"An album, thats defies genres. Excellent that we can finally start hearing independent music that would never be commercially viable enough for mainstream releases." J.Nigel - Independent music review panel. Donated to the Independent music trust by the Underbards. "Past but present" is a great example of the independent music that the trust is making available for the first time. All profits from the sales of this music will first go to the artist and secondly to supporting and promoting British Indepen- dent music.

Recorded at rainbow studios all © Danbo Publishing 2012. Track 1 - Isis Oasis - 5.34 minutes. You were working in a bar, I saw you from afar, I never thought, I'd be the one to care for you. And you loved the drugs...yer you loved the thrill of the chase, Isis Oasis chewing off your face. Crawling on the pool table, in that tiny, little skirt. No one else in the bar, quite knew where to look. Isis Oasis, so pretty your face is. I can tell from the scars, that you've has it hard. Isis Oasis, so pretty your face is. I can tell from the scars, that you've has it hard. And we went to the casino, should've realized then, anything and everything, down your neck. And you took my hand, placed it on your breast, thought it was what I wanted, but I was only a friend. Isis Oasis, so pretty your face is. I can tell from the scars, that you've has it hard. Isis Oasis, so pretty your face is. I can tell from afar, just how good you are. Track 2 - The only way - 2.23 minutes. You spend your whole life dreaming, about the change that'll make it alright. What would you say, if I told you that it wasn't meant that way. You see something you like, you want it, but you don't want the fight. What would you say, if I told you that it was the only way. The only way, don't even think about, getting it wrong. Life is your song, how could you possibly get it wrong. Track 3 - Dancing Lollita (Ibiza happy mix feat) - 5.56 minutes. Wrap my arms around you, I'll be your cotton collar, make you feel so nice, my dancing Lolita. Take you through the night, keep you feeling so nice. Stay with me, dancing Lolita I'm the beat that doesn't seem right. Stay with me dancing Lolita I'm the beat that doesn't seem right. Track 4 - Never stop the search - 3.16 minutes Walls they keep falling down, waves keep on crashing against the shore. Just like my thoughts, the tide keeps coming back for more. So I, I'm gonna take this World and call it my home, never stop the search, till its home no more. I look up to the sky, picture my troubles floating away on childhood like, rainbow colored bubbles and I, I'm gonna take this World and call it my home. Never stop the search, till its home no more Never stop the search, till its home no more. Track 5 - Runaway If I was you, you know what I'd do, If I was you I'd runaway now. If I was you, just what I'd do. She treats you like poo, like sh*t on your shoe, she don't love you. If I was you, its just what I'd do. I'd runaway, runaway. Runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway now. Things happen in the past, make you feel sh*t, get over it. I bet the nookie its bitty. Run away. Did she even make you wait that long, the cotton thong was just a con. Was it over real quick? Uncomfortably and thats how its stays. Its time to run away. Runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway now. Runaway. Track 6 - In a beat...3 could work (Mingus Parker, Lofthouse, Drake Jansch instrumental) - 5.43 minutes Track 7 - Left right open - 2.31 minutes You been, left right open out of control. Yer you've been, left right open out of control. Don't look down, they'll see your trodden down soles, From the streets that you've walked, thinking of the memories, that you've had, loved and lost. Yer you've been, left right open out of control. Yer, you've been, left right open out of control. All © Danbo Publishing.
