The Third Space

A very straightforward four-chord song of despair. The protagonist's love has left him and he is "Lost Without You".

Joe and I wrote this very easily, one evening at his house in Swansea. I had the riff (a simple C-Am-F-G progression; one of the most common and most used in rock-and-roll -- there's probably hundreds of songs written around this simple structure), Joe thought up the melody and together we wrote the words.

The idea was to write a really simple song with a really simple and common chord progression on a really simple, common theme -- unrequited love. I like to think we succeeded.

The final version was produced by column:inches (aka Steven Separovich)
