About

DON MCGLASHAN & THE SEVEN SISTERS - BAD BLOOD

PLEASE NOTE: THIS PAGE IS NOT MAINTAINED BY DON DIRECTLY, BUT ALL MESSAGES AND COMMENTS ARE PASSED ON TO HIM.

Don McGlashan is one of New Zealand's favorite songwriters, both at home- with five entries in APRA's "NZ's Top 100 Songs Of All Time", and abroad - the Mutton Birds album "Envy Of Angels" made the UK Sunday Times top ten list when it was released in 1997.

His first band, Blam Blam Blam, had a string of top 20 singles in the early eighties and a No. 4 album. Don's song "Don't Fight it, Marsha, It's Bigger Than Both Of Us" won Song of the Year in the 1982 NZ Recording Industry Awards.

After a year in New York as a drummer with avant-garde dance company Laura Dean Dancers and Musicians, he returned to New Zealand and founded the music/theatre duo "The Front Lawn" with Harry Sinclair. The Front Lawn toured Australasia, Europe and America from 1985-90, picking up many awards and rave reviews, including being called "a superb duo" by New York Times music critic Jon Pareles.

During the four years that The Mutton Birds lived in London, McGlashan's songs traveled well, even ending up in novels by best-selling Scottish writers Ian Rankin and Christopher Brookmyre. After the release of the band's fourth album "Rain, Steam & Speed", he was hailed by The Sunday Times as "one of Britain's most intelligent, poetic songwriters".

The first solo Don McGlashan album 'Warm Hand' is available now, on Arch Hill Records.

The Sheets we Fell Beneath

Remember when trouble’s lasted only as long as the story books end
And pages were drawn
And broken glass still reflects memories continuing
Up the very same stairs

And still I wonder where did we go wrong?
I laughed with you just yesterday
And yet that feels so long
I still sleep in the sheets we fell beneath
And still I wonder what did we do wrong?
It never seemed to feel that way
I never was that strong
But who am I to speak
Were we in love for just a week

And time just stands still
Without familiar smiles filling my cup to the brim
As I drink it all in
With pane so think, looking out to see you’re the only one
Being embraced by the sun

- J-Guden

Salut Don.

It took me too much time to discover your refined songwriting. I hope you'll find a way to record another solo album. And why not a gig in France ?!!!

Thanks,
V.
