about

I met a girl in a bar in Sydney. She seemed artificially excitable and in time, it made sense and so did she...

lyrics

The first your name you mentioned,
the second was your past,
the mansion and the parties,
gifts in Gucci bags,
A painting was in progress,
to catch your wistful smile,
the names came falling from you,
with melancholy eyes...

Waiting for the weekend,
Waiting for a chance,
Fighting time and pretence,
This party can't last...

Daily adulation,
circles streaked with stars,
hopping club and bathroom,
drinks in every bar,
Your joy you shared so easy,
your charm enchanted all,
your vibrant youth arousing
the writing on the wall...

Waiting for the weekend...

Your chatter it was constant,
between the toilet breaks,
powdered nose and vodka,
flushing out heartache,
The blonde now long forgotten,
the ears are boxed or binned,
once the world was watching,
but now you've fallen in...

Waiting for the weekend,
waiting for a chance,
fighting time and pretense,
this party can't,
fight time, pretense,
this party can't last...

Tested on Animal (EEP) is the second release from this Dublin songwriter. Its an intimate mix of memory and fantasy. Lullabys and nightmares sit side by side. Experience and hallucination battle for belief. An honest record, that could either introduce the day or beckon the night. Sedate melodies and quirky riffs bolster the stories told and it retains a character that is difficult to pin down. ... more
