Extra Extra

Extra Extra really started out as a solo project, and when I decided to cut these tunes, I had some friends who wanted to participate in the making of the album

Extra Extra started out primarily as a studio project, focusing on a wide array of styles that really had no pin-pointed boundries.Through this noncompliance approach, but still having a love for pop structures, came some very interesting compositions. The music is free spirited and loaded with musical and lyrical conviction, with memorable hooks and interesting twists.

SoundClick artist Extra presents "Carousel", an outstanding release in the Alternative genre. The production choices feel intentional, giving the track a distinct character. The kind of alternative track that draws you in and holds your attention through to the end Extra continues to build an Alternative catalog on SoundClick, one of the longest-running platforms for independent artists.

Story behind the song

this song was written about a friend who overdosed on drugs, and the rehabilitating counsel that I tried to give him before he passed away.

Lyrics

So you're leavin' on a northbound trip 
Just south of nowhere 
You said you gotta get away 
From this cold, cold world you've made 
You said it's alright 
But sister it ain't right with me 
You said it's alright 
Oh sister, why can't you see 

You're locked in your room 
With your needle and spoon 
Your world is turning upside down 
Your head is spinning 'round and 'round 

Mary you go 'round 
Ride the horse that takes you up and down and down 
Living on a carousel 
I hear that you don't fare so well 
You see there comes a time to pay the price 
No one ever rides for for free 

You said you want to leave this state of mind 
So I left you at the station 
You're gonna need another dime 
Just to reach your destination
