Mountain Tip 02:35
The mountain tip Red heart tender Golden yellow glow What looks good isolation All alone always I never did like talking anyway I never did like talking anyway Enslaved your mental state Your eyes they're chains Your gaze remains I never did like talking anyway I never did like talking anyway Clouds roll in I’m rolling Just a hint im a glimmer Oh oh I am vaporous air I never did like talking Anyway, you've always so much to say The mountain tip Red heart tender

Honey babe 03:15
Oh sugar my honey babe I don't want to leave you But I got to get out You've been taking your sweet time Oh oh I don't feel right I never could live day to day Can't stand these white walls These clean dinner plates All that I have is not mine Oh sugar my buttercup I don't want to leave you But I got to give it up All that we have is not fine Baby baby baby don't be mine Oh sugar my honey babe

Outnumbered 05:05
Life here's getting pretty weird City slows shattered Dogs play fight in the sand And I sit and I sit I'm not sad, just a little outnumbered And I sit and I sit just a little encumbered Cover cover all I've known of your face Heart in hand at the traffic lights Wondering if you're going to be alright And I sit and I sit I'm not sad, just a little outnumbered I saw your baby I thank the heavens it isn't my time They all wonder if I'm right I'm doing just fine with my life Ain't no hills here I swore I wouldn’t bite He is the apple I don’t see well, I don't see well in this light And I sit and I sit I'm not sad, just a little outnumbered And I sit and I sit Just a little encumbered Black sand fills me in Naked you're a bold one Dogs will always play And I sit and I sit

Body, Now 03:20
You're in my body, now You're the sun on my skin I feel your waters I feel your waters, creepin in It's been a long winter, just me Over wild lands, lonely valleys City streets they say, follow me But you're in my body The child greets the horse Body changes course Hush little baby Hush little baby You’re You’re my body
5.
Oh you've survived One hundred percent of your birthdays So far If you're standing here you've survived Wasn't one I didn't cry And i've been dumped more than twice I turned ten My horse she died Watched her fall under foot Wrote in a comic book My primary school memoir This will be the best year yet I can feel it This will be the best year yet He said no, I'll leave it Strikes midnight the prince has departed I wish I was back in Melbourne Never felt so loved there see me do you see me This will be the best year yet I can feel it This will be the best year yet Said I was like a cartoon Irish quiet black eyes of knowing You saved me those years I never knew Of lives like this, told me I'm an artist That's ok you're a late starter too This will be the best year yet I can feel it This will be the best year yet This will be the best year yet I can feel it This will be the best year yet Oh year yet Oh you've survived 100% of your birthdays, so far This will be the best year yet This will be the best year yet 100% of your birthdays, so far This will be the best year yet I can feel it

about

Greta O'Leary Wellington, New Zealand

Spook-folk Sweetheart Greta O’Leary is a songwriter and musician whose pervasive yet spacious sound cuts through the thickest of skins.

Poignant, heartbreaking, and occasionally absurd, O’Leary seizes us with her dynamic voice, bending the folk-genre to another plane. Think Angel Olsen meets Vashti Bunyan.

“Acoustic, with a free-thinking aesthetic and a refusal to conform”- Muzicnet
