My Way Home 04:09
lyrics

MY WAY HOME I went far from home, far from behind I met the demon host, I met him blind Where the crow showed me light When my bow was ready and tight Come my way home I went to the sea, in the north country fair Through the holy wind, yeah, I took a dare Where the crow showed me light When my bow was ready and tight Come my way home

Banshee 03:25
lyrics

BANSHEE Listen darling you’ve tried To make me think I’m all alright But I don’t think you can You’re so dumb so blind Spent my days out of time Off my head from your mind Need to make it concrete Tell me that I won’t repeat You’ve been wasting my time Make me wish a goodbye Now the room seems to tight I’ll go outside where it’s bright Hey Man, love is not disease You better run now than standing on your knees You’ve been haunted by banshees And look what you’ve got Indeed you didn’t choose the ease How dare you choose For a man what to lose Have you ever thought To be trapped or caught Tend to get what I mean All I fell is obscene Need to make it concrete Tell me that I won’t repeat You’ve been wasting my time Make me wish a goodbye Now the room seems to tight I’ll go outside where it’s bright Hey Man, love is not disease You better run now than standing on your knees You’ve been haunted by banshees And look what you’ve got Indeed you didn’t choose the ease

The Time Has Come 03:29
lyrics

THE TIME HAS COME Sunny days might end with a bit of rain But that’s ok, we’ll find a shelter, find a lane Find a lane, unchained, free your pain It’s hard to tell someone what to do when the sky is grey Never give up, the sun will hit back anyway The time has come We better take the chance To make a new world, make a better place Without fences, rising from ashes Stuck in a storm need to tame those whims of time The wind might blow in the wrong way But it could change at the slightest signs Look at the signs, there’re all around you It’s just a state of mind And we all pass through everyday Never give up, the sun will hit back anyway The time has come We better take the chance To make a new world, make a better place Without fences, rising from ashes

Beating A Dead Horse 03:55
lyrics

BEATING A DEAD HORSE I wish, I had someone to blame Burn the evil, dust into flame I try harder, forget my pain Straight forward may lead to fame Is it better, is it worst? I’m just beating a dead horse Is it better, is it worth? I’m just beating... Beating a dead horse Journey alone, with all my friends To be bankable, main stream in hand Smile and keep going buddy It looks like simple, but it ain’t easy Is it better, is it worst? I’m just beating a dead horse Is it better, is it worth? I’m just beating... Beating a dead horse Back on the stage, I’ve learned the rules Now I know how, to play the fool I give them what they want, Fake Clown Who lost himself to reach the moon Is it better, is it worst? I’m just beating a dead horse Is it better, is it worth? I’m just beating... Beating a dead horse

Sweet Song 03:18
lyrics

SWEET SONG We don’t know each other Though I can understand We both are my brother Strong castles made of sand I can tell all your fears cause All your fears are mine No need to hide to tease There’s no heroes, just men If you think it’s for you, then you’re wrong It’s just for me, I wrote this song We wrote this sweet, Sweet song Side by side on the road The one we think we choose Puppets in hands of God Nothing but youth to lose Like Freddy use to say Sure “The Show Must Go On” Before we hear the gong Upon our house of stone If you think it’s for you, then you’re wrong It’s just for me, I wrote this song We wrote this sweet, Sweet song

Man Of Steel 03:54

MAN OF STEEL Yeah, Honey you can ride From the sunset till dawn Wear glasses, change your hair I’ll get you everywhere Man of steel, rusty soul, For Dollars fist full You gave me lead, They give you gold Yeah, Honey you can hide In a Motel out of town And stay still for years long You’ve got to hear my song Man of steel, rusty soul, For Dollars fist full You gave me lead, They give you gold Yeah, Honey ask my “Why”, So I can tell you lies If life is a disease, Your death is gonna ease Man of steel, rusty soul, For Dollars fist full You gave me lead, They give you gold Yeah, Honey you can cry, Today is the day you die They say dead or alive, I’m gonna make you fly... Man of steel, rusty soul, For Dollars fist full You gave me lead, They give you gold

My Elixir 03:57
lyrics
buy track
MY ELIXIR I remember the day I've met you some way Thuds were striking on my mind Till faith and demons were bind But then, back to the light, Your black wide eyes, my own delight I used to fear my blindness So carelessly and so helpless You were not the only one Passing through the storm But then, thunders are gone, You chased the devil, you shot him down Still, you might see a cracked face Like a wounded with no more fence Lost on the battle field Six feet under and still kneeled But then, came the new dawn, I don't even care where it's from Floods could give a way to a reborn Carved a path devoid of thorn Black water drowned the past Drain the pain before it last But then, what should I fear? You're the feeder stream, My Elixir.

We Wanna 04:01
lyrics

WE WANNA We Wanna... get away What seems too hard, we gonna pass is on Sometimes struggles on a way Are telling you what’s wrong with reason We’re warning you, life is too short, for craps and miracles... Sometimes I wish I could boy Give a spark and chase the time It’s coming for us now... for us now We Wanna... get away We might be lost, had paid the cost Don’t stop, follow what we hope And born this little thing we want the most We’re dreaming to, a roof to share, a joy to dare... Sometimes I wish I could boy Give a spark and chase the time It’s coming for us now... for us now We Wanna... get away Wait, it’s too hard, it tears us apart Let it shine, rising from the line The sun has come and brought the freedom We’re passing through, those heavy clouds of rain and wash the pain Sometimes I wish I could boy Give a spark and chase the time It’s coming for us now... for us now

Birds 03:50
lyrics

BIRDS Birds are singing the morning And in your dreams I’m falling There’s something new that I’m feeling Oh, I’m nearly flying... I’m in repose along your sleeps My “Jolie” fairy Buds are blooming between the sheets Nothing is lacking, I’m merry... The time of thunder is gone It’s time for a new dawn Please let me grow through this out of time And keep it slow darling, cause I want you mine... I like myself when in your eyes, All I see is fire I feel better than any guy Then let the flames get higher...

No more 04:09
lyrics

NO MORE You’ve been the sunshine of my nights And the sunset of my days I’ve been too shy to fight But you let me here, with no more words to say You’ve tried to put some colors But I remained a stain Turned your life into blurs And there were no worth, you ran far from that bane No more, no more I’m going on now And let you down boy No more, no more I’m going on...

THE TAIL WAGGING THE DOG I love but I don’t care You’ll find me everywhere I tell but I don’t talk I know my body spoke It’s fine under control The tail wagging the dog I dance but I don’t move Inside I’ve got the groove I eat but I don’t pay Just poor pays anyway It’s fine under control The tail wagging the dog I swear but tell you lies The truth would make you cry I love but I don’t care You’ll find me everywhere It’s fine under control The tail wagging the dog

about

Dans leur 1er Album – Let’s Get Higher – les Picky Banshees déroulent leur Pop-Folk authentique et balayent le temps au long d’un road trip engageant.

Un chant à deux voix, un souffle nostalgique mais jamais triste, sans limite et sans frontières.

Harmonies maîtrisées, voix rocailleuse, guitares, harmonica… de la musique simple, aussi efficace que dépaysante !

Laissez-vous conter la passion, l’urgence de vie dans ce qu’elle a de plus intense, de plus obsédant et de plus intime.
