about

Written on my old upright piano, Love Is A Virus is a kind of music hall love song comparing the state of 'being in love' to a heavy dose of the flu.
The title was a one liner I tossed out one night and then worked into the theme of this piece. Something of a salute to the one off novelty songs of yesterday.

lyrics

"Love is a virus, it's an emotional flu..."
