    2) Sitting in a Flat

    This upbeat track tells the story of a man looking back on his life. The arrangement on this track is brilliant. The sound effects and intruments used are mesmerizing. Matt nails this one with his very masculine but soothing vocals. Once again backing vocals are outstanding, showcasing Matt wonderfully. Matt's songwriting has raised the bar. Reminicent of days gone by when songs took you on a journey.

    3) Sometimes

    "Sometimes" digs deep and dirty into your soul. It has a rock feel with a touch of creole added for good measure. Close your eyes and be taken inside the gorgeous intrumentation. Matt makes a home in your blood stream. This is a tasty songwriting accomplishment, showing just how exceptionally versitile Matt Muldoon really is. His vocals are addictive and leave you craving for more!
