    That's not a CD. THIS is a CD! While streaming services may have led us to smashing up our old CDs to make wearable art (guilty), there is still something exciting about holding a physical copy in your hand. Resplendent with a glossy protective case, detailed liner notes and a keepsake insert featuring lyrics and behind-the-scenes photos, the 'Watch Your Soul' CD should go straight to the trophy room. This limited edition CD features a special unreleased version of 'It's Time', recorded with the original Duxie Franklin band in Hobart, Tasmania. It's quirkier, boppier and more playful than the brooding, mischievous single version that debuted on The Soundcheck in March, 2020. Which will be your favourite?

Have you heard of the ocean city? More than six feet under When the wild sea is raging above The city slumbers below Have you heard of the ocean city? Buried by an ancient tide Can you hear the city bells? Calling to me oh they’re calling I’m destined for the deep I’m going down to ocean city Got a feeling in my belly it’s gonna be so pretty I’m going down to ocean city Got lead in my lungs I’m gonna sink so quickly In the deep it’s easy to hide Drifting between dead ends Monsters lurk in sunken ships With teeth that’ll give you the bends I’m destined for the deep I’m going down to ocean city Got a feeling in my belly it’s gonna be so pretty I’m going down to ocean city Got lead in my lungs I’m gonna sink so quickly Those rusted green gates are gonna swallow me whole With my greedy heart and my needy soul In the city of the sea I’m gonna burn down to coal I’m destined for the deep I’m going down to ocean city Got a feeling in my belly it’s gonna be so pretty I’m going down to ocean city Most folks never see it, oh what a pity

Life is a hand in a pocket In a jacket that you don’t own Like a feather in a dust storm Life is a short-term loan Life is a stone that you cannot throw No matter how good your aim Take it or leave it consider it done Life is a lonely throne Ooh Aah Life is a disregarded detour sign In a ditch by the side of the road Learn from the bird who’s long since flown To look at life on Mars Life is a seed that you cannot sow No matter how deep you dig First place or second it’s just a bit of fun Show me the long way home Ooh Aah
