I got 10,000 friends, they live on screen
I take them everywhere, and I tell them everything
Love is a simple game, we’ve forgotten how to play
The hands I used to hold are far too far away
Human, human, clap your hands together
To feel something, deep within
Huma, human, come on speak to me
Clap your lips together
Skin on skin
I enjoyed you, you enjoyed me too
But pleasure is flexible, then suddenly there is greed
Temptations calling me and fortune’s make believe
Don’t play with me providence
I make my destiny
If money is the root of all evil
Should it be illegal
We can never rewrite history
Human, human, clap your hands together
And feel something, deep within
Huma, human, come on speak to me
Clap your lips together
Skin on skin
We share everything, but touch nothing
We know everyone, but know no one
We buy anything, without choosing
We sell anything, except love
Human, human, clap your hands together
To feel something, from deep within
Human, human, come on speak to me
Clap your lips together
Skin on skin
Human, human,
come on and speak to me
Clap your lips together
Skin on skin
Human, human
Come on speak to me
Clap you lips together
Skin on skin

Manchester’s soulful chanteuse, Josephine, has created a self-reflective debut album which illustrates the many different
sides of a fascinating character. Vocally, her prowess recalls ‘the Queen of gospel’, Mahalia Jackson’s distinctive contralto, yet behind the powerful delivery is a husky undercurrent making every replaying seem like a personal performance....more
This is real sad guy music. So vulnerable and raw, but sounds sweet. 3 of these songs really HIT me and are SO beautiful (and I like the album as a whole). Sandy Naorin

Ben Wheeler uses an East German synthesizer and a Soviet flanger to create hauntingly weird yet bright and open electronic soundscapes. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 10, 2022
I normally only listen to electronic music, but after listening to this album months ago I found it kept calling out to me. Now after purchasing it I can see why. I am totally addicted to its beauty and harmony. Thank you so much for the wax version, as it is the only form of music I collect. kaosskid
