Suffer and Swim ft Allysha Joy

Single out now everywhere: smarturl.it/rwjntbt

London multi-talent Royce Wood Junior continues the rollout for 'No Two Blue Ticks', his first LP in over 5 years, with a new two-sided single. 

Long known for being early on producing rising British R&B talents like NAO, Jamie Woon, Kwabs, & JNR Williams (all of which appear on the new album) – here RWJ continues that proven track record by introducing 2 new talents: the goosebump-inducing blue-eyed soul shriek of Burhou frontman Ross Hutchison (also known as Shirazpapi) & the airy, angelic falsetto of Lucey Way.

Personnel: 
Lucey Way - vocals
RWJ - backing vocals, guitar, keys, synth, programming
Jamie Woon - backing vocals
Ross Hutchison - backing vocals
Dave Okumu - bass
Gareth Lochrane - flute
Jake Meadows - harp
Moose Curtis - percussion

Produced, Mixed & Engineered by Royce Wood Junior

Lyrics:

Won't let a thing rely on fact,
And now you're to blame for lies and attacks, yeah
And all that you mean
Only two ways – to crumble or crack
And nowt left to say when love just don't matter
On what will we cling?

Yeah yeah yeah…

I'm with you now
In the rocket's red glare
I'm with you now
For the twilight's last gleaming
I'm with you now
For this

And oh, the old days
Where dawn once cracked
And now this new phase,
Where life just don't matter, yeah
And how will we sing?

Yeah yeah yeah…

I'm with you now
In the rocket's red glare
I'm with you now
For the twilight's last gleaming
I'm with you now
For this

I'm with you now
In the rocket's red glare
I'm with you now
For the twilight's last gleaming
I'm with you now
For this

Following his return to solo work with last year's triumphantly dynamic 'No Two Blue Ticks' album – Royce Wood Junior now circles back with a new offering from those same album sessions. 

Not only was "Spit Up" originally intended for 'No Two Blue Ticks', but in fact the album title was even pulled from a line in the song's lyrics. Unfortunately, it wasn't finished in time to make the final tracklisting – but, thankfully, now it is. 

Enjoy.

Lyrics:

Oh, darling – what’s up?
You could place a thistle 
on the ground
in the place of me

Oh, darling – what’s up?
You could pour my dust, 
just tip me up
and shake me free

Don’t mists just disappear?
You know all of this just disappears

Ooh, darling – what’s up?
You could wear that 
black rose fascinator 
for a day only

Ohh, darling – don’t you wait for me
Don’t you wait, don't you wait
I’m gone, turn off your phone,
no two blue ticks from me

I’m all lit up
I’m all spit up
I’m all shit out already
I’m all bit up
I’m all chewed up
It’s time for me already

Oh, darling – what’s up?
You just wait for dust 
to not be dust,
if you wait for me

Oh, darling – what’s up?
You should feel a kiss
full up with love,
don’t wait for me

Don’t mists just disappear?
You know all of this’ll just disappear 

I’m all lit up
I’m all spit up
I’m all shit out already
I’m all bit up
I’m all chewed up
It’s time for me already

I’m all lit up
I’m all spit up
I’m all shit out already
I’m all bit up
I’m all chewed up
It’s time for me already
