Cartoon tribute to Martin Phillipps - front man to the band The Chills. I've used an old photo of him from the army 80's. And the beginning of his song Sunburnt lyrics. Surrounding him and the words are elements of the album cover Kaleidoscope. They were fitting. Wearing his heart on his sleeve. Music through his mind. NZ flag.
Lyrics, SUNBURNT
I REACHED FOR THE SUN BUT THE SUN BURNT MY HAND I CLIMBED ON A MOUNTAIN THEN FELL ON THE LAND I SANG FOR A TIME WHEN THE SONGS WERE NOT OLD I STOOD IN THE STARLIGHT BUT THE STARLIGHT WAS COLD
My cartoon in today's www.thepost.co.nz/nz-news/3503...
The passing of Martin Phillipps, front man of The Chills, over the weekend has shocked and saddened the music industry and community. This is my small tribute.
