The 1975 - Somebody Else (Instrumental)

Kate Bush - Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God)

(Verse 1)
In the quiet of the morning light,
When the world is still, before the fight,
I hear a whisper calling deep inside,
A sacred place where my fears collide.
No noise, no rush, just breath and time,
A secret rhythm, a silent rhyme.
(Pre-Chorus)
And in the calm I start to see,
The hidden truth inside of me.
(Chorus)
The power of silent,
It heals me when I'm broken,
It speaks without a word,
A truth that’s left unspoken.
The power of silent,
Where shadows turn to gold,
Where every wound grows softer,
And all my fears let go.
(Verse 2)
I walk through nights of endless sound,
But in the stillness, I feel the ground.
The heartbeat slow, the mind set free,
A gentle wave of clarity.
The quiet tears, the inner glow,
A peaceful storm that helps me grow.
(Pre-Chorus)
And in the dark I learn to breathe,
And trust the things I cannot see.
(Chorus)
The power of silent,
It heals me when I'm broken,
It speaks without a word,
A truth that’s left unspoken.
The power of silent,
Where shadows turn to gold,
Where every wound grows softer,
And all my fears let go.
(Bridge)
In silence I remember,
Who I was before the noise.
In silence I recover,
I find my strength, I hear my voice.
No sound can ever carry,
What silence holds inside…
A thousand hidden stories,
A place where souls collide.
(Final Chorus)
The power of silent,
It lifts me when I’m falling,
A quiet kind of magic,
A deeper inner calling.
The power of silent,
The truth beneath the noise,
Where I return to stillness,
And finally hear my voice.

Gloria Laing - Why Cant I Have You

This EP began in June 2012 with what was really supposed to be a demo (I'm not just making this up to have a cool story to tell you, plus this story isn't even cool). 

I had just written the opening track "City Lights" and was recording it so I wouldn't forget the melody. I played and sang it into a single microphone before rushing off to go grocery shopping, or swimming maybe. I listened back later and didn't mind the sound, even though it wasn't very professional sounding. Over the next several weeks I recorded 6 or 7 more in the same way, guitar and vocals into a single microphone. Then I layered on everything I could think of, including an Akai AX60 synthesizer, D.I.'d slide guitar, a Helpinstill portable piano, and half a drum kit (where's the hi-hat?). I picked the best six songs and eventually finished them, and now I'm sharing them with you. Hope you enjoy. Lots more to come.
