Happy birthday, Renny x

Thank you, Irene Zhong, for the beautiful harmonies and strings. 

Lyrics: 

Candle on a backlit stage,
lit up while I play
and you watch me sing sing sing.
No, not the curtain yet,
I have more to say.
So stay.

But you stand at my second verse,
say, "I know it hurts,
but I've seen this all before.
I've lived life one thousand times,
I've done this and 
now I must go."

It is what it is,
I end up letting you.
It is what it is.
Never forgetting to

play til my song is done,
there for everyone,
while you walk to the back of the room.
Empty where you stood,
where you stood,
but the show must go on.

I feel without you,
sing without you.
Be in a world that spins endlessly forward.
I play to the chorus
one more time,
sing meaningless, feelingless lines.

It is what it is
and I hate it for being so, 
but it is, it is, it is, it is.
It is what it is
and I hate it,
but not you, never ever.

It is what it is

Thank you, Amelia Adler, for writing and singing this with me. 

Lyrics: 
I  thought you were a ray through clouds
I thought that sunshine sought me out
I thought we were a word in song
I thought but I knew not

I thought we were a prayer to god
I thought that god was
praying to be close to us
I thought but I knew not 

I thought that I would trust myself
And trust my gut and freeze 
And please, you'd make it easy
Please, you'd be so easy

I thought I’d move you up and shake you down 
I thought you’d turn around 
And I would make you easy,
I’d just make you easy 

I'd take it back now if I could
I'd take the things I said to you
You don't surprise me 
You don’t surprise me 

I'd take it back now if I could
I'd take the things I said to you
You don't surprise me 
You don’t surprise me 

Thought we’d sit there on your couch 
And shake it out, we’d shake it out 
I thought we’d be a happy song 
I thought but I knew not 

I thought that god was real when I was young 
That god was watching us
But I got old, don’t pray no more and things they are not easy 

I'd take it back now if I could
I'd take the things I said to you
You don't surprise me 
You don’t surprise me 

I'd take it back now if I could
I'd take the things I said to you
You don't surprise me 
You don’t surprise me 

Moving through the motions
Changing all the time
Following the tide 
Away from you 

Moving through the motions
Changing all the time
Going to keep my mind 
Away from you

I'd take it back now if I could
I'd take the things I said to you
You don't surprise me 
You don’t surprise me 
I'd take it back now if I could
I'd take the things I said to you
You don't surprise me 
You don’t surprise me 

I'd take it back now if I could
I'd take the things I said to you
You don't surprise me 
You don’t surprise me

TRACK STACK, Week 2 -  One more chance

'Unlovable' is the result of Sophie being handed a mic by Amelia Adler and being told to just make up lyrics on the spot that fit with the chords Reggie was playing. It is the first song she has ever written, and she credits Port na Blagh beach with making her wonder what it would be like if you we're stuck out on a pirate ship with a severe case of depression. Maybe that exact scenario would sound like 'Unlovable', maybe not. Either way - it's what we made. Enjoy fuckers.

Unlovable

Unlovable (Demo) feat. Sophie Ní Choimín, Ilona Adams

Written by the highly talented Amelia Adler having taken inspiration from a line from Reggie's song called "The Caveman" . After a week of creating music in Port na Blagh , "Sheephaven Studios", the trio decided to focus their efforts on one track in particular after Amelia blew the two away with the epic hook of the song.

Cold Front (Demo) feat. Amelia Adler, Sophie Ní Choimín

Written whilst in quarantine in Port na Blagh looking out to the sea after adventures abroad. The lyrics reflect the importance of appreciating the little things in life, stopping every now and then to take it all in.
Thanks to Sophie Ní Choimín for being a creative inspiration in the journey of this track.

Big Blue (Demo) feat. Sophie Ní Choimín

I'm 26, Australian, and a pianist/singer-songwriter. I'm just learning to call myself a musician. Although I am home now, I'm still in love with Ireland and all I want to do forever is sing.
