about
What is a "Status Update Song"?
"Status Update" comes from Facebook and other services where you can write short updates about what you are doing. "Status Update Songs" are the musical version of this and are thus short songs recorded rough and ready and on the fly. They are often about everyday stuff that happens. Hopefully some of them are poignant.
This album contains two versions of each song, 1 "deluxe" full band recording and 1 "original" rough recording.
Most of the originals Peter has done have been recorded on an iphone and have taken about an hour all up to write, rehearse, record and post. Often they are recorded in unusual locations such as a forest, an airport, a beach or a train station. They run for around a couple of minutes each.
Which is not to say that they are slap dash. Peter does try and maintain standards.
This is the first album of Status Update Songs.
Download includes Handwritten Lyric Sheet, Inside Cover Liner Notes and Back Cover Artwork.

- Track Name: No 1 Fashionable Grave (deluxe version)
- Kids want what other kids have, mother friends buy, the same model pram/ I guess as you age, some things don’t change, when I die I want a fashionable grave.
- Track Name: No 2 If you dont like horror (deluxe)
- Feeling optimistic/My 12 year old has gone ballistic/ and if you don’t like horror, you’ll have to go up to the 2nd floor/Cause it is my favourite genre, I hope that doesn’t bother you.
- Track Name: No 3 Savings Are slavings (deluxe)
- Savings are slavings/that’s what the boy at the bike shop said/What would he know, the little bambino, with skin like bloody tissues and a hat like women’s underwear/Thanks for the joke, that’s what matters the most, keeps us human, when need is at hand/Maybe he does know maybe I’m raving, should be listening, about savings and slavings.
- Track Name: No 4 Lollypop Lady (deluxe)
- When you are an adult can you use the lollypop lady?/When you are an adult should you use the lollypop lady?/What are my responsibilities?/It’s not clear to me.
- Track Name: No 5 Burnt Coffee (deluxe)
- I don't want to work for someone who sends their coffee back when the milk is a little burnt/And it may seem trivial/It may seem kinda small/but little things are big things over time/So I'm gonna use the little things to make up my mind.
- Track Name: No 6 A song about Anvil (deluxe)
- I don't want to be like Anvil/Who after 30 years of struggle/Didn't see they were successful/Though so many people loved them so/They just never felt they'd made it/And like a drunk that doesn't know they've had enough/They kept going till they got frustrated/And it stopped them seeing what they really had/So I don't want to be like Anvil/I don't want to be like Anvil.
- Track Name: No 7 All technology (deluxe)
- Technology can break/A peg or a string/A pedal or a chain/A heart or a brain/Your voice as it sings/There's no number you can ring/Put on a brave face/You know as well as me/Technology can break/And it's as plain as plain can be/It's all technology.
- Track Name: No 8 The surgeon (deluxe)
- Strange they can't see me/I was the same I could not see/If there were a god with a mind how lonely that would be/Looking down upon the city I'm surgeon looking at beating heart/I feel so helpless/But I do appreciate it's beauty/And that's enough for me.
- Track Name: No 9 gansta coffee (deluxe)
- The guy at the coffee shop/had a gansta haircut/and he took so long to fill my cup/and when he bought it over/it spilled over/and he was sorry/but I understood.
- Track Name: No 10 Never less beholden (deluxe)
- I'm travellin' on my way back again/I'm a rolling stone and I'm heading back home/But I feel so free I take little luxuries/And I don't mind waiting 'cause I'm feeling creative/Killing time suits me just fine/'Cause you're never less beholded as when you're rockin' and rollin'/never less beholded as when you're rockin' and rollin'.
- Track Name: No 11 St.Kilda (deluxe)
- Woh oh St Kilda/People are different down here/Or maybe it's just that they wear less clothes/woh oh St. Kilda/There is a shop at the end of the pier/They say it's a restaurant now/A restaurant is nice, but it's no kiosk.
- Track Name: No 12 good parents (deluxe)
- Good parents back good kids/it makes perfect sense/what a pleasure to hang out/run around and scream and shout/head to the beach/we'll squeeze in/if you can find the dog/we can bring him/we'll catch a wave/I'll fix your thong/when we get home/we'll put a video on.
- Track Name: No 13 perks (deluxe)
- Perks, give me the works/Tennis, usb sticks, fitness centre/Passion is what we're aiming for/But I'm still grateful for perks.
- Track Name: No 14 Warm Rain (deluxe)
- Warm rain/rivers in the drain/open the window/I'll leave the music off/ the garbage truck came early/and I went out in my pjs/and it really felt so lucky/to have an excuse to go out/in the warm rain/see the rivers in the drain/open the window/I'lleave the music off/today.
