I don’t ever wanna leave here,
No one ever does.
This is where we grew up,
where we fell in love.
And if we’re forced out
by fire or by flood,
where could we go?
I do not know.
Smoke from Cascades
big storm on the sea.
Sure feels like someday
we’ll all be refugees.
It ain’t where you’re from
it’s what you do
when someone needs some help
just getting through.
Shelter me and I will shelter you
through this storm. It’s the best that we can do.
Shelter me, and I will shelter you.
We’re gonna make it through.
That could be you
on the border line
with your daughter
saying “please don’t cry.
Go with the man now.
I will follow just behind.”
That could be us
in the caravan.
All we’ve got
on our backs
and in our hands.
And the walls you build
will only keep you in
when the trouble comes for you.
Shelter me and I will shelter you
through this storm. It’s the best that we can do.
Shelter me, and I will shelter you.
We’re gonna make it through.
We’re gonna make it through.
We’re gonna make it.
Lost track of these guys for a couple years, then saw the Tiny Desk concert come up in my feed. I've had the album on loop on Spotify since Friday.
This song in particular has been stuck in my head all afternoon. quiksilv26
God I'm so glad there's organisations like NPR Tiny Desk, Audiotree, and chief among them all KEXP, to carry the torch of live studio sessions like the John Peel / BBC radio sessions of yesteryear. Hell, KEXP's sessions have themselves been going for a couple odd decades already, so good on them for continually showcasing fresh and upcoming talent.
I ***REALLY*** wish more full sessions would be commercially released, but if that's left to the bands themselves, then that's more than fair enough Xtra Happy
Charming indie pop debut from Seattle's Flying Fish Cove pairs vivid tones with rainbow-hued lyrical expressions of love and loss. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 22, 2019
Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell
