about

Acoustic version of the DoNY track Nails.
Nails was inspired by relationship issues and the need to strive for something more. You make the decision and have to live with the consequences. But did you actually make a choice or was it made for you? In a more literal sense, the lyrics can also be applied to current world events where people really were forced into a certain course of action.

lyrics

The sky's alight – tonight
Set on fire to burn
I don't recognise this place anymore
I don't know where to turn

You need the simple things
Get out before your part of the scenery
Take every day just as it comes
I guess you're made of nails

There's pain in the city
Cut right though it's heart and soul
We paid the price, to live this life
But who is really in control?

You need the simple things
Get out before your part of the scenery
Take every day just as it comes
I guess you're made of nails

about

Dukes of New York UK

Dukes of New York are a Pop/Rock band from the UK.

Our shiny new single is “Poor You”. With Zoe singing the lead vocal, it’s a song about the refusal to kowtow to the follies of the tame and the fake.

The EP “Wake Up” features 3 pumping tracks. “Wake Up the Make Up” (a reflection on mis-placed snobbery), “José” (unrequited love with a twist) & “Ventura” (inspired by tangled love lives).
