Lads a laugh n a good n Handsome chap with hypnotic
eyes Takes his time Then leaps and loves you Wild as any simple child Present in his presence Stakes his claim Then has it at you Once – he’s got you, He will hold you In his admirable expertise Sways you with a rolling
beauty Lifts you with a
sweetness/sureness Wrings you, flings your heart
about Feel every word Sing as if we own you - our
Dan As we sing as if we always
knew you We stand, command us, take us
there Dan Webster The Dan Webster Band Dan’s songs Always felt special To me and to you Nustling within us Letting us live lively Vocals holding us Starting anew Capturing the moment that’s Welded to our heart Wonderful, melodic That hook! Tucking us into a state of
sway Now! I hear what people say About rhythm and depth The beauty that is Clare Beating our hearts Freeing our inner rhythm They say it is all new to
them Now that they’ve heard the
album Haunting your inner you with
mastery Genius guitar we Are enthralled by Dynamic eye-dazzling subtlety Bouncing out of a bundle of
beautiful talent They say he is cute, lovable Stands out without doubt Flouting the laws of
mundanity Making raw talent fly free –
wonderfully “We’ve got to go and see
him,” They say, - “Wonderful album” “He’s so gifted and handsome” Oh They are talking about Dom! ………………………………………………….. Gerraway they are all grand The Dan Webster Band And the
earlier poem I often work with this next
act Even though he’s less than
half my age And at his cheeky chappy
antics I, parental, tend to rage “Don’t do that!” “Get on with it!” “Less of your chirpy chat” Stuff like that Well, he does go on a bit But His songs Stop you flat His singing is, Crystaline (You can thank Nick for that) “Brill you are” “Should be on telly” – The Hussars audience Jerry Scott said, (On BBC radio) “You Are gonna be everywhere.” “Sweet, soulful, melodic, (Minster FM), All you could want from a
songwriter” This BBC Award Winner (Ask him about that later) “Powerful stuff” His songs Made a hard-nosed journalist
cry And the guy’s Dad sobbed An even harder-nosed reporter From even further up on high “This is a guy you have just
got to see” “Reflective” “Thought provoking” Trouble is, those journalists Had come to do a write up on
me! Like
his CD, When you listen, You’ll be lost Into the maelstrom Of life, love and music, You’ll be tossed Lost Searching Feeling Reaching If you are looking for a
moment That makes you feel happy, If it goes on forever This is it Look no further A huger welcome I love him like a brother Well OK I act like I’m his
Father Welcome Dan Webster “Come
one” “Don’t take all day” “Get over here” Raise your arms in the air,
smile, while they cheer” |
