I thought I'd start a new thread for Get Up given that we're all going to be waxing lyrical about it soon.

It sounds so good, it's a brilliant tune, and sounds so fresh, not like the stale version of the chorus that's been in my head for months. It has a load more groove than I remember, it's got great rhythm. :D

Can't wait another few hours? Go here :)

Can't wait to hear it but the download might work in just over 5 hours. I'm waiting 'til the download works. Excited to hear it. :) Wooooo!

I wouldn't be able to get it until tomorrow evening, so it's perfect!

Both new songs are amazing, Sarah is definitely top 5 b-side already, it's a bit like Life and Soul... only more pianoy and even more personal. Echoey and atmospheric and beautiful.

Here's some guesses at lyrics, change anything you don't like:

Get Up

I wish someone would write me a song
Or tell me a story
So I don't need to worry
I need a little love and a hand to hold
Somebody old to watch over me
I need a little time so I don't have to hurry

Oh, you say it all(?)

You gotta get up
You gotta get up
You gotta get up
But I don't wanna get up
You gotta get up
You gotta get up
You gotta wake up
To the situation

I wish someone would answer the phone
Stop leaving me hanging on
I'm feeling like a little ship out on the ocean
I need a little love and a hand to hold
Somewhere to hold the frustration
I need a little cause for celebration

Oh, you say it all

You gotta get up
You gotta get up
You gotta get up
I don't wanna get up
You gotta get up
You gotta get up
You gotta wake up
To the situation

Growing up
Checking notes(?)
So you know
Just just which way to go

You gotta get up
You gotta get up
You gotta get up
You gotta get up...
You've just gotta
You've just gotta
You've gotta
You've just gotta
You've gotta gotta

Oh, you say it all

You gotta get up
You gotta get up
You gotta get up
I don't wanna get up
You gotta get up
You gotta get up



Sarah

La la la la la
la la la la
la la la la

Where are you going tonight?
Where do you dance when they turn off the light?
And your eyes as they roll in your head(?)
Spin you around as you lie on the bed
But I'm not keeping time
Upon the creeping vine, vine

He was the one made you fall
But he couldn't help you at all, not at all
So he packed up and jumped from the wall
Pushing his luck past the ghosts in the hall
Still I'm not keeping time
Upon the creeping vine, I

But I'm not keeping time
Upon the creeping vine, vine

Oh Sarah
You've done it all to yourself
With your bottle of gin on the shelf
And your love letters sent to yourself
Oh Sarah
You used to say you were lucky
Now your luck's running off down the stairs
To the arms of another

At the back of her mind, there's a photograph
Of a child all alone in the dark
She can tell by the bell ringing back at her
She's lost

Where are you going tonight?
Dressed like a ragdoll with holes in your tights
And your eyes as they roll in your head
Spin you around as you fall out the bed

But I'm not keeping tight
Upon the creeping vine, I

Oh Sarah
You've done it all to yourself
With your bottle of gin on the shelf
And your love letters sent to yourself
Oh Sarah
You used to say you were lucky
Now your luck's running off down the stairs
And you realise nobody cares
Take the bottle of gin from the shelf
And pour me another
Da da da da da
La la la la...
Yeah

Sarah sounds really beautiful. Can't wait. :)

As people can see. Get Up is a little repetitive. That's my only real problem with it. Its very catchy though. Look forward to hearing the studio version. :)

Sarah is a fantastic new song. I can't say anymore, totally awesome.

Get Up is a bit repetitive but still really catchy... and now it's time for me to go to sleep. :-)

nice dreams

downloaded, listened and reviewed!!!

J Smith: still likes me, but I don't know, I heard it a little different from the first version in the club tour gigs..

Get up: I love it, easy listening, sticky, completely radiable but I love it anyways, I think this will be one of my favourites...

Sarah: melodic, sweet, sad, get into the heart... wonderful song...
