Any artist is welcome to send us a track via freshonthenet.co.uk anytime between Monday lunchtime and Thursday morning (or when we receive 200 submissions, whichever is sooner) - and all our moderators, including Tom Robinson, will listen to every track. This is our full inbox from the week beginning Mon 11th May: from around midday on Friday you'll be able to hear our shortlist and pick your favourites on this week's Listening Post which will appear at freshonthenet.co.uk/batch365

If a track you submitted does not appear in this list, it’s probably because another of your tracks appeared in our Fresh Faves or on the BBC Music Introducing Mixtape during the last three months — we ask that artists featured on either wait three months before resubmitting to give others a chance. We also don’t accept short previews or SoundCloud Go tracks that can only be heard as 30 second previews, and tracks made private after submission, which will be invisible to everyone. You will be able to resubmit the track in future. Tracks that have been previously submitted and tracks from banned artists will also be removed.

ENTIRE INBOX: Batch 365

The single depicts the fragility of romantic love as Keener’s smoldering vocals float around a slowly pulsing, retro groove.  It’s off the album, I Do Not Have to Be Good, due out May 22.

I Do Not Have to Be Good

Do You Love Me Lately

If you’re free to leave, it's easy to stay
But it's not always simple to do
Show off your weaknesses, misunderstand
& be the worst version of you

A leaf from a tree in the autumn will fall
Like a feather, floats to the floor
Be a new one next year, we grow strong over here 
So hold on, you’ll be back for more 

It’s never the end of the world
It just stops for a minute while you unfurl 
It goes on without you, whatever you do
So, stand up for something, all the way through

Take a leaf from my story
Don’t disappear ‘til its time
I used to be sad, and then I forgot
I remember who’s on my side

They say that you’re larger than life
So, you live like maybe it’s true
But don’t take it from me, wait & you’ll see
Life is much larger than you

It’s never the end of the world
It just stops for a minute while you unfurl 
It goes on without you, whatever you do
So, stand up for something, all the way through

Never The End Of The World

My People

better if you never

track 3/10 from my sophomore album 'sunflower boy'
Tom Shawcroft 2020

Lyrics:

[Intro]
You know how I’ve been
You know that I’m just a mess
You know what you saw and
I’m just so low and depressed
You know what they say
How nothing ain't what it aint
We shouldn't go there
Life just caught me up, so don't you

[Verse 1]
Tell me what you feel
Tell me what you see
Tell me what you know
I don’t know your deal
I’m better alone
If you call, then I’ll fall
Cause you know just how to work yourself around me
Yeah

[Chorus]
Oh, you know it's better if you never call 
Oh, you know it’s better if you never 
Call me once, call me twice
Get that thought out of your mind
I need space, I need time
Just back off a little while
Oh, you know it's better if you never call me back

[Bridge]
You tried to call a million times
But you know that it’s
No good way to tell me that your fine
So don’t you

[Verse 2]
Tell me what you feel
Tell me what you see
Tell me what you know
I don’t know your deal
I’m better alone
If you call, then i’ll fall
Cause you know just everything about me
Yeah

[Chorus]
Oh, you know it's better if you never call
Oh, you know it's better if you never
But I tried, then I cried
Cause I took the wrong advice
When I lied, said I’m fine
With falling back to you every time
Oh, you know it's better if you never call me back

[Chorus 2]
But I tried, then I cried
Cause I took the wrong advice
When I lied, said I’m fine
With falling back to you every time
Oh, you know it's better if you never call me back
You know it’s better if you never call me back
Oo, you know it's better if you never

[Outro]
Call me once, call me twice
Get that thought out of your mind
I need space, I need time
Just back off a little while
Oh, you know it's better if you never call me back

better if you never
