Butterfly Polite’s Little Bit Of Blog

Eyes Tight Shut c/w R.E.S.P.E.C.T.E.T.C. is the second in the year of ButterflyPolite singles.

…and is available here for the princely some of one english pound.  (a.k.a. £1)

Eyes tight shut has been a live favourite for a while - and always causes some embarrassment with it’s awkward ‘U’ sound in the title for Andy to try to introduce, yet try not to sound ‘common’.  The eloqution lessons are not paying off, but fortunately he is spared that ignominy here, and the song can be enjoyed in a new studio recording.

R.E.S.P.E.C.T.E.T.C. is presented here at it’s delicate live acoustic best - in startling contrast to the version on The Mess We Made album.  Sarah’s beautiful voice is naked and exposed through this song, against just an acoustic guitar and sending shivers up the spine with each syllable.  Then, at the last moment, the rest of ButterflyPolite join in at their finger-in-ear beach-boys-harmony best.

Head over to the music page to have a listen.  Don’t forget last month’s single (If You Repeat / Unnatural Selection), and remember to head back next month for November’s offerings!

This has actually clocked in about 2 hours before the 19th October release date.  Woo hoo!
