Description
This is a pack of four brand new songs that aim to explore beyond the boundaries of planet Earth. Each track takes listeners on an imaginative journey through the cosmos, offering a unique perspective on the mysteries of the universe.
Track 1 - You Know You Are a Star
"You Know You Are a Star" is a thought-provoking track that encourages listeners to shift their perspective when feeling stressed. The track opens with a soothing melody that draws listeners in. The lyrics prompt reflection on the vastness and cosmic nature of the universe, suggesting that amidst our worries and concerns, we are part of something greater.
Track 2 - Are You Going to the Boris Party?
"Are You Going to the Boris Party?" is a timely and satirical track that draws inspiration from recent political events. The majority of the song was written after Boris Johnson's apology to Parliament at Prime Minister's Questions (PMQs) in January 2022. The last verse, added after the Sue Gray report was published, adds an additional layer to the track, reflecting the evolving nature of the situation.
Are You Going to the Boris Party? [extract]
Yes, I'm bringing my own b00ze.
It is a lockdown garden party.
Never say you were there.
I've heard about those parties;
Will Boris be there?Cheese and wine means business.
You've been working very hard.
There was no party.
All guidance was followed.
Track 3 - Smiling Inside
"Smiling Inside" is a nostalgic and introspective track that draws upon the concept of the universe and our existence within it. The track features full-synth flavours reminiscent of the early 1990s. Dave Village's vocals evoke a sense of wonder and contemplation, as the lyrics delve into existential questions about our place in the vastness of the universe.
Track 4 - Space and Time
"Space and Time" is a mellow and introspective track that continues the EPs overarching theme of space and time. Midway through the track, a sprinkle of excessive physics-force chanting adds a unique and playful twist.
