Within The Outer Fields

Our new and most outrageous, daring tune yet. We give you "Steely Beets'

Steely Beets

Happens a Lot

This song is all about the uncertainty, that comes with being in the early stages of developing a crush on a close friend. It's about going back and forth between being convinced you're falling for each other, and questioning whether the relationship is at a 'red light' or a 'green light'. Making you question what you could do to get to some clarity. It's about that classic weird in-between state of not knowing, but riding the wave to see where it goes. A mellow soul song for the summer feels.

Lyrics: 

Excuse me have you got the time?
Left my phone with a friend of mine
I'm a class tourist, apparently
Unemployed, but where's the breadline?

I've never known quite where I stand
Studied hard, worked jobs I hated
Two certificates for five years of my life
But nobody gives a fuck about paper

I got my foot in the door somewhere
Parents sorted my rent up front
So I could move just an hour away
To be let go in a matter of days

Told Mr Sainsbury I love his work
Free every day of the week
Not into all that arty stuff anymore
Just wanna earn my keep

But he could see right through my smile
Job Centre under my skin
Gotta take any work I can physically do
Until it does me in

Class tourist on my bike
Can't even get a job I don't like

Class Tourist (Radio Edit)

HYPE MACHINE is the fourth and final single dropped from YVA's upcoming debut EP by the same name. It is a prayer, a satirical sacrifice to the new gods of social media.

YVA cites Radiohead, IRAH, Massive Attack and early Fever Ray as her main inspirations for HYPE MACHINE, drawing from her love of drama and soundtracks to form an EP that is unrelenting in its approach of truth and meaning in a life that's gone fully virtual.
