about

When You’re Dancing is an upbeat, loud indie rock riot. Fueled by anger and disbelief at the state of modern British politics and government and driven by energetic guitar riffs and synths. Vocally Jamie delivers this at full tilt very much in the vein of his live performances.

Jamie says “I didn’t realise just how frustrated I’d become until I started to write this. As if all the tension of Brexit and pandemic Britain, the incompetence and arrogance all started to hit home and it started to really write itself”
“It then had to be big and it had to be blistering, but also, I wanted it to be fun to listen to

lyrics

Taking the time to tread the line, between the vision and the Fall
you want it all.
Paying attention to the deal, when you signed away your soul
it isn't real
Can you hear us when we call you out on al the things you said
Can you hear us at all

Coz its Alright if it gets you through the night
and its ok when you're dancing like you'll never know their name

now you've given me are promises I never asked you for
I wanted more
you post the meme and spread the lie, algorithm truth divides
lets pick a side
Can you see us coming for you in the corner of your screen
can you see us at all

Coz its Alright if it gets you through the night
and its ok when you're dancing like you'll never know their name

and I can stand another minute of this insta-filtered shame
I can't breathe I think I'm suffocating

Can you feel us breathing down your neck , the shiver down your wire
can you feel through a wire?

Coz its Alright if it gets you through the night
and its ok when you're dancing like you'll never know their name
