Songs from the Black Country

Some description – Skally

The Black Country

A song inspired by Baggeridge colliery, memory, history, and identity

I Love You Tonight

A grey Midlands town on a Tuesday night. The Sun’s not quite down, but we’ve got the streetlights

Kissing Gate

There’s a public footpath, behind a cemetery

Baby Blue

Cuz with time, you’ll be fine – dow yow worry baby blue

The Boxing Match

My little baby, recession’s back in fashion -and you better hope it’s really love when you no longer rouse the passion

Provincial Kareoke Queen

Bar takings are on the slide, we’ll never make the good pub guide

The Man Who Built His House on the River

They said you’ll never wash your sins away in this river, because the water is too heavy with your own blood

Bethesda Street

Back-to-back, a hundred rows, of houses built from the same stones
