This track is an insight into the life of someone who feels trapped in small talk. The lyrics speak of how we are only here for a short while and during your time on earth you should 'be someone you're proud of.' At 21, I am battling with my own mind to make decisions that could potentially change my life..

Lyrics
Who’s dead, how’s the weather?
How’s your mother, is she doing better
Oh, not another, January
I’m 21 and I’m so bored already

I’ll rain check, well it’s always raining
My head’s a mess, and I’m always complaining
I hate, to bring you down love
I’ll raise the ground up, be someone your proud of

What you gonna do with the little time you have
Damn these conversations we’ve already had
Maybe I should stay but I really need to go now
I’m with the wrong crowd
It’s time to bow out

My dear, if you’re coming with me
Pack your bags and I’ll meet you in sydney
Or spend your time, in san fran sisco
Or san diego, wherever your heart goes

No cash, no place to lay down
I’ll find my way out, I’ll end up in Cape town

What you gonna do with the little time you have
Damn these conversations we’ve already had
Maybe I should stay but I really need to go now
I’m with the wrong crowd
It’s time to bow out

I’m sick and tired being someone that I don’t wanna be
I love you all its hard to leave
And I mean it when I say the love runs deep
I’m not running away and no I’m not weak
I’ll miss Sean, he’ll miss me
What if he won’t go to sleep

What you gonna do with the little time you have
Damn these conversations we’ve already had
Maybe I should stay but I really need to go now
I’m with the wrong crowd
It’s time to bow out

Who's Dead, How's the Weather?

Who's Dead, How's The Weather?

Hollow Coves - Coastline (Cover)

Latin was my first love, and music is my second. I've utterly fallen for those of the soulful, creative, inspiring and inciting kind. The one composed with heart and soul, the one performed with passion and aplomb. Searching for a way to express my love for and enthusiasm about music, I've found twitter is a decent and effective place to do so, yet given my wordy nature 140 characters one day simply didn't suffice to promote the music I enjoy anymore. This is how my music blog - carpe carmina - came into being (a heartfelt thank-you goes out to my favourite UK band High/Low for the encouragement to start writing about music, to my all time favourite band for so many years by now, Midnight Hour, for making me realize my affection for music and my wish to help those artists in whose talent I believe in, and to all those people who read my blog, who recommend and submit music for it). Find me under @NessiHolt on twitter and make sure to listen to @RadioKC to catch a playlist of mine each tuesday at 10pm (UK). Listen to Radio Kaos Caribou, Dr. Bones music show and Dave Monk's BBC Introducing Merseyside in general. It's worth it, it's where I - among others - find the music I eventually embossom. 



BWR wrote OK Hotel with stadiums in their heads . "Its where we want to be .The album is a statement of intent" . From  "Running With The Wolves" to the lo-fi intimacy of "Birmingham", it’s packed with the sort of  anthems that can fill those huge venues.
 Life-long friends Core and Davis grew up on the same council estate near Birmingham city centre.  As 18-year-olds, they bought guitars from Argos and started picking up licks by ear at a local indie night. An early noughties diet of the Libertines, Kings of Leon and Arctic Monkeys convinced them that this was their life path…
And yet, for all the evocative nods to the USA, it’s the band’s home city that provides the record’s most powerful undercurrent. "Birmingham" acts as a love song to the place they were born in “and will die in”. And it all comes back to the refrain ‘and in Birmingham is where I found my feet, and in Birmingham is where I’ll lose my teeth’.
“I can’t remember there being a song about Birmingham, unless it’s Birmingham Alabama,” Core reasons. “But these are our experiences, this is where we’re from; the line ‘a broken blue nose is poetry in motion, and all the villains have broken bones’, that’s referring to the football clubs Aston Villa and Birmingham City, they were always fighting… Football has always been part of our culture growing up, so we wanted to get these kind of references in".
