Elle & The Pocket Belles - Midnight Dancer (Audio) 2024

One of the stand-out acts on Freshly Squeezed, ELLE & THE POCKET BELLES released increasingly acclaimed singles and videos across the year. Now the full 10 track album drops: https://idol-io.ffm.to/whatsagirltodo showcasing the diversity and strength of songwriting, musicianship and production.

Now available on Limited Edition Clear Red Vinyl! Get yours here: https://freshlysqueezedmusic.bandcamp...

This is not just a singles band but offers real jazz sophistication on songs like OLD FASHIONED and a moving theatrical flourish on DON'T YOU WORRY. But on songs like WHAT'S A GIRL TO DO... the group really show off the many years spent on the vintage club scene refining their sound and style into the perfect distillation of classic retro style in a thoroughly modern way.

LYRICS:

Can't get no)
(Can't get no)

Deep deprivation
Wild hallucinations
I shut my eyes and all I hear is you
It's frustration every night
I can't win, give up the fight
My mind is spinning around
Sweet dreams are nowhere to be found

I can't think
My mind is lazy
Oh, the things you do to me
And I can't see
My eyes are hazy
Oh, the things you do to me

I can't get no sleep
So I might as well go out
I can't get no peace
So I might as well be loud
I can't get no sleep
I'm searching for an answer
Embrace (embrace) the midnight
Midnight dancer

No rest for the wicked
No night can be predicted
I shut my eyes and all I hear is you
No moonlight meditation
Just sleep elimination
My mind is spinning around
Sweets dreams are nowhere to be found

I can't think
My mind is lazy
Oh, the things you do to me
And I can't see
My eyes are hazy
Oh, the things you do to me

I can't get no sleep
So I might as well go out
I can't get no peace
So I might as well be loud
I can't get no sleep
I'm searching for an answer
Embrace (embrace) the midnight
Midnight dancer

The midnight midnight dancer
The midnight midnight dancer

The midnight midnight dancer
The midnight midnight dancer

Words by Hilary Shaw & Philippa Herrick
