Musicians and mates Tim Riley and Damian Scott delve deep into their musical pockets to re-record one of their old songs.

    May 22 2026

    Abseil down the vertiginous sheer face of rock (and pop) with Tim and Damian in another adventure-filled episode of the podcast you never knew you needed.


    This time, join the lads as they recall the (Edinburgh) Fringe benefits of being in the world’s most underrated and undiscovered brilliant band.


    All descending rapidly toward a pristine reworking of Tim’s least favourite (and Damian’s most favourite) song: ‘The Things We Said In Bed’.

    Frankly, it’s all a bit ropey.

    Hold hands once again with Tim and Damian as they skip merrilythrough the swaying, golden fields of musical nonsense.


    Marvel at the lush, verdant gorgeousness of this week’s song, ‘Peter and Jane’. And hear the lads expound on the joys and merits of artistic collaboration, living in the Lake District, and Disney musicals.


    It’s another forty-odd minutes of audio pleasure. With a specific emphasis on the ‘odd’.


    LYRICS:

    Peter and Jane

    Music: Damian Scott

    Words: Tim Riley

    The daring deeds of a daring man

    Can’t impress you in the way I can

    The meek and mildness of human kindness

    Can get to you

    You

    Peter and Jane watch movies

    Shouldn’t we do that

    Peter and Jane go walking

    Wouldn’t that be good

    And when they’re stuck for words

    They gaze into each other’s eyes

    And when they’re stuck for words

    They gaze

    Lucky for me you especially

    Like to hear my voice constantly

    How long will it take

    For this ice to break

    Through

    Peter and Jane watch movies

    Shouldn’t we do that

    Peter and Jane go walking

    Wouldn’t that be good

    And when they’re stuck for words

    They gaze into each other’s eyes

    And when they’re stuck for words

    They gaze

    Now and again you seem to be

    A completely different person to me

    It’s so confusing

    I keep losing touch

    With you

    Peter and Jane watch movies

    Shouldn’t we do that

    Peter and Jane go walking

    Wouldn’t that be good

    And when they’re stuck for words

    They gaze into each other’s eyes

    And when they’re stuck for words

    They gaze
