Just Another Love Song - Clive Farrington

July 4th 2013 (Manchester, United Kingdom) - Music producer, Jon Brooks, teamed up with Clive Farrington (lead vocalist - 'When In Rome') to co-write and produce Clive's first solo album 'Independence'.

The official release date 'Independence Day' is significant as 4th July also represents Clive Farrington's independent release outside of 'When in Rome'. When in Rome had a No. 1 hit single in the USA called 'The Promise'. It was released in 1988. In 2004, 'The Promise' was used as the end title theme for the successful movie, 'Napoleon Dynamite'. Due to unfortunate legal issues over the name 'When In Rome', Clive decided to go ahead with a solo album.

The new album exhibits a fusion of styles; blending classical orchestral elements with a modern day electronic sound... as an addition to this, 'Independence' also boasts a hint of the 80's too! It's already receiving extensive radio play and TMR Records have just negotiated and licensed two of the tracks to GAP (Mexico) for use on their latest compilation CD. Some of the album's tracks could be classed as a cross between the 'Pet Shop Boys', David Guetta, Scott Walker and Robert Miles. The songs are honest, suitably original and highly emotive.

Clive: "I met Jon whilst working as a Technical Install Manager at Castle Rock Studios in Alderley Edge, Cheshire, UK. The CRS studio was being built by the fabulous TSP (The Studio People). At the same time, and unbeknown to me, a smaller version on the same design level as CRS was being built right around the corner from my home in Stockport, Cheshire, UK! The builders on that project would come by CRS and tell me about Jon Brooks and how he's into film score projects... Right up my street, I thought!!! Jon has a Masters in Composition for Film and Television. He had just relocated back to the UK after spending six years working as an in-house composer for one of the best audio post-production studios in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. He specialised in music composition and audio production for film, television and advertising. I wanted to get to know him and maybe put something together. I dropped by Jon's studio and left my card with his father. Jon called me a week later, and now... just listen to the new album and breathe in the fabulous results!"

The new album 'INDEPENDENCE' was released on TMR (Tough Monkey Records) through Kobalt Label Services / AWAL on July 4th 2013.

--------------- LYRICS ---------------

NARRATIVE 1: (DJ 1LOVE -- Paul Todd)

"It is being reported that over 40% of new internet profiles are actually fake. Why are so many people setting up fake profiles?"

VERSE 1:

It's time to dance

Like no one's watching

Trust yourself

And no cross talking

Believe in love

No bad religion

Fool no one

Your dreams fulfilling

CHORUS:

Out of all the places we could be

We lose ourselves so easily

Do not mistake identity

INVISIBLE

There are times when fortunes favour me

And times that I no longer see

But all the way, I find the game

INCREDIBLE

NARRATIVE 2: (STEVE BENZ -- WSDI Worldwide)

"Fake profiles are set up by a combination of either spammers and virus writers, or people attempting to say malicious things without the risk of being caught... They believe they are so called -- INVISIBLE -- They're about to find out they aren't INVISIBLE, any longer...

I-I-I—I—I-I-INVISIBLE

I-I—I-I-I-INVISIBLE

INVISIBLE"

VERSE 2:

Take yourself

To the top of the mountain

Breathe the air

Like no one's counting

Now it's time to rise

Above the bar now

You will reach

The furthest star now

CHORUS:

Out of all the places we could be

We lose ourselves so easily

Do not mistake identity

INVISIBLE

There are times when fortunes favour me

And times that I no longer see

But all the way, I find the game

INCREDIBLE

NARRATIVE 3: (DJ 1LOVE -- Paul Todd)

"Only 1 in 10 victims will inform a parent or trusted adult of cyber bullying abuse...

Cyber bullying abuse is the use of the internet and related technologies to harm other people in a deliberate, repeated and hostile manner...

Why are so many people setting up fake profiles?"

NARRATIVE 4: (STEVE BENZ -- WSDI Worldwide)

"Fake profiles are set up by a combination of either spammers and virus writers, or people attempting to say malicious things without the risk of being caught..."

CHORUS:

Out of all the places we could be

We lose ourselves so easily

Do not mistake identity

INVISIBLE

There are times when fortunes favour me

And times that I no longer see

But all the way, I find the game

INCREDIBLE

How lonely must your cold life be

If all the world but you can see

The dull cast shadow that you leave

INVISIBLE

VERSE 1

I'm breathin' in but only breathing thin air

Talking all the time but not getting anywhere

Falling for and in and out of love

The breaking heart comes always hand in glove

CHORUS

I'm barely breathing... when I think about her

I'm barely breathing... when I think about her

VERSE 2

I'm walking down your street, I can't stand the atmosphere

A few small steps away, and then I'll be out of here

I'm walking back to freedom and I'm walking in the rain

I'm moving so my head is clear, 'cos I can't stand this pain

CHORUS

I'm barely breathing... when I think about her

I'm barely breathing... when I think about her

I'm barely breathing... when I think about her

I'm barely breathing... when I think about her

When I think about her...

Breathin' in but only breathing thin air

Talking all the time but not getting anywhere

Falling for and in and out of love

The breaking heart comes always hand in glove

CHORUS

I'm barely breathing... when I think about her

I'm barely breathing... when I think about her

I'm barely breathing... when I think about her

I'm barely breathing... when I think about her

I'm barely breathing...

Jon Brookes, the drummer from British indie rock band The Charatans has died.

I was surprised to receive messages thinking people thought I had died today.  However, it is a different Jon Brookes.  My thoughts and love go out to his friends and family at this difficult time.  RIP Jon.

LONDON – Jon Brookes, drummer with British indie rock band The Charlatans, has died. He was 44 and had been treated for brain cancer.  The band said on its website that Brooks died in a hospital Tuesday.

Lead singer Tim Burgess tweeted that the band was “torn apart” by Brookes’ death.

Brookes was a founding member of the band, which drew on funk, rock and psychedelia and came to be associated with the early 1990s “Madchester” scene. The Charlatans’ multiple British hits include “The Only One I Know” and “Can’t Get Out of Bed.”

Brookes was diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2010 after collapsing onstage during a concert in Philadelphia. He had been working on new material with The Charlatans this summer.

He is survived by his wife and three daughters.

Peoples Problems: Introducing www.peoplesproblems.org

An online community dedicated to supporting those with personal problems across a diverse range of topics. This advertising feature sets the theme of the site, and we'd really really appreciate it if you could 'like' this video, so that we can gain further support for those experiencing difficulties - every little helps!

PEOPLES PROBLEMS:

Our Vision:
To be the leading relationship forum and free of charge self-help internet resource, facilitating the exchange of advice in an anonymous and welcoming environment.

Site Overview:
You can discuss your relationship problems in our confidential discussion forum, or read and relate to other peoples problems. Our visitors often seem unsure whether to consult with a relationship counsellor or not, so we'd like to think that our forum is the first port of call for any problem, but not necessarily a substitute for professional help.

If you have a Twitter account, please follow us. You'll be featured in our Twitter universe (below), and we'll automatically hyperlink back to your Twitter account to help give you some exposure too!

Miles Franklin said "someone to tell it to is one of the fundamental needs of human beings" - and we like to think that our site facilitates this basic requirement. Therefore, if you just listen to people's problems, you're actually helping them to overcome them to a certain extent.

As mentioned above, the main feature of the Peoples Problems website is the advice forum, so why not share your problems, and see whether our visitors can offer their support.

In addition to the community based problem forum, we have an evolving business directory, so if your company is dedicated to helping people with problems (especially relationship advice), then don't just rely on Yahoo and Google to drive referrals - we'd be delighted to host more information about your business for free! Click here for details

In fact, there's quite a lot going on here, so you might like to bookmark us so you can keep up to date with all the new content being contributed by our users every week.

If you're not here to look for help, or to read other peoples problems, then you might like to take part in our on-line poll, or create your own poll for others to vote on. Another popular feature you may be interested in is our survey which enables you to compare your profile against other people who have already taken part.

If you would like to post your own topic and get advice about a problem or even create a new poll question, you can register for free. On our site, the main problems that people encounter, are to do with their relationships, emotions and sex.

Once registered, you can post your problem or poll question, and then it will be available for others to view and offer advice (using the alias name you provide, as your e-mail address is not displayed). Other people with problems are also looking for guidance, so please assist wherever you can to help build up this community resource.

We reckon it is best to be as open as possible when it comes to discussing relationship problems, as lack of communication is the root cause of many a problem. We hope that you are able to support this site by contributing to the discussion topics - particularly those which haven't yet received a response.

A can of Coke (12 fl ounces/355 ml) has 39 grams of carbohydrates (all from sugar, approximately 10 teaspoons), 50 mg of sodium, 0 grams fat, 0 grams potassium, and 140 calories.

The exact formula of Coca Cola's natural flavorings (but not its other ingredients, which are listed on the side of the bottle or can) is a trade secret. The original copy of the formula was held in SunTrust Bank's main vault in Atlanta for 86 years. Its predecessor, the Trust Company, was the underwriter for the Coca-Cola Company's initial public offering in 1919. On December 8, 2011, the original secret formula was moved from the vault at SunTrust Banks to a new vault containing the formula which will be on display for visitors to its World of Coca Cola museum in downtown Atlanta.

A popular myth states that only two executives have access to the formula, with each executive having only half the formula. The truth is that while Coca Cola does have a rule restricting access to only two executives, each knows the entire formula and others, in addition to the prescribed duo, have known the formulation process. On February 11, 2011, Ira Glass revealed on his PRI radio show, This American Life, that the secret formula to Coca-Cola had been uncovered in a 1979 newspaper. The formula found basically matched the formula found in Pemberton's diary.

Coca-Cola is the most popular and biggest-selling soft drink in history, as well as the best-known product in the world.

Created in Atlanta, Georgia, by Dr. John S. Pemberton, Coca-Cola was first offered as a fountain beverage by mixing Coca-Cola syrup with carbonated water. Coca-Cola was introduced in 1886, patented in 1887, registered as a trademark in 1893 and by 1895 it was being sold in every state and territory in the United States. In 1899, The Coca-Cola Company began franchised bottling operations in the United States.

Coca Cola might owe its origins to the United States, but its popularity has made it truly universal. Today, you can find Coca-Cola in virtually every part of the world.

Global Brands Include: Coca Cola, Coca-Cola Light, Coca Cola Zero, Diet Coke, Fanta, Minute Maid, POWERADE, Sprite, and vitaminwater.
