about

The first single taken from their new album Je Suis la Pomme Rouge was created when lead singer Nischay became fascinated with the history of Richard I, the Troubadour King. One of the few ‘artists’ who held a position of such power. This fascination co-incided with Nischay also trying to learn French on the Duolingo app. The chorus of this song is one of the few sentences he learned to construct.

lyrics

In the streets they ask me how I feel
A crowd that's quick to show me sympathy
One by one they all surround me
Disregarding space and boundaries

But I don't think that I’m gonna let them in
I'll just give them the old smile and wink
When they line up to ask me what I think
I won't hesitate, no, I won't blink

I'll say
Je suis
Je suis la pomme rouge  There’s no story in telling the truth
Je suis la pomme rouge

In the morning, the birds, they sing to you
Their song, it travels down the avenue
Up the stairs and right into your room
Turn the corner and gaze at the moon

Through the continent
You'll forge a quest
You may fail, but you will try your best
This enterprise, it may seem ludicrous
Seek adventure, this is what you get

Je suis
Je suis la pomme rouge  There’s no story in telling the truth
Je suis la pomme rouge  I never knew  Where life would go  Or who I’d be  Minding my mood  Buying new clothes  And moving cities  Sometimes I miss it  Making decisions only for me   
Je suis
Je suis la pomme rouge  There’s no glory in telling the truth
 Je suis
Je suis la pomme rouge  There’s no story in telling the truth
Je suis la pomme rouge
