"Robot was one of those songs that practically wrote itself. All the lyrics and melodies were completed in about an hour and a few days later it was recorded, produced and mixed. Everything was done in a tacky home studio in Berlin. We sometimes get those chaotic, creative attacks when we shut down everything around us and just work for days. Those moments can be a bit tough but also fantastic." //NOVAH

Tilly's Song

'Darling' by Adam Barnes

Over the past few years, Oxford born singer/songwriter Adam Barnes has truly embodied the twenty-first century definition of a troubadour. In a bid to share his stirring songs of heartache with the world, the 23 year old singer has taken his music to the world, touring throughout Europe, across the USA and beyond, taking in many a sofa and floor along the way, and consistently wowing audiences en route.

The release of his debut album 'The Land, the Sea & Everything Lost Beneath' last summer - a stunning and subtle collection of English-bred Americana - saw the world suddenly come to Adam, increasing his fanbase and extending his travels to further reaches of the globe. With an ever-expanding listenership, Adam's musical ambitions have in turn grown, as can be heard on his new 5-track EP 'One Day We'll Be Fine', released on Sept 27th via his own newly founded imprint Wild Native Records.

'Darling', the stunning EP opener, is a real highlight not just on the EP but of Barnes' entire catalogue. Fragile and raw to start, this 4 minute wonder builds to an anthemic climax, littered with irresistible  melodic hooks and smartly phrased lyrics throughout. 

Lyrically, the song examines the passing of time, the start of endings, and the natural human regret we can all feel about these things. Adam Barnes: "I guess 'Darling' is a song about the fear of everything ending...and about not telling the people you love what you feel before it's too late..." 
Honest and pure, 'Darling' is perhaps Adam Barnes' finest musical moment to date. 

Adam Barnes began his singer-song writing career in 2010 with early support slots for the likes of William Fitzsimmons and Slow Club in his hometown of Oxford. He has since released one EP ('Blisters') and one full-length album ('The Land, the Sea & Everything Lost Beneath"), both to critical acclaim throughout Europe, whilst his live performances have become renowned for their intimate intensity.

LYRICS

The wind beat your fathers' face
Every mark with it's own embrace
I'm here, but I won't replace
Oh how could I anyway? 

Those times bred a harder man
A post-war child living mouth to hand
Built of granite and grit and sand
But time erodes

And you brought in your lines
On hooks you made together
Thin metal, bent, intertwined
Stale bread in paper bags

Cared not that the days were dark
And the nights no better
Your eye's welled as the boat would start
You could have stayed forever 

You're just breathing out and breathing in
It's all you have it's all you've got to give
I tried to be everything
I couldn't stop these walls from falling in

There's not a memory you haven't lived
There's not a word that I can save you with
Now the silence it is deafening
Must we break ourselves to start again? 

More time, she said
I love you more than life I begged
But I can't read your mind
Oh let's dress up and we can go outside 

Over and over and over 

We can't live like this
The telly, the curtains, our union in bits 
I won't leave you now for the sake of the kids
But you don't see me anymore 

Can't you remember what we were before?

You're just breathing out and breathing in
It's all you have it's all you've got to give
I tried to be everything
I couldn't stop these walls from falling in

There's not a memory you haven't lived
There's not a word that I can save you with
Now the silence it is deafening
Must we break ourselves to start again? 

Broken Oars

Breathless

Looking at glass up on the wall
It's staring back, right back
*When will my reflection hear the call?

I hear the figure start to speak
he says, "you're not the same."
I start to think
Who's to blame for it all?
When I'm looking at glass
Up on the wall
_____

Standing on a stage you're unaware
Just behind the yellow glare
*there is no one here to see

A sea of faces where I sink
Taking pictures as I blink
I've never known who I should be
I've never known which song to sing
_____

You are not the same boy
But you are not a man 
_____

Black and white are turning grey
All my thoughts, all my dreams
*I turn to them, they turn away

I miss my home, my southern shore
*Unlock the land and give me more
Is this the hand that I must play?
Is my identity at stake?
______

You are not the same boy
But you are not a man
