[2020-05-23] Gonna Get Yours


There is a lot of awesome audio content on Gemini and I realised I never wrote about what I do music-wise, time to change that!

I play the bass in Gonna Get Yours, we play Oi! music since 2005. Looking as some backup I stubled upon some lyrics I wrote for our latest album. We had this song for a little while with a late 80s hardcore vibe but it had no lyrics. The singer asked me to write some the day before the recording and this is what I got. Funny how social networks was already a problem for me. Those are not great lyrics by any mean but I thought it would be fun to share.



Back in the days / when gigs were sparse
Being part of the the scene / meant something
Writing zines / running a distro
Now it's just the look and a lot of likes
No picture / No glory / You're no one
No picture / No glory / ...
No picture / No glory / ...
...
Addicted / to the echo chamber
You're struggling for / one more fix
Look at my shirt / Look at my meal
See all my friends / from everywhere
No picture / No glory / You're no one
No picture / No glory / ...
No picture / No glory / ...
...
BREAK

Oi! that's the way you are
Oi! a showoff in disguise
Oi! that's the way you are
Oi! why don't you just get a life

Plastic clips / platic songs
Getting clicks / and selling shirts
I miss those days / when we were just
A minor threat / begging to differ
No picture / No glory / You're no one
No picture / No glory / ...
No picture / No glory / ...
...

Listen to the (unmixed and untitled) song [2016]


In the end we changed the lyrics a bit but didn't keep it for the album. Maybe we'll release it for some split EP someday.


All of our recordings are available for free on Bandcamp.
