It can be heard at www.broadjam.com/BillyRoss.

Billy says it can be a tricky and time-consuming business finding suitable composers/songwriters, and he is always looking for new collaborators to work with. The song in question was worked on over the internet, between Pukekohe, where Billy (an ex-Scot) now lives, and Martin who lives south of London!

Song lyrics can also be viewed at www.sharemylyrics.com/Billy_Ross, for those interested in possible collaboration.

Billy stresses that completed songs are demos, and are open to interpretation, by anyone who may be interested in using them. Some in fact require additional work, but have been made available to illustrate the possibilities.

Billy is also a member of the ISA (International Songwriters Association) and APRA, who provide valuable help and assistance to songwriters and musicians.
