It's been a decade since we started Oh Wonder. On September 1st 2014 we released our first song ‘Body Gold’, and made a commitment to write, record and release one song on the first of every month for a year. That crazy idea culminated in our self-titled album, which launched a beautiful ten years of making music and touring the world a few times over. We are so grateful to those 13 songs, but looking back we made them with one keyboard, one microphone and barely any idea what we were doing. Since then, we’ve sung those songs hundreds of times on stage, and now they somehow mean even more to us. We wondered… what would it be like to record them 10 years on? With access to real instruments and a studio? How would we play them now? How would we sing those lyrics now? Join us as we re-record and release one song a month. Hopefully it’ll sound like you’re listening to your favourite song, but with a brand new pair of headphones on. So we present to you… our first album, 10 years on.
Lyrics:
I've been depending on the overgrown
Too many lovers that I'll never know
Counting my losses as I let them go
Heavy the water as I sink below
Down, down, deep down
Down, deep down
Down, down, deep down
Oh, won't you be my livewire?
Make me feel like I'm set on fire
Your love will take me higher and higher
Oh, won't you be my livewire, my livewire?
I've been pretending all my shots are blown
Cover my heart up, never let it show
I'm shaking it off to find a higher low
So heavy the water, oh, so heavy the water falling
Down, down, deep down
Down, deep down
Down, down, deep down
Can you hear me falling
Down, down, deep down
Down, deep down
Down, down, deep down
Oh, won't you be my livewire?
Make me feel like I'm set on fire
Your love will take me higher and higher
Oh, won't you be my livewire, my livewire?
So hold me when I fall away from the lines
When I'm losing it all, when I'm wasting the light
Hold me when I put my heart in your hands
When I'm losing it all, when I'm wasting it
Oh, won't you be my livewire?
Make me feel like I'm set on fire
Your love will take me higher and higher
Oh, won't you be my livewire, my livewire?
Oh, won't you be my livewire?
Make me feel like I'm set on fire
Your love will take me higher and higher
Oh, won't you be my livewire, my livewire?
Won't you be my livewire?
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
My livewire, my livewire
My livewire, my livewire
