Once you listen to this track, you will be for a while in another place. Somewhere where all the things seem possible, love and other stuff. Silences is the music project of Conchúr White. Since being joined by his cousin Breandán White, and close friends Christopher Harbinson, Michael Keyes and Jonathan Downing. Currlently located at Armagh. They were formed only in 2013. Their sound is kinda fresh and nostalgic. They can easily remind you of Coldplay's old times and Sigur Ros melodies. As the band claims: "The Sea pays homage to desire over fear. It is an amalgamation of everything we have learnt and signifies an advancement in both writing and production". The official launch of their new single "The Sea" will be out on 5th May, and they we will be able to add the music video to this post. Since then, you can only listen to it and watch another music video of them "Sister Snow". Enjoy!
Silences-The Sea The waves seem quaint to the ones we tamed, to the ones we tamed But that tone it begs for me to go so I'll go. At the port you'll learn that the rags I wore were only worn To bring me here, it's you I want to wear. If only for my confidence in all the things that don't make sense I'll brave it all, I'll swim right through, the sea then you. And the marks we fear, this ship saw piers, this ship saw piers But you know you are its lighthouse, don't you dear? If only for my confidence in all the things that don't make sense I'll brave it all, I'll swim right through, the sea then you. Open water won't decide all the colour I deny. If only for my confidence in all the things that don't make sense I'll brave it all, I'll swim right through, the sea then you.
Whoever has been watching TV lately, he might have seen this commercial by AXE. A very weird one, if you ask me. The soundtrack of this ad, though, is pretty haunting. It could remind you of Chris Martin from Coldplay or maybe James Vincent McMorrow, but the talented man who owns this voice is Ali Lacey and his stage name is Novo Amor. He is coming from Cardiff and his music influences are mutual with ours. He owns a great website, you can visit it here: http://www.novoamor.co.uk/. You can judge by the lyrics, what this song is about and let us know what you think in the comments below.
Novo Amor-Welcome to the Jungle Welcome to the jungle
We've got fun and games We've got everything you want,
honey I know the names We are the ones that can find
whatever you might need If you got the money honey
I'll be your disease
In the jungle,
uuhh welcome to the jungle I Watch it bring you to your knees,
I want to watch you bleed
Welcome to the jungle
we take it day by day If you want it you're gonna bleed
but it's the price you've got to pay Oh so pretty girl,
that's very hard to please You can have everything you want,
You better not take it from me
In the jungle
uuhh welcome to the jungle I watch it bring you to your knees
We all met her, while she was collaborating with Bombay Bicycle Club. After that, Lucy Rose went solo and followed her own music carreer. In July we expect her brand new album "Work It Out", but the first single is already out. "Our Eyes" is the title of the track and Rose claims that it is a song about when someone has done something that has annoyed or upset you, but as soon as your eyes meet you can’t help but smile and forget about it all and make up. In my opinion, Lucy Rose, has everything a girl needs to listen. She has that fragile voice but at the same time you listen to some of the hardest words in a form of lyrics out of her mouth. Check it out here on Lyrics On My Wall.
Lucy Rose-Our Eyes I'm alive I feel it now I never knew I'll find it on you Out of line we got ourselves In a look, wait we are not fine Wait, you are not mine! We find our eyes stuck looking at Our eyes are making out We're not made for this
Fighting love Our eyes stuck looking at Our eyes are making out We're too close to be out of touch! Out of touch, ooh oh Out of touch Lay away, silent corner Side by side, we follow our minds Walk it on, then we trip On the line, wait we are not fine Wait, you are not mine! We find Our eyes stuck looking at Our eyes are making out We're not made for this Fighting love Our eyes stuck looking at Our eyes are making out We're too close to be out of touch! Our eyes stuck looking at Our eyes are making out We're not made for this Fighting love Our eyes stuck looking at Our eyes are making out We're too close to be out of touch! I can't stay low I'm always glad when we wake up I'm just as there as you So, when we wake up I can't stay low I'm always glad when we wake up I'm just as there as you So, when we wake up Our eyes stuck looking at Our eyes are making out We're not made for this
Fighting love Our eyes stuck looking at Our eyes are making out We're too close to be out of touch! Our eyes stuck looking at Our eyes are making out We're not made for this
Fighting love Our eyes stuck looking at Our eyes are making out We're too close to be out of touch! Oh oh, out of touch Oh oh, out of touch Out of touch
After I visited Liverpool, I am searching more and more about the music that is born there. Many artists and many bands, that are so talented are formed every day! I feel like the music tank of this area will never get empty! The band that is featured today on LOMW was formed in Liverpool and they asked all our questions here!
Lay back, grab a coffee and read the interview while you listen to their new song: Keep Me Alive!
LOMW: Welcome on Lyrics On My Wall! Thank you for the fast response about this interview. Could you please introduce yourselves to our audience and then tell us from where exactly are you answering this Q&A?
AWA: Hi there, we're All We Are, coming at ya from our tour van somewhere in Germany, on our way to Hamburg.
LOMW: You have all studied in LIPA. I guess this is your meeting point. What is the story of your band’s formation?
AWA: We meet at first day in Uni and we really clicked, been best friends ever since! We started the band when we left university though. We wanted to stay in Liverpool and get involved in the scene here. We work very well musically, so here we are!
LOMW: Each one of you comes from different places. Brazil, Norway, Ireland. Does that add different cultural elements to your music?
AWA: Not really, we all grew up listening to fairly similar things but of course our heritage will always be there.
LOMW: Liverpool seems like one of the best music communities. Lately, we’ve seen historical music scenes to shut down after police raids, like the one at the Lomax. After that we witnessed a massive movement from musicians and people who loved the place in order to save the venue. What’s your opinion on that?
AWA: Lately we've seen a lot of venues close down around Liverpool that are really important to us. They close for various reasons and each one is a detraction from Liverpool's art culture. The mobilisation of the people to protest at this is part of Liverpool's heritage and in its blood.
LOMW: Recently, a big music platform in Greece named you “Big in 2015”, how does it feel to become famous in different places on earth?
AWA:We're extremely happy that people enjoy what we're up to. We love writing tunes and playing live and that people now start to connect with it is huge for us. We want people to feel that they are part of it and we would LOVE to play in Greece
LOMW: We are living in the years of technology, what’s your relationship with it? Do you use the social media and in what way?
AWA: It's a good way to communicate with your fans. We're try to answer everyone that contacts us and wonder about stuff. It's nice to be nice.
LOMW: How it feels to sell music online and on the other hand how it feels when your music is downloaded illegally? What future do you predict of CD or Vinyl format? Will ever digital music replace them completely?
AWA: Vinyls are special, they will never disappear, they are too pretty and sound great. People have predicted the death of CD's for ages now but it's still around... Illegal downloads, guess it's better to be heard than not and the more people that hear you will come to your gigs.
LOMW: What is your biggest dream in music as a group? Maybe a collaboration or being on tour with someone?
AWA: Think every musician would love to headline Glastonbury. Think that's as good as it gets! But in saying that our biggest dream is to play The Royal Albert Hall with the London Philharmonic Orchestra. That would be epic!
LOMW: What are your plans for the future? What should your fans expect from you?
AWA: As long as you guys keep listening we're going to keep writing tunes, keep releasing albums and play loads of gigs!
LOMW: Thank you for answering all these questions for Lyrics On My Wall. We wish you a year full of success and creativity! Stay cool and love music!
AWA: No problems! Big love xx
All We Are-Keep Me Alive
I'm giving you more that I can take Need you baby, I need you baby Giving you more that I can face Do you feel it, baby? Do you feel it, baby?
I need you baby, to keep me alive To keep me alive I need you baby, to keep me alive To keep me alive
Giving your colours to amaze Need to face it, need to face it Giving you pictures to portrait Need to place it, need to place it I hear nothing at all but your breathing I hear nothing at all, nothing at all Giving you more than I can fake Do you feel it, baby? Do you feel it, baby?
I need you baby, to keep me alive To keep me alive I need you baby, to keep me alive To keep me alive
I hear nothing at all but your breathing I need you baby, to keep me alive To keep me alive I hear nothing at all, nothing at all I hear nothing at all but your breathing I need you baby, to keep me alive To keep me alive I hear nothing at all, nothing at all
I need you baby, to keep me alive To keep me alive I need you baby, to keep me alive To keep me alive
I hear nothing at all but your breathing I need you baby, to keep me alive To keep me alive I hear nothing at all, nothing at all
They are the past and future in indie-electronic, as I like to say it. Years & Years formed back in 2010. From Australia to UK and from web to the shower, they found each other and since then, they create some of the best tunes in electronic genre, in my opinion anyway! They were named Big in 2015 from many sites and you will find the reasons once you listen to them. Years & Years were also nominated for the Critics Choice Award for the Brit Awards 2015. Their new EP Y & Y released in February 2015 and today we post here the song "King". The very interesting music video with choreography that shows a very crazy or maybe schizophrenic King, who is under someone else's control! ;) Check it out, here, on Lyrics On My Wall.
Years & Years-King I caught you watching me under the light Can I be your line? They say it's easy to leave you behind I don't wanna try
Come and take that test Hold courage to your chest Don't wanna wait for you Don't wanna have to lose All that I compromised to feel another high I've got to keep it down tonight
And oh, oh, oh I was a king under your control And oh, oh, oh I wanna feel like you've let me go So let me go
Don't you remember how I used to like Being on the line? I dreamed you dreamed of me calling out my name Is it worth the price?
Come and take that test Hold courage to your chest Don't wanna wait for you Don't wanna have to lose All that I compromised to feel another high I've got to keep it down tonight
And oh, oh, oh I was a king under your control And oh, oh, oh I wanna feel like you've let me go So let me go
I had to break myself to carry on No love and no admission Take this from me tonight Oh, let's fight (x4)
And oh, oh, oh I was a king under your control And oh, oh, oh I wanna feel like you've let me go So let me go
We haven't listened something new from Florence and The Machine since their last album "Ceremonials". This album was all about death and water but this new album is all about learning how to live and how to love. In June, we expect their third album "How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful". The lead single came out with a surprising music video for the track "What Kind Of Man". In this music video, which was directed by Vincent Haycock, you will see Florence dancing, screaming, acting crazy, dreaming and fighting her own demons. Even seeing her naked adds quality in this atmospheric music video. The sound is epic and at moments you will feel intense electricity! Check it out on Lyrics On My Wall.
Florence + The Machine - What Kind Of Man I was on a heavy tip Tryna cross a canyon with a broken limb You were on the other side Like always, wondering what to do with life I already had a sip So I'd reasoned I was drunk enough to deal with it You were on the other side Like always, you could never make your mind
And with one kiss You inspired a fire of devotion That lasted 20 years What kind of man loves like this
To let me dangle at a cruel angle Oh my feet don't touch the floor Sometimes you're half in and then you're half out But never close the door
What kind of man loves like this What kind of man What kind of man loves like this What kind of man
You're a holy fool all colored blue Red feet upon the floor You do such damage, how do you manage? Tryna crawl in back for more
And with one kiss You inspired a fire of devotion That lasted 20 years What kind of man loves like this
What kind of man loves like this What kind of man What kind of man loves like this What kind of man
But I can't beat you Cause I'm still with you Oh mercy I implore How do you do it I think I'm through it Then I'm back against the wall
What kind of man loves like this What kind of man What kind of man loves like this What kind of man
It’s extremely surprising when you ask a band for a Q&A and the answer comes back right away. This is what happened today with Jamie from Fourth and Folsom.
LOMW: Welcome on Lyrics On My Wall! Thank you for the fast response about this interview. Could please tell us who you are and from where exactly are you answering this Q&A?
F&F: Hi, I’m Jamie from Fourth and Folsom, I’m one of two multi-instumentalists in the band, and currently answering this from our studio outside of London at the moment.
LOMW: While I was trying to find more about you, I’ve noticed that there are not many things online, but there are many people who find your music unique. How have you done this?
F&F: Well, we’ve always been a bit apprehensive about putting music out there, and as a result only ended up with a couple of singles over the past year that have stuck. We’ve gigged London extensively to get our music out there by word of mouth really.
LOMW: On Facebook, you state that you are unsigned. How easy it is to work without a label? What are the pros and cons?
F&F: Yes we’re unsigned at the moment in terms of a record label. Over the past year we’ve been working a lot harder by ourselves, as in 2013 we were signed to an independent label in south east London that we dropped early last year. It is a lot harder to work without a label but it definitely is beneficial to small bands, as it stops you from taking the pressure off! In December we signed to Playground PR who are handling all of our releases this year, including our album release, so now we have a little bit of help which is nice.
LOMW: What inspires you to write your music and lyrics? Do you have the instinct when you write something that is going to be big?
F&F: We’re inspired to write about all matter of things, as there’s three of us in the band who are songwriters. So the lyrical content is really varied as we all have different inspirations and styles. We enjoy writing the kind of music that we like to go and see live, so it’s easy to see our influences in our songs and live set at times. We never really know which of our songs are going to be popular until we play them live though.
LOMW: If someone asked you, what’s the best act in music scene right now, what would you suggest and why?
F&F: Thats a really hard question. Obviously because there are so many good acts out there at the moment. Our favourite live band we’ve ever seen all together, and definitely my personal favourite band, is Local Natives. They have an absolutely ridiculous live set that is near identical to their recordings, which is so impressive considering the playing on them! We take a lot of influence from them as a band and would love to see them play live again, they’re hardly ever in London though. Or The Districts. We’ve got mutual friends with them and they’re just incredible for their age, they’re signed to Fat Possum records and they’re all 19 or 20 I think.
LOMW: The UK is a music leader across the globe, what’s that –in your opinion- that makes this place different in such way?
F&F: I think the UK is one of the leaders because we have so many cities that are so embedded in musical culture. We have a lot of cities have churned out bands that have dominated the Globe. Liverpool gave The Beatles, Manchester gave the Stone Roses, London gave Led Zeppelin. List goes on really! We love America though, we’ve spent time recording in Philadelphia with two amazing producers Gino Wong and Tim Motzer, and the music scenes in the US are incredible as well. Will definitely be making a trip over as soon as we can.
LOMW: What should your fans expect from Fourth and Folsom in the future?
F&F: Fans should expect our next release, which is our first single of the year ‘Golden Dunes’ on March 30th. But in the future, they should expect a lot of live shows, sessions and the like running up to our debut album release later this year!
LOMW: Thank you so much for being here and support with your own way our effort on Lyrics On My Wall, which is always to bring the good music to more ears. Keep on creating the best you can and LOMW will always be here to support you!
Fourth And Folsom-I Won't Fall
I don’t need to feel like I’m walking alone alone and you’d say I need something to hold me back back (x2)
I won’t fall you can count on me now don’t know why I was feeling so low down I need love Face’s red Staring right through your window
There are no words to scrap from this letter my love and you fall short when I seem to need you the most Most (x2)
I won’t fall you can count on me now don’t know why I was feeling so low down I need love Face’s red Staring right through your window
I won’t fall you can count on me now don’t know why I was feeling so low down I need love Face’s red Staring right through your window
