about

A version of the Billie Eilish song 'Ocean Eyes' featuring lead vocals from Ceev. You can check out more of her stuff here: ceev.bandcamp.com/releases

I first heard Ocean Eyes playing on the speakers of some bar, tried to shazam it but my phone was dead. Later found out what it was and decided it would be a great song to cover. I thought it was a relatively unknown song until I looked it up on YouTube and realised it had like millions of hits. I live under a rock.

Some time later I sketched out a rough version of the song, not straying too far from the original. I found that the talkbox wasn't enough and started looking for a female vocal to go on the track. Thankfully CeeV was up for it and she did an amazing job taking the song to a level I couldn't quite reach by myself.

Thanks again CeeV!

lyrics

I've been watchin' you for some time
Can't stop starin' at those ocean eyes
Burning cities and napalm skies
Fifteen flares inside those ocean eyes
Your ocean eyes

No fair
You really know how to make me cry
When you gimme those ocean eyes
I'm scared
I've never fallen from quite this high
Fallin' into your ocean eyes
Those ocean eyes

I've been walkin' through a world gone blind
Can't stop thinkin' of your diamond mind
Careful creature made friends with time
He left her lonely with a diamond mind
And those ocean eyes

No fair
You really know how to make me cry
When you gimme those ocean eyes
I'm scared
I've never fallen from quite this high
Fallin' into your ocean eyes
Those ocean eyes

Kelp Belfast, UK

Presenting the misadventures of a miniature deep-sea diver fishbowl figurine.

I don't know that there's room in music for a lounge act fronted by an inch high, ethereal deep sea diver with a preoccupation for vocoders and additive synthesis; but if there is, I intend to fill it with the gaudiest of cutting edge Vaporwave elevator-jingles. ... more
