This track is a love song to community, share housing, squatting, art spaces and the people who make these places a reality.

Angie,Tini, David, Jovanka, Linsey, Luc, Nastya, Paul, Pauline, Saskia, Silke, Sofie, Zola and Corien for your time, love, energy and presence on the day of the video shoot.
Thankyou to Debbie (Kane's Mum) for choreographing the dances for the choruses. It was so fun to learn and do.
An extra big thankyou to:
Lonneke and Fabian for graciously allowing us to use your house for the entire day of the video shoot and the night before setting it up and helping us run the show smoothly and your time, love, energy and presence on the day of the video shoot. And to Thijs for allowing us to use his camera and for being there the whole day filming the shoot.
You can hear all these beautiful people's voices at the end of the track.
The day itself was a perfect reminder of why we wrote this song, hanging out with people we love making things that we like. Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou all. This song is for you.
lyrics
Home made half pipe. Grape vine LED light.
Good friends start bands. Fridge full of bin wine.
Couch talk, throw dice, dinnertime (share rice).
Light work - many hands, everybody shine!
Neighbour's at the door with a case
- always koffie in the can
Finger painting on your face
Putting fire in your plan
Sewing patterns to your clothes
Building palaces of sand
Getting washed away but even so I hope they
KNOW,
that this bright
GLOW,
it grows where we
GO,
it grows where we
GO
Damacles dead line [dog eat dog time]
black mould / rent raised
house call / ambush
time bomb romance,
paranoid side glance
neverending grey maze, everybody shhh! (shhh!)
Suit is at the door with a notice
I am on the floor in a ball feeling hopeless
I am just a fly on a wall getting bulldozed
Even though I feel so small as the last brick falls i'll
know,
that this bright
glow,
it grows where we
go,
it grows where we
go
