about

Originally released on Alan Bonner's 2nd studio album 'Balladeer" 'Talia' received airplay on BBC6 Music and has become a firm live favourite.
"Talia" will be re-released as a single on 11 June 2014 to mark the birthday of the girl the song was written about.

lyrics

Jack Daniel'sbottles with candles stuck outa them
Hungover sundays, Our dressing gowns almost lived in
Iggy Pop, David Bowie, Debbie Harry and lots of red wine, lots of red wine
Cocaine nights on the pavements of Camden Town
Every Sunday you nurse me through my come down
Always there with a smile and a cuddle and lots of red wine, lots of red wine.

Talia you're the best friend a no one like me could wish for
Drink me under the table and then pick me up from the floor
Drink me under the table and roll all my cigarettes for me
And I'll make the tea

Talia you're the girl I would marry if girls were my thing
But the're not so there won't be a wedding or ring
But there will be a party, just for the hell of it
That's what we do best

Envelope me in you're loveliness
The tangles, the bleach in your hair
Borderline alcoholic but nobody cares so let's go to the offie and buy some red wine

Danced our way through university and lost the plot at Glastonbury
All done with impecable style
Like Bonnie and Clyde with no guns and no violence
Just lots of red wine, lots of red wine

Na na na Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na Na na na na Na na na na na
Na na na Na na na na Na na na na Talia

Talia
