More info about the artist:
Jules’ intimate landscapes imbue everyday musings with magic and tenderness. Singing and writing have always been part of her core whether shared outwardly with those around her or not, but her passion for both ripened through her self discovery journey and has only snowballed ever since. Though her great-grandmother sang professionally during WW2, jules and her siblings grew up as closeted singers and she would be the first of them to take the next step with creative ventures. Finally coming out of her shell, the Toronto based emerging singer-songwriter brings forth a hypnotic brand of understated yet dexterous vocals, evocative of artists like Billie Marten, Samia, and Clairo. Jules unveils an unapologetically tender world that carries with it enchanting melodies. Her 2 songs were created in collaboration with well rounded musical artist Jake Feeney prove to be a great introduction that sets the tone as she steps into her identity as an artist, and she has more to come.
That’s all for this time 🙂 I hope this sweet, warm, and slightly melancholic folk song made your day a bit better. Thanks for your time. Enjoy the music and stand with Ukraine! Peace <3
Lyrics:
And I am falling for you in every way Guide me in I’m hesitant As I am falling forwards on my face I can’t tell what I’m feeling anymore Lately I’d rather be Living amongst those better days You attempt to get through to me I know you’ve been trying tirelessly Am I a lover or a guarded wall Can’t distinguish it at all You’ve been waiting for me to come around I can’t tell what I’m feeling I’m not sure Lately I’d rather be Living amongst those better days You attempt to get through to me I know you’ve been trying tirelessly When I am awake I try to stay in this state But the world around It takes me Lately I’d rather be Living amongst those better days You attempt to get through to me I know you’ve been trying tirelessly
