lyrics
Here you are, you’re coming round the corner
And you’re near, not far, I see you growing taller
But I’ve got news for you and you’re not going to like it
Here you are, you’re hiding in the shadows
And you creep, you slide, bombard me with your arrows
But you can’t get me now as I’ve learned how to trick you
Try and confuse me but you won’t get your way
Batter and bruise me but I won’t let you stay
Here you come, your voice is getting louder
And you shift, you change, you harness all your power
But you can’t get me now as I’ve worked out your MO
There you go, I feel you getting bolder
As your presence grows, the air is getting colder
But I’ve got news for you and you’re not going to like it
(All the fighting in the streets tonight
All the shouting and the doubting and the voices in my head tonight)
Try and confuse me but you won’t wear me down
Batter and bruise me, I’ll chase you out of town
I can’t see you but you’re there, I can feel you under my skin
Try to find my weakest points but I’m fortified from within
Try and confuse me but you won’t get your way
Batter and bruise me but I won’t let you stay
I can’t see you but you’re there, I can feel you under my skin
Try to find my weakest points but I’m fortified from within
It’s been hard to work it out, but I’ve found a way to push through
But at last the time has come and I’m finally rid of you

Shoegaze ist die Kunst des Dröhnens, doch „Everything Is Alive“ setzt diese Elemente nur sparsam ein. Statt Hall- und Zerr-Sounds aufzutürmen, schäumt die Musik in feinen Bläschen über.

The Covers on this set are reason enough to purchase this collection.
Yet the original tracks are even better than those.
Heavenly ethereal female vocals underpin
One of the most underrated shoegaze bands of all time.
A true crime that this band does not get the recognition they so richly deserve.....
Slowdive & Lush fans; Spotlight Kid releases are essential listening...... Agent K
Melodic alt-pop in the vein of Soccer Mommy is driven by winding guitar lines and augmented with dreamy shoegaze elements. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 14, 2021
