about

Jen Charlton, an itinerate Canadian, has teamed up with French producer Yves Galula to create the freshest crop of songs anyone's heard in a while. The music speaks of 1960's-70's New York and Montreal – with just the right mix of gloom and sunshine.

lyrics

I feel like there’s a hinge I have to take out
And move it to the left and shake it all about
I’m pinned somewhere it’s hard to see
You can blame it on my mom, you can blame it on my dad
You can blame it on my family
I keep waiting for that part in the movie
Where everything’s ok and my problems
Just go away

Here I am again with my coffee
And a list as long as my arm
I can’t even remember what I came here for
It seems so long and gone
I keep waiting for that part in the movie
Where everything’s ok and my problems
Just go away

Jesus and Buddha said there was no
Special incantation for happiness
But if I had a formula – I’d put it in a bottle
And sell it for a tenner a box
I keep waiting for that part in the movie
Where everything’s ok and my problems
Just go away
