While
Firecracker 47 get back on their feet, their former drummer has landed on hers. Misty, generally known as
Mikki Moo, is planning on starting her own solo career.
"Jimmy [Bishop, DBM CEO] and I discussed it at length," says Mikki, "and we both agree that it's not over yet for me. I've got plenty of talent and life still left in me! It's not the end."
"Mikki's first song is 'Love Of My Life', a classy pop song with a simple beat, just Mikki's style. Nick [Biggs, Moronic Changeling drummer] and I helped her write it," says Bikki Hetestein, DBM's favourite songwriter. "She needed some help putting her emotions into words and music, but we got there in the end."
Love Of My Life (Biggs/Hetestein/Moo)
Love of my life thought I'd never ascertain
Abundant and rife love lay behind a curtain
Could not get in I never could work out how
Took it on the chin I never cared until now
When I found you I only set you aside
I thought you were just someone I lived alongside
I don't know what it was that made me decide
Baby you're mine
But I can see the veins inside my eyes
I feel the pains that I despise
It never wanes all it does is rise
Taken away from me
Why did this have to be
Because you're the love of my life
Love of my life one I wish I could smother
I feel so much strife now you love another
Dying for a kiss I demise for your embrace
So much I miss as that girl is in my place
You took priority over the one that I chose
I fell in love as I watched you repose
I couldn't believe you were just under my nose
Baby case closed
But I can see the veins inside my eyes
I feel the pains that I despise
It never wanes all it does is rise
Taken away from me
Why did this have to be
Because you're the love of my life
Taken away from me
Mistaken for somebody
Awaken today to me
Love of my life
Taken away from me
Mistaken for somebody
Awaken today to me
Fallen star
But I can see the veins inside my eyes
I feel the pains that I despise
It never wanes all it does is rise
Taken away from me
Why did this have to be
Because you're the love of my life
Taken away from me
Why did this have to be
Because you're the love of my life'Love Of My Life' will be released on Monday, the same day as Firecracker 47's single 'Melanie'. Mikki also plans to release her debut album on the same day as Firecracker 47's sophomore effort 'Going Out For A Quiet One And Coming Home With No Pants And A New Cat'. Mikki said, "I want to see who does better. It'll be - interesting." (Subtext. She wants to sell more copies than Roxy so that she wins over her, and Roxy is feeling the exact same way.)
Joshy Firecracker, Modi Blunt, Katie Kairiri and (grudgingly) James Kairiri are said to have wished Mikki good luck. Roxy Firecracker has not commented. This is probably a good thing.
