No Clear mind - Dream Is Destiny

Damien Rice - Cheers Darlin

Featuring Ed Harcourt, the muse of this track is World War II Soviet sniper Roza Shanina. It's taken from Rae & Christian's forthcoming album 'Mercury Rising', released on Late Night Tales' new sub label "Night Time Stories" on 20th October 2013.

"While writing abstractly about love and loss and going to a club of an evening are all passable things to write songs about, sometimes you just want a folk-tinged ode to a Russian female sniper. Thankfully production duo Rae & Christian have delivered just that with their new single, The Ballad of Roza Shanina. Taken from their forthcoming third album, Mercury Rising – their first since 2001's Sleepwalking – it features the soft, crumpled croon of Ed Harcourt and is based on the life of Soviet sniper, Roza Shanina, who fought and died during World War II. Having put herself forward to serve her country following the death of three of her brothers in battle, she went on to become the first Soviet female sniper to be awarded the Order of Glory and died trying to shield a wounded soldier in 1945. It's this context that fuels the lilting strum of The Ballad, with Harcourt singing from the perspective of Shanina and a loved one, the chorus of "Over and over, I'll wait for you, my Roza, my Roza", mocked by the line that precedes it: "one day all the shooting stops...One day came too late for you and me".

Rae & Christian - The Ballad of Roza Shanina ft. Ed Harcourt

Spend my evenings down the riverside
my favorite place when you're not here
awaiting dusk to throw a tinted smile
for every nightfall brings you near

I long to...

Give all I hold for you and twirl inside
come closer in, caress your soul
so come and find me down the waterline
we'll stroll a bit and then go home.

When You Are Not Here_ NoClearMind

''Kat Frankie spent her youth in the sunburnt suburbs of Sydney, scribing countless songs in her parents' sweltering attic. She moved to Berlin in December 2004, where she is known for her passionate, dynamic and riveting live shows. Kat performs both solo and with band; both incarnations feature powerful arrangements that give space to her incredible voice; reaching from tender, sparse melancholy to dramatic, soaring aggression.
Kat's debut album, "Pocketknife" was released in Australia in September 2007, and in Germany January 2008, and has been highly praised in both countries. Kat has also released an EP titled "outside.now." and appears on several independent compilations from Australia and Germany.
Kat also features in BerlinSong, a music documentary made by Uli Schueppel about songwriters in Berlin. The film was selected to premiere at the 2007 Berlinale Film Festival.

Lyrics : 
she met you in the driveway it was so warm
and the neighbours still complaining about the heat
then she fell in your way, she broke down and said
I feel loved
but people, will tell you where to go
I don't know why their revelations bore me, I know I
won't go outside
but right there like a rabbit in the yard I'm aware of 
the predators this city conceals, I
know by
their eyes

but charlie, don't jump
stay in this world

you lay down in hallway it was so wide
like a slow dance with the carpet, cheek to cheek
and sensing with the feel and only known to you
higher ground
but people will tell you where to go, I don't know why
they clutch their faith as their only defense against the void
and right there like a rabbit in the yard I'm aware of
the predators this city conceals I
know by their eyes

but Charlie don't jump, stay in this world
charlie don't jump, there's so much to live for
Charlie don't jump, a lovers coming soon
Charlie don't jump, there's someone who needs you
