Crank’ is a soaring catchy post-grunge/altrock track set in today’s (almost) post COVID world. It’s about folks who think they’re always ill with every little cold, cough, headache, something serious etc.
Ollie got the lyrical idea after reflecting on how he sometimes feels when he faces mental and physical health headwinds from colds to coughs to herniated discs and tinnitus!
The layered guitars and choruses build up throughout ‘Crank’ to end in a crescendo of an outro. Sing, shout, air drum or air guitar along ‘Craaaannnnk’!
There were absolutely no musical reference points when in the studio.
lyrics
Wrecked my throat
My aching bones
I’m going cold
Leave me alone
Crank! I feel so...
Wrecked my mind
My wounds are deep
I’m feeling flat
Leave me sleep
Crank! I feel so...
Wrecked my back
My ringing ears
I’m falling down
Leave me moan
Crank! I feel so...
Wrecked my back
My ringing ears
I’m falling down
Leave me moan
