You can't deny there's a lot of it about and there are certainly numerous coffee shops in Phuket where 'The Gift' once enjoyed one of the daily specials around breakfast time.
It is also reported that he may have additionally indulged in a 'doppio'. Anyway, it was right there in that very coffee shop where this new song from the Gift's new experimental 'noughties' phase, 'Combat the Flesh' album, featuring possibly a new rendition of some timeless Alvin Stardust vinyls, 'Mocha' was born.
Love it or hate it, we think it'll cause a stir on the dance floors of RCA come Christmas.

A Statement from 'The Gift of Yahweh'
In a statemant made earlier today, Chairman of the CoB's Thai Fantasy Football wing , 'The Gift of Yahweh', gave his official blessing to the administrative reform group who recently ousted Prime Minister, Thaksin Shinawatra, erstwhile buddy of 'The Gift' yet now seemingly out of favour.
It appeared that the military had stressed that it had 'no intention of becoming the administrators of Thai Fantasy Football and would leave all of that to 'The Gift'.
The Gift maintained that, "Now the administrative reform group under the democratic system with 'The Gift' as the head of Thai Fantasy Football, comprising commanders of the armed forces and the national police bureau, has gained, without any resistance, full control of the situation in Bangkok metropolis and nearby provinces, everything will be just fine.
You can continue to go about your daily and fantasy lives as you wish and may tie yellow ribbons to soldiers guns or have your photo taken next to a tank. Up to you!"
Name that tune!

the bushpilots are back!
After four years of inactivity, we have decided to bring the band back together on a new website to be launched in early October. We will be attempting to re-master some of our old songs, produce videos for these and we will also be re-releasing our Christmas song, Yule Regret, which was made back in 2001 in downtown Tokyo, ready for Christmas 2006 with a tasteless video.
We will attempt to take ourselves too seriously, in true internet band website fashion so stay tuned for some awful shots of us in leather jackets leaning over expensive cars that aren’t our own or standing at the tops of multi-story car-parks in black and white.
We have not re-formed as we never disbanded. Check out our songs in the radio below.
Look out also for new music from 'The Gift of Yahweh' with his new 'Combat the Flesh' project. New single, 'Mocha' to be released online soon.
