Name: SLIM PICKINGS by ALLEN & DOUGLAS in ENTIRE INBOX: Batch 212
Duration: 4 min 47 s
Description: Written by Craig Allen and Steven Douglas April 2015

Any artist is welcome to send us ONE track via freshonthenet.co.uk anytime between Monday lunchtime and Thursday morning - and all our moderators, including Tom Robinson, will listen to every track*. This is our full inbox from the week beginning Mon 26th September: from mid-day on Friday you'll be able to hear our shortlist and pick your favourites on this week's Listening Post which will appear at freshonthenet.co.uk/batch212

*Note: we don't listen again to tunes we've already heard, and automatically block artists who send more than one track a week (our moderators can manage to work their way through 150+ tunes overnight, but 300+ would be impossible!)

ENTIRE INBOX: Batch 212

Halah (Mazzy Star cover)

Verse 1 : I’ve been hanging out of sight , just hoping to feel a change , a change of fortune , a change to my scene . a chance to turn the page , cause what started out as good has descended so slowly …but wait ..cause maybe I forced it maybe I lost it maybe I’m just to late 


Verse 2 : Out of sight and mind , is just what it used to be , like a sucker for torture , the Achilles to my heal , it’s getting much harder to see , but I won’t lose my hold , I’ve been clutching this  edge so long… yeah I’m gonna make it , I got to just take it , I got to just carry on … 

Verse 3 : I’ve been hanging out of sight , just hoping to feel that change , a change to my fortunes , a change to my scene . a chance to turn that page , cause what started out as good has descended so slowly …but wait ..cause maybe I forced it maybe I lost it maybe I’m just to late … 

Chorus: We always reach for the stars ,my mind is fading , it’s been this way from the start , and still I’m waiting , why do I reach for the stars , in vain I’m sailing when will I wake up and find my way through the night
