Any artist is welcome to send us a track via freshonthenet.co.uk anytime between Monday lunchtime and Thursday morning (or when we receive 200 submissions, whichever is sooner) - and all our moderators, including Tom Robinson, will listen to every track. This is our full inbox from the week beginning Mon 25th May: from around 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/batch367

If a track you submitted does not appear in this list, it’s probably 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. We also don’t accept short previews or SoundCloud GO tracks that can only be heard as 30 second previews, and tracks made private after submission, which will be invisible to everyone. You will be able to resubmit the track in future. Tracks that have been previously submitted and tracks from banned artists will also be removed.

PAPER PLANES featuring Liel

track 1 from the album "B Sides, Alternates and Other Songs" ......... a collection of 10 songs written or recorded during the making of my "For the Stars" album in 2019 but didn't make the album.......releasing one song monthly thru October 2020!

"People Would Say" was just a couple words, an idea, when I finished up last years album so consider it an "other song" for purposes of this release! A conversation with a friend about finding music so late in my life led to this song. I should have finished it sooner, it's a personal favorite!

ALL OF MY TRACKS ARE FREE TO DOWNLOAD direct from this page or at this link: lenaloise.bandcamp.com/music ........... CD's are available in the USA for the cost of postage at this link: lenaloise.bandcamp.com/merch

B Sides, Alternates and Other Songs

People Would Say

Ebullience - the quality of lively or enthusiastic expression of thoughts or feelings

Ebullience

A chill pop song with influences from rock, folk, gospel, rnb and more. A song about unconditional love, faith and living life

Still

track 3 from the album "B Sides, Alternates and Other Songs" ......... a collection of 10 songs written or recorded during the making of my "For the Stars" album in 2019 but didn't make the album.......releasing one song monthly thru October 2020!

"I Was Small" is an "alternate" version of a song I released in 2018 (When I was Small). I felt this song needed to be be much more stripped down than the version I originally released and this was the result. It was much more a recording exercise than anything else so it never made last years album.

Lyrics:

I believe in magic, space magic
Put on your unicorn jacket
Covered in bat ships
The Saturn moon Enceladus - supposedly nice this time of year
It’s in the hiero-graphics
I’m coming in soft on top of a wave of cosmic madness
Let’s dance, Cassiopeia’s second chance
At the black hole dance
I can taste the fabric
Give Captain Planet a call
Real name Patrick he’s got his own rocket ship we’re gonna ride right through the purple

I believe in magic, love magic
Capital Gold Motown Classics
At the ugly pageant
Caterpillar turned into a bat, dramatically turned into a bat
Can you imagine? I sure can
Born out of a dying star’s final throw of epic passion
Take a chance
At the black hole dance
On a fragile circumstance
It’s a delicate balance
Intergalactic truth love-manic wreaking havoc in the most beautiful manner

Love magic
Space magic
I believe in magic
Oh I believe
Initiating fade out now
Dutiful fade out
Magical fade out

Space Magic

I'm digging a hole dirt in my shoes
In a world of shadows I've ran out of booze
I'm digging a hole digging a grave
Scratching out the soil with the crap they never gave

And the world will never see me ever again
Unless my bones are dug up in a thousand years
All the antiquarians will kneel and pray
As my skull grins back from ear to ear
Dead dead dead still digging

What are you doing my pretty one
Can you fill the hole when the digging's done?
Can't blame her running I understand
No one digs digging with a dying man

Nobody will remember my epitaph
Unless my bones are dug up in another age
All the antiquarians will kneel and laugh
As my skull grins back in a silly way
Dead dead dead still digging

I've relinquished my dreams I've laid them aside
The glamour and the horror the wind and the strife
Are you better off in Yemen with a will to survive
Or living at The Dorchester desperate to die?
Dead dead dead still digging
