A Monkey?

Can you hear that? Its the sound of a man, singing. Its a cold day in December, and hes got a sore throat. He's standing there on a street corner - the wind blowing his hair everywhere - singing his husky heart out for money, whilst a little monkey plays a tiny piano next to him. Another monkey is acting as a metronome for this troupe. Sound fun? If the answer is no, then well done, please turn back now.

This mental image has been recorded and packaged as a song called 'Since I Told You Its Over'. Buy if you must, but be warned. Its boringp - ossibly, from a musical point of view, its a nice little piece filled with lush piano harmonies and various slight counter-melodies in its background. I found it to be some of the most tedious listening I've ever had in my life.
