Deliver 04:10
VERSE 1: You said it all, with that look you gave A look only I can see And if you could, then you would wonder How and why... me? CHORUS: And all I wanted was your love Why could you not deliver? And if we tried harder maybe we Could have loved forever VERSE 2: And if you look closely in the looking glass You might just see what I can see A look of disdain for no reason The look that says you're lost at sea CHORUS: And all I wanted was your love Why could you not deliver? And if we tried harder maybe we Could have loved forever Yeah... You're all I ever wanted I tried and tried so many times Why could you not deliver? And if we tried harder maybe we Could have loved forever I tried and tried so many times Why could you not deliver? And if we tried harder maybe we Could have loved forever And if we tried harder maybe we Could have loved forever Why could you not deliver?

Breathing 03:14
VERSE 1 I'm breathin' in but only breathing thin air Talking all the time but not getting anywhere Falling for and in and out of love The breaking heart comes always hand in glove CHORUS I'm barely breathing... when I think about her I'm barely breathing... when I think about her VERSE 2 I'm walking down your street, I can't stand the atmosphere A few small steps away, and then I'll be out of here I'm walking back to freedom and I'm walking in the rain I'm moving so my head is clear, 'cos I can't stand this pain CHORUS I'm barely breathing... when I think about her I'm barely breathing... when I think about her I'm barely breathing... when I think about her I'm barely breathing... when I think about her When I think about her... Breathin' in but only breathing thin air Talking all the time but not getting anywhere Falling for and in and out of love The breaking heart comes always hand in glove CHORUS I'm barely breathing... when I think about her I'm barely breathing... when I think about her I'm barely breathing... when I think about her I'm barely breathing... when I think about her I'm barely breathing...

NARRATIVE 1: (DJ 1LOVE -- Paul Todd) "It is being reported that over 40% of new internet profiles are actually fake. Why are so many people setting up fake profiles?" VERSE 1: It's time to dance Like no one's watching Trust yourself And no cross talking Believe in love No bad religion Fool no one Your dreams fulfilling CHORUS: Out of all the places we could be We lose ourselves so easily Do not mistake identity INVISIBLE There are times when fortunes favour me And times that I no longer see But all the way, I find the game INCREDIBLE NARRATIVE 2: (STEVE BENZ -- WSDI Worldwide) "Fake profiles are set up by a combination of either spammers and virus writers, or people attempting to say malicious things without the risk of being caught... They believe they are so called -- INVISIBLE -- They're about to find out they aren't INVISIBLE, any longer... I-I-I—I—I-I-INVISIBLE I-I—I-I-I-INVISIBLE INVISIBLE" VERSE 2: Take yourself To the top of the mountain Breathe the air Like no one's counting Now it's time to rise Above the bar now You will reach The furthest star now CHORUS: Out of all the places we could be We lose ourselves so easily Do not mistake identity INVISIBLE There are times when fortunes favour me And times that I no longer see But all the way, I find the game INCREDIBLE NARRATIVE 3: (DJ 1LOVE -- Paul Todd) "Only 1 in 10 victims will inform a parent or trusted adult of cyber bullying abuse... Cyber bullying abuse is the use of the internet and related technologies to harm other people in a deliberate, repeated and hostile manner... Why are so many people setting up fake profiles?" NARRATIVE 4: (STEVE BENZ -- WSDI Worldwide) "Fake profiles are set up by a combination of either spammers and virus writers, or people attempting to say malicious things without the risk of being caught..." CHORUS: Out of all the places we could be We lose ourselves so easily Do not mistake identity INVISIBLE There are times when fortunes favour me And times that I no longer see But all the way, I find the game INCREDIBLE How lonely must your cold life be If all the world but you can see The dull cast shadow that you leave INVISIBLE

VERSE 1: I was there when you wanted me I was scared 'cos I couldn't see Constantly falling And out for the count VERSE 2: Brutal and painful What time's your awakening?

When you should be climbing Sensational calling CHORUS: Just another love song Just another love song Just another love song Just another love song Just another love song Just another love song Just another love song Just another love song

Mountain 03:53
VERSE 1 Strange times, I've had enough of strange times I wish that we could go back again The day we thought that love would not end We were brave then, never fearing no one Our lives were somehow caught in a trap Forever were the feelings on tap CHORUS Now you talk of freedom And I can't stop hurting You can't stop talking You'll not stop me walking I shout to the mountain Never again, no no.... Now I see you walking And I stand here helpless Forsaking my feelings Traversing the ceilings I shout to the mountain Never again Again! VERSE 2 Warning signs, I should have read between the lines Living through this heartache and pain I swear I'll never do this again Impossible, our lives became intolerable Walking through the fire became The scars to make these feelings remain CHORUS Now you talk of freedom And I can't stop hurting You can't stop talking You'll not stop me walking I shout to the mountain Never again, no no.... Now I see you walking And I stand here helpless Forsaking my feelings Traversing the ceilings I shout to the mountain Never again Again! INSTRUMENTAL Never again, I shout to the mountain Aww, I shout to the mountain Mmm yeah, never again CHORUS Now you talk of freedom And I can't stop hurting You can't stop talking You'll not stop me walking I shout to the mountain Never again, no no.... Now I see you walking And I stand here helpless Forsaking my feelings Traversing the ceilings I shout to the mountain Never again Never Again!

INTRO: Will you change your mind? Will you change your mind? Will you change your mind? Will you change your mind? VERSE 1: That lost look on your face There is no disgrace My words seem to fall Around this empty space I've tried to look for clues It's neither win or lose Your heart will not turn And according to you I don't want to be there when you take the path less worn Though I will be there when your wedding dress is torn CHORUS: And should you change your mind Should you change your point of view Will you allow some time… For me to love you? VERSE 2: I didn't wanna join the race Could not live at your pace And what was there to gain While enduring this pain A false sense of security Brings with it some obscurity And if falling from your grace Means that I can feel safe I don't want to be there when you take the path less worn Though I will be there when your wedding dress is torn CHORUS: And should you change your mind Should you change your point of view Will you allow some time… For me to love you? INSTRUMENTAL: Will you change your mind? Will you change your mind? Will you change your mind? Will you change your mind? CHORUS: And should you change your mind Should you change your point of view Will you allow some time… For me to love you? And should you change your mind Should you change your point of view Will you allow some time… For me to love you? Should you change your mind Change your mind

Brave Boy 03:27
VERSE 1: Brave boy, you are the one and only unashamed boy It's easy to forget you're so afraid boy Afraid of overlooking, like a strange toy The clown that someone gave you for your birthday CHORUS: Now it's time to release your love Yes it's time to release your love VERSE 2: Sometimes, a rich imagination takes you nowhere You allow for conversations to meander Your every word though poison, some believe you The strangest thing of all is I don't know you CHORUS: Now it's time to release your love Yes it's time to release your love INSTRUMENTAL: END CHANT: For the sake of the truth And the making of you Will you walk with me now And remember who's who We can take all our lives The light blinding yet giving Leading the way to what's right And forgiving CHORUS: Now it's time to release your love Yes it's time to release your love Now it's time to release your love

Fall 03:47
VERSE 1: Was it me that you loved? Or was it just the beginning? The opening line With no sense of winning VERSE 2: We were perfectly balanced On the rooftops of chance All neatly arranged Around your circumstance CHORUS: If I should fall into your arms tonight If I should fall, I hope that you’ll hold me tight If I should fall, fall at your feet tonight If I should fall, I hope you'll be waiting I hope you'll be there VERSE 3: There's a crazy man out there And he's chasing a dream Will nobody tell him He's been caught at the scene CHORUS: If I should fall into your arms tonight If I should fall, I hope that you’ll hold me tight If I should fall, fall at your feet tonight If I should fall, I hope you'll be waiting I hope you'll be there INSTRUMENTAL: …I hope you’re gonna catch me CHORUS: If I should fall into your arms tonight If I should fall, I hope that you’ll hold me tight If I should fall, fall at your feet tonight If I should fall, I hope you'll be waiting I hope you’re gonna catch me If I should fall into your arms tonight If I should fall, I hope that you’ll hold me tight If I should fall, fall at your feet tonight If I should fall, I hope you'll be waiting I hope you’re gonna catch me If I should fall into your arms tonight If I should fall, I hope that you’ll hold me tight If I should fall, fall at your feet tonight If I should fall, I hope you'll be waiting I hope you'll be there

VERSE 1: There was a time Our heads in the clouds No reason or rhyme Or searching for rainbows Without knowing why The long hot summers We thought would never end And they never did CHORUS: And we never found The heart of the unicorn We never found Something so beautiful We never found The heart of the unicorn We never found That truly magical place VERSE 2: When you see me reaching In search for your soul Make no mistake My heart won't grow cold Failure to deliver My hopes and fears Recalling the moments When your temper brought tears CHORUS: And we never found The heart of the unicorn We never found Something so beautiful We never found The heart of the unicorn We never found That truly magical place INSTRUMENTAL: CHORUS: And we never found The heart of the unicorn We never found Something so beautiful We never found The heart of the unicorn We never found That truly magical place Something so beautiful…

Showdown 04:37
VERSE 1: Blind arguments over little white lies A sign of our frustrations In our lives Fear of knowledge, keeps our moments alive There are those of us too eager To analyze CHORUS: Showdown Showdown Showdown Just another showdown VERSE 2: The flame’s still burning, though admittedly less Your latent admiration puts me to the test And this game you started; I don't want to play anymore There’s no swords or knights or soldiers To defend your cause CHORUS: Showdown Showdown Showdown Just another showdown Showdown Showdown Showdown Just another showdown INSTRUMENTAL: The flames just keep on burning They’re burning They’re burning They’re burning CHORUS: Showdown Showdown Showdown Just another showdown Showdown Showdown Showdown Just another showdown

about

Manchester based music producer, Jon Brooks, teamed up with fellow Mancunian Clive Farrington (lead vocalist of ‘When In Rome’) to co-write and produce Clive’s first solo album ‘Independence’.

‘When in Rome’ had a No. 1 hit single in the USA called ‘The Promise’. It was released in 1988. In 2004, ‘The Promise’ was used as the end title theme for the successful movie, ‘Napoleon Dynamite’. Due to unfortunate legal issues over the band name ‘When In Rome’, Clive decided to go ahead with a solo album.

The official release date (4th July 2013) is significant; not only does it symbolise independence in the United States; it also represents Clive Farrington’s independent release outside of ‘When in Rome’.

The new album exhibits a fusion of styles; blending classical orchestral elements with a modern day electronic sound... as an addition to this, ‘Independence’ also boasts a hint of the 80’s too! It’s already receiving extensive radio play and TMR Records have just negotiated and licensed two of the tracks to GAP (Mexico) for use on their latest compilation CD. Various tracks on the album could be classed as a cross between the ‘Pet Shop Boys’, David Guetta, Scott Walker and Robert Miles. The songs are honest, suitably original and highly emotive.

Clive: “I met Jon whilst working as a Technical Install Manager at Castle Rock Studios in Alderley Edge, Cheshire, UK. The CRS studio was being built by the ‘The Studio People’. At the same time, and unbeknown to me, a smaller version on the same design level as CRS was being built right around the corner from my home in Stockport, Cheshire, UK! The builders on that project would come by CRS and tell me about Jon Brooks and how he’s into film scoring and music production... Right up my street, I thought!!! Jon has a Masters in Composition for Film and Television. He had just relocated back to the UK after spending six years working as an in-house composer for one of the best audio post-production studios in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. He specialised in music composition and audio production for film, television and advertising. I wanted to get to know him and maybe put something together. I dropped by Jon’s studio and left my card with his father. Jon called me a week later, and now... just listen to the new album and breathe in the fabulous results!”

The new album ‘INDEPENDENCE’ was released on their new record label: TMR (Tough Monkey Records) through Kobalt Label Services / AWAL on July 4th 2013.
