The words of the wonderful world of Butterfly Polite
ButterflyPolite has had a fresh lick of paint behind the scenes. (i.e. undercoat).
This cyber decorating means that we can TWITTER, provide you with an RSS feed, and invite you to our FORUM to discuss this that and the other.
There is no excuse not to know what we are up to.
Revamping all things webly for ButterflyPolite. This is not as exciting as one might think.
We now have a Twitter ( www.twitter.com/butterflypolite ) where you can “follow us”. This is akin to stalking, but in a very cyber ‘lightweight’ way. ButterflyPolite are of the opinion that stalking should be done by sitting with binoculars and a [...]

I have an electric toothbrush, and have found that if I press it against my teeth and hold it there then the vibrations of my jaw make me ‘hear’ it in my ear very loudly. This sensation is quite amazing, and by pressing harder or softer I can vary the note.

Alert! Alert! There is a leak!
ButterflyPolite have been recording in a secret bunker, with n.d.a.’s signed and security staff on the door. If your name is not down, you are not coming in. So what is that I hear, coming from the link just below these words?
It is a brand spanking new recording, somehow leaked [...]
…or “How I Ended Up Writing A Solo Album”.
When it was released in 2006, I got the book “Game On! From Pong to Oblivion, The 50 Greatest Video Games Of All Time”. I quite like videogames, but am certainly not interested (or rich) enough to buy new releases, so this book seemed to offer an [...]
Still not caught up on the recording side. But am going great guns on writing.
Cavalcade 5 and 6 written, and recorded to some degree.
In other news I am progressing reasonably well over at the RPM Challenge. Head on over if you are interested.
I am a cheat. There, I admit it. This week sees Sarah abroad, meaning I can’t finish the recording of 09.05 to the level I wanted - it currently has a shoddy vocal by me, still singing an early draft of the lyric. Yuck. Imagine if I had put that on the premium-rate phone line!* [...]
For all the love we (the individuals) have for ButterflyPolite there are other things that also take up our time. What with the butterfly effect all of the things we do in some way affect other things, and these in turn affect the others.
As well as continuing the Cavalcade of BP songs, I have also [...]
This week’s song has proved a difficult beast, and has had two (2) false starts. Perhaps these will be returned to on other weeks, as both ideas were probably worthy of expanding into more than just a verse and chorus, but I could not seem to find the approach. There is always a [...]
