When We Were Young When We Were Young
n John Burningham?s enchanting and truthful compendium of childhood the well known and the ... more
unknown contribute funny, moving, magical and
occasionally dark childhood memories. From Michael
Palin?s memory of seaside holidays with his dad
and Seamus Heaney?s evocation of a crashed
Cadbury?s chocolate van (?a trail of silver papers
up the road?) to the institutional upbringing of
the mixed-race child of a black GI in the 1950s
and a typical rural childhood in the Scottish
highlands, it is full of evocative memories. And
woven into the mix is a rich selection of
quotation and fifty more of John Burningham?s
witty and poignant drawings.  ?Thankfully, this
collection of new and classic childhood memoirs
steers well clear of sentimental mythology.
Instead, we have some refreshingly dark memories
of the wonder years ? other highlights come from
such diverse sources as Kofi Annan and Michael
Palin. The tales are entertaining in themselves
but their real value is how they elucidate the
adults the children grew into? Glasgow Herald

Thanks for all the songs!
Review of When We Were Young - Akira The Don by loserkid

Advantages: Every track is awesome, very unique
Disadvantages: Some of the songs take a while to grow on you

My favourite track has to be "Oh! (What A Glorious Thing)" (track ...
...a good mood everytime I listen to it. Like a lot of his music, a lot of the songs on this album are about serious issues, some controversial. "1 2 3 4 5 6 7" is about religion - in particular Christianity, the song "Dead Babies" is about abortion. Due to these controversial lyrics, especially the ones found in "Thanks For All The AIDs" lead to Interscope (the record label) deciding they weren't going to release the album because it was too politically ...
