Tabs and lyrics
blog // April 05th 2011 by Simon.
We've had many people asking us for tabs, chords or lyrics of our songs lately. We've therefore decided to start posting some of them on our website. We'll try to update this section as often as possible so feel free to request your favorite song!
04/03 Update: "Near the edge of something beautiful"
04/05 Update: "Lali"
EVERYTHING I SEE
Verse: F Dm Am C (x2) then Dm Dm Am Am
Chorus: Dm Am C C F Dm C C
At first I wasn't quite sure this would fit
but I've been seeing you in everything I see
Still, is this leading us to any stability?
Or do we try to hide what we won't see?
I didn't even count the years
it took to get there
Was it worth the wait?
At first I wasn't quite sure this would fit
but I've been seeing you in everything I see
I didn't even count the years
it took to get there
Was it worth the wait?
I'll come back when I mean it
Regrets for me now
remain far enough
I'll come back when I mean it
Regrets for me now
remain far enough
I'll come back when I mean it
Regrets for me now
remain far enough
I'll come back when I mean it
Regrets for me now
remain far enough
I'll come back when I mean it
Regrets for me now
remain far enough
I'll come back when I mean it
Regrets for me now
remain far enough

Chorus: Dm C Am F
NEAR THE EDGE OF SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL
Oh everything is so unclear, I don't know if I should see
Oh everything is so unclear, I don't know if I should see
You wish you were happy you can keep your fingers crossed
You wish you were happy you can keep your fingers crossed
But don't you dare telling me it never seemed wrong to me
I should have known, I should have known
I should have left you way before
And if I'd known, if I had known I wouldn't have loved you at all
Oh everything is so unclear, I don't know if I should see
Oh everything is so unclear, I don't know if I should see
You wish you were happy you can keep your fingers crossed
You wish you were happy you can keep your fingers crossed
But don't you dare telling me it never seemed wrong to me
I should have known, I should have known
I should have left you way before
And if I'd known, if I had known I wouldn't have loved you at all
SUNLIGHT
Verse: Bm Em

There's no place like homes
blog // December 02nd 2010 by Simon.
A little more than a year ago, we finished recording our album "There's no place like homes" at Le Studio de la Frette. We never took the time to upload the beautiful pictures taken by Aurélie. Now it's done!

Troy von Balthazar
blog // September 14th 2010 by Simon.
Our friend Troy von Balthazar just released his new album "How to live on nothing" on Third side records.
What better occasion for us to post our "My Diamond Brain" remix again? Here it is:
The original version is available on Troy's new album.
Troy will be playing some shows in october and november. On november 5th in Rouen, I will play a solo gig before Troy's show. And I'll be playing some new songs!
Take care,
Simon.

Je suis pas contre la tab de Near the Edge. Mais bien sur, si ça doit venir parasiter votre travail créatif en studio, je retire ma requete!
