“Underflow” is the stunning, heartbreaking new track from the Melbourne artist. Produced by Pascal Gabriel (Goldfrapp, Ladyhawke), it was premiered on Beats 1 radio, and is the first taste of her new album, due out in early 2016.
‘I wrote Underflow about that feeling that swells up inside of you when you know that things in your life are about to change. It’s like an undercurrent that at first you ignore, and it builds and builds until you know you need to make a decision, albeit hard and scary at the time. Then the change comes, and everything is new and different.’ – Emma Louise.
Emma Louise: Underflow
Emma Louise: Underflow Lyrics:
How much time is left?
Before the sun is gone
And our hearts are banned
Crying in our palms
And up with my life like in the wind
To let low, no one giving in
I put my life like in the wind
And I feel it in the underflow
I feel it in the underflow
I feel it in the underflow
And we miss each other in the dark
Like sheep in the night
And I cried a puddle
Deep into the belly of the shoulder blades
And I be smoking to the skies
To let love know I’m getting high
There’ll be no rest tonight
And I feel it in the underflow
I feel it in the underflow
I feel it in the underflow
But all I want is to feel your love
In a physical form not from over the ocean
Just to feel your beat from beside of me
Not in a digital form from across the sea
And all I want is to feel your love
In a physical form not from over the ocean
Just to feel your beat from underneath me
Skin on skin and heat on heat
And I feel it in the underflow
I feel it in the underflow
I feel it in the underflow
