Any artist is welcome to send us a track via freshonthenet.co.uk anytime between Monday lunchtime and Thursday morning - and all our moderators, including Tom Robinson, will listen to every track. This is our full inbox from the week beginning Mon 5th March: from midday on Friday you'll be able to hear our shortlist and pick your favourites on this week's Listening Post which will appear at freshonthenet.co.uk/batch275

If a track you submitted does not appear in this list, it is likely because another of your tracks appeared in our Fresh Faves or on the BBC Music Introducing Mixtape during the last three months — we ask that artists featured on either wait three months before resubmitting to give others a chance. You may resubmit the track in future.

Maribelle

By the early nineties R.E.M. found themselves one of the biggest bands on the planet. What they had achieved was beyond their wildest dreams but it had taken them over a decade to get there. This RTÉ Radio One music documentary recorded in Athens, Georgia and North Carolina in the US by Ken Sweeney takes the listener on that journey with R.E.M. out of Athens (Georgia). Without slick videos for the new MTV, or support from mainstream radio, R.E.M. built their following playing an alternative circuit of
gigs across America as evangelists for this new music. R.E.M. blazed a trail for every independent band to follow from Nirvana to Pearl Jam.

R.E.M. | Out Of Athens

Come Back came to me while I was writing on the piano one beautiful spring morning. The story is about how most of us catch ourselves talking to the ones we love when actually for all sense and purposes, they are not really there, or are they?
If they are, then I say, Come Back and talk to me again.

Come Back

Little things

A rough, unmixed and unreleased version of 'How Many Saints?' recorded with Michael Ferentino & Andres Karu in the summer of 2001. Recorded in New Jersey, USA, the intention was to include the track on my Miles Hunt Club album, but it never made the cut. I still think it has some great qualities though. Miles. x

How Many Saints?

lyrics:

i'm ready for the punch 
but it may never come 
that's how i live my life 
terrified & dumb 

something has gone missing 
or never was there at all 
i've never felt desire 
for anything at all 

i don't know what to tell ya 
that i haven't said before 
i feel the same old feelings: 
it's like a kick on the floor 

why'd you tell me that you need it 
and then go off, disappearing? 
why'd you tell me 
'bout your real love? 

hopin' that 
you'd see it 
i've spent 
years in secret 
all my life 
been keepin' 
all these li(v)es 
i still need 'em

The Brook (Ami's Tune)

With thanks to Paul Lewis who posted it at https://youtu.be/H79_3Nv_eWo "The song ‘Merrily Upon High’ recorded on 21 December 1978 at Pye Studios in London. It was co-written and performed by Peter Gabriel and Tom Robinson. It was recorded specially for Nicky Horne’s Capital Radio show and broadcast for the first time later that day. The pair played a charity concert at Hammersmith Odeon on 24th December 1978. They were joined on stage by Phil Collins, Elton John and Mike Rutherford, plus members of Tom Robinson Band and Peter Gabriel’s musicians. I found this track in a box of tapes that I had kept for close to 40 years. I was delighted to find it still played OK. As far as I can tell this track has never seen an official release, although a re-recording was released by Tom Robinson sometime in the early 1980’s after TRB had split up."
