something

somewhere in these eyes, i'm on your side

Beach House - Space Song (Cover)

i was too scared 
to fall in love 
to feel someone else’s touch 

all i heard 
wasn’t enough 
for you i fell so hard 

and that is why you’re so amazing
and that is why i feel frustrated 
and after all is set stone we’ll 
go on and regret nothing more

here i go now on my own
feeling lost and so alone it’s
what it is and was before 
nothings changed it’s you i’m leaning on

now it’s too late
to conjure up
the courage i felt so tough

i’m right there 
when you’re not
i shouldn’t have fell so hard
 
and that is why you’re so amazing
and that is why i feel frustrated 
and after all is set stone we’ll 
go on and regret nothing more

here i go now on my own
feeling lost and so alone it’s
what it is and was before 
nothings changed it’s you i’m leaning on

Nothings Changed

[Verse]
We ran through the streets barefoot and free
Jump ropes spinning like a melody
Secrets whispered by the old oak tree

[Prechorus]
The rain came down we didn’t hide
Our laughter echoed far and wide

[Chorus]
Under the sun under the rain
We found the world in a paper plane
Hands in hands through joy and pain
Childhood’s a song we can’t explain

[Verse 2]
Hopscotch squares drawn on cracked cement
Trading marbles till the day was spent
Every scratch and bruise was time well lent

[Prechorus]
The sun went down but we stayed awake
Dreams and giggles we couldn’t fake

[Chorus]
Under the sun under the rain
We found the world in a paper plane
Hands in hands through joy and pain
Childhood’s a song we can’t explain

Under the Sun and Rain.mp3

storefronts that day costly id say 
carelessly lost in the lines on your face
 she fell in love with that coat but she couldn't afford it

outside tonight winds from the right 
blew us away as we ran back inside
 we stood there with our drinks choking up the hallway

you stood there so tall cashmere and all 
hands draped on hands as you lean on that wall
 you told me you were fine but i didn't believe you

have you enjoyed a most deafening noise 
that you thought to be mostly amusing
 i've been around here but never stayed so near
 a place that i thought you'd be waiting

plastered on vanilla walls were posters of the railroads 
artifacts of engine tracks and those with heavy workloads
 will you ride with me we can leave it behind us

lately ive known you tend to show 
eyes filled with more than just color and tone
 she cried there in my arms as i told here to stay here
 she cried there in my arms as she told me she'd stay here

mostly amusing

Following her two impeccable releases, debut single "Vanilla" and most recent cut "All I Do", Sydney artist Moody Beach unveils her highly anticipated debut EP Moody Beach, out August 4 via Personal Best Records.

One of this year's brightest new acts, Moody Beach aka Melissah Marie, tells all in her blissful four-tracker. While each track is a stand-alone stunner, together they make for 11 and a half minutes of some broody-sweet listening. Her debut single "Vanilla" instantly setting the mood with it's 90s riff and shoe-gaze vocals. "All I Do" comes next, in a hazy continuity of neo-psychedelia. A tempo change is introduced with "I Should Exercise" with an absorbing slow-fuse, and once more with "Hawaii", a Best Coast-style love song, rich in texture, bringing the EP to an emotional end.

Starting out as a bedroom project, Marie has watched Moody Beach evolve into a full band with a growing live presence. After moving to Sydney from Adelaide and wanting to find more spaces to play live and develop her sound, Marie began curating Cult Club; a quarterly party held at Hair by Tommy J, a local barber shop near her house in Redfern. Cult Club prides itself on showcasing emerging artists from Sydney's underground who play to a crowd no bigger than 100, and is one of the spaces where Marie solidified her Moody Beach project.

The Moody Beach EP masterfully showcases the disparate influences ranging from Roy Orbison and The Cure to Blondie and The Pixies, interweaved into dream-pop melodies. Her hazy psychedelic guitar lines and enigmatic lyrics create a transfixing new take on alt-indie-pop.

Marie is currently working on her new and improved live show, as well as directing and producing her own visuals for an EP cut. Be sure to keep an eye out for Sydney's indie darling in a live setting and sink your teeth into her debut EP.

Hello my dearest Soundcloud friends, 
Here is a song that I wrote and recorded in my Voice memos on the floor of a shower. I was in London, feeling vulnerable and lonely. I sent the song to one of my dearest friends Tahnee. It was only intended to be a draft but I told her that in the future I'd like to sing something like this with her.
She got back to me recently with a copy of the song that she had recorded harmonies, banjo and violin on. It made me cry with happiness and I wanted to share this with you. 
You can find Tahnee's Soundcloud and Spotify name under
 ~ Tahnee Ollerton ~
So please check her out if you haven't already. 
If you would like a copy of the lyrics let me know. 
All my love, 
Isabella X
