I made you a mix tape of super cool mostly local kids and their super cool mostly local tracks. This list is by no means definitive given how thick and heavy Melbourne is with talent but is a small sample of those I've had the pleasure to see, perform alongside and admire. Those in the list who are not Melbourne based left their mark here too and for that I am grateful. Thanks for being rad Melbourne. Regards - Laura Davis      @}-,--'---

Thank you also to the venues that continue to put all these amazing people and myself on stage. Tote Hotel, John Curtain, Howler, Grace Darling, Old Bar, Bar Open, Public Project, Loop Bar, Long Play, Yarra Hotel, Post Office Hotel, Tramway Hotel, Also Gallery, Liberty Social (may it rest in peace)and many more, without them I would never have come in contact with any of these wonderful human beings and certainly my life would not be as full as it is today.

Let me know if I've missed anyone super obvious or for any reason you'd like me to remove your track from this list. x

Lyrics:

When your face was forming 
and the world was reddened mud 
All around you felt like all inside you* 
though I guess it always it does 

You're like a YoYo that glows in the dark 
What makes you special makes you dangerous** 
I wanted to write you a song 
so I pulled a few apart and made them into this one 

When the sky was falling 
and you couldn't ask for help 
You were sure there was one person to blame 
and that person was yourself 

You're like a YoYo that glows in the dark 
What makes you special makes you dangerous** 
And if the world don't love you then the world is wrong 
And if the world don't love you then the world is wrong 
You're so sad but so damn strong 
I said if the world don't love you then the world must be wrong 
It must be wrong 

*borrowed from Paul Kelly's From St Kilda to King's Cross ("And all around me felt like all inside me") 

**borrowed from Kate Bush's Cloudbusting ("You're like my yo-yo / That glowed in the dark / What made it special / Made it dangerous")

Totally Mild - Lucky Stars

Revert

Primo

You were waiting in the stairwell
For an excuse to love
Drinking wine and sending signals
Working hard to toe the line

Maybe someday we’ll be together
Have a house and nine to five
But you’re waiting in that stairwell
For a moment lost in time

Walking forward in a straight line
With a chasm at both sides
There’s no end just warning signals
But you’ve chosen to be blind

There’s a reprieve from your old life
You could lose yourself in work
You look up and time is passing
But you can’t reverse the clock

Well the wedding bells ring out
And you execute commands
To excuse yourself from reason
By the virtue of your hand

You’re giving all the strength left to you
Until your body turns to sand
Well you’re just waiting in that stairwell
For a way to understand

Bells
