…is Small by Lamb, off their album What Sound. A melancholy but beautiful synthpop gem with my all-time favourite chord progression, I – V – flat VII – IV. I may have to learn it on accordion.
And if any of you Big Content guys are reading this: would you like to know how I discovered the song, which led me to find out more about the band and purchase the album? Internet radio — namely one of my fave stations, Evil Dildo — which you idiots are trying to kill in your war on innovation.
Small
by Lamb
from their album “What Sound”
Sometimes I climb high above the city
To see all the lights shining they’re so pretty
And think of the millions of lives going on
At this present moment
And those come and gone
And it makes me float free
To feel how small my life must be
And it makes me float free
To feel how small my life must be
Whenever I can I go down to the sea
And wonder at how many miles there must be
And all of the people on all of its shores
At this present moment
And those gone before
And it makes me float free
To feel how small my life must be
And it makes me float free
To feel how small my life must be
Sometimes I’m out in a bustling street
Dazzled by all of the faces I see
It strikes me we get lost so soon after birth
But one smile can turn over heaven and earth
And it makes me float free
To feel how small my life must be
And it makes me float free
To feel how small my life must be
And it makes me float free
To feel how small my life must be
And it makes me float free
To feel how small my life must be
