For nothing more than the sake of torture 
I put a chameleon on a mirror 
and as I watched it 
as it lost its mind 
it reminded me of me 

But hey thats OK 
But hey thats OK 

And as I sail myself into darkness 
Away from the castles 
Built on land 
I know the shore that behind me erodes 
Will slowly just leave me with grains of sand 

But hey thats OK 
But hey thats OK 
But hey thats OK 
But hey thats OK 

If this floor was a chessboard 
and I was the king 
would you be my queen? 
I read by my bedside while time moved the pieces 
and I never wanted to win anyway 

But hey thats OK 
But hey thats OK 
But hey thats OK 
But hey thats OK

Hey That's OK

In our seventh Reversal of the Muse podcast, Laura is joined by fellow musician and friend Marika Hackman. Marika’s beautiful debut album, ‘We Slept At Last’, was released in 2014. She has since joined sold out tours with alt-J, The 1975 and of course, Laura.

In this episode, Laura and Marika recall their early experiences of being on tour, and how they adapted to the dynamic of male-dominated tour buses. Like Laura, Marika would be intrigued to record in a studio run by women, as it’d be interesting to see whether an artist would feel less pressure to perform and be more inclined to share ideas. Laura and Marika also discuss the contradiction of many female artists today, by the way they’re sexualised by the media but also presented as strong and independent.

For our ninth Reversal Of The Muse episode, Laura is joined by fantastic London-based singer-songwriter and producer Shura. After releasing singles ‘2Shy’, ‘Touch’ and ‘What’s It Gonna Be?’ to a glowing reception, July 2016 brought Shura’s debut album ‘Nothing’s Real’. For the second part of their conversation, Laura and Shura are joined by previous Reversal Of The Muse guest and friend, Marika Hackman.

Laura recorded this podcast just after ’Nothing’s Real’ was released, and Shura explains she made a conscious effort to construct her album cohesively, with the aspiration to create records in the way she consumes them: listening in their entirety from start to finish. However, Laura and Shura share the same difficulty when they’re in the midst of making records and travelling, as they find themselves detached from listening to other music which inspires them. As Marika joins the conversation, the trio discuss how Marika’s early presentation in the media emphasises a problem many female musicians encounter: journalists can focus on everything but the great music they produce.

LYRICS

Holding it close this time
Tell me of her, I'm fine
You'll never know what you do to me

All that we have won't grow
Falling is hard, I know
You make it so easy, believe me

And it's on my mind and I'd like to talk things through
And you're on my mind though I know I'll never do

Holding my tongue, it's real
Tell me the truth, I'll heal
Taking it slow before you go

And it's on my mind and I'd like to talk things through
And you're on my mind though I know I'll never do
And it's on my mind and I'd like to talk things through
And you're on my mind though I know I'll never do

You're all that I want and more
I'd say but I know your sort
I wish I could be someone you need
You need

And it's on my mind and I'd like to talk things through
And you're on my mind though I know I'll never do
And it's on my mind and I'd like to talk things through
And you're on my mind though I know I'll never do for you
Do for you

LYRICS
I see your face 
In their golden embrace
But reality is bleak 
So I dare not speak
I just give you space.

My heart is burning 
But you’re not earning 
My trust, my trust , my trust.
Will the world keep turning 
If we keep spurning 
This love , this love , this love?

Her face is bliss 
Beneath his kiss
But mine twists and sours 
Thinking this love of ours
Can never exist.

My heart is burning 
But you’re not earning 
My trust, my trust , my trust.
Will the world keep turning 
If we keep spurning 
This love , this love , this love?

Their cosmos is gold
But ours is cold
So counting the cost 
Our love must stay lost
Never to have nor to hold.

My heart is burning 
But you’re not earning 
My trust, my trust , my trust.
Will the world keep turning 
If we keep spurning 
This love , this love , this love?

My heart is burning 
But you’re not earning 
My trust, my trust , my trust.
Will the world keep turning 
If we keep spurning 
This love , this love , this love
This love , this love , this love.
