    The Bartoncard contains not only music, but an ebook, videos and more...

    It's a wonder of the modern age, this Barton Hartshorn personalised credit card contains not one, but two folders. In the first you will find "Headquarter café Vol1" in three easy to swallow formats: mobi for Kindle, epub for mostly everything else & even a pdf for casual everyday use.

    The second folder will reveal my 1st album "Headquarter Café" in CD quality for the discerning listener & also in MP3 format for those who can't hear the difference. Well, why take up the extra space if that's the case I say?

    The third folder is stuffed with goodies: videos, lyrics, alternative sleeves etc

    I advise you to keep this card with you at all times; take it to the shops, flaunt it at the opera, flash it at policemen to get off speeding fines, tuck it casually into your bikini at the beach, it will I assure you never cease to impress and amaze your friends and enemies in equal amounts.     ... more

about

The last song to be added to the album. Amazing Cello playing from Mimi Sunnerstam. I think I'd just listened to I am the walrus before doing the string arrangement.

lyrics

My name is collapse, I'm your dark star
My fuel on the fire got you this far

The folks back home say "one in a million" of you
But you need to be no one in the middle of a crowd

My dear puppeteer, my destiny dog
The flea in my ear, the ghost in my fog

You're folding down the days
Go hide your errant ways in the middle of a crowd

You're drinking gin & soda, you're jumping just to show her
That you're a shaker mover, that they don't come no cooler
Well I hate to disappoint ya' but for you it's all over
Time for your prescription fill, I will implode now it's all over

You fine limousine, you'll leave on a bus
Sucked in by machine, big bang in reverse

Don't fret, ne soit pas triste
Go lick your wounds, your lips, in the middle of a crowd...
