LYRICS | SOUTH RiVER NORTH LONDON GiRL Rise like the sun On your wings you bring joy to everyone Lies on the wind If it’s big, well, the flames will reach the sky Did I ever tell you, hunny How much I love your deconstructed qualities? Where is my head? Where is my self? Where is my body? Ride on the waves Take a swim, then go back to bed again Lie on the beach Where it is legal to procrastinate Did I ever tell you, hunny How much I love your deconstructed qualities? Where is my head? where is my self? where is my buddy? Did I ever tell you, hunny How much I do and how much I will? Did I ever tell you, hunny How much I love and how much I care? Did I ever tell you, hunny How much I love your deconstructed qualities? Did I ever tell you, hunny How much I would like to procrastinate with you forever?

LYRICS | FEEL LiKE A RiVER With the time I’d like to see Thinking maybe there is something wrong with me With the time I’d like to see Thinking maybe there is something wrong with me Like the roaring forties are fixing the game And the kid-in dream Stranded in a murky night And the waves are black The waves are high And the horizon’s closed Cannot see outside And the vision lies Thousand miles And I feel like a river – ah-ah I feel like a river – ah-ah I feel like a river – ah-ah I feel like a river – ah-ah-oh With the time I’d like to see Thinking maybe there is something wrong with me With the time I’d like to see Thinking maybe there is something wrong with me Like the roaring forties are filling the breach And it’s pretty strange I can see the stars And though they’re small They’re in our sight But to see a place On our planet earth I need to cross Thousand miles And I feel like a river – ah-ah I feel like a river – ah-ah I feel like a river – ah-ah I feel like a river – ah-ah-oh With the time I’d like to see Thinking maybe there is something wrong With me All well, wide awake Light up the sea-side It's gonna storm and you're in All well, wide awake Light up the sea-side, standing on the bridge I... It's gonna turn a new wind All well, wide awake Light up the sea-side It's gonna storm and you win All well, wide awake Light up the sea-side, standing on the bridge, I, Warning from the inside, rolling like (I'm in) the woom... And I feel like a river I feel like a river I feel like a river I feel like a river And I feel like a river – ah-ah I feel like a river – ah-ah I feel like a river – ah-ah I feel like a river – ah-ah-oh With the time I’d like to see Thinking maybe there is something wrong with me With the time I’d like to see Thinking maybe there is something wrong

And don’t you think it would be nice to dance ‘till it knocks us over? And don’t you think it could be fun to run Naked in the sand, Put everything away No mess and order No mess and order Every time you're coming my way I'm feeling so g-r-e-a-t Every time you're coming my way I'm feeling so great I'm feeling so great Every time you're coming my way I'm feeling so great I'm feeling so great

Or, would you like to see my shadow wonder by? Would you like to give it a try? Oh, would you like to know the reason why? Because I think of you Every minute in the day And I think of you And I cannot let that away And it’s Pretty Claire It turns pretty everywhere So now the sun is out That is the sign So, kiss me now Would you like to give it a try? Caught in a landslide Where I don’t want to lose you as a friend But at the same time I want to mean so much more And for the first time in my life I’m ready to combine and win music and love And would you like to know the reason why? Because I think of you Every minute in the day And I think of you And I cannot let that away And it’s Pretty Claire It turns pretty everywhere So now the truth is out There is no time So kiss me now Would you like to give it a try?

How far can I go? And with my hands My bare own hands I try again and fail again I rise again Try to understand I ask myself How high can I get? How high can I get? Lord, it’s like a windy ride You do your best You face the rest The wind decides And with my hands My bare own hands I try again and fail again I rise again Try to understand I ask myself How far can I go? How far can I go? And with my hands My bare own hands I try again and fail again I rise again Try to understand I ask myself How high can I get? How high can I get?

LYRICS | GiRLFRiEND REQUiRES MARKET RESEARCH Sometimes it’s the way they laugh Sometimes they don’t shut their mouth Sometimes it’s the sound of their voice And who they hate that I happen to love Sometimes it’s their awful taste Sometimes my mouth just don’t taste the same Sometimes they just have to be right When it’s amazing how wrong they are And I feel like a wheel Nothing to conceal (It's) Dense as a stone No morning calls Girlfriend requires market research Girlfriend requires market pre-search ah-ah And girlfriend requires a market research ah-ah Sometimes it’s the way they dress Sometimes they just show their ugly face Sometimes it’d their favorite food Sometimes it’s just how bad they cook Sometimes it’s the way they drive Sometimes they just drive me mad Sometimes everything looks OK Then looking down the toes just drive me away And I feel like a wheel Nothing to conceal (It's) Dense as a stone No morning calls Girlfriend requires market research Girlfriend requires market pre-search ah-ah Girlfriend requires market research ah-ah And I feel like a wheel Nothing to conceal (It's) Dense as a stone No morning calls Girlfriend requires market research Girlfriend requires market pre-search ah-ah Girlfriend requires market research

about

THIS ALBUM COMES WITH 9 BONUS TRACKS (SEE DETAILS BELOW).

===

From the struggles of moving to a new home in London, and crappy jobs to afford staying in London, came the best thing of all.

Acoustic and cloudy with short bursts of piano and strings, this album was written over a period of 6 months of autumn and winter (and a lot of rain).

It was then recorded very quickly on a short vacation back home with very little time to do more than one or two takes for each song.

This is also where the main plot line of the time living in London changed, where getting a record contract was no longer the most important thing, where a certain girl came along and redefined everything...

[Or like how singer/poet, Micha Sheetrit, wrote in his song 'Shir Ma'asef':

And Now looking back
We'll count
A painful point
A turning point
A point of light
And You
A sweet moment
A point of love
You're more than a dream
A lot more than a dream]

released June 5, 2021
