Major Snagg is the invented name of the 'band' that perform all my own musical creations. (songs and instrumentals). I play guitars, bass, rudimentary keyboards, harmonica, and sing. Melody has always been important to me... lyrics and guitar solos have to say or communicate something. I create musical worlds that I hope that you dear listener, will also want to explore and live in for a few moments...or longer if you feel that way inclined.

Story behind the song
This is a song from Bill Nelson's album, Quit Dreaming And Get On The Beam. He'd well and truly moved on from the sound of his Be Bop Deluxe era but there was still amazing and inventive guitar licks in his new music.
Lyrics
A Kind Of Loving by Bill Nelson (1985)? Lights turn on and off In the back of mind They make me feel like a rebel, All the time ... Desire burns Like a fire in my hollow heart ... I always seem to be hanging 'round In the dark ... I need a kind of loving I can't refuse ...(x4) The spirit is willing But the flesh is weak, I start to stammer Almost every t-t-time I speak ... What can I say? I'm giving you no clues ... I've got the goods But nothing you can use ... I need a kind of loving I can't refuse ...(x4) Life could be so simple But nothing seems to change ... I'm like a stranger, I'm always feeling strange ... I'm so excited, I'm living on my nerves ... Is this a curse Or just what I deserve ... I need a kind of loving I can't refuse ...(x4)

Great cover! I liked BeBop de Luxe a lot and Bill was also very interesting as a solo artist. Your vocals are spot on here. You sure bring the 1980's back to life!

I uploaded the wrong version of this song yesterday but Michael had left a comment. So I've moved his comment from the earlier version onto this one. This version has a faster tempo and is better for it. MichaelDuran Posted 8 hours ago Song: A Kind Of Loving Excellent work here David this really ROCKS!
