about

This is the first track we wrote for this album, way back in 2003.

lyrics

This morning I chose
Not to snooze not to doze
Just woke up and rose
Took a stretch
Touched my toes
You Day

And then half an hour later
With the edge of my hand
I was slicing up mountains
Reforming them to land
You Day

Beautiful is, my friend of friends
Beautiful is, my friend of friends
Step aside and leave me to die
Step aside and leave me to die

Now I’m not intelligent
I’m not even smart
I know what I’m on about
What I’m on about is art
You Day

And then half and hour later
With the palm of my hand
I was holding aircraft
And forcing them to land
You Day

Beautiful is, my friend of friends
Beautiful is, my friend of friends
Step aside and leave me to die
Step aside and leave me to die

Take the credit for what you do
And now what you buy
Step aside
And leave me to die
Now

about

Art Making Animals Leeds, UK

Art Making Animals are Ben Denison and Mark Parrini.

We started “making noise with friends” over 20 years ago with a plan to write an album one song a year.

20 years of friendship later we have finally finished what we started.

Art Making Animals is about the joy of making music with close and trusted friends, and what a joy it has been.

And if listening is love, we can’t thank you enough. ... more

FEEL
by Hope and Social

supported by 13 fans who also own “You Day”

The more I listen to this, the better it gets. The music is deep, wide and diverse; the phrasing and feel of the singing is refreshing, heartfelt and heartwarming; the lyrics are filled with hope anger and humour and most of all the occasional Yorkshire, flattened vowels are to die for. This is home from home, to home. You need no other reason to be of Yorkshire, of, from and for Leeds. Tony Walker
