‘PEOPLE PEOPLE’ is a defiant but deeply humane account of a reunion between two friends who meet again whilst waiting in queue at the local council office.  At face value this is no more than a casual conversation but beneath it runs layer upon layer of political context, personal truths and poignant social comments that become ever more raw as the track snowballs into an out and out call to arms. Begging the question that’s on all of our lips - 
When is enough enough? 
But despite the dystopia, genuine warmth emanates from this track, as the tone of Ruth’s delivery exudes hope at every twist and turn, enabling the social narrative to teeter between futility and ferocity without losing its sense of humour or our sense of Ruth’s own humility. The rewarding chorus, rich with male backing vocals, reaches out to the listener, like a hug for the ears, allowing the desperation of the situation to evaporate and a well earned sense of human kindness to prevail.

If I were a portrait
an abstract or found art...
would you try to change me
could you hear my voice
would you acknowledge my choice
and say I spiraled
I dipped
and somehow I got ripped
do you think you'd save me
O lord
is there a world in which I'd be the star
the centerpiece the attraction...
cause let me tell you how a renaissance extraction that ended in distraction, instead of history...
the inheritor of caption in immortal meme
yea babe
pollen falls from my frustration
a masterpiece
a remonstration
and O
I was a movement I was a field in Van Gogh's dreams
I was the Mona Lisa...
but no one favored me
so now I'm in the alley and I'm feeling down and apart and
If I were a portrait
an abstract or found art...
would you change me
tear out my voice
go against my choice
so I spiral...I dip
and somehow I am ripped
so will you save me
O oh o
will you save me
