about

This track was home recorded during the 1st quarantine of 2020 in Madrid while I was missing my family and friends in the UK. We weren't even allowed to go out for exercise for two months, so it was a good time to work on some songs and try to level up on my production skills. Many more are still to come, so if you like it, be sure to follow me so that you'll be the first to know when future releases appear.
Take care and be sure to contact those who live far away. They'll be super pumped to hear from you!

lyrics

The gas light's higher than I can reach
An interstellar fire from underneath
But I can feel the love, I can feel the love
I can feel the love... from afar
I wonder if they're watching
What do they think of us
Are we just slaves dancing on a rock
Hypnotized by romantic music
'Coz I can feel the love, I can feel the love
I can feel the love...
And don't forget that you're free to tear the page right out
Or you could just smash your telephone
Remember where I left you
Depressed on a witches curse
And I thought as I stepped on the plane
Could've ended worse
'Coz I can feel the love, I can feel the love
I can feel the love, I can feel the love, I can feel the love
I can feel the love... from afar
From afar, feel it from afar
When the world crashed it made new tracks in the desert sand
When the world crashed it made new tracks in the desert sand
When the world crashed it made new tracks in the desert sand
(And now I'm waiting for the rain)
When the world crashed it made new tracks in the desert sand

about

Simon Hughes Madrid, Spain

I write songs like others might paint, keep a sketchbook or even get a new tattoo. It just takes whatever form it takes, when the song is whirling around my head at that moment. It's hard to put moments of your life into genre, right? My songs are about love, life, protest and frustration, honesty and sometimes just outright improvisation.

Thanks for your ears! ... more
