#212 of 366: Are You Awake?, Lauren Mayberry

Let’s slow things down a little. Always nice to take a little pause.

The wonderfully talented Lauren Mayberry, lead singer of the band Chvrches, now has some solo stuff out there on the streaming services and I cannot recommend her beautiful Scottish voice more. I’ve been lucky enough to see them live a couple times and boy do they put on a show.

“Are you awake?, I’ve been thinkin’ through some things, been countin’ their babies and their diamond wedding rings, are you awake?, I feel sadness in my skin, it happens sometimes now, are you awake?, I don’t remember when we last spoke, I probably overshared or made some tasteless joke, are you awake?, I miss the streetlights and the smoke, it happens sometimes now”

Beautifully performed.

Be good, do good.
