Well, firstly, apologies to my legions of fans - I think there's 3 including my 2 cats - but I am going to have pull out of this competition. And, no, it's not 'cos I'm worried I couldn't duke it out with Mr Caro for the best rock version of Nowhere Man (alright maybe I was a little worried on that front!) but because in my attempts to put a new slant on the song, I changed many chords, the tempo, and the whole god damn melody to boot, and it sounded pretty good and very far removed the original, so I thought to myself, why don't I just put new words to this and make it the 12th song on my album? (Mental Energy out on iTunes June 09).

So many thanks for starting this competiton and thanks to all those who voted for Nowhere Man, as I got a new song out of it.

Good luck to everyone else still taking part.
