   About Martin Valentine
Hello. I am Martin Charles Burchill Valentine. History records that someone called me was here born in 1970 but I prefer to think it was October 1983. This is my fifth life - it started on September 12 2005. So far this has the potential to be the best one. I'm here to share my songs with you. I will when I've finished them. That could take a while. In the meantime, I'll put up some old tunes to amuse you. Enjoy.

I'll hold you to that, you and your stick men are officially in now. And there's no shame in liking big country, as you well know.

Oooooh, Lord, where did the feeling go....

Haha. Do you know what its a reference to? I imagine some people will assume its some kind of innuendo.

The song is about zombies and the title refers to the first resident evil game.
