about

Gary Watts and Andrew Stirling-Brown re-unite as Nature of Wires’ original line up, to record and release new single ‘No Need’ – the first new song created by the duo since 1993!

Andrew says: I’d always wanted to write a ‘list’- type song, like Billy Joel’s ‘We Didn’t Start The Fire’, or ‘Hello’ by The Beloved. It took me a while, but eventually, ‘No Need’ was the result.

As the cover art might suggest, the song is a ‘scream out’ at the world.

There’s a lot of anger and frustration out there at the moment. Lots of ‘They shouldn’t do that!’ ‘We don’t need this!’ ‘WTF!’, etc., and I wanted to reflect that, lyrically. I went for a lot of random phrases, some humorous, some more serious, all wrapped up in a retro-electro, surprisingly positive sounding, up tempo track!

If ever covers of this song are made in the future I hope the artist or band will add their own lyrics, which will mean something to them and their time; that’s the best way to keep a song alive. It’s a bit of fun, with a serious edge, which I hope people will enjoy.

lyrics

No need to shake your booty
No need to hip your hop
No need to download for money
No need for iPad/ear pod…Oh, yeh, yeh!

No need for celebrity
No need to make you a Star
No need for TV reality
No need to speedcam the car!

No need to fake orgasm
No need to hit the spot!
No need for drugs and violence
No need to get shot!

No need to text temptations (no need, no need)
No need to think you’re hot!

No need to play for millions
No need to scratch your card
No need to vote for parties
No need to make your mark

No need for confrontation (no need, no need)
No need to bite so hard!

No need for modern romance, modern science,
All that modern art (no need, no need)

No need to go Grease Lightning, Summer Lovin’,
You’re the one that I want (you’re the one that I want!)

No need for COVID 19
No need for heart disease
No need for global warming
No need for plastic seas!

No need for clean electric
No need for nuclear power
No need for biometrics
No need to crash that tower

No need to take some action (no need, no need)

No need to walk so tall
No need to rise and fall
No need for a crystal ball
No need for nothing at all
