constant drifting space no fear by a pepper moon
look at all the waves down here did we peak too soon
all the deadly dreams we had that i cant believe
the universal messages that we don’t receive
even though we know its forever changing
even though we know we lie and wait
even though we know the hidden danger
i hope its not too late
slowly follow shining stars for the solar flare
im on borrowed time right now running low on air
its a pity you cant see such a travesty
gonna give myself to the deep majesty
even though we know its forever changing
even though we know we lie and wait
even though we know the hidden danger
i hope its not too late
la na na naa
la na na ne naa
la la na naa na naa
even though we know its forever changing
even though we know we lie and wait
even though we know the hidden danger
i hope its not too late
even though we know its forever changing
even though we know we lie and wait
even though we know the hidden danger
i hope its not too late
la la na naa
la na na ne naa
la la na naa na naa
Morcheeba comenzó su carrera a mediados de los años 90 y rápidamente, gracias a la voz de terciopelo de su cantante y a la inteligente mezcla de ritmos electrónicos y guitarras eléctricas y acústicas, se convirtieron en uno de los máximos exponentes de su país, ofreciendo un amplio repertorio de canciones difícilmente olvidables (The sea, Shoulder holster, Be yourself, World looking in...), en muchas ocasiones gracias a la publicidad y a la radio.
Flocking to the sea
Crowds of people wait for me
Sea gulls scavenge
Steal ice cream
Worries vanish
Within my dream
I left my soul there,
Down by the sea
I lost control here
Living free
I left my soul there,
Down by the sea
I lost control here
Living free
Fishing boats sail past the shore
No singing may-day any more
The sun is shining
The Water's clear
Just you and I walk along the pier
I left my soul there,
Down by the sea
I lost control here
Living free
I left my soul there,
Down by the sea
I lost control here
Living free
A cool breeze flows but mind the wasp
Some get stung it's worth the cost
I'd love to stay
The city calls me home
More hassles fuss and lies on the phone
I left my soul there,
Down by the sea
I lost control here
Living free
I left my soul there,
Down by the sea
I lost control here
Living free
I left my soul there,
Down by the sea
I lost control here
Living free
I left my soul there,
Down by the sea
I lost control with you,
And living, living,
And I, living, by the sea
En 2005, tras la marcha de Skye, apareció The antidote, en el que figuraba como vocalista Daisy Martey.
What do you feel
When you let go of the wheel
Can you take a leap of faith
Will you face the change of pace
There are worlds out there
Beyond compare
Going on a journey
Somewhere far out east
We'll find the time to show you
Wonders never cease
All that we’ve been through
Brings my soul so close to you
Why not cast your fears aside
We can laugh until we cry
There are worlds out there
Beyond compare
Going on a journey
Somewhere far out east
We’ll find the time to show you
Wonders never cease
Going on a journey
Somewhere far out east
We’ll find the time to show you
Wonders never cease
Wonders never cease
Wonders never cease
Wonders never cease
Wonders never cease
Wonders never cease
Wonders never cease...
Considerando que hacer olvidar a la primera cantante era bastante complicado, los aficionados y críticos fueron algo injustos, si bien a nadie benefició la separación, Morcheeba (o more chiba en slang) era la voz de Skye, y ningún sustituto, formal o eventual (el disco posterior Dive Deep contaría con una serie de colaboradores como Judy Tzuke y Thomas Dybdahl) llegarían al nivel, aunque en ambos discos continúan sobresaliendo algunas buenas canciones. Por otro lado, el álbum de Skye de 2006 titulado Mind how you go pasó con más pena que gloria...así pues, celebremos la reunión y deseémosles suerte con el nuevo disco.
