Oh little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above your deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars drift by
Yet in the dark streets shining
An everlasting light
So might it be a light that shines
On all of us tonight?
Oh little town of Bethlehem
We live in troubled times
When beasts and thieves quote holy books
To justify their crimes
It seems they have forgotten
We're all of us the same
We're all of us but one small child
With different faiths and names
Oh holy child of Bethlehem
Descend to us we pray
Remind us all that God is love
Remind us every day
And let all children play in peace
Where no one builds a wall
Where soldiers cannot hurt them
And no more bombs will fall
Oh holy child of Bethlehem
And every place on earth
We all have been this miracle
The miracle of birth
We too are Christmas angels
We too are that bright light
Let's promise now to live in love
Tonight and every night
Oh little town of Bethlehem
Could we be free at last
Let's open our hearts to the world
Forgive what's in the past
Let mutual suspicion be banished for all time
The greatest gift we all could give
Goodwill to all mankind.
Trad./ Hogarth
Amazing tour! I just got home. Please read on... A Christmas present for Bethlehem, Hello everyone. I ask you again to try and find a few pounds to make a Christmas present for the Hope Flowers School in Bethlehem - a school healing and teaching young children to live in peace. Hope Flowers is doing great work in very difficult circumstances and desperately needs whatever support - however small - you can give. I will personally be helping, and Marillion also have plans to raise some money. With the love of our family, we can rise above anything. Happy Christmas to all! h https://onepercentclub.com/en/initiatives/activities/details/funding/7071/bethlehem-children
Greets from Liverpool!
Great to be in this barmy city again. We've been rehearsing with Sam, Emma, Nicole, Maia, Meg and Annemie in preparation for our forthcoming tour which begins on Friday at Liverpool Philharmonic. I was abused last night by a character on the street who took exception to me using my iPhone and called me a poser! I was saying goodnight to my wife! Hysterical. Liverpool's got an energy for sure and much of it is crazy. I love it. Rehearsals are going well and the spirit amongst band, additional musicians and crew is one to be envied.
See you soon, if you're catching a show.
One love
Hello. Lord above! Two posts in a week! (sorry I'm so crap at all this!)
Thanks to those who showed up for the John Lennon birthday gig on Wednesday at the Hard Rock Hotel. It was for War Child and owing to several mix up's and untogethernesses I'm not sure that anyone had the chance to donate.
So whether you were there or just wished you had been, check out the link below and please send something. Spare a thought for all those poor kids in Syria right now.
Love and hope in a seemingly hopeless world

Hello loves,
I will be singing a couple of John Lennon songs at this event on Wednesday night in the new Hard Rock Hotel, Marble Arch, London. It's for the War Child charity. Pop in if you're passing :o]

Greetings Pop-pickers,
Well, my romp through 80's pop stardom ends this evening in Nottingham when I'll play my concluding show with 80's legendary artist and genius producer Trevor Horn. What a lovely band he has assembled! It would take me all morning to list them and enthuse about their playing and spirit. Somehow Trevor has had his pick of band members from Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Eric Clapton, Dire Straits, 10CC, Seal, Bee Gees, George Michael, Argent, err.. Marillion, and that's just for starters! Everyone has been good natured and very appreciative of my howling which has given my confidence such a boost considering they're all "top of the cone" characters themselves. I hope I can do it again some time.
By day, Marillion have been in the studio jamming and good accidents (from which the next album will be written) are happening daily so out tails are up!
I'll disappear to Norway on holiday soon (with chums from Gazpacho) and then remain studio-bound for the rest of the summer and Autumn before getting back together live with our fabulous sextet of classical players in November.
Have a great summer y'all.

Hello all,
Just got back from Guadalajara after my Latin American solo jaunt. Pretty intense and gruelling stuff (no days off, entire airlines vanishing in Argentina, untold baggage-handling eccentricities and, upon my return to England, my car breaking down on the M4!) but fabulous audiences who gave me so much love and appreciation. If you caught one, thanks for being there. I'm now recovering, trying to absorb the jet-lag and get my ducks in a row for the return to the studio with Marillion and a brief UK tour with genius producer Trevor Horn and his amazing band.
Hello all you fabulous Latin Americans!!
I'm coming to South America and Mexico to play naked! Don't panic, I'll be wearing clothes, but it's me, a microphone, a piano and a bunch of friends... YOU, if you like!
An intimate evening of music, chat, and possibly tequila. It will be exquisite.

Hello you beauties,
Greetings from Montreal. Thank you for the birthday messages on my guestbook. Made my sleepy jet-lagged morning. I'm missing home already but I'm certainly not short of love.
Arcs of light between insulated things ...that could light up the world.
Love and hugs
Mr h
