Team Sheet

I sit here with the tracklisting for my second album "The Major and the Minor".
Narrowed down to 10 simple songs from a possible 18. How would I feel if I didn't make the team? I doubt there's an easy way to let the others down and let them know that yes, they'd come a long way but they didn't quite make the final cut. We're sorry, better luck next time. I can say however that they each hold a special place in my heart and that though they may be gone they are most certainly not forgotten.

The game that I'm fielding this team for isn't a cup-final, nor is it a 1st place decider, nor for that matter is it a relegation battle. In my eyes the team that these songs play for are simply looking for a playoff place, a chance to be a part of something greater.

More often than not, it's down to the decisions that the manager makes that pushes the team as far as it can go, and like any good team It's bigger than it's individual players.
