Animals in the Kitchen

UNDERWATER

Underwater
You're in my head 
And I hear forever T
hose things you said

I breathe in
I breathe out
I go up
I go down

If only I could breathe underwater
Maybe then I'd sing you a lullaby

The words I'm chasing
Lie in the basement of my mind 
The words I'm chasing
Lie in the basement of my mind

Underwater
You're in my head 
And I hear forever 
Those things you said
There's no time There's no game 
I feel fine There's no pain
I think I can breathe underwater 
Maybe then I could sing you a lullaby

Underwater
You're in my head 
And I hear forever 
Those things you said

"I scribbled these lyrics down on the first day of spring in 2023. My flatmate and I had been sick for a month, I was finally strong enough to pick up my guitar and play this little mantra of a riff. These lyrics take place in Nevada City, California, at the cemetery on the top of the hill, where my dearest friend and I would picnic and visit the grave of a long-gone infant. Once, under the moonlight, we brought my harp up there and I played for the dead. We’d read poetry to each other and to the residents, discuss our sadness and our gratitude, say hello to the man who was living in the 100-year old ponderosa above us that would eventually be chopped down by PG&E. This song is for the friend who brings poetry everywhere, to everyone. I have more than one version of baby blues, all of them are for her." - meka

meka is the musical guise of American multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Melissa Lingo whose transcendent musicality and utterly exquisite vocal transports listeners to the hazy sweet spot of 60’s-70’s folk.

"The Bergamot's Lush 'L.A.' Song and Video Is a Feast for the Ears and Eyes"
-PARADE Magazine [Preimere]

The Bergamot's New Single - L.A. Out everywhere on June 28th.

So many great songs have been written about heading out west, not so many about leaving.

Somewhere between the lavish lives of the successful tycoon and the struggling artist, is the everyday story of someone packing up. Quietly moving on to the next phase of life. Getting away from the lure of dreams and distant hopes, and into the harsh reality: what comes after the dreams silently slip away? L.A. attempts to take a look at moving on with a dimly veiled eye of reality - with an ever persisting hope "I WANT to believe in you" but alas here we are.

The distorted howls call out to the listener, darkening an already bleak scenario. Almost as if a dream, being pulled from the light, falls into the depths of one's memories. The music lurches on with a tribal beating - simple yet pushing - as the kick drum distorts the mix. The fleet-fingered acoustic guitars wind in an element of natural beauty, yet arriving at an uncertain resolve. The song contains what we have come to know as our sonic signature - a harmonious cacophony of layered vocals over a minimal mix. Resolving into a tailspin of sounds including feedback looped pianos through guitar amps, guitars through synths, taking the listener to it's final resting spot as the harmonies begin their final chant "Goodbye L.A." - "I want to believe in you" - "Goodbye L.A." - "I want to believe in you". 

The song "L.A." was originally written in the key of C, but in the studio was dropped to D to help deliver more of a crooning timbre for the lead vocals. Overall, I hope the song speaks to the emotion of moving on. Whether it be love - or dreams - this song attempts to illustrate an emotional perspective where you have to let go, but hopefully, are not lost. 

LYRICS

She left L.A. with a song in her head
Elle left L.A. and off she went
She left for the city with the stars in her eyes
Elle left L.A. and she doesn't know why
So she's moving on
By the time I write this song
She'll be gone

The kids all cried 'cuz they don't understand
Elle left L.A. this was never the plan
She's hoping for a life living out there on the road
She was hoping for something new 'cuz she was growing old
So she's moving on
By the time I write this song
She'll be gone

Goodbye L.A.
Goodbye L.A.
Goodbye L.A.
Goodbye L.A.

She packed her bags and she wrote this note
Now she's gone
Now she's gone
She made her way while I wrote this song
Now she's gone
Now she's gone

Oh
Oh
Goodbye L.A.
Goodbye L.A.
Goodbye L.A.
Goodbye L.A.
I want to believe in you
Goodbye L.A.
I want to believe in you
Goodbye L.A.
Goodbye L.A.
