  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    My first full studio album!
    Recorded at the Cowshed, London and engineered by Joe Leach. I began planning this album around the end of 2000 after I was approached by Peter Kenny following a gig at the Samuel Pepys in Hackney (a great little venue which was right beside the Hackney Empire, sadly now no more). He came on board as executive producer and the rest, as they say, is history. We set up Natural5Four Records in 2001 to record and release this. It was showcased in December 2004 at the wonderful 12 Bar Club in London's West End (also sadly no more! What's happening to all the perfectly formed small London venues? We can't all afford to play the 02 you know!) The beginning of a new creative journey...

    Note from Natural5Four Records...
    There are less than 100 copies of 'Exiles' remaining from this original release. Once these sell out, the album will be repackaged and reissued with changes to the artwork and track listing.

    Includes unlimited streaming of Exiles via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

Drop the penny Change rolls round Over here is where the wind blows My brothers and my sisters say Mother Tongue knows Tell the story Change rolls round Far from here is where the wind blows My brothers and my sisters say Mother Tongue knows Who in the World has been taken from you? Who in the World has been taken? Move the mountain Change rolls round Far from here is where the wind blows My brothers and my sisters say Mother Tongue knows Who in the World has taken from you? Who in the World has taken? Drop the penny Change rolls round Over here is where the wind blows My brothers and my sisters say Mother Tongue knows © J. Eoin 2001

The Deluge 05:16
lyrics
buy track
When was the first time you felt You were someone special? When was the first time you felt You were standing up tall? Gather yourself and all who possess you Hollow inside The Deluge will come without warning When was the first time you felt You were someone special? When was the first time you felt You were ready to fall? Gather yourself and all who possess you Hollow inside The Deluge will come without warning Head over heels The Heroine kisses The Mouth of The Moon She was there looking thin looking cold Looking hungry and wild When was the first time you felt You were someone special? When was the first time you felt You were nothing and all? Gather yourself and all who possess you Hollow inside The Deluge will come without warning Head over heels The Heroine kisses The Mouth of The Moon She was there looking thin looking cold Looking hungry and wild Head over heels The Heroine swallows The Light from The Moon She was there with The Angles so bright Looking older and wise Cad a dheánamid ánn gan feasta Tá deireadh na coillte ar lár When was the first time? © J.

Drunken Jesus was a friend of mine Talk about it Take your time One way One down One way down Perfect circles for a perfect world Straight lines where the Earth is curved So near So far Room for one more inside Remember me Drunken Jesus was a friend of mine Drunken Jesus was my favourite son Talk about it Tell everyone Some people Some say Some people say Vicious circles for a vicious world Strange lines where the Earth has turned So far So good Room for one more inside Remember me Drunken Jesus was my favourite son Drunken Jesus was a friend of mine Talk about it Take your time What will you grow up to be?

I don’t understand you You say I never will I find it hard to break through The beating heart is still Many arms surround us Touched by every hand Many arms have found us Gathered where we stand Come away Leave this place forever Exiles when we fly Come away Leave this place together Exiles when we rise I don’t understand why You say the things you do I find it hard to follow The spoken word is true Others they surround us Touched on every side Others they have found us Gathered where we lie Come away Leave this place forever Exiles when we fly Come away Leave this place together Exiles when we rise © J.

Ride on the far away ocean Break on the city shore Rise on the winds wild notion Dreamed by the open door A far cry from this station A place on the underground Big men worn down Cash Nation See you on the turnaround Go home boys home Go home Begin where you plan to leave from Ghost with a hungry smile Last breath on a cold glass frosting Make yourself up in your own mind From the side to the side On the inside A spot Mister Anna found No child is a child forever See you on the turnaround Go home boys home Go home Sean One Shoe says he knows you When I grew up the World got bigger too Ride on the far away ocean Break on the city shore Rise on the winds wild notion Dreamed by the open door Sean One Shoe says he knows you © J.

Captain Black 03:56
lyrics
buy track
One more call before morning One last call late at night In the back of the head Outside the window at zero approaching Straight through with no time to think Less time to pray Over the rooftops we jump to the warning Near empty streets in direct line of fire It takes a bare moment to kill your opponent Remember that Captain Black said Inside four walls safe as the houses feel Watching the walls and yourself as your own refugee Outside the window at zero approaching Straight through with no time to think Less time to pray Cover your eyes and your ears with the Red Hand Only our rivers and bloodstreams run free It takes a bare moment to kill your opponent Remember that Captain Black said Talk at the bar for the rest of the miracle Talk among friends and your enemy wishes you well Outside the window at zero approaching Straight through with no time to think Less time to pray Make no mistake We all stand on the wrong side Blank as a stare Open wide with the fright It takes a bare moment to kill your opponent Remember that Captain Black said It takes a bare moment to kill your opponent Remember that Captain Black’s dead © J. Eoin 2001

I could believe Anything you told me I could believe Anything you say is true I’ll take my time I’ll think this whole thing over I could believe Anything of you Losing my way No sense of direction Losing my way I could stumble and fall As time goes by We no longer know for certain Losing my way In the light of it all I could believe Anything you told me I could believe Anything you say is true I’ll take my time I’ll think this whole thing over I could believe Anything of you Anything of you © J.

If you see her and she’s blue If you see her heart is true Tell her Somebody cares If you ever hear her say Too many hours in one day Tell her Somebody cares She knows what goes She counts the thorns on every rose She knows what’s worth waiting for If you want to see her smile See the love light in her eyes Tell her Somebody cares She knows what goes She counts the thorns on every rose She knows what’s worth waiting for If you see her and she’s blue If you see her heart is true Tell her Somebody cares © J.

Claws 03:49

Walk in shallow streams As evening falls Across these stones Water breaks uneven Listen as the wind drops Close to my ear Take these claws Wrap your love around them Now the barriers Are common ground Free up the chains The walls are silent Lead the way We are two from here Where you go I will follow I was like you were I was like you were now © J.

This is a happy house We see ourselves In those who come to stay hey hey So happy here We see ourselves In those who come to play Two boys in ecstasy One to one and one of them is me And only you Take me But don’t take my love for real I hide behind The way you feel I feel you feel that too This is a happy house We see ourselves In those who come to stay hey hey So happy here We see ourselves In those who come to play Two boys in later years Lost for words and fighting back the tears And all for you Take me But don’t take my love for free We see the same things Differently I know you know that too This is a happy house We see ourselves In those who come to stay So happy here We see ourselves In those who come to play Heaven she said Is just one breath away Heaven she said Is just one breath Just one breath One breath away I love you In a special way © J.
