I am reading Paul's book "how To Make Gravy" at the moment and all I can say is that if you have ANY interest in PK or even music in Australia at all you NEED to read this book. It's brilliant. The man is a freakin' genius, he can make a letter to his girlfriend sound like he's giving your soul good advice. Legend.

I kind of get what you mean, if theres a better story teller in songs than him I haven't heard of him, but if I may, he is a thinking persons muso, his lyrics are of rear depth, and he certainly aint aiming for the charts when he pens them.
