Awesome! Sounds like the bad twin brother of a Belle and Sebastian track. Love it!

extraordinary chord progressions...  LOVE!  hypnotic

7 years back. I didn't even know about Soundcloud yet. Haha. :)

A bit of a steam train sort of vibe in the beat. Great vocals. Great guitars too. :)

Yea, really digging the lyrics and vocal presentation in this one. Very well sung, with an utterly hook-driven musical accompany.

On this Island we knew
like the back of our small hands
Throwing stones and backstreet slang

On this Island we grew
in just a flick of our big eyes
and baggy shorts, lords of the flies

Bloody knees and football roars
Screaming mums and hard slamming doors

On this Island we flew
Thieves for sweets and naughty magazines
Outlaws for the most simple dreams

On this Island we drew
so many secret plans in the dark
save the light that shone from the stars

Bloody noses on concrete fists
Fights about nothing, first cigarette mists

Yeah with no feeling of head in the sand
in the struggle to be head of the band
On this Island at this school
in breaking all the rules that’s the plan
Yeah with a feeling of up to no good
On this Island, on this wreck
or most simply our neck of the woods

On this Island of blue streets
filled with banged down limousines
in which we were the kings so lean

On this Island we knew
like the back of our small hands
Throwing stones and backstreet slang

mOag - On this island

Bad keys, shaky shakers, 
acoustic and tremolo guitars... 
I try to not grill ALL of these ingredients
ALL of the time... but it’s hard.
