MICK NADIN SENSES SOME IRONY IN OUR "FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS"

Mick strolled into the PBGB Shed a while back with a set of lyrics to a song called 'First World Problem'. We liked the lyrics and set about sussing out a groove or two that we thought might fit the bill.

Before too long ( to quote Paul Kelly ), we settled on what we thought was the right feel and got into it.

Mick says the song is about the lament some relatively well off people display when things don't go quite to their liking. Problems with the kids borrowing the cars, trees blocking their views, downturns on the stock market etc. etc. Things that really, in the current state of the world are not really as challenging as the problems facing people in, for example, Gaza or Ukraine.

We should moan about the price of eggs !!

Anyway, we had a lot of fun putting the song together and hope you like the result.
