Well, what happened? I uploaded one song, then wrote a couple of others for another project, and then somehow found myself in a five-month slump. A number of factors have been responsible: the desire to live in a clean, tidy, well-maintained house; lots going on at work, leaving me &#8216;xhausted at the end of the day; spending time with the fambly.<\/p>\n<p>But then I started to fear for my creativity, which is blatantly atrophying, so on one Sunday morning a month ago, I pushed myself to record this song that I&#8217;d been developing over the previous couple of weeks. I came to the realisation that all this sitting around in front of a computer is going to catch up with me soon, and if I don&#8217;t start taking better care of myself, I&#8217;m going to hit 30 and have the body of a 40 year old. The only option that I can see is to find time in my schedule for regular exercise, but as I am no longer a person with ample spare time, that will mean sacrifices elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, enough mithering, here&#8217;s the song, and I think that it&#8217;s a cracker. It features an extra uber mega special guest on piano and backing vocals, <a href=\"http:\/\/pete.nu\/blog\/search\/nathan\">Nathan<\/a>, who was absolutely honoured to work on this prestigious project, I&#8217;m sure. He added his contribution yesterday afternoon, and we can finally consider the song to be finished.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.last.fm\/music\/Pete+Hall\/_\/Everyone's+Got+Piles?autostart\">Listen at last.fm<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>More than seven months ago, I claimed to be feeling the distant aroma of inspiration.
