December Single

Sing My Life Away LIVE - recorded at Manchester Lane - Melbourne

Sing My Life Away LIVE (Audience Recording)

Co-written with Stuart Fraser.

There’s a little bird sittin’ under my window
Hear it’s song in the first light of day glow
Singin ‘hey it’s all yours now’, and I
Get on my clothes and get up a hair-do
Make a picture with words that you drew
Wanna hang ‘em all around

And I’m smilin’, can’t erase
From my face all the joy fall into place
Enough for you to take
And I’m rightin’, all the wrong
Got a cup overflowin’ it’s so full
And if the earth would shake -  I got you                     
Da da da da da da da da dum dum I got you
Da da da da da da da da da dar I got you
                    
There’s a gentle breeze are ya gonna come jump on
Snuggle up, let it carry you over
Big mountains all around, and I
Guess we’ll float on light as a feather
But don’t worry they clearin’ the weather
We’ll swing back to the ground  	


Time is sweeter, sweeter with you, sweetest of all – oh oh oh oh oh
Fill my heart, fill it, fill up, 
Fill it, fill up with love  – oh oh oh oh oh
Just a feelin’ feel it, feel it
So feelable – oh oh oh oh oh
Time is sweeter, sweeter with you, sweetest of all	  


And I’m smilin’, can’t erase
From my face all the joy fall into place
Enough for you to take
And I’m rightin’, all the wrong
Got a cup overflowin’ it’s so full
And if the earth would shake 
Well got no chance to break – I got you 
Da da da da da da da da dum dum I got you
Da da da da da da da da dum dum I got you
Da da da da da da da da dum dum I got youu
Da da da da da da da da da dum I got you I got you

I Got You

Co-written with Blake Gannon.  Vocals Rachel Koster & Blake Gannon.

Little heart of mine, resting in my chest
Show me what it’s like to be my best
Spin me on carousels, along to the stars
Although we go round and round
We’ll still go far

Little stars they shine, the words you say to me
The pretty ones that sing and whisper melodies
Give me the fancy free, and give me a heart
So I can remedy the hurt of dark

And I will soar through the colours, every magic night
And I will drink in the view
From a Ferris wheel height 
& we’ll go up up up
& we’ll go down down down

In a carnival
In a carnival
In a carnival
That money cannot buy
                          
Little part of time, I lay to rest
Give me strength now, to face the test
Rolling at targets, to win back a heart
One chance, two and three
But won’t give up  

Won’t rest
Go slow
Hold tight
Let go 

We-’ll go up up up
& we’ll go down down down

Song B4 Tea

This song reached the Triple J unearthed charts in 2011.

The Mess

‘Creativity can be a force for good in the world. ’  

Composing has been Aussie songwriter Rachel Koster’s strong point for long over a decade with Australian acts and industry moguls valuing and utilising her skills.  Collaborations have included; Moodie (Australian Idol), Stuart Fraser (Noiseworks), Gary Pinto (CDB), Stephen Cummings, Nashville’s Karin Papperelli, Jordie Lane, members of Paul Kelly’s Professor Ratbaggy, award winning blues artist Lil'Fi, among others.  She has written and recorded in many genres including EDM, jazz, pop, musicals, acoustic, as well as jingle writing, however writing for other acts is her passion.  A number of Aussie artists and bands have used or considered Rachel’s material, including top acts such as Vanessa Amorosi.   

This artist’s solo debut, an independent pop single ‘December’, was followed by her highly acclaimed jazz album ‘Deciduous’, produced by ARIA award winning engineer, Robin Mai (John Butler Trio) and producer Chris Dickie (Wet Wet Wet/The Eurythmics).  She subsequently reached #21 on the JJJ Unearthed charts with a quirky single called ‘The Mess’, and in 2017 a dreamy pop acoustic duet ‘Carnival’ with newcomer Blake Gannon hit the airwaves.  

‘Your purpose is not something you make up, but what you are made up of’ is a truth that Koster has come to value as a personal and professional dictum.  ‘Delivering life in the form of songs is pretty much my ‘why’.  I love when a song has something to say…it’s one of the most beautiful elements of music, a great vehicle.  I must admit I am a sucker for strong melody and a catchy or meaningful lyric, I think those elements are always essential.’

She is constantly honing her skills, moving with the current market, and at present writing via commission for other acts and collaborative projects, as well as new solo EDM pop tracks and acoustic singles soon to be released.
