Does It Make?" is a song by the English rock band the Smiths, written by singer Morrissey and guitarist Johnny Marr. It was the band's third single and is featured on their debut album, The Smiths. A different version, recorded for the John Peel Show on BBC Radio 1, is included in the compilation album Hatful of Hollow.
    The song was one of the band's first significant chart hits, peaking at No. 12 in the UK Singles Chart. However, Morrissey has said "What Difference Does It Make?" is among his least favourite songs of the Smiths'.[2]"
    Lyrics:
    All men have secrets and here is mine
    So let it be known
    For we have been through hell and high tide
    I think I can rely on you
    And yet you start to recoil
    Heavy words are so lightly thrown
    But still I'd leap in front of a flying bullet for you
    So, what difference does it make?
    So, what difference does it make?
    It makes none
    But now you have gone
    And you must be looking very old tonight
    The devil will find work for idle hands to do
    I stole and I lied, and why?
    Because you asked me to!
    But now you make me feel so ashamed
    Because I've only got two hands
    Well, I'm still fond of you, oh-ho-oh
    So, what difference does it make?
    Oh, what difference does it make?
    Oh, it makes none
    But now you have gone
    And your prejudice won't keep you warm tonight
    Oh, the devil will find work for idle hands to do
    I stole, and then I lied
    Just because you asked me to
    But now you know the truth about me
    You won't see me anymore
    Well, I'm still fond of you, oh-ho-oh
    But no more apologies
    No more, no more apologies
    Oh, I'm too tired
    I'm so sick and tired
    And I'm feeling very sick and ill today
    But I'm still fond of you, oh-ho-oh
    Oh, my sacred one
    Oh

      End chorus bit: F#, D, E x 3
