Of course - all my (not so) many fans! If it wasn't for you guys saying how good I was, and actually making me believe it, I wouldn't do this. Cuz you lot make it all worthwhile!
Natasha in Canada - I know I don't speak to you anymore, but thanks for inspiring a couple of songs and telling me they were that damn good
Tom and Lucy - for inadvertenty inspiring a song
Colin - for doing the same as Tom and Lucy
Rhi - for doing exactly the same as Tom, Colin and Lucy
Various Bulmershe People - There's a few i'm not naming, but they have inspired several of my songs.
Various non-Bulmershe people who've also inspired me to put pen to pape- oops, sorry, fingers to keyboard :-D
All my fantastic friends, both offline and online - because you've always been there for me, have inspired my song lyrics and are just f*cking brilliant! (and because, when you annoy me, you inspire songs too :-)
My parents - for a) giving birth to me and b) being so crap at their jobs that i've written plenty of songs about it
Sarah, Danielle, Jo, and all the Everclear fans I know - because if you lot didn't make me fall in love with Everclear, I would have never ever heard them and probably never, ever started song writing like this!
Fizz for inspiring a song or two!
Paul McFederies - without him I couldn't have designed my website!
Thanks to all the people who've ever critisced me, or insulted me, or bitched at me, or anything. It's all made me stronger, and you've provided inspirations for plenty of songs!
Andrew, Nicole, Katie and the rest of the GT'ers for being damn great :-D
Art Alexakis for writing such inspirational, fun, happy, sad, incredible, emotional, moving, amazing lyrics and just for being an all round great guy
Craig Montoya - for playing Bass so damn well in the brilliant band Everclear. Keep changing the hair colour :-D
Greg Eklund - his drumming got me interested in first, drumming, and then, writing, in the first place. I originally did want to be a drummer just like him so thanks for just being buddy Greg!
Thanks to Emma - Claire
for helping me overcome my writers block. I know I couldn't have done it without
you, but, then again, I may not have got it without you either :-P And
it's cool that you've got rid of your block as well :-)
...And everyone else!
Michael
