In my latest Youtube series Joe Bates Explains Every Single Item He Owns, I talk about my faithful friend of a guitar which I've decided to throw away due to it reminding me of my lingering anger problems: youtu.be/I6XUZsrHSS0 I mention in the video my past as an aspiring musician. I wrote one original song during that 10 year period of trying to make it, it was for a song competition against my friends Philpott and Salt in 2004 (note: these are very typical names in Middlesbrough) and it features shout-outs to my friends who were the ones who would decide who would win. It'll be utterly baffling for anyone who wasn't at sixth form in Macmillan College in 2004, but for those who were, enjoy! Philpott and Salt's great songs are also still online - worth a look! https://www.soundclick.com/artist/default.cfm?bandid=204606

In my latest Youtube series Joe Bates Explains Every Single Item He Owns, I talk about my faithful friend of a guitar which I've decided to throw away due to it reminding me of my lingering anger problems: https://youtu.be/I6XUZsrHSS0 I mention in the video my Wuthering Heights cover which I did for a song competition against my friends Philpott and Salt in 2004 (note: these are very typical names in Middlesbrough). So here is a song released by a 17 year old Kate Bush, made arguably better by a then 18 year old Joe Bates!
