It's All About You.
Well I don't know what to doCause I really don't trust youOur leaders don't have timeAre you gonna walk the lineWhere's all the money...
Well I don't know what to do Cause I really don't trust you Our leaders don't have time Are you gonna walk the line
Where's all the money gone And where did it all go wrong The cuts that don't make sense Have left us in a mess
As I lie here thinking My respect is sinking Why do you let us down
So I know you think it's ok And I know you say we're fine But you're running out of fight And we're running out of time
And I know we voted you in But you had a secret plan And the more you promise change The more things stay the same
As I lie here thinking My respect is sinking Why do you let us down
Yet for all your privileged life You still take all you can There's no honour in your ways And the system doesn't change
When I see you on TV All your words they flow so well But the truth is hard to find So you can go to hell
As I lie here thinking My respect is sinking Oh! Why do you let us down
You decide what's good for us From the safety of your tower Your words affect us all But you're blinded by the power
Well I know you-don't-think about us And you never-take-the-blame What about us Ohh It's not about us
All your sordid words and deeds Yet we are jailed for less No judgement or control You're such a moral mess
So you send us off to war to fight people we don't know Some just don't come back Yet your kind never go
As I lie here thinking My respect is sinking Why do you let us down
It's all about you

A cool style of music. It reminds me of some American TV series themes that were produced in the early 2000's. "Friends" come to mind. This is performed, recorded and produced very good. You have an excellent singer for this style. The guitar solo was hot Phillip, well done!
12/08/24 05:59:32PM @phillipfoxley: @billb Thanks for your thoughts Bill and I’m delighted to hear that this track resonates so well with you and in an era that I also know well. Your comment is valued and so much appreciated. 🤝👍

This is a great piece of song writing and it's well executed.. I find it stirs up recognition of a very specific era of style and sound. Reminds me a lot of Allan Hull and Lindis Farne. Also I feel hints of Billy Bragg and so much of more discreet Pop/punk British style. I enjoyed it a lot. Good to hear something a bit different. thanks for the grat listening experience. Cheers!

Phillip Foxley is a multi-genre songwriter, guitarist and music producer. He writes and produces music for licensing or covers from his home studio in North Wales, UK.
With influences from every corner of the world, Foxley has now released his own debut album entitled “I’ll Try ‘Till I Die”, an eclectic collection of original blistering blues rock guitar and soft acoustic and piano tracks written over the years. Foxley says “Every track on this album means so much and every note is from my very soul”.
“This album is like my musical life story. It’s also a ‘big’ album in that there are over twenty tracks on it already and, because I don’t intend to release any more albums, I just keep adding tracks to it as they are released”.
Stop by anytime. Phillip Foxley
"If you’ve never heard of Phillip Foxley then you should seek out his music, turn up the volume and zone out. It reflects the maturity so loved and appreciated in the great blues rock players. His song collection has all the right stuff; edgy blues to classically styled rock to soft acoustic and piano tunes. It’s like listening to three generations of blues-rock on one album" .
