as an insomniac, i can relate...   that aside, what a beautiful vocal performance.

Maybe there is no wrong side of morning, and all that matters is that you're there...You've been one of my favourite Soundcloud artists for the last decade.

"Wrong Side" is about how I'm nocturnal and always find myself on the wrong side of the morning, and the night, and seemingly many aspects of life. The birds start singing in the early hours and remind me that I'm still awake whilst the world is sleeping and I've turned everything upside down again. In those times I often find myself musing on the nature of time and how we interact with it, and how it carries on with or without us. But sometimes in that quiet time it enables you to see things a different way as you stop and wonder: why.

The biggest of thanks to my community for encouraging me to record this song, and especially to my twitch community for funding this project, constantly encouraging me and being so patient whilst I learnt how to record and produce this all myself. This single would not exist without you, and I'm so grateful to each and every one of you 💜


WRONG SIDE - Lyrics
by CERIAN

I stretch the night into day	
“It’s a backwards way to live” they say
I stretch the hours beside
But it won’t turn the tide of time away
	
And a choir of birds are singing songs 
That say “you don’t belong”
And the morning bells are ringing
Singing “time goes on and on”
And the world will turn without me
I’ll be late to say goodbye
If you ever saw the wrong side
Did you stop to wonder why?

I’m on the wrong side of the morning
And the wrong side of the night
Now the light side is dawning
I’ll be left cos I couldn’t be right

Here in no-man’s land	
There are no plans
But it doesn’t last
No-one to hold my hand
As I watch the sands of time 
Slide past

And a choir of birds are singing songs 
That say “you don’t belong”
And the morning bells are ringing
Singing “time goes on and on”
And the world will turn without me
I’ll be late to say goodbye
If you ever saw the wrong side
Did you stop to wonder why?

I’m on the wrong side of the morning
And the wrong side of the night
Now the light side is dawning
I’ll be left cos I couldn’t be right

The birds are singing like a symphony
For an audience of one
I know I’m meant to be asleep
For yesterday is gone

The birds are singing like a symphony
For an audience of one
I know it isn’t meant for me
Now a new day has begun

I’m on the wrong side of the morning
And the wrong side of the night
Now the light side is dawning
And I’m left cos I couldn’t be right

But the wrong side of the morning
Is the bright side of the night
When you stayed awake through the silence
To stop and wonder: why

Wrong Side

Love Is Stronger Than Pride [Sade cover]

HARVEST MOON | neil young | COVER

Welsh-based harpist Cerian returns to Radio Free Brooklyn for her second trip to NYC, this time equipped with early material, some never before heard songs, and a harpsicle that she plays live in the REC Room. Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch is also pronounced properly. Many an achievement unlocked here! (editor's note: This was Kathryn's final appearance on L&R.)

Ep 189 - It's Brightening Up

HAND IN MY POCKET | alanis morissette | COVER

I am a singing harpist and singer-songwriter-producer based in London. My debut EP "Caught in the Dark" is out now and is a series of songs written in the middle of the night. I am a lifelong insomniac and almost completely nocturnal, and my EP is a journey through my relationship with the darkness, with each song a colour representing the search for light. I never could have imagined I'd be releasing an EP about darkness and searching for light amidst such an incredibly difficult time in the world, but strangely it seems sort of pertinent.

I hope that with unity, love and care we will all come through this tough period, just as the sun will always rise in the morning. Although the title of the EP is "Caught in the Dark", that title track does end with a line of hope, "High on a rooftop, I felt the sun rise from a darkened cry."

If you would like to support my music and help me out during this difficult time, you can download my music from bandcamp, buy merch from my teespring store, or contribute to my paypal (all linked below).

Thank you so much for listening :)
