"The Fool" is an unashamed pop song at 114 BPM that delves into themes of love and redemption. 

Lyrically 'The Fool' is inspired by 'What A Fool Believes' by Michael McDonald and Kenny Loggins, and takes the woman's perspective but with a contemporary twist.

With powerful vocals and emotive storytelling, it follows someone who recognises past mistakes and seeks to make amends in matters of the heart. 

This track offers a fresh take on lost love and second chances. "The Fool" is a must-listen for a modern perspective on love's trials and tribulations on the dance floor.

'YOUNG AT HEART' is the latest song from The Mercury Meter.

Yet another unashamed pop song at 114 BPM that delves into themes of jilted love and redemption. 

Brilliant lyrics from Paul McKendrick. 

With powerful vocals from Christina Rotondo, "Young at Heart" is like one of those moments when you're desperately clinging to the past, refusing to grow up. But over time we can let go of bad love and move on. 

LYRICS:

One day, I’ll meet you face-to-face again, 
And we’ll say hi, and we’ll shake hands, 
The handshake that says we’re still friends, 
And then you’ll ask me how I am, 
And I’ll say… 

I’m fine, but I still love you, 
I’m fine, but I ache inside, 
He says…
It’s time you learn to forget it,
It’s time you learn to grow up!

But no! 
If growing up is not loving you, 
I’ll stay young inside, with a young hearts pride, 
And so, 
If growing up is not having you, 
I’ll stay young at heart, young at heart. 

And I can’t say when, the memory faded, 
You just disappeared from view (You just disappeared from view)
And I felt strong again, and fell in love with, 
Someone who fell in love with me too.

Then one day I met you face to face again, (face to face)
And in your eyes, something had changed (you’d changed),
I sensed your cold heart had warmed inside, 
So, I asked you, how are things, 
And He said…

I’m fine, but I still love you, 
I’m fine, but I ache inside, 
And I said…
It’s time you learn to forget it,
It’s time you grew up, just like I did!

But no! 
If growing up is not loving you, (If growing up is not loving you)
I’ll stay young inside, with a young hearts pride, 
And so, 
If growing up is not having you, (If growing up is not having you)
I’ll stay young at heart, young at heart. 

Don’t store it up the way you do,
Don’t waste your time with a young hearts pride (Because)
The more you do, the more is bad for you, 
And you’ll forget what the real love is like.YOUNG AT HEART

YOUNG AT HEART

'The Mercury Meter' are like those few books you stumble upon that aren't trying to impress anyone; they're just there, raw and unfiltered, with a voice that cuts through all the noise. They're out to share something real, something that'll grip your soul, even if it means walking a path less traveled, far away from the glitz and glamour that so many seem to crave.   
It's like finding a piece of yourself in a world that's constantly trying to mold you into something you're not.   
And that, my friend, is a rare and beautiful thing.
