The Mr. Hoppity Song

A song about my mental health and an imaginary bunny. For my Sister. For my Father. And for Patrick. I grew up with my father telling my sister and I stories. Most of these were about a rabbit called Mr. Hoppity and his friends Gaggle Goose and Dormouse who would come and visit us at our family home and we would go on adventures together. These were such fond memories and my dad taught me how and why stories are so important. As the years have passed and life has confronted me with it's various trials and difficult complexities I think it's important to remember the power of stories, storytelling, and being positive against the odds. I wrote this song for my sister to help her to remember to keep smiling and that Mr. Hoppity was very much so still alive in us... And has many more adventures to join us on. My dear friend Patrick Sanders was going to help me make a music video for this song which was going to be very like our show 'A Boy & His Box' in style. But alas, this was never to be. So I wanted to share this song with all of you and fondly remember my Father and Patrick, two fabulous storytellers that are gone but will never be forgotten. So if you ever feel like things are getting on top of you then give this song a play and hopefully it will bring a smile to your face. And if not then there are many amazing local charities and people you can talk to including: Mindwise at: http://www.mindwisenv.org And Carecall at: d.mullan@carecallwellbeing.com So play this, share it, and smile everyone.
