A-T-3 223 Anne Clark - Changing Places
Anne Clark's second album Changing Places is split along two collaborations. Side A are performed with electronic musician David Harrow who Anne Clark produces her next couple of albums with. This side generates two landmark tracks Wallies (that sounds like proto-Pet Shop Boys) and Sleeper In Metropolis. All the tracks on Side B of Changing Places are with Vini Reilly, the whole side is wonderful, if you're a fan of Vini Reilly I recommend checking out all five tracks. I'm just going to share one

Anne Clark would be Nowhere without David Harrow
My writings regarding my work with Anne Clark and how it all went pear shape, please see:
https://substack.com/@petrock1 ~~~ or ~~~ WordPress starting with “When you're Anne Clark ...”
There are many other platforms I wrote the same to not have all the eggs in one basket.
With writing these and posting online, people comment or contact me, especially Germans who are Clark's main audience since 40 years. She never fully learnt German though, which seems to be normal for British or American people, no effort made and being used to everyone speaking English.
Some of the people who comment or contact me say they are just really only into the music, and not the texts. That explains for sure why no-one saw the mistakes of Anne's book “Notes Taken Traces Left”.
But it also shows that it's really due to David Harrow who wrote and produced many of the early hits, like two of many people's favourites, “Sleeper in Metropolis” and “Our Darkness”.
Tumblr media
David Harrow on Daily Bandcamp interview.
If you only take Anne Clark's spoken word, she wouldn't have gone anywhere far with it. It's the music that grabbed the poetry and thrust it into people's ear drums.
I wasn't keen on Anne's music/spoken word at first and had to “smoke” it into my ear, which I explain in “When you're Anne Clark ...”
And for some reason, Anne never mentions David Harrow compared to mentioning Charlie Morgan mainly, who sadly died early in his life and career.
Only Anne and David know why he seems forgotten, and he humbly mentioned on Facebook that it's nice his work is still played, after someone posted “Sleeper...” And even now, people still discover it for the first time, which is weird. But it might be the usual management issues who can't be bothered doing a proper job of promoting the artist they manage. Looking at Jeff Aug.
Tumblr media
UPDATE: This particular post of "Sleeper ..." with all the comments has disappeared now after my interaction with David Harrow. That's why I keep receipts. This is how it works when people, be it Anne Clark & Co or collaborators or fans don't want free speech. I've seen accounts with 100K followers disappear for campaigning about something legit, no hate speech, no call for violence etc. It's arbitrary and cowardly. Whoever has either more followings or a stronger voice gets smaller accounts shut down and posts deleted. But keep speaking out, it's just a normal day in the office when it comes to social media platforms. EXPECT to get shut down. Keep speaking/writing etc.
I wouldn't be surprised if it was Harrow who got it shut down to distance himself. Often in reality people then communicate in the bckground or meet up to brainstorm how to shut accounts down. Part of the public posts in my conversation with Harrow. My response regarding "wasting time" has to do with writing things off ones system to move on, and the responsibility artists have. Responsibility that I also mean in how careless Anne Clark is with her work and with people who work(ed) on her stuff.
Tumblr media
... cutting it short ...
Tumblr media
Sorry David Harrow, Anne Clark, colleagues, fans, friends etc. you can all dismiss me as a lunatic or bitter or whatever in your dictionary of definitions for me. You and Anne will meet up very soon and laugh about what I do, that's your prerogative. I know who I am and what I've survived and what I've been through. And I am not scared or worried about what people think. So, you guys stay in your bubble, and I continue to do what I want to do. I spread out my writings far and wide and don't keep all the eggs in one basket. Just please spare me of cowardliness. That'll be all.
But, back to Anne Clark, it's also an Anne Clark thing to not care properly, parallel to not looking after her book of mistakes and letting others butcher it.
. She was also followed around on and off for 10 years by a documentary maker who after 10 years came up with only 1 hour 20 minutes of documentary film. And Anne settled for that. It's currently (as in September 2024) at 6.5 out of 10 on IMDb.
If she was young, I'd say she has a lot of talent, the musicians produce incredible sounds, and she has a lot to go for. But she is in a comfortable bubble, mainly tours and works in Germany, then Europe for decades, playing the same venues year after year after year. And that's okay. Why exhaust yourself with bigger venues or further continents?
I now suggested to Clark to collaborate with Harrow again and even have him on stage. The fans would flip out. But Anne Clark ghosts people, once she either doesn't need them anymore, or they become inconvenient, or she finds someone more attractive or useful to her. Maybe that's what also happened to Harrow. And that was the last time I gave Anne suggestions, except, she needs a new proper manager.
But Anne Clark without David Harrow just wouldn't exist in the music scene. Harrow created these unique electronic sounds that distinguish Anne Clark from the rest of the early electronic acts. And I simply don't understand why he's never mentioned, unless he did something unforgivable.
But then, with Anne, many people do “unforgivable” things that gets them on the ghosting list or if you are lucky, she'll call the police on you. That's punk!
Just make sure you don't lose anyone close to you that might traumatise you.

Anne Clark / David Harrow
Through these city nightmares you'd walk with me
And we'd talk of it with idealistic assurance
That it wouldn't tear us apart
We'd keep our heads above the blackened water
But there's no room for ideals in this mechanical place
And you're gone now
Through a grimy window that I can't keep clean
Through billowing smoke that's swallowed the sun
You're nowhere to be seen
Do you think our desires still burn
I guess it was desires that tore us apart
There has to be passion
A passion for living, surviving
And that means detachment
Every-body has a weapon to fight you with
To beat you with when you are down
There were too many defence between us
Doubting all the time
Fearinf all the time
Doubting all the time
Fearinf all the time
That like these urban nightmares
We'd blacken each other skies
When we passed the subway we tried to ignore our fate there
Of written threats on endless walls
Unjustified crimes carried on stifled calls
Would you walk with me now through this pouring rain
It used to mingle with our tears then dry with the hopes
That we left behind
It rains even harder now

Oh my god I just finished the Black Ops 6 campaign and whaaaat this game is a masterpiece
(spoilers under the cut, as well as a big rant about my favorite stuff+ theories and parallels between characters I noticed)
You’re telling me that this entire time the mole that probably got Alex Mason, Hudson, and almost Woods killed was (or implied to be) JANE?? And the reason Adler got framed for it was because Jane had convinced herself that Adler had been the one to murder her parents (even though he hadn’t been…)
I never liked Adler much because he just seemed cocky and overconfident to me, but he also wasn’t stupid judging by the billion little cassettes he left around, and the connections he had.
I also love the mentions of Alex Mason, mainly because the Black Ops 1 & 2 campaigns were the first I ever played, so that silly schizophrenic man and his kid hold a special place in my heart.
There were also sooo many hidden details. Like the puzzles in the house, where first you have to get to the boiler room and fix that, then use the black light, find hidden messages on the WALLS, play the piano in that order, go down the secret stairs, do a keypad version of wordle, hack into a computer, then solve some riddle just for 1000 bucks?? Insane.
I loved the level of detail in this game because it really felt more authentic to me. Like did you know that Adler played football in highschool (I think as a linebacker), or that he got his face scars from jumping out of a second story window face first? All just random dialogue. Or the NPC dialogue, where it’ll range from talking about “turning in for the night” to someone’s wife having a torrid affair with her husbands knowing consent?? (yes I did actually hear this dialogue in game)
Something I’m still wondering about is if the person who was talking to Case (in his head) was the devious version of Jane, because we see the voice telling Case to kill Jane in the very end, and seeming angry at Pantheon, which makes me think it might be the version of Jane that Case knew before she went evil. Another reason why I think this is because while Case is under the effect of the mystery gas and therefore the voices, we see Adler being the monster in most cases, with the dialogue even being “I knew we couldn’t trust him,” once, which I think further shows Jane’s delusion even while not fully being evil yet.
Also, the whole schizophrenic “voices in his head” seemed a whole lot like Alex Mason, too. I’m surprised Woods didn’t bring it up, especially because he even noticed Case being out of it a few times and asking if he was still with him. In Black Ops 2 we hear Woods telling David Mason (Alex’s son) that he would “notice him get that look in his eye again, like he wasn’t really there with me” and I think that’s an interesting parallel.
But, if Case survived the whole being infected by the Cradle (even though the voice told him he wasn’t affected by it earlier on in the game?) and being underneath the sea in a crashed helicopter, I wonder if Woods and the rest of his little crew would’ve figured out about it.
If you go through the house right before one of the last missions before it becomes inaccessible, you see almost every character having their own folder in their room, with Felix having one that mentions his worries about Case’s “growing instability”. Felix mentions Case’s nightmares and how he says “Pantheon” in his sleep and whatnot, even saying he might not be stable on missions after his earlier interaction with the mystery gas that made him spaz out.
I think Case even wanted to tell them, with the first dialogue option after the hallucination mission you can have with Woods is you trying to tell him, but being stopped by the voice. In the end, I think they would’ve found out anyway, probably due to something like Felix getting into old footage from Pantheon’s experiments or Case finally being able to talk about it with Jane dead.
Something I also liked was the pacing of the game. It wasn’t all just blazing guns and glory, there were moments where you had to take things slow, had to sneak around, blend in, hide bodies, and I loved the puzzle aspect. One thing I also liked was the mission where you could roam the dessert and choose your objectives.
Don’t get me wrong, I love a good action mission, but something about watching Felix stir random vegetable stew while talking to me about the value of human life was nice too. There were also a few mission where I was super tense and it felt more like a horror game, and some where I was giggling.
Honestly, I just need Case to be alive, and then to fix the old house up and live happily ever after while Woods helps raise Alex Mason’s kid. I just need them to all work out their trauma together, for Felix and Sevati to either get together or become best friends, and for them to be a big happy family.
Sorry for the rant, I got a little bit excited.

Child in Time
Chapter 14
Warnings: none
Chapter 1: link
Previous chapter: link
The last place Barry wanted to be right now was work. There was enough horror to dwell on without-
"Harrow! West! Thawne! I need you three on the burning under the bridge in Lawrence Hills, where's Allen?" Captain Singh barked as he exited his office into the bullpen.
That.
Barry zipped down the stairs to meet the group in the doorway, pages fluttering on a nearby desk.
"Hey, heard my name," Barry said, leaning against the rail and trying to act like he wouldn't rather be anywhere else. He could be out looking for Eo, he could be helping Cisco figure out a way to find the Reverse Flash, he could be-
"Allen, you're with Harrow, that scene needs investigated yesterday."
Barry forced a smile and waved at Officer Harrow who looked like he'd swallowed a lemon. Harrow was already halfway out the precinct doors, his jaw set, posture straight-backed and inflexible like he'd ironed his bones into place.
Eddie mouthed good luck, Barr with a sympathetic wince as he fell into step beside Joe. Barry thought about protesting - he could make it there in the blink of an eye, faster than Harrow could even turn the key in the ignition - but unfortunately, Singh knew exactly two things about him: he didn't own a car and he had a historically awful relationship with punctuality.
So out to Harrow's cruiser he trudged.
The ride started off excruciatingly quiet. Harrow, apparently, wasn't the type to make small talk or turn on the radio. Barry tried anyway, desperate for something to fill the overthinking-and-panic-inducing silence before it swallowed him whole.
"So, uh...I'm Barry," he said, glancing over at Harrow whose gaze never left the road, his hands perfectly at 10 and 2. "You're Bennet, right?" Harrow nodded curtly and Barry took that as an encouraging sign. "Cool, cool...your friends call you Ben? Or Benny, maybe...?"
"Bennet. But you can refer to me as Officer Harrow."
Barry blinked, wondering how Harrow could possibly hate him already. "Right. Okay. Officer Harrow. Got it."
Harrow didn't respond and the silence returned with a vengeance. Barry tried not to fidget but his foot bounced anyway. He'd fought supervillains, why was this somehow worse?
After another block of heavy silence, Barry tried again.
"So, uh...you transferred from Midvale, right? I think I heard Singh mention that."
This time Harrow did glance at him - just a flicker of his eyes to the side - and then back to the road. "Correct."
"I've never been. Is it nice?"
"No."
The conversation died there.
By the time they pulled up to the bridge leading into Lawrence Hills, Barry felt like he'd aged a year. The cruiser rolled to a stop just beyond the barricade. Police tape fluttered in the breeze and the scorched underbelly of the bridge stood out like an oil stain against the concrete. No traffic above; the street had been closed off.
Barry exited almost before Harrow had put the car in park, grabbing his forensic kit and slipping under the yellow tape. Eddie waved him over.
"Hey, Barr. Just spoke with the witnesses. Get this: they both swear they saw a man burst into flames."
Barry furrowed his brow. "Self-immolation or spontaneous combustion? But the report said nobody was hurt."
Eddie nodded. "They said he burst into flames and then flew away."
Oh. Another meta case then. Dammit, Barry didn't want to have to split his focus between finding Eo and...whatever the hell this burning man was doing.
Barry nodded, adjusting the strap on his bag as he approached the scorched pavement. He knelt down, carefully snapping on a pair of blue latex gloves and examining the blackened asphalt. The damage wasn't widespread - just a contained area about four feet across, charred deeply and oddly uniform.
"There's no sign of an accelerant," Barry muttered to himself, his fingers brushing through soot that felt finer than it should.
Harrow stood a few feet away, arms folded, eyes sharp and unblinking. He cleared his throat pointedly. "You've determined that just by touching the pavement?"
Barry rolled his eyes before looking up at the rigid officer. "Usually when you have gasoline or kerosene, there are distinct splash patterns and residues. None of that's here. This was more contained."
Barry turned back to the ash, pulling out his sample collection kit and placing a small scoop into a glass jar before sealing it and replacing it in his bag. He should probably take it to S.T.A.R. Labs since they were dealing with a meta...but he could process the sample fine in his own lab, he was sure, and he didn't want to risk distracting everyone else. Eo was the priority.

Why is Anne Clark ignoring David Harrow, composer of "Our Darkness" etc.
Why is Anne Clark ignoring David Harrow who wrote her other hit piece “Sleeper in Metropolis”?
What has he done to her?
Anne calls Charlie Morgan her soulmate, Charlie sadly has died early. And isn't it so easy to speak about people once they have died? And isn't it easy to just post about dogs who don't question you?
Tumblr media
Why doesn't Anne invite David Harrow on stage like I now suggested? Because her pretentious manager and guitarist Jeff Aug, who fucked up her book is too full of himself to do his job properly. And Jeff doesn't want any more competition. Am I right or am I right, Jeff Fraud?
But all that is on Anne herself, who drops people like “hot potatoes”, as we say in Germany, when she doesn't need them anymore.
Anne called the police on me ONLY AFTER I copied in her fans that her book “Notes Taken Traces Left” is full of mistakes.
Please familiarize yourself with my story before you judge.
Start here: When you are Anne Clark …
And if there are mistakes in my texts on this blog here, please be aware that I write this solely on my own, have no money, have lost everything, am from Germany and learnt English as an adult. Anne with her 40 years in Germany with German musicians/friends still doesn't speak German, mind you.
And then there was this rich business woman from Hamburg, who's so toxic that my computer screen shuts down with diarrhoea.
Anne fell for her. Anne dropped her girlfriend of 8 years shortly after her GF came out of a massive back surgery. She dumped her publicly on Facebook for this wannabe “happy” person, who threatened me with her lawyer years ago when I was traumatised with emailing.
In these last days (early-mid September 2024) I called that woman from Hamburg every name under the sun to get her to keep her fake promise of talking to her lawyer. She's a name-dropper and insecure narcissist.
She fucked up Anne's website back in 2015, studied in Chicago, has all the money in the world to get a proper editor and proof reader, and can't even spell “happier” right.
THAT'S how “professional” she is. It's those fake "happy" people you need to be weary of. And that's the kind of people Anne falls for, while dumping people who are loyal to her as an artist and as a person. Coming out of a back surgery, getting dumped for a dumb business woman who can't spell, but drops names ... nah, thank you.
These are the people Anne surrounds herself with because they have money. And her band are her brothers she can rely on. And that's good. But why does Anne ignore David Harrow?
Now, I write publicly about Anne's fuck-ups and poor choice of collaborations, while David Harrow sits in Los Angeles, waiting to have his work recognized.
I commented to David and he at least recognises the shit I write about.
Tumblr media
What has David done to you, Anne?
I write this publicly because you ghosted me for years and then called the police once I copied some of your fans in, while before you didn't seem to have an issue with me emailing. For new readers, please see above links about the police issue.
I suggested to you now and to David Harrow to have him on stage and even collaborate with him.
God knows how little he got paid.
And for all those self-righteous folk, especially the Germans, who say I'm insane, yes I am! I am diagnosed with a mental health condition and prolonged PTSD after all the shit that came down on me, while I just lived my life in normality. Call me whatever you want to call me, as long as you spare me of your hypocrisy, dishonesty, insincerity, unfaithfulness and self-righteousness.

so the other day I read David Harrower's play Presence, which is set during the Beatles' first Hamburg trip and revolves around the impact of WW2 on the characters and the city (and the Beatles trying to get laid). John and Stu never appear - while they referred to, on stage it's just Paul, George and Pete, along with two female characters (a young waitress at a bar they visit and the older Marian who manages the Indra).
anyway, Paul in this play is so awful! because there's no John, all the Nazi stuff comes from him, and he's a complete bitch to Pete and especially to George:
Mid-morning. Pete and Paul on their beds. George stands by the wall with a postcard he's trying to write. George: What'm I supposed to write on this stupid thing? Eh? Paul: Who's it to? George: Me mum and dad. What'd you say? Paul: Don't know. How well d'you know them? George: C'mon, I need help here. Has to be short. And comforting. Pete: What's on the front? George: (holds it up. Reads from back) 'The historic port of Hamburg sits on the banks of the majestic River Elbe. The whole area pictured was destroyed in the Great Fire of 1842. Maybe that's why our women are so red-hot...' Paul: Enough there already, isn't there? That's an evening's reading for your lot.
George: Doesn't say a lot, does he? Pete. Bloke of few words. Still getting used to us, suppose? Doesn't really need to say a lot though, does he? Paul: What d'you mean? George: He's a good-looking bastard, isn't he? Paul: Says who? George: You've seen the way girls look at him. Paul: How come he's not lying in bed with a girl then, like them two through there? George: 'Cause he can pick and choose, can't he? He can pick and choose whereas us, we'll go with anything. Them two, they'll go with anything. Only he hasn't picked and chosen yet. Paul: Picked and chosen... What're you talking about? And I don't go with anything. George: You go with anything. Paul: I pick and choose, thank you very much. George: Well, you never have much to choose from. Paul: Piss off. How can a bloke say another bloke's good-looking? George: I just did. Paul: For some fuckin' reason, I'm interested in this. One bloke thinks another bloke's good-looking. Using what yardstick? George: No yardstick. Paul: There must be a yardstick. George: Yardstick? Where's the fuckin' yardstick come from? Paul: The yardstick of if he's so good-looking you must want to fuck him from behind up the arse. The yardstick you must want to use to fuck him from behind up the arse. George: Fuck off, you. Paul: Good-looking, me arse. George: I just said it. Didn't mean anything. Paul: Well, mean something. When you say something, mean something. Helps the rest of us, y'know? Pause. George: Hello, Mum. Hello, Dad. Paul's a cunt and I mean that most sincerely.
