When I hit 30 I had a real feeling that I had achieved very little - no career or family or security. The words in this song talk about all the things I wanted to do, but no matter what path I chose I would never be the man
I want to be. When I look back now, I realise I was doing ok, travelling the world playing in a great band.
Thanks to Ben Demerath who I haven’t seen for many years, and who was happy to convey my youthful pain!
