So it's come to this Everything's adrift This world is coming to an end Won't you be my friend? Won't you be my friend? All the lights are out There's no one else about Is this how all things will end? And then you are my friend And then you are my friend Let's take a walk among the stars It doesn't matter who we are It doesn't matter who we are So it's come to this Everything's adrift This world is coming to an end Won't you be my friend? Won't you be my friend? Won't you be my friend? There is a world we want to live in And it's just around the corner store

Sticks and stones may break my bones But words can never harm me When I was young I was told You gotta be bold Now I'm not so sure I'm learning more and more Sticks and stones still break my bones But words they sure do hurt me It's been a long lonely journey It's been a long lonely way But I know I'm gonna make it I know I'm gonna make it I know I'm gonna make it some day Throw everything you got at me It means nothing, can't you see?

about

Mondo's double-sided single, recorded in March 2022 at DC Cardwell's studio in Northern Tasmania. Here's what some notable musicians have to say about the songs...

John Coleman (well known Tasmanian songwriter and singer):
"Beautifully melodic and lovely playing. Very alive!"

Tom Taylor (Gospel Recording Artist):
"Fantastic Mondo! One of your best! I like it! I've always been a fan of your writing and style! Always love The Beatles/George sound, and it also reminded me a little of America. The Moody Blues came to mind as well." (Re: World Adrift)

Pat Drummond (Lead guitarist from Ol’ 55):
"Very catchy mate, nice and jangly too. Byrds like."

David Minchin (The Innocents/The Giant Hamsters):
"Nice work!!! Good lyrics too (""throw everything you’ve got at me!""). I like them both very much. You do write nice toons… I still hum Molly Bond!"

Jeff Elbel : Musician/writer, producer, music columnist and an actual NASA Rocket Scientist:
"What a sweet song, Mondo. I hear some of the warmth and character that I always loved about my favorite Neil Innes songs here. The vocal arrangement is rich. Charming lyric. Nice touch with the jangly pop as usual." (Re: Sticks and Stones)

Marty Diekmeyer (original bassist for Daniel Amos/DA):
"I really like this one Mondo." (Re: World Adrift)

Dennis Rich (US music enthusiastic and friend to many indie artists):
"Fantastic little single!"
