There are loads of great Glitter/Leander songs - but sadly unplayable now.

I've heard that Mike Leander's widow suffers owing to lack of royalties. Just as well Leander wrote the harp part and string arrangement for the Beatle's "She's Leaving home" (among lots of other good stuff).

For me it's a song that I discovered only a few years ago but has soon as I heard/saw it it just struck me hard.

Land of Confusion by Genesis.

This is because of two reasons. Firstly because of the superb comedy video that featured the Spitting Image puppets at the time.

But secondary (and more importantly) the words are just so RELEVANT!

This song first came out over 30 years ago-and yet the lyrics are so PROFOUND that they probably have more of an impact and meaning now days then back in the 80s!

See what you think....

I must've dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet
They're moving into the street.

Now did you read the news today?
They say the danger's gone away
But I can see the fire's still alight
There burning into the night.

There's too many men
Too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can't you see
This is a land of confusion?

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in.

Ooh Superman where are you now
When everything's gone wrong somehow
The men of steel, the men of power
Are losing control by the hour.

This is the time
This is the place
So we look for the future
But there's not much love to go round
Tell me why, this is a land of confusion?

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in.

I remember long ago -
Ooh when the sun was shining
Yes and the stars were bright
All through the night
And the sound of your laughter
As I held you tight
So long ago -

I won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're not just making promises
That we know, we'll never keep.

Too many men
There's too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can't you see
This is a land of confusion?

Now this is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth fighting for.

This is the world we live in
And these are the names we're given
Stand up and let's start showing
Just where our lives are going to.

Like I said it's just so relevant now more then ever!
