No column in the paper on Christmas Eve, so instead I’ve recorded a very special “Song For Christmas”. It’s about alternative therapists and you can play it here:

That’s “shen disturbance” in the second verse, in case you can’t quite follow the lyrical content.

My browser just kept wanting to close when I tried to listen. I’m sure no comment on the brilliance of your song. Perhaps the lyrics put somewhere would enlighten me.
Happy Christmas/Holidays/Seasons Greetings, etc.

I’m not sure about all the ‘aah aahs’. Listening on headphones, it’s a little bit ‘Heavy Breather’.

why don’t you turn this into a garageband tune for editing and remixing?

So that’s what all the moaning was, coming from your bedroom late at night!

Does anyone else think that the drums lend this a Rachel Stevens quality?

What about Emma Mitchell’s wonderful natural health column?
It’s the first thing I turn to on Saturday mornings.

Yes indeed Paul – you go from Ben’s column to the emma mitchell page and wonder what the hell is going on. A good doctor did recently write to the letters page in the Grauniad mag to point out that emma’s advice, to someone who had urinary prolems with many night time trips to the toilet, to drink mineral water rather than tap water. In the doctor’s letter he pointed out that there would be no difference between consuming tap water rather than mineral water for this ailment. It’s rather bizare when people write in to emma with some quite serious problems and are advised to breathe in some aromatic oil and all will be well.
