Daniel Smith A fantastic collection of unashamedly catchy indie pop songs. It's musical comfort food really... There's not a single track where I'm reaching for the skip button, and that's pretty rare. Great stuff - deserves far more attention than its likely getting Favorite track: Little Truth.

Chin Up 02:47
Oh my friend you’re no longer together, but you’re alright She hung up when you called her to beg her to give it one last try Only love can mess you up But don’t give in with a half full cup Stick around for a change of luck Keep your chin up There are so many fish in the ocean, so take a swim You got thrown and you can’t quite get over it, but you’ll be coming round again Only love can mess you up But don’t give in with a half full cup Stick around for a change of luck Keep your chin up What you’re doing here is taking time to steer back towards us Find a forward gear and maybe next you’ll fall in love Ooh Only love can mess you up But don’t give in with a half full cup Stick around for a change of luck Keep your chin up

Little Truth 03:38
I want more in my life Don't want war in my mind You were right, but I Only wish you could've not been so right How I wish you could've not been so right Take, take this little truth Run it all around, so they can shoot it down Maybe cos it's not new Maybe cos it's not new Is a dreamer a fool? Guess I'll have to make do You were right, but I Only wish you could've not been so right How I wish you could've not been so right Take, take this little truth Run it all around, so they can shoot it down Maybe cos it's not new (maybe it’s not brand new) Maybe cos it's not new (maybe it’s not brand new) You were right, but I Only wish you could've not been so right How I wish you could've not been so right Take, take this little truth Run it all around, so they can shoot it down Maybe cos it's not new (maybe it’s not brand new) Maybe cos it's not new (maybe it’s not brand new)

Chemistry 03:00
When I told you I loved you (yeah) Well you pushed me away (ooh) But you tug on my heartstrings (everyday) Well my world’s looking downward (yes it is) I call you every night But there’s no more chemistry, it’s fading fast for me (I don’t think about that) Oh (I don’t think about that) No more history, it’s in the past for me (I don’t think about that) Oh (I don’t think about that) Oh Well you wouldn’t listen (no) When I asked you to stay (ooh) But I’m glad that you didn’t (it’s better this way) So keep on looking forward (see it girl) There’s nothing left to say There’s no more chemistry, it’s fading fast for me (I don’t think about that) Oh (I don’t think about that) No more history, it’s in the past for me (I don’t think about that) Oh I see ground, I can help you Never wanted to hate you And I’ve been round, this old news I can’t keep on coming back to lose No more chemistry, no I don’t think about that No more chemistry, it’s fading fast for me (I don’t think about that) Oh (I don’t think about that) No more history, it’s in the past for me (I don’t think about that) Oh (I don’t think about that) Oh, Ooh

Passing Fad 03:42
If you leave me tomorrow, I’ll make plans to start anew Cos you won’t wait forever, I’ll start getting over you It’s a shame but we can’t go back to when we were young Let’s agree not to drag it out, I think we are done You can call me a loser, while I’m calling you a cab I guess we weren’t the sweethearts, we were just a passing fad All the times that you couldn’t figure out your mood Now we know it was just a bad case of me and you There’s no point crying we’ve done enough trying There’s no point crying we’ve done enough trying There’s no point trying we’ve done enough crying There’s no point crying I think you’ll be delighted when you find yourself a man Who is bold brave and handsome, but who doesn’t answer back And I’ll find myself an Indie girl that likes who I am And we’ll agree that The Beatles are the best ever band There’s no point trying we’ve done enough crying There’s no point crying we’ve done enough trying There’s no point trying we’ve done enough crying There’s no point crying we’ve done enough trying There’s no point trying There’s no point trying, ah ah There’s no point crying, ah ah There’s no point trying

You ain't trying Some things are undeniable The secret is you were lying And I should've waited for somebody else I thought you were great but you're out for yourself And now I'm awake I'm not under your spell I take back the way that I felt You let go And now I see that from the get-go I should've been more respectful Of my own fears but now I know And I should've waited for somebody else I thought you were great but you're out for yourself And now I'm awake I'm not under your spell I take back the way that I felt And I should've waited for somebody else I thought you were great but you're out for yourself And now I'm awake I'm not under your spell I take back the way that I felt credits

Parade 02:14
Well I know I wanna be around here on any old given day And at least I'm going up and down yeah, or round & round anyway I was always kinda disappointed, reaching for a better view And I never knew what I wanted, but now I think I do One more thing before I go, I really wanna stay So I’ll show I can lead it all the way Well I know I’ve run away from changes, never knowing where to begin But I'm ready for bigger stages, and I’ll either sink or swim One more thing before I go I really wanna stay So I’ll show I can lead it all the way One more thing to tell you I was always home-made And I hope that you'll see me on parade It's better to burn through than to fade So I’ll do what I do on parade At least I wanna be around here, on any old given day And I know I'm going up and down yeah, or round & round anyway One more thing before I go I really wanna stay So I’ll show I can lead it all the way One more thing to tell you I was always home-made And I hope that you'll see me on parade

Home Run 03:20
Someday you’ll understand Why I can’t be your man I’m just a loner Someday it will get through Why I can’t talk to you I’m just a loser Rain or shine I’m either one of those Said goodbye when I needed you the most Ooh ooh ooh I’ll be fine I’m feeling out the worst Can’t be blind I know they're only words Ooh ooh ooh Someday you’ll get my text And I won’t be mess I’ll be a home run But until then I guess I’ll never pass the test I’ll be a loner Rain or shine I’m either one of those Said goodbye when I needed you the most Ooh ooh ooh I’ll be fine I’m feeling out the worst Can’t be blind I know it's only words Ooh ooh ooh Aah aah aah aah Woah oh oh oh Ah ah ah yeah Ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh Rain or shine

After Dark 03:10
I admit, I don’t think that I did something wrong So I don’t know where you are coming from Why is everything a problem? You’re running away from me It’s a walk in the park So what can I say? Baby, don’t leave me after dark Tell you what, I am giving you that head start Cos you only want to be apart And you keep aiming right for the heart You’re running away from me It’s a walk in the park So what can I say? Baby, don’t leave me after dark No way to know I’d need you, there’s something about you, something about you But now you go, and I see you, there’s something about you, something about you I’m looking for a reason, there’s something about you, something about you I didn’t know I’d need you, there’s something about you, something about you You’re running away from me It’s a walk in the park So what can I say? Baby, don’t leave me after dark

All Things 02:13
All the things that I regret Those words I should've said, but All things must pass away All things must end this way Oh babe I want you back So done with feeling sad, now All things must pass away All things must end this way Don't carry on like that - like you know It weren't so bad, oh And If only I had not said that, well I know I could go back Oh babe you were the best Lay your head upon my chest, now
