Falling Awake - Gary Jules

Sell My Soul

There are times, when I’d rather be a tree
Oh not worried, not worried bout a thing 
Holding tight to the dirt underneath
Spending my life exploring every shade of green

There are things, things I wish I was
So many things, Im running from

I’d sell my soul
To discover things unknown
Set fire to all thats cold
Watch the world unfold
But the truth is that I’m terrified
There’s nobody on the other side
There has never been a reason for this life

There are days, when I’d rather be a bird
I could do what I want completely undeterred 
Singing songs of the things I overheard 
Spend my life up in the sky above the earth

There are things, things I wish I was
So many things, Im running from

I’d sell my soul
To discover things unknown
Set fire to all thats cold
Watch the world unfold
But the truth is that I’m terrified
There’s nobody on the other side
There has never been a reason for this life

It all seems so foolish 
To pretend I can do this 
Take my fear and subdue it
In a world of make believe 
Oh it all seems so foolish
If all we are is what we see 
Is there nothing more to this
Or is it all, just make believe  

I’d sell my soul
To discover things unknown
Set fire to all thats cold
Watch the world unfold
But the truth is that I’m terrified
There’s nobody on the other side
There has never been a reason for this life

Sell My Soul

Lyrics:

I wanna go out tonight,
I wanna say things I wish I didn’t
‘Cause if I’m in tonight
I’ll only think things I wish I didn’t
The way you look at me goes right through me
You make me feel like nothing, nothing before

So I wouldn’t save you if you were
the last man on earth,
And if you were drowning
I wouldn’t get my clothes wet
‘Cause you are less to me than I am to myself
‘Cause you are less to me than I am to myself, am to myself, yeah

Let’s go out tonight, 
Let’s say things we wish we didn’t
‘Cause if we’re in tonight we’ll only think things we wish we didn’t
The way you look at me goes right through me
You make me feel like nothing, nothing at all

So I wouldn’t save you if you were
the last man on earth,
And if you were drowning
I wouldn’t get my clothes wet
‘Cause you are less to me than I am to myself
‘Cause you are less to me than I am to myself, am to myself, yeah
Am to myself, yeah,
Am to myself, yeah

So I wouldn’t save you if you were
the last man on earth,
And if you were drowning
I wouldn’t get my clothes wet
‘Cause you are less to me than I am to myself
‘Cause you are less to me than I am to myself, am to myself, yeah

Last Man on Earth

Adam Barnes - 'One Day We'll Be Fine'

Over the past few years, Oxford born singer/songwriter Adam Barnes has truly embodied the twenty-first century definition of a troubadour. In a bid to share his stirring songs of heartache with the world, the 23 year old singer has taken his music to the world, touring throughout Europe, across the USA and beyond, taking in many a sofa and floor along the way, and consistently wowing audiences en route.

The release of his debut album 'The Land, the Sea & Everything Lost Beneath' last summer - a stunning and subtle collection of English-bred Americana - saw the world suddenly come to Adam, increasing his fan-base and extending his travels to further reaches of the globe. With an ever-expanding listenership, Adam's musical ambitions have in turn grown, as can be heard on his new 5-track EP 'One Day We'll Be Fine', released on Sept 27th via his own newly founded imprint Wild Native Records.

Spectacularly produced by Sam Winfield (Amber Run, Pixel Fix), the EP opens with 'Darling', a real highlight not just on the EP but of Barnes' entire catalogue. Fragile and raw to start, this 4 minute wonder builds to an anthemic climax, littered with irresistible melodic hooks and smartly phrased lyrics throughout. Lyrically, the song examines the passing of time, the start of endings, and the natural human regret we can all feel about these things. Adam Barnes: "I guess 'Darling' is a song about the fear of everything ending...and about not telling the people you love what you feel before it's too late...". Honest and pure, 'Darling' is perhaps Adam Barnes' finest musical moment to date.

Lead single 'I Can't Love You Anymore' is another standout, four minutes of raw, chest-beating indie-folk - perfectly combining Barnes' pure, honeyed voice with clattering electric rhythms, Bon Iver-esque guitar lines, joyful harmonies, and a lyric brimming with honesty and integrity; it manages to be both intimate and seemingly capable of filling a stadium all at once. 

Lyrically inspired by the divorce of his parents in his late teens, writing the song was a cathartic experience for Barnes: "This is a song about my parents...towards the end of my late teens they split and it’s never really been something I’ve talked or written about before...but I had to, I know it's something so many people my age have lived through. 'I Can't Love You Anymore' is such a straight up sentence, but in that situation I guess it needs to be quite blunt."

Adam Barnes began his singer-song writing career in 2010 with early support slots for the likes of William Fitzsimmons and Slow Club in his hometown of Oxford. He has since released one EP ('Blisters') and one full-length album ('The Land, the Sea & Everything Lost Beneath"), both to critical acclaim throughout Europe, whilst his live performances have become renowned for their intimate intensity.
