When I proudly showed my partner Kamilah \"Two Suns in the Sunset\" on YouTube on Sunday morning, I freaked out because the acoustic guitar entry was a good 5db down in level.
This may seem like a small thing to you, but its not to me. Call me obsessive-compulsive, but I cant watch it like that. So for anyone whos interested, this is a re-post with that small glitch corrected.

I had an idea to make an album of all the songs we did as encores on the US and Them tour.
We did \"Mother\" first.
Had to do it remotely because of Covid-19.
\"Two Suns in The Sunset\" is #2.
Hope you like it. I love it.
What a beautiful band they are.
Love

PS. That we allow Nuclear Weapons to exist in a world controlled by deranged sociopaths is, in itself, a deranged arrangement.
We are many they are few.
We could just say no, to the whole MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction) insanity.

Lyrics:
In my rear view mirror the sun is going down
Sinking behind bridges in the road
And I think of all the good things
That we have left undone
And I suffer premonitions, confirm suspicions
Of the holocaust to come
The rusty wire that holds the cork that keeps the anger in
Gives way and suddenly its day again
The sun is in the east
Even though the day is done
Two suns in the sunset, hmph
Could be the human race is run
Like the moment when the brakes lock
And you slide towards the big truck (Oh no!)
You stretch the frozen moments with your fear (*Scream*)
And youll never hear their voices (\"Daddy, Daddy!\")
And youll never see their faces
You have no recourse to the law anymore
And as the windshield melts and my tears evaporate
Leaving only charcoal to defend
Finally I understand
The feelings of the few
Ashes and diamonds, foe and friend
We were all equal in the end
