Today is a new day
Brush it off you've got a new broom
Every morning there's a new dawn
Every month we get a new moon
Don't get too obsessed with the linear
This Earth is spherical
So follow that telescope
You're not alone just show persistence
We're all made out of solar systems
My verse about the universe is expanding
So lift up your glass timer with sand in
Tilt your head
Those seconds that you waved goodbye
Are upside down now you're making time

If I give you warmth
Promise you'll take it with you
When it feels right
Pass it on too
If I give you warmth
Promise you'll take it with you
When it feels right
Pass it on too

Feel the water flowing over you
You never miss the well 'til it's well overdue
Let the rain in
I understand the complaining
But try to separate yourself from what is draining
They say a stopped clock is right twice a day
But nobody knows when that is
Unless you get another clock
Which kind of defeats the point
Keep grounded
But also let yourself be astounded
Laugh at life
But try to recognise the profound bits
Keep your head in the clouds
But always look both ways
What came first
The chicken or the crossing the road
You can't take anything with you when you go
That's why I'm having an existential moment in the supermarket
Clutching my bag for life

If I give you warmth
Promise you'll take it with you
When it feels right
Pass it on too
If I give you warmth
Promise you'll take it with you
When it feels right
Pass it on too

Pass it on too
Pass it on too
Pass it on too
Pass it on too

If I give you warmth
Promise you'll take it with you
When it feels right
Pass it on too
If I give you warmth
Promise you'll take it with you
When it feels right
Pass it on too

Gecko - Pass It On

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. 



Gecko is a North London based artist, his playful lyrics cover the big things in life; think Grant Mitchell, Libraries & Guanabana fruit juice to name but a few.

Gecko has previously appeared at Glastonbury, Bestival, Pinkpop in the Netherlands and the London 2012 Olympics, as well as being showcased on the Radio 1 Breakfast show as part of BBC Introducing. Gecko videos have been tweeted by the likes of Ed Sheeran and his music has been used on BBC THREE TV.
