Heart Stuck

A song inspired by conversations (both real and imagined) between a richly diverse mix of passengers on a slow train through a sun-weary and mellow rural England in early Autumn 2025. Lyrics by Phil Preston, performed by Night On The Moon (AI).

Song Of The Day - @bestfitmusic - http://www.thelineofbestfit.com/new-music/song-of-the-day/the-slow-revolt-lean

'The Slow Revolt, has been previously hailed for his flawless contrasting of genres. His newest track “Lean” is another plunge pool into the enchanting sound of beautiful tranquility and lovely layers.

The consistent guitar melody opens the track into a misty landscape of morning dew and seaside freshness, complete with subtle bursts of distorted guitars and a building tension of unpredictable electronica percussion. Mirza’s enchanting vocals bounce beautifully across the layered melodies, building in each bar to a pinnacle of bubbling sounds, changing the scenery from an empty landscape to a busy crossroads of texturised sounds.

Whilst maintaining his soft vocals throughout, the instrumentals in “Lean” carry the textured tension, blending beautifully into a melodic chaos that seems both unnerving and utterly soothing at the same time.'

'Lean' is the first in a series of tracks; experiments, curiosities & versions, culled from ongoing writing sessions.

Alexander is a love song to a leader and, like all stories of hero worship, it's sad. It isn't only about Donald: we're from Britain and in our recent history we've repeatedly rallied behind charismatic men and women who have transpired to be vacuous, narcissistic, and hugely destructive. Alexander the Great literally conquered the known world in a frenzy of imperial gluttony. Within a few years of his death, that empire had vanished. The thirst for power is not only insatiable, it is deeply and inevitably tragic.

LYRICS
Getting high at a quarter to nine,
and you throwing all your favourite lines.
And that red-head said he's living with you,
and he copies everything you do...

And you throw your California smile,
and you warn me this could take a while,
So while you think of something to do,
I'm thinking I could stick with you.

Cause you're great Alexander, you're great Alexander 
you've made up a name for yourself
Cause you're great Alexander, The Great Alexander 
you've made up a name for yourself

In a town at the edge of the Nile,
I can see that California smile.
There's a boat with your name on the side
and it waits for the turn of the tide.

In between your Casino and mine,
I can see that there's a delicate line.
And I can't tell our voices apart,
and I can't tell your life from art

You're a ghost Alexander, at most Alexander.
You've made up a name for yourself.
Cause you're great Alexander, The Great Alexander,
You're still sitting there on the shelf...

Cause you threw me California,
the Great California,
ring me when you've had enough of California.
You're a ghost Alexander, 
the Great Alexander,
you've made up a name for yourself, Alexander.

The first Alexander, 
The Great, Alexander, the Great's, the only man that you hate, Alexander.
You threw me California,
I can't beat Alexander, the Great's, the only man that you hate.

I SAID YES - Alexander

Lyrics
Everything's fine in the suburbs
They’ve neatened up the grass where it meets the curb
Someone's left the post with the neighbour
I know it's just the same old behaviour
But I can't conceal that hole I feel.

That familiar crunch of the gravel
Underneath my feet as I unravel
I'll go and find a new way of living
If everyone's a friend and I'm forgiven
How can I deny, just say goodbye and go?

It's all the same when I get home
In the suburbs, in the suburbs
No reason to be on my own
In the suburbs, in the suburbs
And the warmest of hugs will never be enough.

Everything's fine in the city
Hide everything away if it's not pretty
Go and watch the world from the window
Shut your eyes at night and still see the glow
And it starts to heal that hole I feel.

Unfamiliar faces who walk past
I'm struggling with sonder but it doesn't last
Excited by a new way of living
But the people on the ground are not forgiving
How can I return? I’ll never learn, I know.

It's all the same when I get home
In the suburbs, in the suburbs
No reason to be on my own
In the suburbs, in the suburbs
And the warmest of hugs will never be enough.

When home is everywhere else.
