about

The Badloves continue to build on their legacy as they announce the arrival of their brand new single, ‘Tribal’.

The song was inspired by one of Michael Spiby’s recurring dreams.
Spiby explains – “I don’t usually remember dreams, they’re so hard to catch. But often enough I wake up disturbed by this one recurring theme…how will I keep my little tribe together in tough times, am I up to the task? ‘Tribal’ is my recurring dream, caught in the light of day”

lyrics

Tribal Copyright M.Spiby 2017

Gather ‘round
We shall ride, we shall ride
Stripped back to the bone
Stripped back without a stone
To set against the rising tide
We carry nothing but our pride

It’s tribal,
Sure as there’s blood runnin’ through my veins
Prepare my arrival
High on a breeze
There’s a wild eyed bird of prey
Diving deeper, deeper
I could not sleep, unsure
Unsure, I will have what I came for

We cast our fear
To the fire, to the fire
Now that flame has blown
I see how the wind has grown
You’d better hide the horses well
Or cut them free and raise the bell

It’s Tribal,
Sure as the blood rushin’ through my veins
Love is primal
High on the breeze
There’s a wild eyed bird of prey
Diving deeper, deeper
I could not sleep, unsure
Unsure, it’s you that I came for

Right there in front of me,
Stretching out like some
Unfinished symphony
Where I am bound to you and you to me
Yeah I, will make it right
I will take my place with you this night

This night, love is raw, love is pure primal
This night, love is raw, love is pure primal
Love is pure primal
