Glenn Tilbrook
Glenn Martin Tilbrook (born 31 August 1957) is the lead singer and guitarist of the English band Squeeze, a band formed in the mid-1970s who broke through in the new wave era at the decade's end. He generally wrote the melody for Squeeze's songs, while his writing partner, Chris Difford, wrote the lyrics. In addition to his songwriting skills, Tilbrook is respected both as a singer and an accomplished guitarist. He was born in Woolwich, London.
Difford and Tilbrook
During Squeeze's first hiatus, from approximately 1983 to 1985, Tilbrook wrote, recorded, and toured with Chris Difford, his songwriting partner from Squeeze. Their album, Difford & Tilbrook was originally released in 1984, and remastered and reissued in 2006.
Solo career
Following Squeeze's second breakup in 1999, Tilbrook pursued a solo career, often touring around the UK and US in an RV, playing small venues. He released two solo albums, The Incomplete Glenn Tilbrook and Transatlantic Ping Pong. Tilbrook co-wrote some of the songs for his solo recordings with artists such as Ron Sexsmith, Chris Braide and Aimee Mann.

Tilbrook is a village and civil parish in Cambridgeshire, England. Tilbrook lies approximately 10 miles (16 km) west of Huntingdon, near Covington. Tilbrook is situated within Huntingdonshire which is a non-metropolitan district of Cambridgeshire as well as being a historic county of England.
Government
As a civil parish, Tilbrook has a parish council. The parish council is elected by the residents of the parish who have registered on the electoral roll; the parish council is the lowest tier of government in England. A parish council is responsible for providing and maintaining a variety of local services including allotments and a cemetery; grass cutting and tree planting within public open spaces such as a village green or playing fields. The parish council reviews all planning applications that might affect the parish and makes recommendations to Huntingdonshire District Council, which is the local planning authority for the parish. The parish council also represents the views of the parish on issues such as local transport, policing and the environment. The parish council raises its own tax to pay for these services, known as the parish precept, which is collected as part of the Council Tax.
Tilbrook (name)
The surname Tilbrook is derived from an English local source. Local surnames were derived from the place where a person once lived, or a prominent local geographical feature, perhaps a hill identified one person from another who lived near a bridge, river, lake, etc.
Here, the name denotes 'of Tilbrook', a parish in county Bedford. This name was given to someone who lived at this place. This placename itself is derived from the Old English language byname 'Tile' (from 'til', 'capable'), and 'broc', meaning 'brook' (as in a meandering stream). In the 11th century it was called 'TileBroc'.
Early records of the surname Tilbrook include an entry of this name recorded within the Hundred Rolls, which until the 19th century was a unit of English Government detailing citizens of a given area. This system of local legal jurisdiction was introduced by King Edmund the Martyr I (939-946AD).
William de Tilbroc of county Lincolnshire, was documented in this book in 1273AD. This surname was also entered in the Domesday Book four times during 1086/87. This book was created as an in-depth survey of almost all England, detailing land holdings tenure and stock of individuals. The original document is still preserved among English public records.

The Incomplete Glenn Tilbrook
by: Glenn TilbrookConsidering the experience I'm pushing out the boat
Calling every favour in to help keep it afloat
I don't know if it will sink or sail majestically
Whether you will buy a ticket or stow away for free
I know it's a new world
With exciting possibilities
Hooked up and downloaded
And it's loud and clear on MP3
Considering the experience remembering when I was ten
The Monkees weren't a real band but I still loved them
Now I flick on the remote and it's happening again
I suppose it's not such a big leap from them to S Club Seven
I know it's a changed world
And that these things are not meant for me
Now fame's the intention
You just have to really wanna be
I'm back again ready or not?
I know I've slung some hooks around these parts before
Should I dance around a lot?
If I did that you might show me the door
I know it's an odd world
Make it even now for me
Although I'm still barking
I don't think that's it up the wrong tree
Considering the experience there's not much to regret
Though I've picked up a few knocks the games not over yet
My heart is intact and here it is for you to see
And I won't give up at least not yet so don't give up on me
I know it's a tough world
I've just found another door
I'm running a small shop
In the age of the global superstore
I live in the real world
What d'ya think I'm laughing for?
I'm ready and waiting
You can take me now I'm yours
