No Need For Secrecy by Liam the lemming This module started life as a 4-channel SoundTracker module, but I soon changed that when I got hold of a copy of ScreamTracker at an FTPsite - I made use of the extra channels and tried to embellish it a little. I reckon I succeeded. But then, I'm bound to say that aren't I? I rewrote my SoundTracker modules ages ago, then I uploaded them all to a site (ftp.brad.ac.uk) which then had to start deleting stuff because it was full. Damn. Good thing I discovered two sites from Leviathan (the composer of Dust To Dust). Hello's to everyone I know at uni, especially the HND2 crew, the BMS bunch, the law students, the freshers - wait a minute! I've got 100 lines of space for chat here, haven't I? Hmm, let's do that again, shall we? Right. Hello's to everyone I know at uni - namely Dave Rayner, Ian Slavin, Bryan Jones, Lee O'Brien, Jon Barker, Shereen Walters, Russ Threadgold, James Williams, Chris Bruce, Ruth Jump, Tom Baker, Dave Wild, Pete Mercer, Glenn Payne, Ste Jones, Justin Andrews, Chris Bruce, Andi Riley, Ivan Marshall and Dave and Arthur Goodman. Sorry if I missed you out, I have a lousy memory. :) ...Damn. Writer's block. :) I suppose I could mention why the song was written - the inspiration behind it, I mean. Well, it's like this... It was originally named The Darkest Secret. I wrote this song when I was on a real downer because I was keeping a secret about myself from all my friends. I wanted to tell them, but I was anxious about losing their friendship over it. Overanxious, as it turned out. About a month after writing the module, the strain became unbearable and I finally caved in. I told a friend who I thought could cope with it. He did, of course. Things just snowballed from there - within a week I had told almost all of my mates and it felt like I'd been rescued from a prison cell. The relief I got from their good reception of the news was indescribable. All my close friends know now. And I'm well used to it now - I've even got a sense of humour about it. So, as the song says, there's No Need For Secrecy now. So I can tell you, the listener. After all, there's nothing wrong with being gay these days, is there?____________ Liam the lemming ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
