Ben Harper - Crazy Love (Sweet Relief III: Pennies From Heaven)

Hellogoodbye - (Everything Is) Debatable

Recorded in Arizona with Calexico's Joey Burns producing, Amos Lee's fourth studio album, 2011's Mission Bell, finds the singer/songwriter in a thoughtful mood and once again wrapping his soulful folk numbers in country, blues, and soft rock. A ruminative, lazy summer day of an album, Mission Bell is not dissimilar to Lee's last effort, 2008's Last Days at the Lodge, but lacks the more contemporary R&B tracks that made Last Days a bit of a departure from Lee's more granola leanings. Here listeners get the introspective leadoff track "El Camino" and the airy Steve Winwood-sounding ballad "Violin." Similarly engaging is the jaunty mid-album anthem "Flower," which is equal parts the Commodores' "Easy" and Hall & Oates' "She's Gone." It's a brilliant, joyously melodic number with the only downside being that it only works to remind you how melodically dire the rest of the album is. Which isn't to say Mission Bell is bad. On the contrary, there is a lot to admire here and maybe that's the main problem. Lee is a talented songwriter with a distinctive pop voice who is becoming recognized as an heir to the American singer/songwriter throne -- a notion given weight by the addition of several well-known guest artists here, including roots rocker Lucinda Williams and country legend Willie Nelson. That said, he often favors rambling, low-key country numbers that get you to quietly consider the bittersweet nature of our existence rather than lose yourself in the song. You come off a track like "Flower" and keep waiting for another one to grab you in the same "instant classic" kind of way. If Mission Bell rings true, it's in the lyrics with Lee's knack for stories and personal revelations keeping you listening, and not always the melodic content.

From the debut album 'A Dream Outside'
Pre-order on www.gengahr.com

Hype Machine - http://goo.gl/8LlhYW

Slated for a June 15th release through Transgressive Records, North London’s Gengahr are pleased to announce their debut album A Dream Outside with new single ‘Heroine’ - their most immediate track to date and another glimpse at what their debut is set to offer.

Picking up where 2014 left off Gengahr marked out their intentions for 2015 with an opening slot on Alt-J’s European tour and the release of the gloriously spellbinding ‘She’s A Witch’, which received acclaim from the likes of The Sunday Times, Independent, DIY and NME whilst being added to playlists on 6Music (C-list), Radio 1 (INMWT), Amazing Radio (A-list) and XFM (evening list).

Now on the dawn of their debut album - recorded and co-produced with James Bragg at Middle Farm Studios - the band are set to follow ‘She’s A Witch’ with new single ‘Heroine’; saccharine pop hooks that knit together the band’s woozier tendencies, marking the track out as one of the tauter moments on A Dream Outside. Led by its bounding bassline, it’s an earworm from the off, and as it descends into the murkier depths of guitarist John Victor’s solo thrashing things take a turn for the gigantic.

Heroine

being broke in america is unnatural

LYRICS : 

I been livin off delusion 
Cuz I heard its healthy 
Pockets growing
Labels talkin 
Hoes been far from stealthy 
I'm still slightly flyin under radars 
I practice like its playoffs 
I lay brick a day I'm out here tryna build the Great Wall of yours truly 
I need more groupies 
And less people tryna get a cut 
Put your fuckin hands back in your pockets 
man you said enough 
Conversation over 
Lately I've been celebrating 
Hardly ever sober 
True squad generals
No room for soldiers 
I gotta classic debut right here chillin in my holster 
My shoulders got the weight of my world on them 
And her world 
And his world
And your world on them
I need a Venezuelan 
Or my afghani chick from dc 
To come fuck with my campaign
And treat me presidential 
Leave the politics at home 
It's strictly lewinski 
Then it's back to tryna get a buzz like 50
Cup full of whiskey just to level out 
I only keep kings around me Sacramento style 
You needa elevate your life 
You've been livin lateral 
Get you a passion 
Put some dreams in a catapult 
Being broke in America is unnatural 
I'm just givin you facts 
You start givin ideas 
They start givin you cash 
You start poppin a little 
They start givin you daps 
You sing a couple fucking hooks and they start givin you ass
But I'm not mad at the slightest 
The public praises you for what you practice in private 
You've been cordially invited 
To my showin out party 
Reminds me of LA when we had cases of Bacardi 
Jars of marijuana 
Rooftop was the lobby
Too young for that money 
So the girls got wobbly 
They want the whole crew like motley 
That was right before 21 
I been fuckin the world 
I'm bout to make the money come 
Fuck what yall got 
Yall squares time is up because I watched you let the ball drop 
One too many times 
I been hidin out in Brooklyn 
I got too comfortable
I had to rearrange the cushions 
Get in touch with my chakras 
Pop Pop just died 
I fell in love with some vodka 
Fell out with ex 
Then back in love with some vodka 
My half brother jimmy 
Showed up at the wake 
Hadn't seen him since 97 
What the fuck do I say 
He's got some baby mamma issues
shits been ugly 
She's tryna take him down 
Raisin money with gofundme 
Damn 
On top of that heroine took my best friend 
He hits me up to blow L's 
I'm just tryna get m's 
And hoes comin out the woodworks 
They see ya boy building
So they tryna get this woodwork 
If you tan with an accent
Ummm it could work

“Cut Me Loose”

It feels like a million miles
Even when you’re by my side
I don’t need you every night
So don’t make me your reason why

What do you want from me?
Punchin’ the clock
Is there another way
Than givin’ it up?
What do you want from me?
I’m not gonna stop
‘Cuz all I hear you say
“It’s never enough”

So cut me loose

I said it a million times
That I don’t need a Mr. Right
It can’t be so hard to try
So don’t make me your alibi   

Beat me up, clean me up; Never be who you want
Wonder why you and I, been holdin’ on so long

What do you want from me?
Punchin’ the clock
Is there another way
Then givin’ it up?
What do you want from me?
I’m not gonna stop
‘Cuz all I hear you say
“It’s never enough”

So cut me loose

Up, down, all around
Time to burn this to the ground

LYRICS

Sat back with the window down
Eighty an hour and the radio loud
The same songs with the same old rhymes
Tell me to shake it off and swing from the lights

But I can’t help but drive away from all the mess you made
You sent this hurricane now it won’t go away
And I promised I’d be there but you don’t make it easy
Darling please believe me 

Cos loving you, loving you is too hard
All I do, all I do’s not enough 
Loving you, loving you
I cannot be loving you, loving you
Loving you, loving you leaves me hurt
All I do, all I do is get burnt
Loving you, loving you
I cannot be loving you, loving you

Count stacks of the routine lies 
Funny how easy you could see my blindside
Still the same songs with the same old beats
Sure I could stay but there’s a place I’d rather be 

But I can’t help but drive away from all the mess you made
You sent this hurricane now it won’t go away
And I promised I’d be there but you don’t make it easy
Darling please believe me 

Cos loving you, loving you is too hard
All I do, all I do’s not enough 
Loving you, loving you
I cannot be loving you, loving you
Loving you, loving you leaves me hurt
All I do, all I do is get burnt
Loving you, loving you
I cannot be loving you, loving you

See I remember all the times you made me covered in crazy
I can’t forgot about the way you played me
Like I was never gonna change your world
It ended long ago so please just let me go
It ended long ago so please just let me go
