(DON'T FORGET NANCY WAKE)
NEW SINGLE RELEASED NOW
As part of our plan to release 'singles' and impact releases, this is the first of a two-part series of individual tracks about inspiring women. The first one is, I believe, maybe the best song we've ever written and is inspired by the life of one Nancy Wake. Please go and find out about her after you have listened to the song, an amazing woman and hopefully she would appreciate our song about her life.
All we ask is you listen and let us know what you think

WHITE MOUSE (DON'T FORGET NANCY WAKE)
From cosmopolitan Marseilles 1939
Seduced by proficient
tango
Nancy married Henri,
wealthy so he was
Charm & sophistication
Champagne & caviar
Living on a hill on the
harbour
Who’d have thought that
Nancy Wake
Would turn into the White
Mouse?
Have you ever been afraid?
‘I’ve never been afraid in
my life’
Nancy Wake The White Mouse
said
500k through German
checkpoints
I guess that’s not being
afraid?
Nancy Wake The White Mouse
False papers & a purchased
ambulance
Trained at Scotlands MOD
She joined the French
Resistance
7,000 Maquis troops she
led
The SS nor the Gestapo
Could capture The White
Mouse
Who’d have thought that
Nancy Wake
Would turn into the White
Mouse?
Have you ever been afraid?
‘I’ve never been afraid in
my life’
Nancy Wake The White Mouse
said
A sleepless life on the
move
The Plateau was her great
win
Nancy Wake The White Mouse
On returning to Vichy in
liberation
She learned Henri had died
For he would not betray
her
Post war decorations came
And glory to this day
‘A lady till the fighting
starts’
Who’d have thought that
Nancy Wake
Would turn into the White
Mouse?
Have you ever been afraid?
‘I’ve never been afraid in
my life’
Nancy Wake The White Mouse
said
Her ashes scattered on the
hills she fought
‘That was good enough for
me’
Nancy Wake The White Mouse
said
The next song in the series is due mid-September and is about another inspiring woman's songs & lyrics, a film has been commissioned to go with it, so watch out for that 'impact' release very soon...
Thanks for listening and sharing
