  • Streaming + Download

    Includes unlimited streaming via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

    The 'Sore Heads And Happy Hearts' EP was released in November 1986.
    (Raving Pop Blast! Records RPBGF1)

    Recorded very cheaply, it was a very Lo-Fi affair.

    The record sold out quickly and was repressed in January 1987, mainly due to airplay via John Peel and Janice Long on BBC Radio.

    It was the sound of a band learning how to play.

    Rehearsal Tapes Included as bonus tracks!

HEAVEN IS BLUE (Jarrett / Kent) Looking out the window Waiting for something to happen You want to cut the rope But the scissors are broken You want to break free Want to run with the masses This flaming desire Is burning hotter than matches And what would you do if you found out that heaven is blue? You're watching people run around with nothing to do You said "Don't wanna be like that, if that isn't too cruel" You want a heaven on earth And that's just the start And we've got sore heads and happy hearts And what would you do if you found out that heaven is blue? Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba (Copyright Control 1986)

IT ALWAYS RAINS ON SUNDAY (Jarrett / Kent) I'll meet you if you want me to But it always rains on Sundays We can walk along the empty streets Because it always rains on Sundays And I don't mind If the sun never shines And it never does anyway.... You tell me that there must be more But what more could I say? And when I turned around... You had walked away And I don't care If life is never fair... And it never is fair anyway.... Ba Da Da, Ba Ba Ba Da Da Da Da... I'll meet you if you want me to But it always rains on Sundays We can walk along the empty streets 'Cause it always rains on Sundays (Copyright Control. 1986)
3.
MY FEET KEEP SLIPPING (Jarrett / Kent) Painting myself different colours Blue or green for the mood I'm in Watching you jumping fences Don't you ever try jumping higher? You make things so easy that you can't fall Flat on your face Keep your back to the wall I'm watching people lie to each other It's so stupid it makes my skin crawl My feet keep slipping off the ground Forsaking all I own Feel menaced For dancing on my own. Embarrassed I've never had no one You see, I'm on my own But I don't care because I'm having fun And is your life really so good And are you really so cool And does the one you love really love you Or is it just An illusion. You think you're living Well I know You're dead. (Copyright Control. 1986)
