I’d like to share with you one of my favourite songs. It’s called Seeing Stars and it’s all about how you feel when you love (or are in love with) something so much it physically hurts.

This version that you’re about to hear was recorded at a couple of years ago. I love playing this song live as it always gets a great reaction every time I perform it.

I’ve included the lyrics here however, you can download the lyrics/chords as a PDF if you wish.

As you’ll gather from listening to the song I’m a real sucker for the Major 7th chord. Burt Bacharach has a lot to answer for.

Let me know what you think

Hold the phones and stop the press
This will be better than the rest
Coz my head is spinning
And I am seeing stars

You gave me life from a single breath
No truer words have now been said
Coz my head is spinning
And I am seeing stars

I feel so dizzy I need to rest
With this feeling I got in my chest
Oh, I see the world now
Through the eyes of love
Oh, my head is spinning
And I am seeing stars

I build a world in which you can live
And give you all the space to move within
But I’m hardly breathing
As my eyes well up with tears

I want to hold you in my arms
And drown in your presence
Your light and your love
Coz my head is spinning
And I am seeing stars

I feel so dizzy I need to rest
With this feeling I got in my chest
Oh, I see the world now
Through the eyes of love
Oh, my head is spinning
And I am seeing stars
Oh, my head is spinning
And I am seeing stars

My head is spinning
And I am seeing stars
