Lyrics

A day of the most peculiar kind, 
I never did mind- I'm too far down the line. 
All my sorrow on the gate 
powering out this bad state. 

Gone back to the county line 
caught in a Peugeot 209 
His motivation is not yet called upon, 
he's a victim of his own crime. 

I came to the turning down the drive 
but never arrived, turned straight around. 
Cold feet, cold on the ground, 
footprints could never be found. 

Gone back to the county line 
caught in a Peugeot 209 
His motivation is not yet called upon, 
he's a victim of his own crime.

Peugeot 209

to lie on the waves and float on the ocean: the simplest of motions

Lyrics

Even through the dark, dark, dark days
there was never a doubt how this would end,
there was never an 'if', just a 'when'.
But now I've moved on some way
look back over all that time again-
is it a waste that time I've spent?
But it's already over, it's already gone.

Are we just slaves to a system we create?
Are we just slaves to a system?
'I guess I thought that my whole, whole, whole life
Look back and I wonder if it's just me-
am I the one who isn't free?'
But it's already over, it's already gone.

Are we just slaves to a system we create?
Are we just slaves to a system?
I guess we just move back, back, back and forth
between the extremities of thought:
are we the captors or the caught?
But it's already over, it's already gone.
It's already over, it's already gone.

What's On Your Mind

BIOGRAPHY, by NME’s Andrew Trendell
“I lived in my van for two and a half years to pay for the making of my first record,” casually laughs singer-songwriter Michael Baker. “I moved into the van after a typical period of heartache. I had nowhere to go, but it was pretty good actually!” 

From this, you can gather a lot about the Anglo-French troubadour. Mainly, he takes nothing for granted and lives for his music.  

Spending his childhood near Brighton (where he went to the same school as Rag N’ Bone Man), Michael got his first guitar aged eight after seeing Oasis live and needing to learn ‘Wonderwall’. In his teens, the songs soon started to flow. It wasn’t long before the purity of his voice, the direct rawness of his writing and the sheer scope of his sound found him regular gigs and a devoted fanbase – one that only grew bigger and more in love with the release of his magnificent debut album Dust & Bone. 

A soaring collection of heart-wrenching indie-folk and cinematic sounds, Dust & Bone was recorded with Massive Attack collaborator Dan Brown, and was a staggering first showcase of Baker’s ambition and soulful style. “I’m really proud of the songwriting on that record,” he admits. “I was in such a bad place in my life when I made it, but it got such a great response from the people who heard it.”

Early sessions for Salt started when Baker hit the studio with Dan Brown and Oliver Baldwin, who had recently finished making Aldous Harding’s acclaimed album Party with PJ Harvey collaborator John Parish. While promising Michael says ‘’It felt like I needed more time to experiment than we had scheduled in.” So Baker headed back to record and produce the album with long-time friend Ed Martin. 

After discovering that his childhood home would be empty for a few weeks while his parents were in the process of moving away. He went in and stripped everything away, begged and borrowed all the equipment he needed, crammed the band in, drank a lot of wine, got a little stoned and naturally just flowed through the album – playing all day and all night. The recordings were so impressive, that Baldwin agreed to mix the record at Real World Studios and gave the songs a whole new dimension (as well as inviting Jack White’s pedal steel player Maggie Björklund to play on the album too). 
“I absolutely love artists like Cat Stevens and Bon Iver,” says Baker. Salt is a record that maps Baker’s journey through darkness and vulnerability to something a lot more hopeful. 
Among the key tracks that show Baker’s road to recovery, ‘Baby Books’ was inspired by being in close proximity to someone taking their own life – and totally changing the way he saw the world. Single ‘They Look Just Like They Know’ also deals with how “the mind can be a deadly place” and “feeling trapped in the prison of your own vision”. He’s looking for the sunrise on the horizon, too. Baker’s personal favourite ‘Claire’ celebrates the “the beauty of space in a relationship” and the escapist ecstasy of ‘One Good Damn’ has won over scores of new fans with its feel-good magnetism. 

Salt is a towering accomplishment that will win hearts with its adept handling of love, loss and hope, and there’s more to come. For now though, you’re about to get to know the real Michael Baker. “I feel like I have too much of a personal relationship with anyone who says they like my music,” concludes Baker. “I’ve been getting letters and messages from people saying that my songs have got them through a very hard time, and I don’t know how to reply to them other than as if I’d known them my whole life. That’s the way that I would do it. I hope that my music gives them as much as it’s given me.”

📝 Lyrics:

The mornings are dim
The evenings are long
Since you’ve been around
Every flower I once knew has been
Hollowed through and hung out on the line
And I sit and I think
And I hope and I wait
And I watch you take over while
The air disappears
And the wind’s a persistent beast
That rattles every corner of the mind

And when it’s time I’ll know
To stay or follow
This winter could be
Spring tomorrow

The days have been grey
The nights have been cold
Since you’ve been away
Every memory and photograph
Muddied up the river far behind
And I laugh and I cry
And I cry and I laugh
And I wash away tears
And I look at the clouds
And the trees sweetly whisper
That somewhere in the moment you’re around

And when it’s time I’ll know
To take or borrow
The love you left me
For tomorrow
Or give it away and
Move through the sorrow

And when it’s time I’ll know
To take or borrow
The love you left me
For tomorrow
Or give it away and
Move through the sorrow

Days, Nights

I was so gentle 
as a boy
drove me mental
all the noise:
“thicken up your skin and harden up those bones
it’s time for you to be large and loud and cold”

hold up high your boulder
you are getting older
now’s the time for you to feel
the ice inside your shoulders

stiffen up now, soldier!
you must be a bolder 
version of you 
wherever you enter, don’t you let them catch ya
bein tender


all around me
they wear they kindness like 
an ill-fitting cardigan
now this again 
another nice guy
but he makes your blood curdle
inside his mind there’s the same damn voice
from the car commercial:

hold up high your boulder
you are getting older
now’s the time for you to feel
the ice inside your shoulders

stiffen up now, soldier!
you must be a bolder 
version of you 
wherever you enter, don’t you let them catch ya
bein tender

📝 Lyrics:

So many roads to follow
So many rivers to seek
So many mountains and bays 
All them stars on display
Come runaway with me 

So many trails to step upon 
So many peaks to reach 
So many colours and coves
Tiny islands to roam
Come runaway with me 

Cause i've been thinking 
This town ain't what it used to be 
And i've been dreaming 
Of campfires under alpine tress
And sunsets over lake louise 
Come runaway with me 

Too much time stuck in the city 
Too many days lots to a screen 
Subways and trains
Tall buildings and cranes
Gone drive a man insane

For i need a week out in the woodland 
With a lantern and kerosene
Pines cones and sparks
September dark 
Come runaway with me 

Cause i've been thinking 
This town ain't what it used to be 
And i've been dreaming 
Of campfires under alpine tress
And sunsets over lake louise 

And i've been thinking
This town ain't where we both should be 
And iv'e been wandering
If you'll wander round this world with me

And i've been thinking 
This town ain't what it used to be
And i've been dreaming 
Of campfires under alpine trees
And Sunset over lake louise 
And of you wandering this world with me 
Come runaway with me 

So many roads to follow
So many river to seek
So many mountains and bays
All them stars on display
Come runaway with me

📝 Lyrics:

are you running from or running to
all those gray clouds ahead of you 
that never seem to fade
by now you thought you'd have it made
living the life with a nine to five, two kids and a gorgeous wife

maxing out your 401k 
saving up for a rainy day 
 
is this where you thought you'd be at thirty?
top ramen and a college degree 
and nothing to show for it but a torn up diploma
living with your parents in Tacoma
is this where you thought you'd be at thirty?

well you waited in line to claim your prize
it's a mountain of debt and you realize
maybe It's not all it's cracked up to be
the age old pursuit of the American dream 

are you saving all your hard earned quarters
for a machine that's clearly out of order 
  
maxing out your 401k
saving up for a rainy day
it's always raining anyway

Max Morin - Thirty (with lyrics)

📝 Lyrics:

Yellow springs
The morning sings her song
Holding heaven hand-in-hand
‘til break of dawn

You ruined me too easily
The night we met
Two fools in love, I think
Are a worthwhile bet

Look outside your window
Blurry picture in the pane
Imagine you are younger
Dreaming of the life
You want to make
I know it seems like 
Everything’s different
But nothing’s changed

Time won’t cheat you
While you’re young
But play a little longer son

Wake up one day
Now the rest
Are simply memories
At best
Memories at best

Look outside your window
Blurry picture in the pane
Imagine you are younger
Dreaming of the life
You want to make
I know it seems like 
Everything’s different
But nothing’s changed

Everything’s different
But nothing’s changed
