Lay down your secrets
I wanna get to know you
In the air that you're breathing
I wanna get to know you
On the street signs and sun arise
I wanna get to know you
Or I'll forget the feeling
Before it's here and over, over
I'll be the left side if you'll be the right
I'll let the eyes fall into the night
Hold out the ocean over your hands
Hope that the answer goes with the ask
I'll be the left side if you'll be the right
I'll let it bloom and then let it die
Hold out the ocean over your hands
Waiting for something to play out
And your love, your pieces
I wanna get to know you
And I realize in the cold light on the day time
That I'm going under
I'll be the left side if you'll be the right
I'll let the eyes fall into the night
Hold out the ocean over your hands
Hope that the answer goes with the ask
I'll be the left side if you'll be the right
I'll let it bloom and then let it die
Hold out the ocean over your hands
Waiting for something to play out
I wanna get to know you
In the air that you're breathing
I wanna get to know you
On the street signs and sun arise
I wanna get to know you
Or I'll forget the feeling
Before it's here and over, over
I'll be the left side if you'll be the right
I'll let the eyes fall into the night
Hold out the ocean over your hands
Hope that the answer goes with the ask
I'll be the left side if you'll be the right
I'll let it bloom and then let it die
Hold out the ocean over your hands
Waiting for something to play out
And your love, your pieces
I wanna get to know you
And I realize in the cold light on the day time
That I'm going under
I'll be the left side if you'll be the right
I'll let the eyes fall into the night
Hold out the ocean over your hands
Hope that the answer goes with the ask
I'll be the left side if you'll be the right
I'll let it bloom and then let it die
Hold out the ocean over your hands
Waiting for something to play out

Every time I come back to this song I have to bump my rating higher. I know vocals for this kind of electronic track is love it or hate it but I think they pull it off really well.

Kidding....But personally I prefer Zola Blood over Radiohead by a mile.
It's all better than horns, bongos and La Cucaratcsha!

This makes up for countless horns, bongos and noise!
This band is so good. There's some video of a live gig out there - excellent. I'd love to see them. I do have to say, however, that the latest album is a bit more contemplative. I hope they come back to this earlier style.

Excellent! Another band that I never heard of prior to RP. Thanx RP!

Thanks RP, I am amazed that such songs are here, I always thought I'd only hear them on my own spotify playlists.
thanks for making me discover this group

Actual lyrics:
Lay down your sequence
I wanna get to know you
In the air that you're breathing
I wanna get to know you
Under street signs at sunrise
I wanna get to know you
Or I'll forget the feeling
Before it's even over, over
I'll be the left side if you'll be the right
I'll let the hours fall into the night
Hold out the ocean over your hands
Hope that the answer goes with the ask
I'll be the left side if you'll be the right
I'll let it bloom and then let it die
Hold out the ocean over your hands
Waiting for something to play out
In all of your pieces
I wanna get to know you
And I realize in the cold light of the day time
That I'm going under
I'll be the left side if you'll be the right
I'll let the hours fall into the night
Hold out the ocean over your hands
Hope that the answer goes with the ask
I'll be the left side if you'll be the right
I'll let it bloom and then let it die
Hold out the ocean over your hands

So, when a song goes from a 7 then eventually to a 10 for me, I do research, and the lyrics that are posted just didn't match up with what I was hearing.

Played Out.
Insert something new, or just different.

Liking this more as I listen to it. Moved from 7 to 8 and now moving to 9.
These guys sound like âKentââfrom Sweden which Bill spins on the turntables now and then.
Reminds me a lot of Radiohead.

HI, I'm a french fan and I listen to you every hours each day.
I've just a question for you :
Is it possible to ear sometimes some Very big group as YES, Genesis, the Who, Procol Harum, van der graaf generator, blue oyster cult, and others of this périod.
Thanks a lot and keep on going....We love the job you do.

So funny. You've got to be a fan of 1980's track and field to get that reference, but I think 'Zola Budd' every time I see this band name too!

Not a bad song however, it's one thing to be influenced by Radiohead and another thing to sound like them.

I do love Gilkysonâs cover. But, to have a great cover, you need to start with a great song. Maybe not a perfect song, but a great song. Awful songs usually donât get covered, but if they do, the covers are lousy too; I canât think of an exception. When I hear a great cover, especially when I have a preference for the cover, I also recognize that appreciating the cover simultaneously appreciates the song writer that made that cover possible.

No. Worse than Gotye.

Plays well with rain on an early fall morning...
Very, Very Gold!
Love the aesthetic
Alt-J + Radiohead + Boy and Bear + ocean references = sweet
Sounds a lot like Local Natives. But nobody knows that band, so why bother
I can hear the Radiohead and Alt-J similarities in this, but it also reminds me of music older than that - electronic stuff like OMD and the like. Every band probably has numerous influences.
i would have bet good money (or bad, for that matter) that i was listening to ALT-J...thus the reason i'm not a betting person
Great track. Interesting to read the Godley and Creme comparisons in the comments for the previous track (Supergrass - "Sad Girl"). I see what you did there Mr G. This is as close to Godley and Creme as you'll get without listening to the original. To my ears, of course.
edit: I wouldn't mind betting they listen to a lot of the latest Radiohead, too.

brought a smile to my face and some kinetic swivel to my hips : ) that's good
This was a great sounding track at LOUD volumes...really good workout for my mid-bass and subs. 8 from the sonically surprised in Seattle!
Long Live RP!!
*Edit* I also like the line "I'll be the left side if you'll be the right" as it reminds me of the saying "I'll be 6 if you'll be 9."
I'll be the first to comment since I submitted this - thank you RP for playing. This entire album is a fantastic!
this is good!
