Artist picture
Singer-songwriter, arranger and producer: acoustic contemporary folk but ranging into rock/blues/country/jazz/humour...all very eclectic, I'm afraid!
Martin Stirrup Singer/songwriter An old folkie who got back into it... These days I sing and play guitar(s) and other stringed instruments, then score and orchestrate where appropriate. My taste becomes increasingly eclectic ranging from finger-picked folk through country to soft rock mixed in with a few more alternative and eccentric numbers, including the odd novelty foxtrot...

Story behind the song
Delhi gets incredibly polluted in the autumn - but the monsoon rains clear the air (eventually...)
Lyrics
Pollution FCGG C FCGC G C I got a tickle in my throat and my nose is getting runny I'm fuzzy in my head and I'm feeling rather funny If I look out the window I can't see too far Just like I'm sitting in a smoked glass jar CF CGG G6-7 CF CGC G C So let the west wind blow from the open sea Bring the cool clean air for my olefactory Let the rain come down wash the dust away With the help of mother nature Il'l get through another day There's smoke in the air from the burning stubble Mixing with the dust from the building rubble There are too many cars pumping petrol fumes Seeping through the window as I'm sitting in my room So let the north wind blow from the snowy hills If it clears the air I'll put up with the chills Let the monsoon come and purge the sky We trust to mother nature soon to clarify I love the water but I get a shiver When I think of what might be floating in the river Washing on down to the once clear sea Mixing with the leakage from the factory So let the rain fall down from a thunderous sky Wash away pollution that is stinging my eye Let the rivers flow through the marshy ground And hope that mother nature turns it all around Instrumental break CGAmDmG GAmFGGGG
