Any artist is welcome to send us a track via freshonthenet.co.uk anytime between Monday lunchtime and Thursday morning - and all our moderators will listen to every track. This is our full inbox from the week beginning Mon 15 October: from midday on Friday you'll be able to hear our shortlist and pick your favourites on this week's Listening Post which will appear at freshonthenet.co.uk/batch300

If a track you submitted does not appear in this list, it’s probably because another of your tracks appeared in our Fresh Faves or on the BBC Music Introducing Mixtape during the last three months — we ask that artists featured on either wait three months before resubmitting to give others a chance. You will be able to resubmit the track in future.

ENTIRE INBOX: Batch 300

The curtain rises and behind it are the eyes of every life you deny
And we the people once were peaceful but we feel your grip is getting too tight
You’d think we never knew you, never knew your game
You sick politicized nation, you smug religious shifter of blame
 
I’m the only man that can hold back the thunder
I’m the only man that writes his name in the sky
I’m the only man that you’ll always be under
I’m the man that never needed to try, oh my
 
He comes rising with the sun, the chosen one with revolutionary eyes
He has no gun he has the love of everyone and everything you despise
You thought he never knew you, never knew your name
You’re just an ugly situation at a patient executioner’s blade
 
I’m the only man that can hold back the thunder
I’m the only man that writes his name in the sky
I’m the only man that you’ll always be under
I’m the man that never needed to fly, so high
 
CHROUS
The war is at your door we’re the new generation
The underdog’s eyes will watch the powerless rise
Romance the Revolution and call to the nation
Because I’m the only man that you’ll never defy
You will never again defy

Romancing Revolution

[Lyrics]
After the rain, you told me how it’s made
Under the clouds, you are there to remain
Just the way before my eyes, follows the seabirds in disguise

Oh
Oh

Splashes of gold, my feet are soaking wet
But above them all, are tall wide open space
Blue takes me away
Do I remember his face?

Oh
Oh

I fought my love dearly
And I’m lost inside weary 
But all those mistakes I found were gone
With water in my eyes

You ....... return me
You ....... take me
You
You ....... Vancouver

Long forgotten languages
 have all found the advantages
of saying 'I miss you'.
Funny phrase you say alone 
when somebody you love is gone
you they miss you too.

And I'd be strong
if I never needed someone,
if I never needed someone,
if I didn't belong to 
those creatures that move in groups.

Living in confusion 
with bad conflict resolution
all because we're not brave.
Do they know the core of you 
or just this poor performance that you use
to save face?


And I'd be strong
if I never needed someone,
if I never needed someone,
if I didn't belong to 
those creatures that move in groups.

"In the single “The Same Job” by TS Bright, the band only needed 2 verses and a chorus, consisted of 4 lyrical lines each, in order to create probably the greatest poetry in the music of this century and answer any gnawing question that’s blowing in the wind." - Grotesqualizer.

"The song “The Same Job” is distinguished by gentle and unconventional vocal melodies, unusual not only for the folk genre, but in general." - Grotesqualizer.

"The simple and eccentric deviation to what music should be is entertaining." - comeherefloyd.

"‘The Same Job’ is a track that revels in it’s hooks but comes with it a solid level of depth too, making it one of the more enjoyable listens of the year." - Sounds Good.

You can choose any kind of Roman torture
Nobody leaves the line of suiciders
Please, pass me the ball,
I’ll just puncture it

In the beginning was the Sport
The fresh blood flows out of your throat
When you’ve caught a dirty shot
But now humor does the same job

You can try driving nails into hands
No one awakes from an infernal coma
All the naked bodies
Can not turn the tide

In the beginning was the Sport
The fresh blood flows out of your throat
When you’ve caught a dirty shot
But now humor does the same job

The Same Job

Out now.

'Neath dark, forbidding skies     
Get your sins reduced to lapses
Get your blessings in disguise

Got a thousand alibis
Got a quick effective answer
For anyone who tries

So don't look in those eyes

Monk Fright Eyes

Ego (official song)

LOOK AT ME

A song compiled from the eye-witness accounts of those present that fateful evening. Some scars never heal. True story...

A Bear In The Gypsy Rover

intro: Am Em B Em
verse: Em Am B Em
chorus: C G B Em

It was a Wednesday night
and the Open Mic
had just begun.
Mark was up
and he hadn't quite finished
his very first song.

And the bar was buzzing
'cos the night
had so much fun in store.
When the relative peace
was shattered
by what came through the door.

It was six feet long
and three feet wide
with a gaping maw
and blood-shot eyes.
Legs as stout
as an English oak
and fur the colour
of dirty smoke.

It booled along to the
end of the bar and
caused a stir,
then bounded back to
the startled front
and gave a grrrrr!

And the panic
only started
when it became clear
we were sharing the
Gypsy Rover
with a pretty mad bear.

It was six feet long
and three feet wide
with a gaping maw
and blood-shot eyes.
Legs as stout
as an English oak
and fur the colour
of dirty smoke.

There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover
There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover
We thought our lives were over
There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover

Well Jackie Pink
she didn't think
she dived right in;
and we ended up
with the landlady
bear wrestling.

Then it spied
a spaniel underneath
a table, hunched.
And it dragged
poor Jackie with it
as it went for lunch.

It was six feet long
and three feet wide
with a gaping maw
and blood-shot eyes.
Legs as stout
as an English oak
and fur the colour
of dirty smoke.

There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover
There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover
We thought our lives were over
There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover

There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover
There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover
We thought our lives were over
There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover

As the spaniel
gave a series of
blood curdling howls,
it was lifted up to
safety but
relaxed it's bowels.

The cast iron table
got flipped like
it wasn't there,
as beer and wine
and something else
flew through the air.

It was six feet long
and one inch wide
and sprayed us all
from side to side
it covered us
both up and down
and left us the colour
of chocolate brown.

There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover
There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover
We thought our lives were over
There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover

There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover
There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover
We thought our lives were over
There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover

To end all this commotion
and this monologue,
a man from Westbourne Grove
arrived to claim his

...dog?

(woof)

Now maybe on reflection
I should change
the song,
but thirty people
saw it and can't
all be wrong.

It was six feet long
and three feet wide
with a gaping maw
and blood-shot eyes.
Legs as stout
as an English oak
and fur the colour
of dirty smoke.

There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover
There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover
We thought our lives were over
There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover

There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover
There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover
We thought our lives were over
There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover

There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover
There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover
We thought our lives were over
There was a bear in the Gypsy Rover
