great flow to this... love the way the groove sets off the beat of the words... really nicely done!

perfect song for a sunny day in lockdown ✨

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 18 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/batch366

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.

Lyrics:

Well I can fall asleep making plans 
I’ve got angels take them for granted
I’ve got strangers shaking my hand 
Now that I’ve seen the lay of the land  

And I was touring in vans
Since I was a younger man 
I was shaking the worlds hands 
I was bright and full of the plans 

But this life can steal your soul 
My wife and kid they give me hope
a young nipper just fresh off the dole
I was broke and unpredictable 

Driving one way through the city spin the wheel like marty whelan
got my angel face on I’m sacrificing all the demons 
flying straight through the glass ceiling willy wonka seasons 
october year getting blasted even me oul lad start believing  
and before i get too sentimental, crayons markers, pens and pencils, 
i could use them all to vent about the days I used to head to 
leisureplex in blanchardstown, 
or xtra vision mark it down, 
Soapbar hash lets spark it now, 
its dark out now 

But I got a question from or ya 
I did my best I’m okay 
I got a lesson for ya 
I am not stressing for ya  
this is not the best environment  
to raise a child the politicians hide the violence
but i’ll do me best I’m okay  

Called to tell you I was lonely
Called you from Arizona
Called you from California 
but now I’m on the way home 
In Dublin streets I’m alone 
And I’ve been up and down every road 
I got questions only god knows     

I’ve been through love and loss 
and hate and remorse so much I’m exhausted, 
drip tears like a faucet, 
I drink beers til I’m nautious, 
I switch gears til I’m lawless. 
I live in fear I’m far from flawless, 
mental scars I be haunted, 

But I got a question for ya 
I did my best I’m okay 
I got a lesson for ya 
I am not stressing for ya  
this is not the best environment 
to raise me child the politicians hide the violence 
but i’ll do me best I’m okay  

Called to tell you I was lonely
Called you from Arizona
Called you from California 
but now I’m on my way home now 
In Dublin streets I’m alone 
And I’ve been up and down every road 
I got questions only god knows

didn't want to forget about this so here I am posting it.

at the beginning there was a reason I made this track, as life progressed I have been given a new meaning to this song!

*******************************************

*LYRICS IN DESCRIPTION*

Hook
Baby gimme Dusse
Then we saying touche
I just want a new place
I don’t want no new bae

Baby it’s a new day
Wonder what you say
Haven’t seen ya in a few days
looking like a new face

(Chorus)
Baby we can ride , for the night
Baby won’t you give me life, for the fight
Baby gotta wipe them eyes, for the sight
Baby we gon’ make it right, cuz it’s right

Right,right,right,right,right

Verse : 

What’s with all this
Running away from all shit
Problem after problem but running won’t solve it

Minds are like rubiks cubes at the start it’s all mess
But once you can clean it up then what is the word stress
I must go confess 

I’ve been under too much
Feeling I been on clutch
Working like got no lunch
Smoking on some more Dutch

Free roamin' in the city and acting when in Rome then 
I gotta do what I gotta do not to belong in
No society so why they eyeing me

Cuz they wanna see the things cuz they nose all up in it
Always plugged up
but without you it’s it ain’t correct
now lemme come correct

Hook
Baby gimme Dusse
Then we saying touche
I just want a new place
I don’t want no new bae

Baby it’s a new day
Wonder what you say
Haven’t seen ya in a few days
looking like a new face

(Chorus)
Baby we can ride , for the night
Baby won’t you give me life, for the fight
Baby gotta wipe them eyes, for the sight
Baby we gon’ make it right, cuz it’s right

Verse:

Angels East, Angels West, North and South, just do your best,
 to guard her and watch her while she rests

I’ll take that cradle to the grave
I’ll do anything as long as I have faith
i’m down to play
Cuz two can play that game

Never in a mad way

You don’t love em? Hardly
Why you say that cuz the ego's too high babe

Sometimes you just wish you didn’t say
Nothing
Now you left praying for loving
Praying for something
Pray that the day never coming
I stand ground never running

Bridge
it’s like ,only god knows, what we go through
only you and god knows, who the real you
So god bless the folk, guide em straight through
Come give them hope, you’d wish it for you

Hook
Baby gimme Dusse
Then we saying touche
I just want a new place
I don’t want no new bae

Baby it’s a new day
Wonder what you say
Haven’t seen ya in a few days
looking like a new face

(Chorus)
Baby we can ride , for the night
Baby won’t you give me life, for the fight
Baby gotta wipe them eyes, for the sight
Baby we gon’ make it right, cuz it’s right

HEART FOOD FOR HARD TIMES

Into The Room

In My Prime was written and produced in lockdown, and reflects the frustration that many of us feel in not doing all the things we’d planned to do with our free time. But it’s also about being a twenty-something seeing those around you do great things while you’re stuck doing the same old same old, struggling to move forward with all the ambitions and plans you hoped to achieve long before now.

In My Prime

You can never see the sun
You can never see the days
You can never find a way of letting go
That's another day to waste
As the sun begins to fade
I've gotta find a way to let this go from me

Like a wrecking ball
I'm gonna lose it all
Until there's nothing in sight
I need a wake-up call
Or I lose it all
Until I've nothing inside

Let's start over just save me
I know that lately I've kept you waiting
Know that I can't stop wishing that maybe 
I could be changing
It's driving me crazy

Well I'm surrounded by the darkness
Not a hope or glimpse of light
With little voices saying 'you should disappear'
But I pretend that I can't hear them
I will never let them win
I've gotta find something to change the way I live

Like a wrecking ball
I'm gonna lose it all
Until there's nothing in sight
I need a wake-up call
Or I lose it all
Until I've nothing inside

Let's start over just save me
I know that lately I've kept you waiting
Know that I can't stop wishing that maybe 
I could be changing
It's driving me crazy

It's driving me crazy
It's driving me crazy
It's driving me crazy
It's driving me crazy

Just Save Me
Just Save Me

Let's start over just save me
I know that lately I've kept you waiting
Know that I can't stop wishing that maybe 
I could be changing
It's driving me crazy

Let's start over just save me
I know that lately I've kept you waiting
Know that I can't stop wishing that maybe 
I could be changing
It's driving me crazy

It's driving me crazy (Just Save Me)
It's driving me crazy
It's driving me crazy (Just Save Me)
It's driving me crazy
It's driving me crazy (Just Save Me)
It's driving me crazy
It's driving me crazy (Just Save Me)
It's driving me crazy

It's driving me crazy
Crazy crazy crazy crazy

Episode 7: City Of Dutch Gold

Fresh On The Net is a music blog hosted by Tom Robinson and Team Freshnet, offering independent artists an open door and a level playing field for their music. Our inbox is open at http://freshonthenet.co.uk every Monday to Thursday morning - if you share a track with us there it will be heard by every member of our moderation team.

IMPORTANT: 
Only send ONE track, and make sure the dropbox says "OPEN".  Sorry, but tracks sent while the dropbox is closed - or shared drectly with this Soundcloud account - will not get heard.

Friendship, tragedy, emigration, drug use. Not just lyrical themes but all also catalysts on the path to Nealo becoming a Hip Hop artist. Having spent 10 years in the Dublin Hardcore Punk scene singing with the band Frustration, and after their split in 2015, vocalist Neal Keating found himself at a creative loss. “As Dublin changed and bandmates emigrated I found myself creatively stifled, I knew the words were always swirling around in there, I just needed a medium to get them out and hip hop has given me that”. The next 10 months, Nealo spent writing over 50 songs. His debut release, ‘October Year’ is a sample of 4 of the favourite and most cohesive of the last few months work. ‘October Year’ is both the beginning of an artists life, and the culmination of a years work with friend and producer Arbu.
