I first listened to you performing this song at DTU but the faulty sound system ruined most of the good parts.

This is one of my fav tracks of hers since I heard the Cheltenham Jazz version she did. You've got such a great voice! I wish the vocal mic had boom protection on it and was better in general. This would have sounded just as good better without the reverb on your voice. Still so gooood!

that's the sad part you expect us to tease you and you are teasing ...........

I have listened to this song a million times! Even though the original song is raw and gorgeous in of itself but still Abhilasha manages to be unique and intriguing!

Ellie Goulding man. Can never emulate! So did my own take on it..

WMBB BIO

White Moth Black Butterfly (WMBB) is the 'experimental' creation of UK singer / songwriter Daniel Tompkins (TesseracT / Skyharbor) and Keshav Dhar (Skyharbor). With influences stemming from the likes of Massive Attack, Enigma, and Sigur Ros this cross continent studio based project emanates huge cinematic soundscapes, juxtaposed with classical, acoustic and electronically infused songs, nested with powerful vocal performances.

WMBB’s debut album ‘One Thousand Wings’ released in November 2013 (recorded, mixed and produced by both Tompkins and Dhar) has seen critical acclaim being hailed as “An absolutely essential work’ by Classic Rock Presents Prog Magazine and “Wildly experimental and curiously accessible” by Metal Hammer. In 2014 WMBB released a new video / single 'Rising Sun' which saw them nominated for a PROG award in the 'Limelight' category. Now the project is working towards their second album.

PRESS:

"An exceptional album from Dan Tompkins. An absolutely essential work. Experimental, accessible and quite brilliant. This ranks high amongst this year's progressive releases." - Classic Rock Presents Prog Magazine. 

"Wildly experimental and curiously accessible" 8/10 - Metal Hammer 

"The incredible sincere delicacy of Tompkins's vocals is a perfect compliment for the programmed beats, plaintive strings and pulsing electronics throughout this album." - Windswept Edge 

"Above all, the impression that “One Thousand Wings” gives is one of talented musicianship and a desire for sonic exploration, resulting in quite a hypnotic and memorable experience." - This is Not A Scene 

"Sublime and emotive; ‘One Thousand Wings’ is fantastic." - A Metal State of Mind

Unlike the technical one-upmanship and solid low-end groove that shroud Tompkins' metal outings, White Moth Black Butterfly strips down the man's songwriting to its most visceral form yet. The leftfield ambient project also features some of the most eminent musicians to have grazed his vocal prowess, and for all their grandiose instrumentation and spectral soundscaping on record, their aural synapse in the live domain is definitely something to look forward to - Vh1

A cover of 'Tease Me' by Lianne La Havas. She is absolute perfection and covering her is a futile task. It is one of my favourite songs though, so here it is. Thank you Siddhant Agarwal for the tasty guitarwork!

The Internet - Just Sayin (cover by Keshav Dhar and Abhilasha Sinha)

Well nighttime passes, but the dark remains
and I was feelin’ like a little child, but I am loathe to place blame
on that lioness-esque woman, who will go here unnamed
she was looking in me for a lion, when she found it so tame

On that erstwhile May morning, I took the 6 downtown to Spring
and I was writing something elegiac, that I never learned to sing
but I think that it was this song, just four years premature
and I remember crossing out the line - “all is fair in love and war”

Well if all is fair in love and war
then I don’t know what we’re fighting for

Cuz my baby she’s a real peach
even when the night come crashin’ down
real peach
and the nighttime rolls away, alright
and we’re comin’ back to the demon-killing work of love
(my god)

Well nighttime passes and the dark retreats
I hand it over to my upper angel who visits me in sleep
we’re in the field beyond the right and wrong and the fallacy of form
you can call it what you wanna call it, I just say “all is fair in love and war”

Well if all is fair in love and war
then I don’t know what we are fighting for
So if we don’t care to fight no more
let’s go upstairs and let’s shut the door

Cuz my baby she’s a real peach
even when the night come crashin’ down
real peach
and the nighttime rolls away, alright
and we’re comin’ back to the demon-killing work of love
(my god) illuminate

The Rains

Real Peach

I need to know.
I need to know about everything.
I need to know.
I need to know, I know everything.

Indian indie is filled with men who are abusers, assaulters and gaslighting champions.
They pretend to be allies. Pretend.
