[Intro]
Someone is going to do it

[Verse 1]
Come on and get up on your feet now
You can sleep when you are dead
Come on and get up on your feet now
Obey as a machine

[Chorus]
Someone is going to do it
Someone is going to do it

[Verse 2]
Get some coffee in your brain now
Let the fluid flood your veigns
Get some coffee in your brain now
Get some coffee take cocaine

[Chorus]
Someone is going to do it
Someone is going to do it

[Verse 3]
Oh shit the boss is on the phone now
And I think she's really mad
She wants to know why I am late today
Maybe because I'm still in bed

[Chorus]
Someone is going to do it
Someone is going to do it

[Instrumental]

[Verse 4]
Get in that car and drive to work now
Dig that hole until it's done
Get in that car and drive to work now
Enjoy the morning sun

[Outro]
Someone is going to do it
to do it
Someone is going to do it
to do it
Someone is going to do it

Someone Is Going To Do It

Lula Mirage-Say it with your eyes [MUTANT REBELS]

la la la
The sand calls
The sand calls
Oh

Walking slow
Something pulls me through this land
Can't say what, can't say when
Mirage shimmers on the sand
la la la

Sand and moon, sand and moon
Take me there, take me soon
Sand and moon, sand and moon
Guide me gently in this dune
Oh oh oh

Dunes roll on like waves at night
Ancient voices lost from sight
Wind knows all the secret ways
Shows me stories, makes me stay
la la la

Sand and moon, sand and moon
Take me there, take me soon
Sand and moon, sand and moon
Guide me gently in this dune
Oh oh oh

What am I searching for
In this space so wide
What am I searching for
Under endless skies
la la la

Footsteps fade behind tonight
Only stars and shifting ground
Desert speaks in tongues unknown
Echoes lost, but I am found
Oh

Sand and moon, sand and moon
Take me there, take me soon
Sand and moon, sand and moon
Guide me gently in this dune
Oh oh oh

The sand calls
la la la
Take me there, take me there

Sand and Moon

BETTER
When the world feels better
And when you’re out of luck
I hope that I can be better
Compared, and yet I’m stuck

Hard to feel the dark
When everyone’s better
The hate you share is worse than being better—it’s just letters

To fight the madness in the dark
Is visible by day; oh, where do I start?

Oh, I confess my feelings are hard to put down
When happiness is toxic and it dances all around
Who knows who you truly are? It’s a mystery
And; Yet I think you’re more simple, you’ve got a head, so think

When the time is near
Hope that you find your fears
To feel alive is better
Than any kind of letters

I suppose it’s all the same
I hope you remember my name

When the world feels better
And when you’re out of luck
I hope that I can be better

Better

Acclaimed American singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Peter Broderick is set to release his new solo album Blackberry on 28th August via Erased Tapes. This is a digital surprise release with the physical release following on October 30. Blackberry is Peter’s first vocal album in five years, since 2015’s Colours of the Night. The entire album was recorded in Peter’s bedroom in London during the summer of 2019, hence Peter’s description of it as “Experimental-Bedroom-Folk-Pop”. All instrumentation is by Peter with additional vocals on the last track by his wife, singer Brigid Mae Power, and his stepson, Seán Power. 

The subject matter of Blackberry is wide-ranging. He touches on family and on the connection we all need as social animals. He writes about technology and whether it will save or doom us. And of course, he writes about nature, about foraging, about the importance of engaging with the outside world in cities and in the country. Peter and his family recently returned to Co. Galway as they have a great love for the Irish countryside, having lived there before their move to London in 2019.

Peter explains the idea behind the album and its name, saying: “It is with all seriousness and great reverence that this album is named Blackberry. In a time when us humans are coming face to face with the impact of our actions on the environment at large, I strongly advocate for engaging with our local landscapes. When I first became obsessed with foraging edible wild plants a few years back, I wasn’t particularly excited about the humble blackberry, but I would soon return with great passion to this familiar fruit of my youth. Even in our most urban environments, the gnarled and resilient blackberry vines continue to weave themselves throughout, as if to keep reminding us where we come from.”

Peter Broderick is perhaps most well known as a live member of Efterklang, the Danish indie-rock group with whom he played from 2007-2013. In recent years he’s been kept busy working on the archives of Arthur Russell, being hired to perform audio restoration, editing and mixing for the latest posthumous release by the cult icon. Peter has also released over twenty solo recordings in the last thirteen years, as well as composed music for film and dance, most recently the multi-award winning animated film Two Balloons. Not wanting his creativity to be reined in by any one genre, Peter has explored gospel and soul, spoken word and beat boxing, through to folk and rock and classical. He thrives on constant experimentation and collaboration with like-minded creators. Early 2020 saw him performing in the band of Tim Burgess (Charlatans), whose latest chart topping solo album features Broderick on violin.

The first vocal line on Blackberry is “You can only be as happy as the world that you live in…” — a sentiment that all of us can relate to as we struggle with climate change, with a global pandemic and resulting lockdown, with an uncertainty about the future that the modern world generates in us all. But as musicians like Peter soundtrack these turbulent times, they provide us with a lifeline, a way of looking at the world that is hopeful and full of wonder.
