'Isolation' was re-recorded for entry into neworderonline's 'Community 2' competition.
Most of the tracks are works-in-progress - those uploaded here are the most finished so far & even then 'Use Me' is limited by using only the guide vocal.
NEW track uploaded 3-Dec-08 - http://www.last.fm/music/D-plus/_/Shoot+Through+The+Space It's free to listen like the previous 3 uploaded. It's an instrumental I did back in 2004 which I only finished off this week - as a break from trying to come up with new stuff!
I've finally started working on a few NEW tracks - still early stages yet, working titles so far include:
"All Over Again" (is instrumental at the moment, but I have a few lyric ideas)
"Reflect On Me" (will probably be a 'Slits' track)
"Face Down" (about drink)
Plan is to do some rough drafts & post these here in the autumn - all if I can find the time!
(Didn't get the time so new plan now is to try to record these over the holidays.)
Use Me

Use me
The lyrics to D-plus's song Use Me describe the feeling of being used by someone and the frustration that comes with it. The singer is addressing the person who is using them, calling them "vile" and expressing their dislike for the way they are being treated. The repetition of the phrase "you use me" emphasizes the feeling of being taken advantage of and used solely for the other person's benefit. The singer also acknowledges that they have done things for the other person but have not received the same treatment in return, and that everything they thought they knew about the relationship was a "fake story." Throughout the song, the singer pleads for help and closure, but also seems resigned to being used.
The lyrics of Use Me suggest a complex and potentially toxic relationship, where one person is using the other without concern for their feelings or well-being. The song explores themes of power dynamics, manipulation, and emotional pain. The repetitive nature of the lyrics emphasizes the feeling of being trapped and powerless in the situation, while also conveying a sense of desperation and longing for help. Ultimately, the song is a powerful and emotional expression of the pain caused by being used by someone you care about.
