CASHMERE

This is a cover version of one of my all time favorite songs written by the criminally underrated Karl Wallinger for his band World Party. My pal Stephen Becker and I produced and performed this at Company Studios in Glendale Ca under the name "Equine Audio Research" (E.A.R.).  

The Pedal steel was performed by the super talented Kevin Milner and this recording was mastered by KRAMER at Noise Miami 

This song was written by Karl Wallinger and below is the relevant writer publisher info:

Lyrics:

I'm not as innocent as I used to be...and I probably care too much what you think of me...and it takes too much wine to put my mind at ease...I know...I know. 

But what if the whole wide world was looking up to me? Hanging on every word of my philosophy...could I spend all my life trying to set them free? I don't know...don't know. 

So call out your message your words, maybe you'll get to be heard, maybe get what you deserve. 
Maybe this life ain't enough, maybe we're down on our luck, I know we'll never give up! 

All I know is we gotta stand up... 
Up up, up up... Up up, up up... Up up, up up... 

They say a blissful life is a fantasy. And we see far more strife than we see empathy. But we know there's more to life than just you and me...we know, yea we know. 

Drawing your line in the dirt, fighting your way through the hurt, maybe you'll prove what you're worth... 
Maybe this life ain't enough, maybe I'm calling your bluff, maybe we all just need love... 

All I know is we gotta stand up...
Up up, up up... Up up, up up... Up up, up up... 

Oooh… Ahhh… 
Searching the skies up above, looking for answers because, maybe we all just need love…

All I know is we gotta stand up...
Up up, up up... Up up, up up... Up up, up up...

Ships Have Sailed is the brainchild of vocalist/guitarist Will Carpenter. The band materialized after a hesitant decision to individually focus on new music. The process was initially daunting but the risk proved to be invigorating and refreshing. The music became uplifting and buoyant. The lyrics revealed a thoughtful and conscientious perspective. And the sound evolved into sincere indie rock with an unabashed pop structure. After sharing it with fellow musicians, Carpenter recruited a lineup that now permanently includes drummer Art Andranikyan.

Carpenter describes the band's moniker not as a pessimistic reference to the renowned idiom "that ship has sailed," but instead a fresh, positive perspective on the unexpected outcomes of unforeseen circumstances. It's an adage that can be applied to his own life of growing up in poverty in rural Vermont and being kicked out of his home as a teenager. And it’s from these challenging experiences that Carpenter often reflects on to draw introspective inspiration.

With Carpenter acting as main producer in his home studio, Ships Have Sailed has recorded and released a diverse collection of albums, EPs, and singles that consistently evoke an unrestrained cathartic desire to be heard and enjoyed. Either through crescendoing ballads or indie rock alacrity, their music always captures a uniform sense of sanguine sensibility. And by combining an ardent work ethic with an impressive range, the band has maintained a well-earned buzz that has led to international tours, impressive industry showcases, and awards honoring their independence. They’ve had several songs spend weeks in the top five on listener-voted KROQ Locals Only (“Escape,” “Stay,” and “Take My Money" all reached number one). And most recently, the band received significant exposure after their cinematic single “Broken Hearts” was placed in an episode of CBS’s legal drama Bull and their subsequent single "Silence" was featured in the season 19 finale of Grey's Anatomy (ABC).
