So I got home late and thought I'd take a look at Ooberman. Quickly found this, one of their first singles, Shorley Wall:
What on earth is wrong with the world? Why do we elect old Etonians whose only mission in life is to make themselves richer and everyone else poorer? Why does Malaria still kill half a million people every year when its easily preventable? How can we have the intellect as a species to diagnose climate change and yet not have the will to do anything about it? And how is Shorley Wall cast aside while so much mediocrity is celebrated?
One of the ideas behind Lost Songs is the notion that there are real gems out there. Actually discovering one par excellence is a rather strange experience - it actually makes me as angry as it does delighted that I now have this new brilliant piece of music in my life.
Loved the song and the video. Why this group didn't make it is a mystery.
