You Will Struggle

from Age of Anxiety by Rodney Cromwell

/
  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    "Sounds like liquid gold. Age of Anxiety has renewed my faith in the digital age of electro pop" Malcolm Holmes (OMD)

    “Rodney Cromwell’s music belongs to the future. This quirky synth-pop is the sound of industrious robots and the modified toy orchestra hanging out at Argos, and songs like Barry was an Arms Dealer see Cromwell’s offbeat wit shine brightly” NME

    “Rodders joyous debut album, ‘Age of Anxiety,’... choice cuts include the frantic mode Mode-like ‘One Two Seven’ the magnificent, early New Order-ish ‘Black Dog’ and the Kraftwerkian ‘Barry Was An Arms Dealer’, not that Dusseldorf’s finest ever had a song title that good” Electronic Sound Magazine

    “A genuinely excellent album. It’s clever, it’s full of songs that instantly burrow into your head and, like all good pop albums, the majority of songs here could be singles in their own right” 8/10 XS Noize

    Comes shrink wrapped in an environmentally friendly plastic-saving cardboard sleeve designed by Matt Ashton with a free Happy Robots badge.

    Includes unlimited streaming of Age of Anxiety via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

I went looking for love,
Bare my soul for the world to see
Made a pact with the Gods,
And the laws of relativity

Maybe if you looked after yourself,
Went to the gym, thought of yourself,
A change of clothes, something you need
Sort out your hair, it's tragic indeed;
Tragic indeed.

There's someone out there for everyone
For the sad and lonely
For the desperate and fussy
And the birds and the bees
There's someone out there for everyone
Moving from heartbreak to agony.

Seven billion or more,
People walk on the earth today.
I can hope and implore,
Just one might look my way

Sorry to say, that you're not my type
You seem pretty nice but your face isn't right
You will struggle, to find a wife
No shame on being alone all your life.
Alone all your life.

There's someone out there for everyone
For the sad and lonely
For the desperate and fussy
And the birds and the bees
There's someone out there for everyone
Moving from heartbreak to agony
