Featuring: LOIS. Could not have done this without you. Thank you so much. It's so much fun to do this together and a happy 18th birthday. I love you!

Bits 'n pieces is about my memories. How and where and with whom I played with as a kid. And what bit of memory is still there and what is not. (How do you know which part is not there anymore...) Everybody remembers there own pieces. And if you did some things together, you can fill in the blanks so now and then. If you did things by your self it's going to be a bit harder, I guess.

Bits 'n Pieces is a blues shuffle. So it is a pretty recognizable piece of music. A lot of songs are made with the same chord schema and feel. The chances of finding a similar piece of music is great. Of course the orchestration, melody and lyrics are unique for every verse or chorus and based on a composition from the '90s by myself. Lois takes the vocals once more.

Lyrics

Back in the time when even I was young
Playing with some friends out of the neighborhood
They were living in the same village I grew up
Not much to do compare to now

Fragments of your memory
Remember the good things
Everyone has their own story
In whole or in bits 'n pieces

On my bike in the bushlane
A bent to the left and then to the right
Up and down the hill, until you fell or caught
In barbed wire

Making the tracks different all the time
Springboard over a ditch
The someone in which you cauhgt some fish
Until they usually died

I tried to stay dry all afternoon
Quite a challenge given the above
At least you couldn't go that wet
Drying up or skipping dinner

Fragments of your memory
Remember the good things
Everyone has their own story
In whole or in bits 'n pieces

Looking for bullets on the infantry camp
Or build a hut in places nobody knew
They were all discovered and destroyed
With the broken pieces

Reading, Lego, Electric racetrack
Magic tricks, the board of game
Game of the goose or Ludo

Fragments of your memory
Remember the good things
Everyone has their own story
In whole or in bits 'n pieces

Fragments of your memory
Remember the good things
Everyone has their own story
In whole or in bits 'n pieces

​Fragments of your memory
